The Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Emrys Evans. Reading Enthusiasts It is to be hoped that maligners of Manchester's weather will notice that in these parts yesterday's partial eclipse of the sun was observed very successfully and that in spite of the official warning that it "was likely to be obscured by cloud." Will this bring down another rebuke in the Grandmother of Parliaments to our meteorologists for inaccurate forecasts Probably not, because in London, and many other parts of the country the spectacle is reported to have been obscured by low clouds and drizzle and if the forecasts are right for London the drafters of them can usually 'scape whipping.

It may have been noticed that when Mr. Arthur Henderson was dealing with Wednesday's charge in the Commons that the forecasters had gone wrong over the Easter one ofvhis defending points was that in recent months accuracy has improved to 90 per cent for forecasts of rain or no rain in the" London area." Get the weather right for London and quite half the battle has been won. On the Brighter Side As for the Easter weather, the fore tnen.presented to the new Chancellor the patent under the seal of the University conferring upon him the degree of Doctor of Laws and read an address irom the Academic Board. THE LOST GENERATION The new Chancellor, replying, said Wales was deeply indebted to those who by their foresight and persistence had founded the several colleges of the University in different parts of the country. His generation, although reasonably well schooled, was probably the worst educated of its age.

Mr. Fred Baker, Beadle of Stratford-on-Avon, who claims to have read Shakespeare's plays 433 times, must have achieved' a world record in that respect, beating even the late Sir Hugh Walpole. who for many years read an act ot one of the plays every "morning. Shakespeare, however, has been the only great writer to inspire such devotion. Byron, in his journal, recorded, "Read the conclusion for the fiftieth time (I have read all Walter Scott's novels at least fifty times) of 'The Legend of Sir Henry Hadow claimed to have read "Bleak House" twelve times, and Mr.

Compton Mackenzie stated some years ago that he had read Emma seventeen times and "Pride and Prejudice! twenty-four times. There was a seventeenth-century bishop, too, Pierre Huet, who from early -youth never failed each spring to reread the Idylls of Theocritus. As Huet lived to the age of ninety-two, Sainte-Beuve calculated that he must have repeated this labour of love well over seventy casters had a very problematical situation The war had cut short the opportunities for higher education. The oresent to deal with and there would have been immense drain upon all universities was a much louder outcry it they had plumped for fine and warm and if cold and wet bad wnoiiy due to that lost generation which was trying to make up for what it missed between 1939 and 1945. Bangor.

Thursday. Town and gown united here to-day to welcome Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh when they began their tour of North Wales by visiting the University College the Duke to be installed as Chancellor of the University of Wajes, the Princess to receive from him the honorary degree of Doctor of Music. The royal party was not due until 10 30 but crowds were out lining the pavements immediately after an early breakfast. Every parlour window was a packed grandstand few and forlorn were the childish hands which had no red, white, and blue favours to wave. If the display did not quite achieve the magnificence that greeted Queen Victoria in 1852, when the city erected nine triumphal arches, besides having bonfires and fireworks on the heights after dark.

Welsh Nationalists, students of Coles Bala (a Nonconformist theological college), added a distinctive touch.by hanging from an upper window a poster addressed to the Prime Minister, who was among those to receive honorary degrees. It read Is this a joke Attlee accepts Welsh degree but rejects Welsh Secretary," and was flanked by two pairs of decisively striped pyjamas. The Princess and the Duke were received at the station by the Lord Lieutenant of Caernarvonshire, Colonel W. H. Wynne Finch, and Mrs.

Wynne Finch, the High Sheriff. Mr. O. Percy Griffiths, and Mrs. Griffiths, and the Mayor and Mayoress of Bangor, Alderman and Mrs.

O. Glynne Owen. They inspected a detachment of the Territorial Army drawn up at the station exit before driving to University College, where for an hour past an expectant audience had filled the Prichard-Jones Hall. The college choir and quartet, which enlivened the waiting time with chamber-music and Welsh folk-songs, had rivals in a small body of students in the gallery, members of the Students Representative Council, which struck up Sospan Fach," interpolating college yells.

