I am a common man. I speak as an individual, representing<br />
only a considerable body <strong>of</strong> Christian opinion in England.' So<br />
spoke Dr. Hewlett Johnson, Dean <strong>of</strong> Canterbury, at St. Lucia<br />
last Wednesday,<br />

our<br />
Other views not unanimously accepted<br />
included these; Religion is<br />
perfectly free in Russia; a religious<br />
war against these so-called godless,<br />
priest-persecuting barbarians would<br />
be insane; there are no slave camps in<br />
Russia, nor have responsible foreign<br />
correspondents <strong>of</strong> conservative<br />
English newspapers in Russia found<br />
a shred <strong>of</strong> evidence to show the existence<br />
<strong>of</strong> any; it is ridiculous to<br />
suggest the Russian people want<br />
war; that the Russian people are<br />
spending so much money and effort<br />
on reconstruction, particularly in<br />
the western areas <strong>of</strong> Russia, proves<br />
this; Stalin has four times wanted to<br />
discuss peace on the grounds <strong>of</strong> the<br />
abolition <strong>of</strong> all weapons <strong>of</strong> mass destruction,<br />
reduced armaments, free<br />
trade between East and West, and an<br />
exchange <strong>of</strong> scientists and technicians,<br />
but these <strong>of</strong>fers have always<br />
been rejected.<br />
There need be no third war. "One<br />
is your father, all are your brethren,"<br />
and it will be only with the<br />
union <strong>of</strong> West with East that peace<br />
will be accomplished. How, Dr,<br />
Johnson did not explain,<br />
' Interjections were few, unorganised<br />
and quite <strong>of</strong>ten pointless, and unfortunately<br />
degenerated into mere mockery<br />
and insult. The great majority<br />
<strong>of</strong> the 400 students there were willing<br />
and anxious to hear the-Dean's<br />
point <strong>of</strong> view and he was warmly<br />
applauded when he concluded.<br />
There were no questions.<br />

Science Display<br />
On Wednesday there will be again that feature <strong>of</strong> Commem.<br />
Week celebrations, the usual outstanding display by our<br />
Scientists, Engineers, Architects and Foresters, not to mention<br />
a few Meds., who will be active down at the Physiotherapy<br />
School.<br />
George Street will be thrown open<br />
to the general public between two<br />
and five in the afternoon and between<br />
seven o'clock and nine-thirty at<br />
night. That short break will be to<br />
enable our harassed demonstrators<br />
to gobble something before the evening<br />
rush.<br />
The Engineers are shaking up their<br />
bag <strong>of</strong> tricks again, and you are more<br />
or less commanded to go and see that<br />
gorgeous gem collection, piece de resistance<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Geology Section. And<br />
don't forget to make a visit to William<br />
Street and the Physiology<br />
School where the charming lasses in<br />
charge will be delighted to do anything<br />
for you from mapping brain<br />
waves, to taking your blood pressure.<br />
For further interesting and exciting<br />
details we can orily refer you to the<br />
guide book and to our legion <strong>of</strong> de<br />
' .1'..-<br />
monstrators, (Please.. don't embarrass<br />
the Freshers too badly.)<br />
The Science Display is a student<br />
organised affair, although we owe a<br />
great deal to the ndeinbers <strong>of</strong> staff,<br />
who have been so" ready with help<br />
and advice. However, there's been<br />
quite an amount <strong>of</strong> work attached to*<br />
the whole affair, for those in charge<br />
<strong>of</strong> the various departments—if you've<br />
seen that distracted expression on<br />
Len Daniels' face lately, it's pgssibly<br />
because he's convener, and even practice<br />
for the Drinking Horn hasn't<br />
entirely worn it away.<br />
So students, roll along,. we want<br />
to show you as well as the general<br />
public, in a spectacular manner <strong>of</strong><br />
course how we Science types toil<br />
away, and incidentally some <strong>of</strong> the<br />
wonders <strong>of</strong> Science.. We aire at your<br />

