(Denis Gem) Shepstone 319 FOREWORD I am honoured, in my extreme old age, to be asked to write a brief foreword to this history of the Natal University College. My own association with the college began in 1945, when I assumed the post of Professor of English and head of that department. It was a time of urgent challenges, from the sudden increase of student numbers caused by returning war veterans, from the growing needs of African and Indian students in Durban, and from limited funding and staffing. Along with other members of the department I found myself working very long hours both during the week, and at weekends, in both Pietermaritzburg and Durban. There was a spirit of hope and enthusiasm; the very scale of the challenge engaged our energies, under the inspiring leadership of E.G. Malherbe, whose appointment as Vice-Chancellor coincided with my own as professor. Prejudices and racial divisions were still embedded in the academic struc- ture, a constant threat to the free play of intellect; but among those of us who worked in the college at that time there was a heartening spirit of goodwill and a strong hope for the future. I am proud to have been a part of that endeavour. Geoffrey Durrant Richmond, British Columbia, July 2013 [Professor Durrant celebrated his 100th birthday on 27 July 2013] ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to the staff of the Alan Paton Centre and the University of KwaZulu-Natal Archives (Pietermaritzburg campus), the Killie Campbell Museum Library (Durban) and the Durban and Pietermaritzburg Archives Repositories for assisting me in locating relevant research material. I am grateful to all those persons listed in the bibliography who shared with me their reminiscences concerning some of the Natal University College staff members who are mentioned in this book. As on previous occasions, I am hugely indebted to my wife, Cynthia, for tolerating yet another extended research enthusiasm and for contributing her computer expertise towards its completion. My interest in the history of the Natal University College and its successor the University of Natal began one broiling summer morning in February 1959. I was in a ‘Freshers’ registration queue that snaked its way up the steps in front of Howard College Building and around the statue of King George V which stared impassively over our heads at Durban harbour. The Principal, E.G. Malherbe, delivered his welcoming address in the Hall, supported by an impressive cohort of staff in full academic garb. One senior member who caught my eye was dressed in a pin-striped suit with bulbous toes staring balefully over the edge of the stage from a pair of casual sandals. Marvellous! I had already heard about eccentric, absent-minded professors, little realising that I was embarking on a journey that would eventually lead me into their ranks (without the pin-striped suit and sandals!). My student years (1959–1962) on the Stella Bush Ridge included lectures in temporary structures that had been erected during World War II with Roman- Dutch Law classes and end-of-year examinations conducted in the noisy downtown City Buildings, which, as the name might imply, were beleaguered by street traffic. This was followed by a temporary lectureship (1963) that provided some acquaintance with the University’s more sedate ‘other campus’ inland and eventual tenure in Durban (1967–1976) and Pietermaritzburg (1977–2000). The extended experience nurtured a gradual familiarity with the complex dual-centred, racially

  • Mounted Troops in Zululand Brian M
    Mounted Troops in Zululand Brian M. Best ____________________________________________________________________________________________ With Britain’s attention taken up with the events in Afghanistan during 1878, the War Office concentrated all available Imperial regiments on the North West Frontier. These naturally included units of cavalry sent to act as the eyes for the huge columns that began their advance during November. At the same time in South Africa, unbeknown to the British Government, Sir Bartle Frere, the High Commissioner, and Lord Chelmsford, the Army Commander, was preparing to invade Zululand. Chelmsford was relying on the Imperial regiments with which he had successfully defeated the Gaikas and Gcalekas during the recent Frontier War. These were infantry battalions only, for there were no cavalry stationed in South Africa. In order to fill this gap, volunteers were taken from the 3rd, 13th, 24th, 80th and 90th Regiments and formed into two squadrons of Mounted Infantry with a total strength of 300 men. Many of these men were generally experienced with horses from their former civilian occupations, having been grooms, ostlers etc. Others, however, were not and it took sometime to train these would-be cavalrymen. Once proficient, the Mounted Infantry acquitted themselves very well. The men were dressed as normal infantrymen, except that they wore cord breeches and calf-length leather gaiters. Instead of pouches, they carried their ammunition in bandoliers draped across the chest. Unlike other mounted troops, the mounted infantrymen were armed with a Martini-Henry rifle instead of the shorter carbine. For the officers, the transition was an easy one as they were all mounted as a matter of course.

  • Throughout the 1950S the Liberal Party of South Africa Suffered Severe Internal Conflict Over Basic Issues of Policy and Strategy
    Throughout the 1950s the Liberal Party of South Africa suffered severe internal conflict over basic issues of policy and strategy. On one level this stemmed from the internal dynamics of a small party unequally divided between the Cape, Transvaal and Natal, in terms of membership, racial composftion and political traditon. This paper and the larger work from which it is taken , however, argue inter alia that the conflict stemmed to a greater degree from a more fundamental problem, namely differing interpretations of liberalism and thus of the role of South African liberals held by various elements within the Liberal Party (LP). This paper analyses the political creed of those parliamentary and other liberals who became the early leaders of the LP. Their standpoint developed in specific circumstances during the period 1947-1950, and reflected opposition to increasingly radical black political opinion and activity, and retreat before the unfolding of apartheid after 1948. This particular brand of liberalism was marked by a rejection of extra- parliamentary activity, by a complete rejection of the univensal franchise, and by anti-communism - the negative cgaracteristics of the early LP, but also the areas of most conflict within the party. The liberals under study - including the Ballingers, Donald Molteno, Leo Marquard, and others - were all prominent figures. All became early leaders of the Liberal Party in 1953, but had to be *Ihijackedffigto the LP by having their names published in advance of the party being launched. The strategic prejudices of a small group of parliamentarians, developed in the 1940s, were thus to a large degree grafted on to non-racial opposition politics in the 1950s through an alliance with a younger generation of anti-Nationalists in the LP.

  • MEMORY of the WORLD REGISTER the Wizard of Oz
    MEMORY OF THE WORLD REGISTER The Wizard of Oz (Victor Fleming 1939), produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer REF N° 2006-10 PART A – ESSENTIAL INFORMATION 1 SUMMARY In 1939, as the world fell into the chaos of war, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer released a film that espoused kindness, charity, friendship, courage, fortitude, love and generosity. It was dedicated to the “young, and the young in heart” and today it remains one of the most beloved works of cinema, embraced by audiences of all ages throughout the world. It is one of the most widely seen and influential films in all of cinema history. The Wizard of Oz (1939) has become a true cinema classic, one that resonates with hope and love every time Dorothy Gale (the inimitable Judy Garland in her signature screen performance) wistfully sings “Over the Rainbow” as she yearns for a place where “troubles melt like lemon drops” and the sky is always blue. George Eastman House takes pride in nominating The Wizard of Oz for inclusion in the Memory of the World Register because as custodian of the original Technicolor 3-strip nitrate negatives and the black and white sequences preservation negatives and soundtrack, the Museum has conserved these precious artefacts, thus ensuring the survival of this film for future generations. Working in partnership with the current legal owner, Warner Bros., the Museum has made it possible for this beloved film classic to continue to enchant and delight audiences. The original YCM negatives have been conserved at the Museum since 1975, and Warner Bros. recently completed our holdings of the film by assigning the best surviving preservation elements of the opening and closing black and white sequences and the soundtrack to our care.
