It was de Valera who, in self-righteous speeches in the Dail,personally defended the execution of Plant on evidence originallyrejected by the law as it stood before governmental tampering. Fiveyears later a young I.R.A. prisoner, Sean McCaughey, was allowed todie on hunger strike after four and a half years in jail. De Valerawould not accord him political treatment as this would have beentantamount to admitting a parallel with his own actions in 1922 and1923. In 1923, when the first delegates went to the League of Nations,Mr. de Valera sent a special team of Republican envoys to lobby theother delegations with the contention that Ireland partitioned couldnever take her seat among the nations of the world. De Yalerahimself had taken up arms in defiance of the expressed will of thepeople, and it was not until 1936 that he dared to declare the I.R.A.an illegal body°All revolutionaries, it is said, become conservatives when theyobtain power. As a leader, de Valera had many virtues, but ourrespect for an aged and dignified man should not blind us to theblacker periods of his career. The banning of the T.E. programmein which Mr. Con Lehane had described his part in the George Plantcase may have no connection whatever with the President or hisParty. Let us hope, however, that when the President digs the firstsod for the new Trinity Library he will be making a contribution notonly to free speech but to the service of the ordinary people of Irelandfor which he fought so bitterly.WOOLWORTHPAINTSSuperb ualitglBlack and WhiteMany people have been horrified to hear that Patrick Udenzi, astudent at U.C.D, who was wantonly attacked in Dublin recently,has lost an eye as a result of the injuries he received. Unfortunately,this is not an isolated incident.In the past six months therehave been about fifteen suchattacks on co!oured people, andall of the African students inTrinity to whom I spoke havelearnt to laugh off unpleasant incidents,too trivial to interest thepolice. Typical "was the story ofa man who leant out of his cart.o shout, " Go home, Black."Anti-African feeling is particularlyobvious when a white girlis seen with a coloured boy.Remarks are made in cinemas andon one occasion I was told byGeorge Amangala, who talked tothe "Irish Times" about theproblem, that he was walkingdown Oxford Street with a whitegirl when a man thrust himselfbetween them and said to her,"Why do you want to go outwith a bloody Nigger?"After the article appeared inthe " Irish "rimes," George Amangalareceived a letter saying that--Photo " Irish Times"George Amangala who is on theSociety’s Executive Committee.Theoclora4¸Christian doctrine teaches thatpeople should marry only withintheir own race and that, therefore,no coloured boys should ..............take out white girls, as anyassociation between them maylead to marriage.

They do not show thelarly unpleasant to those Africans attitude of the majority ofwho have been brought up to people. One Nigerian was inmeet white people on equal London during the race riots in1958.

So often when the)’answer an advertisement foraccommodation they" find that un-accountably it is not free anymore.

Not all African countriesare like South Africa, and thebitterness against them, that theyfind in Dublin and, even worse,in London, is quite unexpected tomany students. Colour prejudicein London may perhaps be corn-prehensibie when it is realisedthat coioured people are often athreat to British jobs. But thiscannot apply to Dublin wherenearly all the coloured people arestudents. A typical unreasonedattitude is shown by the remarksof an elderly Dublin woman: "Doyou have blacks in your class?""Yes." "Oh, dear, that’s notnice, is it?" Colour prejudice inIreland may be explained by thefact that many Irish families haverelations in Africa to whom theAfricans were a servant race.

This is thevital distinction that has to bemade if its full impact is to reachan audience. Unfortunately, FrankBailey’s direction lost the social.implications and emphasised fartoo intensely the human elementsand with this universality gonethe action was always out of.perspective.The play hinges on Joe Keller’sdecision to let faulty aircraftcylinder heads be shipped to theAmerican war-time assembly linesto keep his business going andhis contracts honoured. Theresult is that twenty-one pilotsdie. Keller and his partnerDeever are put on trial formurder, but it is Deever whotakese the blame because Keller’sorder was passed over the phoneand therefore not evidence. Theirony is that Keller’s pilot sonLarry is reported missing after anair attack. Arthur Miller usesthis for a discussion on moralresponsibility to oneself and toother people.The play is also concerned withthe effect that the missing sonhas on the family. His mother,a very moving performance byHelen Robinson, believes that heis still alive. She has to believethis if she herself is to live. Herother son Chris knows that he isdead, and is in love with hisbrother’s old girl friend Ann; hehas to be dead if life is to holdaanything of value. So the scenefor the human conflict is set." All My Sons " walks the tightropeof tragedy and melodramasomewhat unsteadily. If this productionswings too far towardsmelodrama it is Frank Bailey’sdoing. The gradual unravelling ofthe characters and establishingthe basic tragic situation wasskimped and unimaginative. Themoments of urgency and angerblended too easily with the quietscenes and his feeling for tensionand mood was unsure.The cast, headed by ArthurO’Sullivan as the consciencestrickenbig time, small townbusiness man, is remarkablycapable and almost managed tosalvage the play. Tony Murphy,whose accent moved threethougsand miles back to his nativeIreland in the first ten minutes,nevertheless gave a strong performanceas Chris.

