less, nominations were made

for the title 'Queen of Jez ' .

unately (but as expected) the

Steve Braund, was declared

invalid.

The successful candidate

this year is Paola Muszynska,

(hope I got that right) who is

a first year Life Scientist.

says NUS The National Union of Students has this week warned IC

Union that it cannot expect any more student discount cards if

the Union continues to sell them at £1.75. IC Union had initially

bought a batch of 200 discount cards and associated handbooks.

— • COLLEGE NOTICES —

The Orienteering Club is one of the

newest college clubs, but already it is

one of the most active. This term, we

will be taking part in Orienteering

Events nearly every Sunday in forests in

the South of England. We usually travel

by minibus, leaving fairly early on

Sunday morning, and getting back about

mid-afternoon.

Orienteering is a sport that should

appeal to anyone with a pair of legs and a

liking for the country-side. There are

always a variety of courses varying in

length between 2 and 8 miles, 'so you can

choose the course you prefer. Whether

you are strolling round, or running round,

it is best to try a short course the first

time and move up as you gain experience.

nFor those who don't yet know what the

sport involves, the idea is to make one's

way round a set' of checkpoints in the

forest in the shortest time using map and

compass. The checkpoints consist of red

and white markers hung on some feature

eg a spur, a path junction^and one chooses

one's own route between them. To do well,

navigation is just as important as speed.

T o find out more about the sport,

come along to our Friday lunchtime

meetings, held regularly in the Senior

Common Room ( Union First Floor).

At these meetings, a cheap bread and

cheese lunch is provided, and transport

for forthcoming events is arranged.

SECURITY NEWS The attention of Students, particularly now arrivals to the

College, is drawn to the services provided by the security staff

and students should not hesitate to contact the Security Officer,

Room 763, Sherfield Building, internal telephone number 2741

regarding any security matter and in particular anything con­

cerning the following:-

tEvery year hundreds of items of personal property are found

and handed In at the Security Office — many such items are never

claimed by the losers and eventually are returned to the finders.

Students and Staff who lose property should promptly inform the

security staff and in many cases the items will be speedily

restored. Persons finding items of personal property should

hand them in to the Security Office or to one of the messengers

or security guards on any of the buildings.

s It Is an unfortunate fact of life that, on an open campus such

as this where a very large number of people are allowed

considerable freedom of access, periodical spates of stealing

occur. A good deal of this is due to the incursions of 'walk in'

thieves who prey on institutions such as this and on the museums,

several of which are in close proximity to the College. Both

Students and Staff are requested to co-operate with security

staff by promptly reporting to the Security Officer any suspicious

persons seen loitering in college buildings or entering offices or

laboratories with no apparent authority. Wallets, cash, Cheque

books, calculators, slide rules, watches are the things most

commonly stolen and they should never be left in jackets or

brief cases In unattended rooms, in particular, cheque books and

cheque cards should always be carried separately on the person

£S Instances have occurred where heavy withdrawals of cash

Irom banks have been made through thieves having obtained

possession of both card and cheque book.

Pedal cycles are currently very attractive to thieves and it

brought on to the campus they should be secured to the cycle

rack with a heavy chain and stout padlock. Plastic covered

cables of the kind purchased in cycle shops provide little

deterrent to thieves and should not be used. If you value your

cycle please insure it.

rUnless you have been authorised to park your car on the

campus do not bring it into the College car park otherwise you

will inconvenience some person who has an authorised parking

place. Derelict vehicles are also'from time to time an embarrass­

ment to the College and any vehicle which ceases to be roao

worthy should be disposed of by the owner and not left on the

car park where it may quickly be cannibalised by persons who

are quick to recognise that it has been abandoned. Motor cycles

brought into the College must be registered with the Security

Officer and Students are requested to park only in the authorised

parking spaces. Parking in between motor vehicles can result in

damage to both cars and motor cycles.

Language classes Weekly classes in French, German and Russian will be held

throughout the session 1976—77. They are open, free of charge,

to all members of Imperial College and provide for three levels

of attainment:

Elementary — for complete beginners. (Two periods of 1 hour

per week).

Intermediate —for students who have previously completed at

least a year's course in the language. (One period

1^ hours per week).