first Subscription Concert<br />
The 1950 Subscription Series opened on Friday and Saturday<br />
nights, when John Farnsworth Hall conducted the <strong>Queensland</strong><br />
Symphony Orchestra. Both nights saw a fairly empty hall.<br />
However, later concerts may attract better audiences. The<br />
balance <strong>of</strong> the programme was decidedly in favour <strong>of</strong> the<br />
moderns.<br />
The general effect in the Leonora<br />
No. 3 was pleasing. It was followed<br />
by "Music for Strings," by the<br />
contemporary Englishman, Blias,<br />
Although the violins were rather<br />
weak at the beginning, the blend improved<br />
later on, with some especially<br />
beautiful viola playing, "What stood<br />
out above all else was the lovely<br />
string quartet section. The orchestra<br />
also made the most <strong>of</strong> the astonishing<br />
and climatic pedal point in the second<br />
movement. My programme tells me<br />
that the work is "neither a symphony<br />
nor a concerto grosso with solo<br />
ripieno, ' but concert without prefix<br />
or suffix." Am I alone in wondering<br />
just what all that means?<br />
William Herbert, Australian tenor,<br />
sang "Through Woods and Meadows"<br />
from "Der Frieschutz" <strong>of</strong> Weber, and<br />
"In Distant Land" from Wagner's<br />
"Lohengrin." He sang with good<br />
intonation and resonance, and a pleasing<br />
lack <strong>of</strong> affectation. It is indeed<br />
good news that this fine tenor is to<br />
sing in "Tannhauser," This sort <strong>of</strong><br />
thing could well happen more <strong>of</strong>ten.<br />
To get back to the point, in "Summer<br />
iSight on the River," by Delius,<br />
the orchestra captured the spirit <strong>of</strong><br />
the work, and the scene was not hard<br />
to imagine. Delius's music always<br />
reminds me <strong>of</strong> a Hilder painting, with<br />
its vague, mystic impressionism. The<br />
performance was marked by especially<br />
good work from the woodwind<br />
section.<br />
In the Sibelius Symphony No. 5,<br />
the orchestra deserves praise for a<br />
splendid performance <strong>of</strong> a long and<br />
difficult work. For my own part, I<br />
do not like the work—part <strong>of</strong> the first<br />
movement • sounds too much like a<br />
railway shunting yards. But in<br />
other parts there is a wealth <strong>of</strong><br />
emotion and interest, which was well<br />
brought out in this performance.<br />
The concert shows promise <strong>of</strong> a<br />
very interesting 1950 season. We<br />
hope, however, that later programmes<br />
will be more balanced,<br />
B, NATURAL,<br />
They Sought It With Thimhles<br />
Lewis Carroll has told lis all about the Snark, which<br />
mysterious creature is noted, among other things, for<br />
". . . its slowness in taking a jest;<br />
Should you happen to venture on one,<br />
It will sigh like a thing that is deeply distressed<br />
And it always looks grave at a pun,"<br />
Have you, perhaps some affinity<br />
with this unlovable character? Can<br />
you laugh at "Punch," or see the<br />
hilarious side <strong>of</strong> the pomposity and<br />
the deadly serious theories and conventions<br />
that entangle us? The procession<br />
should show up your capabilities,<br />
if you have any; but whether<br />
you are thus gifted or not, a course<br />
<strong>of</strong> G. K, .Chesterton will do you the<br />
world <strong>of</strong> good, and then you may<br />
perhaps see that everything isn't so<br />
straightforward, so staid and stuffy<br />
a.s it might at first suggest. Just<br />
listen to that wonderful mind defending<br />
nonsense:<br />
", , , it is significant that in the<br />
Book <strong>of</strong> Job the argument which<br />
convinces the infidel is not a picture<br />
<strong>of</strong> the ordered beneficence <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Creation; but, on the contrary, a<br />
picture <strong>of</strong> the huge and undecipherable<br />
unreason <strong>of</strong> it. This simple<br />
sense <strong>of</strong> wonder at the shapes <strong>of</strong><br />
things; and at their exuberant independence<br />
<strong>of</strong> our intellectual<br />
stan(iards and our trivial definitions,<br />
is the basis <strong>of</strong> spirituaUty as it is<br />