Itwas more than a pitythat the basic weaknesses ofdirection kept the play lifelesslystatic and for the most part firmlyrooted to the ground while thepotential for something higherwas so obvious.Michael Gilmour.Tel. 75545Trocadero Restaurant3-4 ST.

Michael Mara admittedlygives a slick performance ofThomas Cromwell as a slypolitician of gross self-conceit,and Christopher Casson makes anadmirably unintellectual Duke,but characters such as CardinalWolsey and William Roperlooked as bewildered as if theyhad been misdirected on to thestage by some well-meaningassistant from a theatrical costumiersand their strong Irishaccents were hardly proof to thecontrary.Although this production is notas imaginative as it might be, andsome of the supporting cast areweak, it is a play well worth seeing,if only to discover that a16th century insider can be moredramatically satisfying than anyof the 20th century outsiders soliberally bandied around by lesserdramatists.--Harriet Turton.ThoPEW SHOP4/5 SUFFOLK ST.We speeialise inPARKER, SHEAFFERSand all le~ding brands o~’Fountain Pens.Sales and ServiceN OTE :1O’,i Discount fl)r StudentsOf the 400 odd SeniorSophisters who went to see Mr.Montgomery, the AppointmentsOfficer, last year, some 300 consideredat some time during theirdiscussions with him the possibilityof working overseas.

Of the 125graduates who chose teaching fora career, only 18 finally took upposts found for them outsideIreland or Britain.So it would seem that whilemany toy with the idea, very feweventually grasp the opportunitiesopen to them, perhaps becauseof fear of strange climates andcustoms, or because they haveheard of difficulties in findingemployment at home once theyhave disengaged themselves fromMediocrnlsthe rat-race here. But, if theMinistry of Education (London)may be taken as representative,great concessions are being madeto make it possible for teachersto work abroad for a period.Pension schemes and senioritynow continue automatically duringabsence, and many schoolsare anxious to employ staff whohave lived expatriot as their experience,and therefore teachingquality, has usually beenheightened considerably by living" out foreign."Very few scientists ever go fromTrinity to research in the underdevelopedcountries.

4 TRINITY NEWSlf Ford was on the BoardWe are told in a pamphlet,supposed to have been written byDr. Madden, that one of thestudents, after a long course ofneglect of duties, as well as for anotorious insult committed uponthe Junior Dean, was publiclyadmonished. In order to avengethis punishment, ten or twelve ofthe students behaved themselvesin a most outrageous manner;they stoned the Junior Dean outof the Hall, breaking into hisrooms and destroying everythingin them. They continued toravage other parts of the Collegeuntil the middle of the night,evidently endangering the life ofthe person who was the object oftheir resentment. Dr. Maddenadds that this was done "in atime of great laxity of disc!,pline--perhaps too much so ..." The Board offered considerablrewards for the discovery ofthe perpetrators of these riotousproceedings; the students retortedby offering higher rewardsto anyone who would bring inthe informer, dead or alive. Athreatening letter was sent to theProvost. Strangers from town, aswas usually the case, came intoCollege to assist in the pillage.One of these attempted to set fireto the College gates; and hadnot some of the well-disposedstudents prevented this, theywould have laid the College inashes, as the flames would havecaught hold of the ancient buildings,extravagantly timbered afterthe old manner’, would havereached the new building (theLibrary Square) and the flamescould not then have been extinguished."One of the Junior Fellows,named Edward Ford, who hadb e e n elected in ]730, hadrendered himself particularlyobnoxious to the students.

