Sewell W. R. Orton B. K. Tanner B. Bellamy. We welcome to the staff this term Messrs. T. D. Norman, M. J. Parkin, P. J. Warren and C. J. Cox. We hope that they will be happy here. We congratulate Messrs. P. H. Templar, A. J. B. Tussler, R. Bentley and A. J. L. Alden on their marriages and wish them happiness. It is with regret that we learn that Mr. J. P. Hyde has decided to give up active participation in Rugby. He will no longer be seen in the Saints' or East Midlands' teams. There were many tributes to him in the local and national press. Like another old boy of the school, Mr. D. J. White, Mr. Hyde played for England. Mr. G. T. Ridge has been elected a Councillor on the Welling- borough U.D.C. We congratulate him on his appointment. N. 1. Palmer finished second in the final of the 440 yards (15-17 years) All England Schools' Championships in the time of 51 seconds. Henson (Capt.), A. J. W. COX, and 1. G. Gillett played for Northants. U-15 Cricket XI. Henson and Cox went on to play for the Midland Counties v. The North, at Market Harborough, thereby qualifying for an England Schools' Cricket Cap. The school was presented with a cup for the best individual performance in the U-15 group, for Henson's 105 versus Buckinghamshire-the first century in this group since its inception. Mason, Dobbs and Parker were selected to play for the County Senior XV against Warwickshire and Greater Birmingham. Hillier, Leeson, Toseland, Pine, Drew, P. Hale and B. Barren will represent the County Under 15 XV v. Gloucestershire, at Northampton. The school is grateful to Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Foakes and to Mrs. R. Aiderson for their generous gifts to the Amenities Fund on the occasion of their sons leaving school. The school also thanks Dr. T. Murray Strang and Mr. & Mrs. E. Cole for their kind gifts of books to the Library. P. D. S. White who gained an open exhibition in Physics to Pembroke College, Oxford, in 1961, has now been awarded a Domus Scholarship by the College. This is a special award for work of outstanding merit. He is also coxing the College 2nd Eight. At the invitation of Sir Lawrence Bragg, a party from the Sixth Science attended a lecture at the Royal Institution by Professor R. King of the Institution of Metallurgists. I. K. Reid, who recently obtained his degree in Russian at Birmingham University, has been awarded one of the twenty Travel Scholarships given nationally by the Ministry and is now studying Russian at Moscow University. R. C. Adkins has been awarded the Nigel Norman Research Scholarship of the British Society of Aero-Constructors. David Frost is having considerable success as compere of the new B.B.C. show, "That was the Week that was". The plans for the new buildings are now complete and it is expected that a start will be made before the end of March, 1963. We wish gratefully to acknowledge the receipt of magazines from other schools.