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra had no serious financial difficulties, although it enjoyed the proud distinction of being the only institution of any consequence in the country which is entirely self-supporting and does not depend -on the downtrodden and squeezed-out taxpayer for one farthing." Further, its members receive higher salaries than those of any other orchestra in the kingdom, about three times asmuch as the members of any Continental orchestra, and more than those of most American orchestras. The explanation of its freedom from financial care, said Sir Thomas modestly, is that "large numbers of people like to hear it play," and that since most of its work is done in and around London times. Among the Experts The visiting teacher from the county town was giving her first demonstration lesson to a class of nine-year-olds in an upland farm area. She had chosen as her subject "Wool." and started off by showing a large coloured picture of a sheep and remarking brightly. "Now I am sure you all know what this is." Much to her surprise there was no response to her implied question.

When she put it more pointedly one sturdy boy asked if he could see the picture nearer at hand. On permission being given with much wonderment, he surveyed it carefully and then hazarded, "It's a two-year-old Border-Leicester, isn't it degree of Doctor of Music from the new Rifle Club at Peterborough to form an fifteen years there will be no orchestras except one or two, perhaps," he said. His right hand sketched a gesture negligently despairing. Orchestras exist because people write for them, and nothing has been written for the past thirty years. The stream of creation is dead.

It is right and proper to play all music of any merit that comes out, but that does not mean that every work by a British composer which is hailed as a masterpiece will survive."

The other graduands were presented in alphabetical order, so that Lord Aberconway, of Bodnant Hall, president of the Royal Horticultural Society, who grew the orchids for Princess Elizabeth's wedding bouquet, preceded the Prime Minister. Dr. Evans said Mr. Attlee was honoured for those qualities which reflected without distortion the virtues of democracy.

A family to whose munificence Wales must be ever indebted was honoured by the degree awarded to Miss Margaret Sidney Davies, of Gregynog, who "has always done good by stealth and blushes to find it fame."

Opening bids of, three in a suit are so dangerous that it is wiser to eschew them with a strange partner of unknown calibre. They are only safe when playing one of the more precise systems familiar to botli partners. I doubt if any system-monger is completely happy in his treatment of these calls.

After thirty-odd years in big bridge even Culbertson is liable to recast his three-bid prescriptions, though I hope he will be loyal to his present conclusions, which impress me as the best available compromise. and Queen's University, Belfast, a noble In a snatched hour between the morning's authorship, the evening's Haydn and Mozart and Schumann, with Lady Beecham and the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, the rococo edifice of conversation tossed up its glittering pinnacles. When should we see the promised second volume of his autobiography, A Mingled Chime," awaited since 1944 At the end of this year, said Sir Thomas, and after it there would be more volumes, one every few years. The only, difficulty was to keep up with a world that was changing overnight. Change, it was clear, represented not threat but chaJJpnge to one whose own thirst for it has led him in his time to play most things, from football for Wadham to the big drum in the Rpssall Cadet Corps band.

"Really I don't see any reason why I should stop writing books," said Sir Thomas.

Acol will not bid 3C because the partner may be able to call spades. Now for the Culbertson gospel. He distinguishes sharply between an opening three-bid in major and minor suits respectively. This distinction is in no way arbitrary, but hard common sense. If I bid 3D or 3C my partner, holding mild strength in the other three suits yearns to bid 3NT.

Hence the 3D and 3C bids should be based on a completely solid suit of six. or seven cards, insuring as many tricks "at NT. But if I open 3S or 3H a final contract in my trump suit is desirable, so there may be one gap in its top honours. (Culbertson might concede two gaps if the major trump suit were eight or nine cards long.) Otherwise his prescription for the major or minor three bids are identical, namely: i.

He qualified his opinion, stated in his autobiography, that orchestral playing standards have risen since his early days as a conductor by saying that the individual accomplishment of the players to-day is no greater than it was thirty or forty years ago. What has happened is that, with increased musical opportunities, their repertoire has been gradually enlarged so that to-day a conductor can obtain from a good orchestra better results with fewer rehearsals than he could in the past.

An absolute maximum of 74 winners. Considerations of space force me to summarise system ideas rather briefly, but I give the main gist: This discussion of pre-empts shows Culbertson in sharp relief as depending on comparatively simple, logical, and precise requirements. He writes for the million. He does not credit his followers with enormous brains, and endeavours to protect them from frequent disasters, aware that even if they learn to bid correctly they will not always handle their cards faultlessly. Acol, on the other hand, is framed for the ranks of the clever, and especially for those who joy in duplicate.

It certainly makes searching demands on our intelligence. shoulder when a single bid is used to describe two widely different hands.