It opens on toLincoln Place and was describedby the 1929 handbook as beingclose to the tramline and a fewminutes’ walk from WestlandRow.Its proximity to Westland Rowsuggests that heavy lorries comingin and out of Back Gate will increasethe traffic problem alreadyexisting. The Back Gate is notvery wide and, even with themain gate, the granite pillars andboth the side gates removed, twowaytraffic of vehicles laden withbuilding materials will leave littleroom to spare. The porter’s lodgeis built close to the present roadinside the gate, and its steps atleast seem certain to be in theway too.The Back Gate is not reckoneda thing of beauty, but at least itis kept well oiled, and thoughheavy, can quickly be swung toin the path of vehicles withoutpermits of entry. It is said to bevery easy to climb, and holds aplace in the minds of some as ameans of entry to the TrinityBali.000By J. i~. ~|lahafk’.qwas not Junior Dean; but heappears to have been an obstinateand ill-judging man, who tookupon himself to restrain thestudents in an impudent manner.They resented his interference.He had been often insulted bythem, and had received athreatening letter. This causedhim much dejection of spirits;and as his rooms had suffered inthe previous tumult, he keptloaded arms always by his side.One night he was asleep in hisrooms (No. 25) over a passagewhich then led from the LibrarySquare into the playground (awalled-in enclosure which at thattime occupied the site of thepresent New Square). A loadedgun lay by his bedside. Some ofthe students threw stones againsthis windows, which was theusual way in which they annoyedthe College authorities. Ford rosefrom his bed and fired upon themfrom his window which faced theplayground. Determined to retaliate,the band of studentsrushed to their chambers, seizedthe fire-arms, which they had persistedin keeping (although suchhad been forbidden, under painof expulsion, by a decree of theBoard, March 24, 1730), and theyran back to the playground. Inthe meanwhile one of theScholars, who resided in the samehouse, seeing the danger inwhich Ford was placed and knowingthe character of the man,managed to get to his bedroomand strongly urged him to remainin bed. Ford, with his characteristicobstinacy, would not listento this advice, but went to thewindow in his nightdress, whenthe students seeing him, fired atthe window, and wounded himmortally. Poor Ford lingered ingreat agony for about two hoursbefore he died. The Board immediatelymet and investigatedthe circumstances of the murder,and expelled Mr’. Cotter, Mr’.Crosby, Boyle, Scholes and Davisas being the authors of or participatorsin Mr. Ford’s murder. TheBoard employed Hr. Jones, anattorney, to prosecute them formurder’ at the Commission Court,at which trial, however, they wereacquitted.We learn from contemporarypamphlets that the feeling amongthe upper classes in Dublin wasgreatly excited by this affair.Many, especially ladies, stronglytook the part of the young men."The Fellows were the subject ofcommon obloquy; every little indiscretionof their former liveswas ripped up; everything theysaid or did had a wrong turn givento it. Numerous false storiesabout them were spread throughoutthe kingdom. Some of themwere publicly affronted in theCourts of Law by one of hisMajesty’s servants for appearingto do the common offices of everyhonest man. One noble Lorddeclared that a Fellow’s blood didnot deserve an inquisition whichmight detain a man one day fromhis ordinary business¯ However,the judges (except one) all spokeloudly in favour of the College,and specially the Chief Baron."Primate Boulter is said to haveoften appeared astonished whenhe heard gentlemen talk as ifthey were determined to destroythe Irish seat of learning. It isadded that "many did this forthe purpose of injuring religion."No doubt the true explanationof the animosity to the Collegeis to be sought in the strongpolitical feelings which prevailedat the time. The Fellowswere mainly Whigs, and theiropponents belonged to the Toryparty.November 2 s: 1963Fiona WrightA profile attempting to portraysomeone in a few short paragraphsseems doomed to stumbleinto incomprehensibility to theuninitiated or into a morass ofbiographical details.