Advanced —for students who have already followed the

Intermediate course or who have reached a

standard corresponding to an 'O' level pass.

(One period of IVi hours per week).

t "" If you wish to enrol for these classes get in touch with Mrs

Campion in the Associated Studies office (53 Prince's Gate, internal 3958) between 9.30 and 12.00 noon any weekday.

imp l i es that the R e g i s t r y

further from the truth. Indeed

I somet imes th ink that the

reasons why the F r e s h e r s '

Watte**: It may now s e e m a long way behind

u s , but I'd l ike t o make a few comments

on the F r e s h e r s F a i r of last T u e s d a y .

G e n e r a l l y , I was very impressed by the

organ isa t ion of the s t a l l s and the

e f f i c ien t way in w h i c h people c lea red up

afterwards and returned the hired tab les —

there were only a few e x c e p t i o n s .

It was inev i tab le that some s o c i e t i e s

(would turn up w i t h i n the las t 48 hours

and request a s t a l l , perhaps because

the prev ious y e a r ' s commit tee had

forgotten to do s o . A few s o c i e t i e s put

up pos ters and s i g n s w i th ' s e l l o t a p e ' ,

but most were more c o n s i d e r a t e .

y

On the sub jec t of p u b l i c i t y , the pub l i c i t y ru les are a v a i l a b l e from Chalky; and the H o u s e Commit tee may have one of their pe r iod ic purges on " i l l e g a l " (eg out of date) posters in the near future (h in t ! ) .

F r e s h e r s F a i r was a very impress i ve

s i g h t . I cou ld not e s t i m a t e the number of

s tuden ts m i l l i n g a round . It was rather

unfortunate that the af ternoon w a s wet

and w indy , e s p e c i a l l y s i n c e th is

prevented the hot a i r ba l l oon being

in f la ted in the quadrang le . But I hope

that a good t ime w a s had by a l l .

IA l l is going w e l l in the Un ion at

almost unable to get into or out of my

eThose of you who were at the Un ion

meet ing last week (you were there,

weren ' t you?) w i l l remember, if (a) you

were awake and (b) you knew what was

go ing on , (which I d id not most of the

t ime), that I ment ioned two items c o n c e r n ­

ing the U n i o n ' s mascot in my report .

The masco t , 'Mike', i s the totem or

r a l l y i n g point , i f you l i k e , for the body

of s tudents at IC. A f te r d i s c u s s i o n s

w i th a number of peop le , i nc lud ing some

who have had Mike in thei r persona l

ca re in prev ious y e a r s , I sugges ted that

Mike be secu red to a w a l l in the U n i o n

Bar where the mascot can be s e e n by

a l l IC students and their gues t s , but

not stolen by r i va l c o l l e g e s . I hope that

I s h a l l r ece i ve sugges t i ons from many

members of the Un ion regarding th is

pro ject .

Second l y , on November 3rd we are to

ce leb ra te the 10th B i r thday of our mascot ,

and to th is purpose I am arranging a

' s m a l l ' d inner in the U n i o n D in i n g H a l l .

T h i s w i l l i nvo lve l igh ten ing your w a l l e t s

and purses by £5.00, (don't c r inge too

much, some people have a l ready pa id ! ) ,

cheques made payab le to Imperial

C o l l e g e U n i o n . The dinner is s l i g h t l y

more expens i ve than the F r e s h e r s

D inners s i n c e the Un ion does not s u b s i d i s e

d inners — F r e s h e r s D inners are s u b s i d i s e d

by the department.

One last wor ld - please ensure that

you are car ry ing your Un ion ca rds in the

Un ion b u i l d i n g , and that gues t s who do

not have cards under r e c i p r o c a l agreements

are s igned into the guest book in the

Un ion bar (another h in t ! ) .