the basis <strong>of</strong> nonsense. Nonsense and<br />
faith are the two supreme symbolic<br />
assertions <strong>of</strong> the truth that to draw<br />
out the soul <strong>of</strong> things with a<br />
syllogism is as impossible as to |<br />
draw out Leviathan with a hook.<br />
The well-meaning person who, by<br />
merely studying the logical side <strong>of</strong><br />
things, has decided that faith is<br />
'nonsense' does not know how truly<br />
he speaks; later it may come back to<br />
him in the form that nonsense is<br />
faith."<br />
The moral <strong>of</strong> the story is however,<br />
that you have a fine chance<br />
to sort out some <strong>of</strong> this "faithnonsense"<br />
for yourself at Tallebudgera<br />
in the first week <strong>of</strong> first<br />
vacation. There you'll find the<br />
S.C.M. presenting a series <strong>of</strong> first<br />
rate addresses, tutorials and studies<br />
dealing with this same "Life <strong>of</strong><br />
Faith" that you're starting to wonder<br />
about. Archdeacon W, A. Hardie,<br />
Rev. Lockley, and Rev, John<br />
Alexander <strong>of</strong> Warwick are among<br />
those who will guide your gropings—<br />
and don't think that there's anything<br />
cut-and-dried about the<br />
business; you may be sure that<br />
you'll find puzzles and doubts<br />
aplenty if you haven't done so already.<br />
The S.C.M, is not promising<br />
you a nicely measured and neatly<br />
wrapped philosophy to put' in your<br />
mental pocket and act charmwise<br />
to ward <strong>of</strong>f evil—who, indeed, can<br />
draw out Leviathan with a hook!<br />
And how Chesterton would laugh ot<br />
us if we could.<br />
But we invite you to embark on<br />
a search, like Carroll's Snarkhunters,<br />
who in their desire to find<br />
their quarry.<br />
", . . sought it with thimbles, they<br />
sought it with care;<br />
They pursued it with forks and hope;<br />

Saturday night, 7.45, was the deadline, for it was then that<br />
the <strong>University</strong> Choir gave its annual broadcast from St. Andrew's<br />
Chiu-ch over 4QR, and those who tuned in heard them give a<br />
very creditable performance <strong>of</strong> several extracts from Bach's<br />
"Mass in B Minor," to the accompaniment <strong>of</strong> the church organ,<br />
and with Mr. Hugh Branden as conductor.,. The enthusiasm <strong>of</strong><br />
the choir has always been keen, and on Saturday all four parts<br />
were in good voice, despite the small number <strong>of</strong> tenors. Any<br />
budding Carusos will be welcomed with open arms.<br />
This year, 200 years since the death <strong>of</strong> Bach, the choir is<br />
also taking part in the combined Bach-Handel festival, and in<br />
July will have the honour <strong>of</strong> singing the Mass, assisted by several<br />
soloists from Sydney. Both choir and conductor are working<br />
hard for this day, and it is to be hoped that their efforts are<br />
crowned with, success.<br />

Ladies' "A" grade ("A" for Allright) Rugby Union team will<br />
play a team <strong>of</strong> burly brutes from the Football Club.<br />
Already the ladies have selected a team and under the<br />
skilful coaching <strong>of</strong> former Interstate centre Mai Quaterm&ss are<br />
developing a fine combination. This promises to be one <strong>of</strong> the<br />
highlights <strong>of</strong> Commem, Day.<br />
Realising the serious challenge to our "A" grade side, a<br />
most competent PROFESSORIAL referee has been appointed<br />
His name will be divulged next week.<br />
The game will be held at the Exhibition No. 2 ground at<br />
1.0 p.m. Monies raised are to be used to help finance the Inter-<br />
Varsity trip to Hobart in first vac.<br />