TRINITY NEWSNovember 21st, 1963OpportunlSeveral recent events in thehistory of the world have givenpeople in Europe plenty of opportunityto realise just how muchthe world has shrunk in the lastfifty years. The Suez Crisiscaused petrol rationing throughoutEurope. In October last year,Cuba brought everyone to theirknees; and only a few weeks agoit became clear that the sale ofwheat from the USA to theUSSR would set world shippingbooming again after a slump thathas lasted since the Korean War.U Thant, speaking with a hopeand optimism which is curiouslycharacteristic of UNO, that worldat the round table, dubbed the" sixties " a " decade of development";but Professor Harbisonmore gloomily has pointed outthat " modern d a m s, powerstations, textile factories or steelmills can be constructed withina few years. But it takes ten tofifteen years to develop themanagers, the administrators andthe engineers to operate them."While Europe and NorthAmerica become bigger a n dbetter and more " welfareious"every year and indulge themselvesm occasional " chicken wars,"Africa, Asia, and Central andSouth America are faced withoverwhelming problems ofeconomic, social and politicaldevelopment. In the hundredleast developed countries theaverage annual income is 35 percent. per person, in the UnitedKingdom mt is 360.

November 21st, 1963TRINITY NEWStheJudging by the looks that onereceives when leaving College forDalkey or Glendalough one wouldimagine that the general concensusof opin:,on here is thatclimbing is a sport for madmen.(On reflection I suppose that wemust look rather odd.)Nevertheless the sport is becomingincreasingly popular bothin College and in the country asa whole. Three years ago onecould have Dalkey Quarry to oneselfon a Sunday afternoon, whilenow the cliffs are so crowded thatit is sometimes necessary toqueue for a climb.This popularity may be goodfor the sport, as from my ownexperience it tends to push theclimber into the remoter recessesof our hills where a good strugglewith a hard climb can still beenjoyed with only one’s climbingpartner for a witness. This ex-.pansion of the sport is only partof a broader pattern which isleading people into the solitudenecessary for true relaxation.When asked the standardquestion, " Why does one climb,"one can only answer by returningthe questions: "Why does oneplay Rugby, or hocker, or indulgein any sport?" To be asked thisby an outsider is one thing, yeteach climber must answer thisquestion for himself.For me it is the uncertainty ofeach ascent whicil makes climbingso attractive. The issue isalways hanging in the balance.As I delicately shift my weightfrom one small hold to anotherI appreciate the fine limits withinwhich my sport is carried out.I feel I am doing something hard;so much so in fact that failurewill mean serious injury or evendeath. I consider the measure ofmy success to be the margin ofsafety with which each climb iscompleted.Climbing is a dangerous sport,but the risk becomes acceptableif the climber’s skill is adequate.The sense of danger he feels issubmerged by the pleasure feltwhen he is climbing at his best.Then the smallest holds becomeveritable ledges, and it seems thatthe rock flows down past himrather than that he is pushinghimself up by brute force. \^/henthat form is strut!mittee:T. 1. Vvillec!’s, j. Nixen~P. Shanks, i. Cherry.theT.C.Do LEAGUEThis season’s new idea -- aninter-College league--is alreadywell under way. There are fiveteams, namely, Gaels, Vikings,Norsemen, Celts and Buccaneers,captained by Rob Andrews, DavidKilpatrick, Bill Rodwell, PhilArundell and Dave Easby, trespectively.If everything goes accordingto plan, every side should playfour matches against league teamsand two external games eachterm. So far five matches havebeen played and only one teamstill has a 100 per cent. record.The league, for which a magnificentcup has been presented,faces--like many other Collegeactivities--the threat of "StudentApathy." Team sheets are postedevery Monday night and too manypeople are either crossing offtheir names or failing to "tickoff." Nor does the trouble endhere, a few players fail to turnup for matches. This makes afarce of all the effort put intothe ieague by people such asTerry Walker, the JuniorSecretary.Now that these difficulties arebeing ironed out, the league isbeginning to work well and isproviding many players with anenjoyable afternoon and evening.So far the league has fulfilled twoof its objects, that of keepingteams together and of guaranteeingthem an opposition to playagainst. Whether it can fulfilli~s third objective, of raising thestandard of Rugby in Trinity,remains to be seen. In this respectthe league has one great advantageover the old system, it givesplayers (especially junior Freshmen)a much greater chance ofbeing recognised.The club and its officials’primary responsibility is to itsmembers and the two secretarieswill welcome any constructivecriticisms, suggestions and advice.Last Saturday, Gaels had a fine19-0 win over Buccaneers (scoringfive tries in the process);Vikings shocked Norsemen. 8-0;and Celts, who had an outsidematch, beat Wanderers veryconvincingly.PRESENT LEAGUE TABLEPoints LeaugeP.