A f t e r two weeks of IC you shou ld a l l

now be in a f i t s ta te for c e r t i f i c a t i o n of

insan i t y . P e r s o n a l l y , the c l u t c h on my

brain is s l i p p i n g ; however, spare parts

and my headsh inker permi t t ing, back into

top gear and off w i t h —

hAf ter hav ing run for three w e e k s ,

the C r a s h P a d is c l o s i n g af ter ton igh t ' s

' s e s s i o n ' . There are, at the time of

wr i t i ng , about hal f a d o z e n second and

third yea rs s t i l l us ing the scheme . How­

ever , it has been dec ided to c l o s e the

scheme s i n c e it appears that a l l f i rs t

year s tudents now have somewhere to

l i ve — the c r i t e r i on be ing that second

and third year s tudents are, genera l l y ,

better equ ipped to dea l w i th f ind ing

someones f loor to c rash upon than a

f i rs t year , who may not know a s o u l in

C o l l e g e . I wou ld l i ke to say a s p e c i a l

thankyou to John Me l l o rs and R o s s

these three, together wi th a few notes on

the p o l i t i c a l groups w i th in student p o l i t i c s .

One-of the most con t rove rs ia l bod ies is

the N U S , a confedera t ion of independent

insurance brokerage ( E n d s l e i g h ) , a

market ing s e r v i c e and a pr int ing firm (al l

making a s l i gh t prof i t ) .

SThe po l i c y of the union is dec ided by

two c o n f e r e n c e s every year , one at the

end of th is term and the other dur ing the

send de lega tes to the con fe rences but

l e s s than hal f in fact do s o , desp i te

the in t roduct ion of a conference subs idy

fund. One de lega te i s sent for every

thousand or part of a thousand fu l l t ime

f i ve de lega tes a s w e l l as three obse rve rs .

A t the present day con fe rences reports

prev ious mandates are rece i ved and

p o l i c i e s on sub jec t s ranging from the

dT h e problem wi th the N U S i s that it

is seen to be out of touch wi th the

C o n s e r v a t i v e Students - the f i rs t to

be e l e c t e d for seve ra l y e a r s . The main

reason for th is to ta l dominat ion of the

N U S by one par t i cu la r group i s the

undemocrtrt ic nature of the conference

F E L I X , October 15th 1976 - S

and the method of e l e c t i o n of the

e x e c u t i v e .

The de lega tes to conference emerge

from their un ions by many methods; some,

l i ke us , e l e c t them by campus w ide

bal lo t or from a U G M , others send

de lega tes ex -o f f c io ( ie P r e s i d e n t ,

Ex te rna l A f f a i r s V P ) , and at some

c o l l e g e s the de lega tes are appo in ted

by the union e x e c u t i v e .

cT h e s e d e l e g a t e s , who must be

a c t i v i s t s just to attend con fe rence , then

e l e c t t h e e x e c u t i v e in a fa i r l y undemocrat ic

been at tempts to br ing in d i rec t e l e c t i o n s

A t present the po l i cy of IC Un ion i s

that we recogn ise that the N U S i s undem­

F o o d , f o o d , glorious food! I C is situated in the heart of London's entertainment world.

Within a mere ten pence bus ride of College exists every

possible form of entertainment; films, strip-shows, d iscos,

women's colleges, plays and food. The variety provided by the

latter is endless and a three year systematic attack on it is

well within the pocket of any student. This "tour de cu is ine"

can and should turn the "f ish fingers * • ' peas merchant" into

an "international" gastronome.

eY o u have or w i l l at some s tage tack le and suf fer(?) the

F E L I X , O C T O B E R 15th 1976 - 7

sBroadcast radio has now been in

London for 54 years, starting humbly

with 2LO broadcasting from the roof

of Selfridges by the British Broadcast­

ing Company. The BBC rapidly opened

other stations throughout the country

and was made a public corporation.

in 1927 (perhaps they'll be celebrating

another 50th aniversary next year?).

During the 30's the BBC changed

it's structure to the 'National' and

an alternative network of regional

stations. After the war the 'National'

became the 'Light Programme' and

the regionals the 'Home Service'.

These were joined by the 'Third

Programme' in the late 40's. Domestic

broadcasting until this time had been

on the long and medium wave but the

50's saw the introduction of the

lirst VHF transmitters.

e

During the 50's and early 60's it

was generally assumed that television

would virtually replace radio in the

future. This theory was proved not

necessarily correct by the pirates in

the mid 60's. The first of the pirates

was Radio Caroline, broadcasting

from a boat anchored off the Essex

coast. The pirates exploited the

advantages of radio over TV. Like

its low cost, its personel appeal and

its ability to form images in the mind

of the lieiener. These stations were

in international waters so they were

outside the law (rather than illegal).