^Welcome to Pr<strong>of</strong>. Prentice<br />
;i Last Friday, the students and the staff <strong>of</strong> the Engineering<br />
[•faculty were privileged to meet the new pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> electrical<br />
Bengineering, Pr<strong>of</strong>essor Prentice, at a tea <strong>of</strong> the Engineering<br />
l| Undergraduates' Society.<br />
Pr<strong>of</strong>. Prentice graduated in Melbourne<br />
in 1930 and is a M.E,E. and<br />
B.Sc. In 1935 he visited England and<br />
the Continent, and gained practical<br />
experience <strong>of</strong> the large power and<br />
manufacturing industries overseas.<br />
During the war he was seconded<br />
from the S.E.C. <strong>of</strong> Victoria to the<br />
Munitions Department.<br />
He comes to <strong>Queensland</strong> from<br />
t!ie Victorian State Electricity<br />
Commission, where he was an<br />
electrical design engineer on the<br />
power side.<br />
The Dean <strong>of</strong> the faculty. Pr<strong>of</strong>.<br />
Lowery, introduced Pr<strong>of</strong>, Prentice<br />
and expressed pleasure in the completion<br />
<strong>of</strong> the faculty chairs.<br />
In reply, Pr<strong>of</strong>. Prentice told us<br />
that he hopes to Join in a happy<br />
team with Pr<strong>of</strong>. Lowery, Pr<strong>of</strong>. White<br />
and Pr<strong>of</strong>. Shaw. With a new school<br />
at St, Lucia and new equipment <strong>of</strong><br />
high quality, it should be possible to<br />
maintain a very high standard <strong>of</strong><br />
Engineering in <strong>Queensland</strong>, He said<br />
<strong>Queensland</strong> had only begun to develop<br />
its electrical system, and there<br />
were wonderful prospects in the pr<strong>of</strong>ession<br />
here. The prospects <strong>of</strong> obtaining<br />
a house In Brisbane were not<br />
near as promising.<br />
With formalities finished, the large<br />
plates <strong>of</strong> Pasties and Cakes were<br />
demolished with amazing rapidity—<br />
the college men are always with us.<br />
Students jond staff mingled and we<br />
were able to meet Pr<strong>of</strong>. Prentice informally.<br />
And on meeting him, one<br />
felt really sincere in welcoming him<br />
to <strong>Queensland</strong> <strong>University</strong>, and we<br />
hope his stay here will be a very,<br />
pleasant one.

SPORTSMAN OF THE<br />
WEEK Pot-Hunt Starts Tomorrow<br />
ALAN CARD earned his title by<br />
a fine effort <strong>of</strong> scoring 101 out <strong>of</strong> a<br />
possible 105. This was top score for<br />
the entire range <strong>of</strong> more than a<br />
hundred shooters. The score comprised<br />
33/35 at 300 yards, 33/35 at<br />
500 yards and 35/35 at 600 yards. His<br />
shoot was even more outstanding, due<br />
to his gaining a possible 35 after a<br />
heav.y storm on a hard range, viz., 600<br />
yards.<br />
Other features <strong>of</strong> his shooting are:<br />

BASKETBALL<br />
Last Saturday night saw the<br />

'Varsity Championship Series.<br />
The Series is being played in<br />
the new home <strong>of</strong> Basketball in<br />
Brisbane, at the Wool Court,<br />
Exhibition, and with these improved<br />
conditions we should see<br />
a higher standard <strong>of</strong> play in this<br />
an dsucceeding seasons. Five<br />
games each Saturday night will<br />
provide four (4) hours <strong>of</strong><br />
continuous basketball, starting<br />
at 6 o'clock.<br />
Competition this year will be keen,<br />
. no doubt heightened by the fact that<br />
the Inter-Varsity Carnival is to he<br />
held in Brisbane in the first week <strong>of</strong><br />