IiIIDAME STREEt DUBLIN HI’I!!iBRO V "S139 Stephen’s GreenClubsBOXING CLUBThe Club held a most enterprisingventure last Saturday at theNational Stadium in the form ofa combined match with U.C.D.it provided, despite many apprehensivemoments, an excellentevening’s boxing, with a combinationof some outstanding boutsand some interesting juvenilecontests. On die whole thestandard of boxing was high, butthis was not matched by an equallevel of fitness.H. Bowman (U.C.D.) had aninteresting contest with P. Rajendram(Cambs.). Giving away 8Ibs., Bowman boxed skilfully tokeep away from Rajendram’sheavy punching to gain a narrowdecision. R. Wilson (Belsize)was far too intelligent for NI.Colbert (U.C.D.). Bill Gregory(T.C.D.) enhanced his reputationby stopping D. Weston (Cambs)in the first round with a splendidright to the head, Weston retiringat the end of the round. CormacO’Sullivan (U.C.D.) gained avery close decision over J.Eccersal (Belsize) in a hard matchbetween two powerful punchers.John Tyior’s contest withDudley Savill (Belsize) was fullof action with traces of boxingskill. Tylor, with crisp punching,comfortably took the first tworounds, but the last round sawSavill coming more into his own.Fitter and faster, he was just unableto catch a rapidly tiringTylor. The final bout of theevening brought t o g e t h e rBuchanan (T.C.D.) and Deery(U.C.D.). Buchanan made veryheavy weather of beating an unfitDeery. Too often he punchedwildly, wasting a lot of energyand endangering himself to anopponent who potentially couldpull some good punches. Still itwas an exciting fight and was afitting conclusion to an enjoyablenight-out.F~,neer.~" b’orl,~’eiburf]In the last month the FencingClub has got into full swing,practices being held between 3.30and 6.0 every Wednesday andFriday in the Gym under thecoach, Prof. Duffy.All !ast year’s team members,nine of whom were chosen atone stage or another to fence fortire, and they have been joinedby some experienced new fencers.All this bodes well for the comingseasoi~.The term started with a winagainst British Legion.

8TRINITY NEVqS November 21~. .5~:iIIi~ .RUGBYPack in troubleDublin University ... 3 pts.Trinity suffered their first setbackin four games against apowerful, enthusiastic CollegiansXV in College Park last Saturday.The visitors included in theirside five Ulster inter-provincials,four of them forwards, and thiswas where the game was to belose.The start was promising, andsome incisive running by Readled to a period of pressure onthe Collegians’ line. But it wasnot long before the heavier visitingpack began to dominate, relievingthe pressure and penningTrinity in their own half. Theirfitness and superior enthusiasmenabled them to overwhelm theTrinity eight, with the resultthat our half-backs were underconstant pressure from t h eopposing back row, albeit toevery neutral observer except thereferee, they seemed to spendmuch of the game offside.Nevertheless, the few timesthat Rees was able to serve Readquickly and with room to move~n, the latter’ and Whittakershowed their attacking abilities.One of these runs led to Trinity’sonly score. Read beat his manon the outside, linked up withHall and he sent his winger, M.Boyd (who had a good game),racing clear. When challenged onthe twenty-five, he passed insideto the forwards, and only anobstruction prevented a certaintry. Rees converted the ensuingpenalty.That was to be the extent ofTrinity’s ,scoring. Chances wereoffered, but there was no placekickercapab!e of capitalising onthem. From then on it was aquestion of how long TrinityCollegians ............. 11 pts.could keep their line intactagainst incessant Collegians’attacks and they were not to bedenied. Elementary mistakesallowed them to score twice, anda fine three-quarter movementright at the end completed thevictory.The Trinity forwards were disorganisedthroughout the game.As the opponents hunted ingroups in four and five in theloose, only A. Bourke, Ross andBittenberg sould match theirferocity. One feels that moreteam practice could harness thepower’, in what is the strongestand toughest pack in College formany years, one which could laythe foundation of a much-neededwin in the Colours Match.