The government attempted, fairly

successfully, to control these stations

in 1967 by making any link that they

had with the UK illegal (although

they do not have any control over the

broadcasting itself). This saw the

death of most of the pirates.

The pirates had clearly demon­

strated that radio was still very much

alive, so the BBC pushed ahead on

two fronts; it split the Light Programme

Nl

into the present Radio 1 and 2 and it

re-introduced local stations.

In October 1973 the first of .the

reconstituted IBA's commercial

stations, LBC, opened; this has been

followed by 18 other stations.

The two London local commercial

stations, LBC and Capital Radio do

command a fair audience but do not

seem to be paying well. Both have

had to be helped in the recent past

by Canadian interests (now 29% of

Capital Radio and 49.5% of LBC)

possible reasons for this are LBC's

original costing for it supplying news

for the projected 60 stations whilst

only 19 are on the air and Capital's

enormous staff (over 200) including

people on big star salaries.

yOf the London stations the one to

watch in the future is the BBC local

station, Radio London, the audience

figures are rising rapidly - a fact

that will not surprise anyone who has

met its manager, Alan Holden, who is

a major driving force. Anyone who has

been to several of the stations, as I

have, cannot have failed to notice

the very friendly atmosphere of the

station compared with some of the.

others.

e

The future of broadcasting is

currently held in the balance awaiting

the publication of the Annan

Committee report on its future. The

outcome of this is hard to predict but

they have already stated that they

are in favour of local radio so it

would seem that it is here to stay in

some form. There is some speculation

that local radio will be taken from

both the BBC and IBA and be controlled

by the same body-.

to be a news and informat ion s ta t ion wi th

nI n i t i a l l y their programmes were a

there were too many people driving

home at that time of evening who would

rather hear music for another hour. So,

basically, my bit of the shift was

stretched out a bit'.

So Roger inher i ted an ex t ra f i ve

hours per week . However h i s t imes lo t i s

more l i ke a number o f d i f ferent shows

rather than one four-hour bund le .

g'It changes as you feel the audience

change. At three o'clock it's oldies

the Three O'clock Thrill — because the

kids are at school for a start; then at

four, four thirty you get into things that

are gonna interest them (the kids) like

the Top Ten and the People's Choice.'

( A chance for the l i s tener to vote for

one of two brand new records that Roger

has c h o s e n , from Monday to T h u r s d a y ,

gets the most phone- in v o t e s , and it

becomes the P e o p l e ' s C h o i c e ; ie R e c o r d

of the Week — for the for thcoming week . )

'So it is just changing it (the program­

me) and adjusting it as your audience is

changing. Then at six o'clock, six to

seven it gets a bit loose and you can

have a little more freedom because the

mums and dads all sit goggling in front

of the box anyway.So you can practically

write them off; the people left listening

at the time are a little bit more involved-

in the music so you can lend to take a

few more liberties with the play list.'

yThe p lay l i s t is the magic word around

rad io s t a t i ons . It i s the l i s t o f r ec o r ds ,

predominant ly s i n g l e s , that make up the

s t a t i o n ' s s tandard mus ic compos i t i on for

the week . A l l records on the p l a y l i s t

s h o u l d , in theory , have an equa l number

of p l a y s per w e e k .

A record ou ts ide the p l a y l i s t i s

u n l i k e l y to rece i ve much a i r t ime , i f a n y ,

on the ' p o p ' mus i c programmes. C a p i t a l ' s

p l a y l i s t i s d e c i d e d at week l y meet ings

w h i c h are cha i red by the mus i c d i rec to r ,

A i d a n D a y , a n d w h i c h enable most of the

presen te rs to have thei r say in the

matter . With the p l a y l i s t in operat ion

Roger Scot t , for i n s t a n c e , wou ld wa l k

into the s tud io a n d , depend ing on the

f e e l of the programme, wou ld p i c k out a

record near the front of the var ious

s e c t i o n s — the ones at the back be ing

records jus t p layed — so that there i s no

set d i s c order or set t imes that a cer ta in

record should be p l a y e d .

