H. CATLIN. SuB-EDITORs: A. J. HOLLAND, R. J. A. ABRAHAM. VoL. XXVIII. No . 6. FEBRUARY, 1957. Editorial HE Editorial of a magazine has in past centuries often been the place T where the Editor took the chance of explaining to readers what an excellent Magazine they were about to read. Here we do not wish to do only this, but to thank all our contributors for their work, without which the Magazine would obviously not appear. We would also like to re­ mind any would-be writers of original compositions, either verse or prose, that although it is not usual to publish original works in the Michaelmas Term, it is never too soon to start thinking of a contribution to the Lent and Summer issue. Since this is the only chance the Editors have of expressing their Printed by tM Somerset County Gazette views or commenting on the life of the School, we would like to say how Castle Green - Taunton pleased we are that work has now begun on the new Science Preparation 13-100 Rooms, which will complete the alterations to the East Wing of the School. It is also with great pleasure that we announce that the first twelve loans for the Science Block have been repaid. Finally, we should like to thank R. C. Poulton and J. G. Lobb for all the work they have done whilst on the Editorial Board. We wish to renew their appeal for letters to the Editors, which are always welc.ome, and used to be a popular feature in the Aluredian. THE EDITORS. School Notes T is with regret that we have to record the departure of Mr. Large at I the end of the Michaelmas Term. He has made a great contribution to the musical life of the School; not the least among his achievements being his nurturing of a flourishing Choral Society, the foundations of a promising young orchestra, and the training of one of the best school choirs in the county. He has also been Housemaster of Woodard House since Michaelmas, 1950. We wish him all good fortune in his new post as organist and choirmaster of All Saints, Leamington, a church renowned for its music. On the other hand, we should like to welcome .warmly our new Director of Music, Mr. Tyler, until recently assistant organist at Canterbury Cathedral; we wish him every success and happiness at King's. Mr. Large kindly gave us a farewell piano recital on 18th Novem­ ber, which was most popular, even among the non-musical members of the School. His repertoire included items by composers as far afield as Brahms and Alec Templeton. 3 THE ALUREDIAN THE ALUREDIAN A public concert was held on 6th December, at which many guests Some excerpts from the film made by the Rover Crew and others were present.

THE facilities provided today by the National Blood Transfusion Service make it difficult to appreciate the trouble a transfusion entailed less than twenty-five years ago. Probably the greatest single factor responsible for the change was the Army Transfusion Service, developed during the last war. The inspiration and organizing genius behind this pioneer service, which has teen taken as a pattern by so many others since, was Brigadier Sir Lionel Whitby, whose death occurred on November 24th, 1956, after an operation, at the age of 61. By his death the Army has lost one of its most eminent Honorary Consultants and a staunch friend. Lionel Ernest Howard Whitby was born on May 8th, 1895, and was educated at Bromsgrove School and Downing College, Cambridge. He had won an open scholarship but before taking it up, joined the Royal Fusiliers on the outbreak . of the First World War. The following year he was commissioned in the Royal guest.

In 1918, when a machine-gun officer with the rank of Major, he was severely wounded and had a leg amputated near the hip. After his recovery he studied medicine at Cambridge and at the Middlesex Hospital where he was a scholar and a prizeman, qualifying in 1923.

Vicar of Buckland Dinham, Member of the British Ornitho- logists' Union, and one of the authors of" The Birds of DevonT WHEN Mr. Cecil Smith published his Birds of Somerset, in 1869, he was able to record but 217 species, to which he subsequently added ten others in a list contributed by him to Vol. xvi of the Transactions of the Somerset Archaaological and Natural History Society (for 1870), thus bringing the total number of birds for Somerset to 227. But even this number appears inadequate to repre- sent the Ornis of so large a county as Somerset, when it is compared with the lists which have been made out for the adjoining counties. Thus for Wiltshire, a county which comes far behind Somerset in geographical importance, as it possesses no coast line, the Rev. A. Smith was able to . C. enumerate 235 species ; in Dorsetshire, Col. Mansel-Pleydell, as was to be expected, had a fuller list, numbering 254 species, to which we are able to add three others, thus bringing the Dorsetshire county birds to a total of 257 ; while for Devon- shire, which has a sea frontage both on the north and south, as many as 300 species can be claimed.

Mr. Elton considered that in any such work care should be taken to separate or mark the different periods. Within the last few years there had been extensive discoveries of the remains of the neolithic men. There had been some in his own district. The Committees should be instructed to mark and distinguish, not only the Roman, but also neolithic and paleolithic remains. Professor Boyd Dawkins called attention to a map pub- lished by the International Congress of Prehistoric Archaeo- logists. In this map most valuable details were given, the information being conveyed by a series of symbols. He considered it the best map of its kind, and knew of nothing similar at all comparable with it. The plan was accepted. ®hc fresidijttt's Jtdtes.
