No.4 SUMMER, 1951 School Notes THE PAST YEAR The school year that we chronicle in this issue of our magazine has been a period of very mixed weather, the fading warmth of a none too pleasant summer succeeded by an early autumn, a protracted winter and a dilatory spring. As we pack up our books, write our final examination lines and prepare to enjoy a long holiday, the sun is beginning to peep out, chiefly in the late afternoons, to give us hope of pleasant leisure and promise of recuperated energy for the tasks ahead. We have enjoyed a year of success in health and games and work. Attendances have been consistently high, absences through illness remark­ .ably low. Work towards the new General Certificate of Education has been full and thorough and Scholarship successes in the Sixth gratifyingly rich. The Gymnasium, vaulting horses and ropes tidied away, has seen the concentrated frowns of seventy-two boys taking the Ordinary Certificate. The New Library has been busy with the frenzied of twenty-nine seniors attempting the Advanced CertifiGJte with deserved reward. Even the old Library has witnessed the efforts of If" thirty-nine boys, too young (some so very slightly too young) to take t},e Ordinary Certificate. They have had the doubtful and procrastinated pleasure of tackling the set papers a day later. No doubt they will do brilliantly, Apart from the human element, the most important part of any school, there has been progress in the material field. The New Library, constructed as an annexe to the old one in memory of our dead in two wars, has been fitted with handsome bookcases and furnished with polished tables and chairs. St. Bede's will ever be grateful to the Old Boys and friends whose venerous contributions made this Memorial Library a lasting reminder of -" ~he Old Boys who gave their lives. The library has dignity and calm and books-but there could be more books. If every Old Boy who felt he has gained something from the school, if every boy leaving each year, would give a donation towards the purchase of books, St. Bede's would soon possess a library of real distinction and value. In another way also we have observed growth. Since the foundations ofthe New Wing were first dug in persistent and trench-fining rain, the work has progressed with skill and speed-fascinating to every passing observer on the bus and absorbing to hundreds of faces peering from passage windows between classes or from class-windows between passages-of English. Latin or what you will. Concrete bedding, brick foundation, inner walls, stone-facing-the New Wing was first seen in plan, then like a child's toy, finally mounting into shape and harmony. We are very happy and deeply 2 ~ ST. BEDE'S MAGAZINE 3 grateful to be able to report that out of the £37,000 necessary a good pro­ portion has· already. been contributed or promised by generous benefactors of Catholic education. We produce this number of the magazine during a time of national . celebration. As Catholics' we know the true meaning of festival, which is not a time of mere enjoyment or brash advertisement. The Festival of Britain celebrates a tradition, remembers the past, displays the present and looks forward to the future. St. Bede'sadds its contribution by showing its part in the educational life of its city and its country. Work in a school is not merely a classroom affair, so we aim to give our readers some idea of wider activities and some news of other places where those who have left us carryon their studies, pursue their tasks or enjoy their holidays. In our last issue, the Jubilee Magazine, we looked back on fifty years of growth. In this, a Festival Magazine, we look forward to the next half­ century of progress. E. * * * SEPTEMBER On the 11th, 140 new boys arrived fresh and eager to start the term. Next day the rest of the schgol arrived tired and eager to finish it. The number of boys in the school is still increasing. Our present total is 730. We welcomed two new members to the staff, Mr. B. McShee, B.A., an Old Boy of the School, and Mr. Harrison, B.Sc., who was with us for only a short time. Mr. R. Elwood, B.A., made a welcome return after a year in Leeds. OCTOBER As the feast of St. Teresa did not fall on a school day, we were unable to celebrate it in the usual manner. It was with great regret that we heard of the death of John Chambers of Form 2. The funeral at St. Patrick's was attended by members of his class, the prefects, and the staff. May he rest in peace. All who have been associated with the school 'will have heard with deep regret of the deathS of two former members of the staff at St. Bede's, Mr. G. Wilson and Mr. H. Elgie. A Solemn Requiem was held at the school, shortly after their burial, since all the school were unable to attend the funerals. Appreciations of these faithful servants of the school will be found, elsewhere in this issue. In affectionate memory of them, the Old Boys' Association has made a gift of two kneelers for use in the School Chapel. The kneelers were designed and built in the school workshop to the specification of the Old Boys' Committee. Constructed in select Japanese oak, and each capable of kneeling four people, they bear silver plates, suitably engraved and asking for ptayers for' the souls of the two masters. , ' -The construction of the neW' wing is now well under way, and a good 'I idea of the final shape of the building, which will ease the present congestion, ,c>n,~, Obtainod~",> 're II"";' ".r,*,4t¥;S'~11 4 ST. BEDE'S MAGAZINE We welcomed the fresh presence of the student teachers who came to do their teaching practice with us, and wish them every success in their future careers. NOVEMBER The death of Mr. Edward J. Fattorini, a former governor and bene­ factor of the school, gave all who knew him a sense of personal loss. RJ.P. D.ECEMBER As usual at this time of the year, the senior members of the school :gave their valuable assistance to the G.P.O. in their annual struggle with the Christmas Mail. We acknowledge a courteous message of thanks from the Postmaster of Bradford. JANUARY, 1951 We returned to school on the 8th after a white and most enjoyable Christmas. The second annual re-union dinner for all Old Boys resident in London was held on Tuesday, 31st January, at the Knights of St. Columba Resi­ dential Club. Alderman S. Briggs presided at the function and Mgr. C. Tindall was present to greet his former pupils. As the feast of St. Blaise fell on a Saturday we could not hold the customary blessing of the throat at school, but we honoured the occasion by long play later in the week. After the mid-term break, we returned for the distribution of Asliies on Ash Wednesday. The close of the term was marked by the annual retreat, conducced by Fr. Bannon for the Seniors and Fr. Roddy for the Juniors. We extend our thanks to those priests from the Bradford parishes who assisted as confessors and so made possible the general Confession and Communion. MARCH Shocking weather; least said the better. Much work indoors: little play outside. APRIL We congratulate Brian Cook of Form VI on obtaining an Open Scholar­ ship to Manchester University. On the 25th we were honoured by the visit of the newly-appointed Bishop of Leeds, the Right Rev. Mgr. Heenan, D.D. A report of his visit will be found elsewhere in the magazine. MAY After vain hopes that the rain would stop, the school sports had to be cancelled. No sooner had the word gone round the school than out came the sun and the beautiful afternoon filled all of us wid} restlessness. The sports were held on the morning of Ascension Thursday. We thank all those competitors and masters who attended. ST. BEDE'S MAGAZINE 5 We congratulate Bernard Keegan, Brian Cook and Edward Sullivan who obtained "Edgar Allen" scholarships to Sheffield. The scholarships, worth £100 each, are the highest awarded by Sheffield. Three of our boys were picked to play for Bradford Boys' Football team against a Glasgow team. They are Rock, Rowbottom and Stoken. Although the Scots again proved their superiority, we read that St. Bede's boys played their part well in a good game. In the Inter-High School sports, St. Bede's came second. We con­ gratulate Carlton on winning. Again the inclement weather marred the fun enjoyment of the day. The Holy Father has appointed the former Lord Mayor of Leeds and an Old Boy of the School, Alderman F. H. O'Donnell, a Knight Commander of the Order of St.