In fac t he has v i r tua l l y comple te

f reedom of c h o i c e w i t h i n the p l a y l i s t ,

but 'even though there might be 'a

specific record on the playlist that you

hate you don't avoid that record because

you know that ther's gonna be hundreds

and thousands of people out there who

are gonna love it when you put it on.'

In point o f fac t Roger has 10 to 15 per

cent of the programme mate r i a l lef t

en t i re ly up to h i m .

On the sub jec t of C a p i t a l ' s future

Roger had th is to s a y : 'Capital wants to

consolidate and always change. I think

you must always keep changing. If you

stay the same then you get stale and

don't progress at all.It's a very dangerous

situation that we are in really; being as

successful as we have become in the

three years it is very easy to get com­

placent about it — sort of sit back and

say " w e l l a ren ' t we g o o d ? " and " h a v e n ' t

we done w e l l ? " . If you do that then it's

the beginning of the end, se we don't do

that, we don't realty think about that. We

are always thinking about how we can

change it, how we can improve it and

things we can do, like the Helpline

thing that we started. Things like that

which aren't gimmicks and they aren't

things that are going to gain us an

enormous audience. They are not flashy

things to do, but things like that they

help us get more involved and more

into the community. It's things like that,

now that we apparently have this large

audience, that enable us to consolidate

the audience figures, so that they (the

listeners) are there just because they're

going to hear records they want to

hear but because there are other things

going on as well.'

T h e w e e k l y rev iew of C a p i t a l ' s

larges t aud ience f i gu res . It star ted at the

end of September 1976 soon after the

obv ious copy o f their s t y l e . It was

formed by s p l i t t i n g the L i g h t Programme

hours of separate programming

yR a d i o One i s e s s e n t i a l l y a pe rsona l i t y

Sunday Morn ing show on R a d i o One and

R a d i o Luxembourg . F E L I X asked him

how he saw h i s ro le as a breakfast t ime

D J ; ' / see my job as essentially being a

bright and breezy link between the

music, personality injections between the

music conveying information,but generally

just trying to smooth the whole thing

along'.

eN o e l ' s mus i c is chosen from a p l a y l i s t

by h i s producer , the on ly e f fect he has

on i t i s through c h o o s i n g h is record of

R a d i o One mus ic i s genera l ly chart

m u s i c , w h i c h N o e l d e s c r i b e d as 'across

the board good music' a l though he does

have m i s g i v i n g s about th i s p o l i c y : 7

don't believe that any station should be

tied to a chart, because it almost

suggests you're following the public. I

reckon a really successful station ought

to lead the public. Give them the choice

and variety. If you are tied totally to

what a group of people is buying, I

don't think that is a good thing'. Indeed

s i n c e the advert of B r i t i s h commerc ia l

rad io , R a d i o One h a s been able to

answer c r i t i c i s m that i t was not p l a y i n g

a record that the producers d i d not

be l i eve su i ted the s t a t i o n .

l

What d i d N o e l th ink of commerc ia l

rad io and C a p i t a l in p a r t i c u l a r ' . 7 think

Capital is an awful mess although I

listen to it a lot. I think that Capital is

a bit of a contradiction in a way. It's

trying to be both a personality station

and a music station at the same time'.

He thought that there was room for

another commerc ia l s ta t ion in L o n d o n

w h i c h cou ld have a h igh ly s e l e c t i v e

p o l i c y , perhaps l i ke R a d i o C a r o l i n e .

C o m m e r c i a l rad io has meant a drop in

the R a d i o One aud ience but not near ly

as great as wou ld be expec ted by the

commerc ia l rad io f i gu res . T h i s i n d i c a t e s

that commerc ia l rad io has to a large

extent c rea ted i t ' s own aud ience and

promoted a new awareness i n B r i t i s h

rad io ; a s i t ua t i on that N o e l i s qu i te

p l e a s e d about (and he s t i l l has 8 m i l l i o n

l i s t ene rs ! ) E v e n w i th the a t t rac t ion of

commerc ia l rad io N o e l i s very happy

where he i s and i s not in te res ted in

m o v i n g , he s e e s R a d i o One as c l o s e to

h i s i d e a l s ta t ron .

F i n a l l y what changes wou ld N o e l

l i ke to s e e ? He wou ld l i ke to see a

t ighter s t a t i on w i t h i t s o w n char ts and

more hours s o they c a n broadcast un t i l

Wimbledon magic flat

(Chrysa l i s C H R 1123)

I was rather look ing forward to th is L P

s i n c e thei r last ef for t , (whose t i t le I

can ' t mention because of the compet i t ion)

spanned the void between fo lk and rock

remarkably w e l l . P roduced by Womble

M ike Bat t the album was e x c e l l e n t and

won them many new f r i ends , a l though

los ing a few old t r a d i t i o n a l i s t s , who

fe l t they 'd gone too far w i th thei r up-tempo

arrangements .

Now, w i th Rocke t Co t tage , Span have

gone too far for even me to rave about .

F o l k devo tees have p layed it too have

been s h o c k e d . A t po in ts good l y r i cs

have been s a c r i f i c e d to a inept commerc ia l

arrangement, at o thers , s u c h a s Orfeo/

Nathan's Reel the treatment is too

c a s u a l and f l imsy that I got the fee l i ng

S tee leye were get t ing i ns i nce re about

their m u s i c .

My main c r i t i c i s m s must be vented on

'The Twelve Witches' and 'Sir John The

Rose'. The former has a mel la t ron intro

and in ter ludes that are just too bland for

th is sort of m u s i c . The lat ter takes up a

major chunk of the second s i d e . It has

only a tw ink l i ng of fo lk , the rest i s

punk rock and commerc ia l i t y . The

e x c e l l e n t l y r i c s ( t radi t ional ) . d e p i c t a

sad Sco t t i sh ta le — I wonder if the

R o l l e r s w i l l do a cover v e r s i o n ? With a

di f ferent producer th is may have come

off w e l l ; as it is it s m a c k s too much of

t he . worse end of the hit parade,, the

chorus e s p e c i a l l y .

On the other" hand the vamped up

j ig 'Sligo Maid' comes a c r o s s w e l l

but it won ' t p lease t rad i t iona l fo lk f ans .

S U M S However , for my part I felt the commanding

rhythm and en th ra l l i ng v i o l i n in tonnat ions

held the t rack together ex t remely w e l l .

H a v i n g got the bodies out the w a y , a

few words on the better s o n g s . My

favour i te is 'Fighting for Strangers'

(chorus mus ic 'To Be A Pilgrim') wh i ch

a s s e s s e s the mot iva t ion behind a

n ineteenth century s o l d i e r , pa in t ing a

rueful p ic ture of the l i m b l e s s v i c t i m s of

manmade s t r i f e . A very percep t i ve

treatment indeed . 'The Brown Girl' i s

another good number. Its main point is

the s t rong, v e r s a t i l e and en igmat i c v o c a l

treatment of Moddy P r i o r , who pounds

l i t e ra l l y through th is ' l o v e t radgedy ' .

T igh t instrumental work l e t s you g l i de

through the s o n g ' s con t ras t ing moods .

A b o v e ordinary and qu i te en th ra l l i ng — I

w i s h there were more t racks l i ke it on the

M a d d y ' s v o c a l s come over w e l l aga in

I hope by th is t ime thei r fo lk fans won ' t

have g i ven up hope.

Not a d a z z l i n g L P , and ce r ta in l y not

an appropr iate fo l low-up to thei r last h i t

a lbum. I th ink that M i k e Ba t t has overworn

the last L P he gave the band some needed

Judo Club

Ancient art is now fine all-round exercise Much mystery and confusion surrounds

the sport of judo. The gentle art of

judo was devised in 1882 by Dr Jigoro

Kano, who founded the Kodokan School

In Tokyo. Kano's ideas incorporated

many of the ancient jiu-jitsu techniques,

but his wish was to create a relatively

safe and healthy pursuit for the youth of

Japan and the rest of the world.

Judo can be regarded from two different

view points — the first self defence and

the second, sport. The confusion between

these two in the west arose from its

being taught to army and police personnel

primarily tor self defence and the way it

is used in many films. This is not to say

that the exponents of soort iudo would not

be at an advantage should they need to

defend themselves.