  • Michael Costigan*
    VATICAN II AS I EXPERIENCED IT Michael Costigan* A memorable Roman autumn Autumn is an enchanting time in Rome. By October the relentless heat of July and August, from which many of the Romans themselves flee, is only an uncomfortable memory. The days are shorter, often blessed by cloudless skies, with mild sunshine enhancing the golden glow of some of the ancient and modern buildings, especially in the late afternoon. The Romans, including the Pope and his court, have returned, the number of tourists has declined, the schools and universities are open for business and hot roasted chestnuts are on sale at street corners – or used to be in my day. After living through nine Roman autumns as a seminarian and student- priest between 1952 and 1961, I welcomed the chance in 1963 to experience one more of those magical seasons, probably my last and certainly the most memorable of all. I was there that year for the second of the four autumnal sessions of the Second Vatican Council, as a priest-reporter commissioned to cover the event for the Melbourne Catholic Advocate, of which I was the Associate Editor, as well as for three other Australian Catholic weekly newspapers. With the Australian Catholic Historical Society marking the 50th anniversary this year of the opening of Vatican II by making that event the theme of several of the monthly papers scheduled for 2012, the Society’s President suggested I help to set the scene by painting a picture of what it was actually like to be at the Council. My writings and diary My memory of the 77 days I spent in Rome during that autumn is aided by the voluminous reports I mailed back to Australia and by a pamphlet subsequently published by the Australian Catholic Truth Society with the title Vatican Council Survey, in which I summarised those reports.1 In addition, I kept a rough diary in an exercise book in which, usually before retiring late at night, I noted my daily activities in and around the Council.

No issue had appeared in 1973, and none has been forthcoming since. It seems of little use to spend time lamenting this fact. It is true that life in the College today is very full and busy. Activities for which abundant energy and enthusiasm were once readily available have now to compete with much else, and do not always seem to make good a claim that tradition might seem to warrant. At a deeper level the College, with the Church as a whole, has passed through a period of uncertainty and perhaps lack of self-confidence, of ,which the absence of issues of the Venerabile may have been a symptom. Hopefully we are now in calmer and more settled times, and the College owes a debt of gratitude, perhaps greater than is at present realised, to the staff and students who brought the College intact and healthy through that period of difficult change.

Twelve days earlier, Pope Paul VI had signed the Apostolic Constitution in which he approved and imposed the new ritual of the ordination of deacon, priest, and bishop. In this book the author examines the new rite of ordination to the priesthood and exposes its differences with the former one used in the Roman rite for a number of centuries, enjoying the highest authority.

  • Evelyn Waugh Newsletter and Stud
    EVELYN WAUGH NEWSLETTER AND STUD EVELYN WAUGH NEWSLETTER AND STUDIES Vol. 39, No. 2 Autumn 2008 Evelyn Waugh and Anthony Burgess: Some Parallels as Catholic Writers by John J. Stinson SUNY Fredonia A brief essay of mine on the affinities between Evelyn Waugh and Anthony Burgess was published in this newsletter in 1976 (Vol. 10, No. 3: 11-12). Obviously, much has happened between then and now. Burgess died of lung cancer in London in November 1993, age 76, the author of some sixty-five to sixty-nine books, depending on how one counts. Auberon Waugh was one of two eulogists (the other being the novelist William Boyd) at a memorial service held at St. Paul’s (Anglican) Church, Covent Garden (the “Actors’ Church”). Auberon Waugh himself died in 2001; Graham Greene had passed in 1991. When Muriel Spark died in 2006, all four of the major English (Roman) Catholic novelists of the mid-to-late twentieth century were gone. Interestingly, only one, Burgess, was a “cradle Catholic.” This he often cited as a matter of pride, along with the claim that his was a recusant family who had successfully resisted Protestant conversion in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Burgess identified himself as a traditional but also non-practicing Catholic. The “traditional Catholic” writer classification allies the two men in the public mind and was undoubtedly one of the reasons Burgess was drawn to Waugh’s writing. His only quarrel with Waugh’s brand of Catholicism had to do with the way Waugh characteristically represented it in association with the English aristocracy.