Judo is a line all-round exercise tor

people of all ages, developing body-

mind coordination, patience, consideration,

strength and endurance: Se i R y o k o Z e n

Y o — the full and most beneficial use of

all the faculties (Jigoro Kano). It can

be divided into several groups of tech­

niques — Osaekomiwaza (holding), Newaza

(grappling), Tachniwaza (throwing),

Shimewaza (strangling) and Kansetsuwaza

(arm-locking). The art of striking (Atemi-

waza) is not included in sport judo.

e

The IC Judo Club, for both men and

women, is one of the most active London

University clubs, having a large mat

(over 850 sq ft) and 1st Dan black belt

tuition. The club meets in the gym of the

Union in Prince Consort Road on Tuesdays

and Thursdays from 6.30 to 8.00. Gradings

are held regularly at the University of

London Union and at the Budokwai (one

of Europes leading clubs). The usual

evening consists ot a warm-up period,

falling practice (Ukemi), throwing

practice (Uchikomi) —where the techniques

are polished, a taught section with

related practice and finally Randori or

free practice. The evening ends with

loosening-up exercises, a warm shower

and some socialising in the downstairs

bar. Beginners are welcome at this club,

and tor those who are more experienced

there is also the opportunity to practise

at one of London's many non-university

establishments.

It is hoped this year that some inter-

college evenings can be arranged and

that the club will continue to be a lively

and friendly one.

There is also a black belt coach tor

Aikido. a very graceful and powerful

form of self defence; again it is for both

men and women.

On Sunday Imper ia l C o l l e g e

once a g a i n served as spar r ing

p a r t n e f s f o r D o n R e v i e ' s E n g l a n d

team, in preparat ion for the i r

match aga ins t F i n l a n d on

Wednesday . In a sp lend id

ma tch IC performed magn i f i cen t l y

and desp i te wor ld c l a s s oppos ­

i t i on were on ly de feated by a

s i ng l e g o a l .

s

S ince the E n g l a n d squad

was severe ly h i t by i n j u r i e s ,

they c o u l d f i e ld only nine men

for th is match and in order to

comple te the e l e v e n I C ' s P a t

Frampton and Welshman (!)

Gareth Rober ts made thei r

E n g l a n d debu ts . K e v A l l e n

and Dave F i n n i s a l s o won their

f i r s t caps by shar ing the

r e s p o n s i b i l i t y of keep ing

goal for Don R e v i e ' s team.

In goa l for IC was a p romis ing

youngster by the name o f

Pe te r S h i l t o n , w h o , d e s p i t e

h i s obv ious nerves i n the

ear ly s t a g e s , se t t l ed down and

had a f ine game.

l P l a y was very even through­

out the f i rs t h a l f and desp i t e

Frampton h i t t i ng the c r o s s bar

IC prevented E n g l a n d from

get t ing any c lea r cut c h a n c e s .

However , mid-way through

the f i rs t ha l f M i c k M i l l s w a s

put through by a long pass and

shot past the a d v a n c i n g Sh i l t on

to put E n g l a n d one up. Neve r ­

t h e l e s s , IC came back into the

game and near ly e q u a l i z e d

when a Steve B a t e s d r i ve was

w e l l s a v e d by K e v A l l e n . A

few minu tes before ha l f t ime

E n g l a n d sco red the i r s e c o n d ,

somewhat con t rove rs ia l g o a l .

Gordon H i l l worked a beau t i fu l

one- two w i th C h a r l i e George

and , a l though l ook ing s u s ­

p i c i o u s l y o f f s ide , s lammed

the b a l l into the b a c k of the

net.

CSo IC began the second hal f

two goa ls down but they

con t inued to p lay w i th great

de te rmina t ion , and by sheer

hard work refused to w i l t under

p ressu re . In fac t , IC themse lves

began to look dangerous w i th

some neat p a s s i n g in m id f i e l d

wh i ch brought about some good

breakaway a t t a c k s . T h e n , in

the las t minute , IC f i n a l l y got

the goa l they d e s e r v e d . The

b a l l was cent red from a corner

k i c k , P a u l He idn shot and

F i n n i s par r ied i t , he shot

aga in and the b a l l rebounded

off the pos t , even tua l l y H e i d n

shot for a th i rd time and the

b a l l f l ew into the back of the

net, 2—1. The f ina l w h i s t l e

went before E n g l a n d c o u l d

restar t the game and so ended

a pu l sa t i ng match i n w h i c h IC
