Trust needs more for saving buildings By JOHN GRIGSBY, Local Government Correspondent THE Civic Trust yesterday called on the Government to allocate more money for the preservation of historic buildings. It said that since 1955, when the Historic Buildings Council, set up by the Conservative Government, got into its stride, its budget had increased, the 16-fold, Arts but Council the had increased 55-fold. The trust, condemned as paltry and the amount, under £6 million, which Historic Buildings Council has to spend. If we leave the council with its present teaspoon budget, more buildings will be left to rot or be demolished, more conservation areas will be neglected and we will be all the poorer." Staggering contrast' Mrs Jennifer Jenkins, chairman the council.

described the contrast in aid for the arts and for old buildings as staggering. She said in an interview in Civic Trust News: I think that national concern for the arts as compared with that for conservation is out of propor- WAY OF THE WORLD A Poor Look Out THE Royal Society for the Protection of Birds has been putting up barbed wire fences round its sanctuary sea birds on the Norfolk coast. But as soon as it puts them up local people set about demolishing them. that the fences prevethernew from reaching a quiet stretch of and using a public footpath; that they are denied their right to collect shingle and 'hat with the beach closed, vehicles could not get near the shore-line if there should be an accident at sea off that part of the coast. Here a conflict of interests which is going to get sharper and nastier as time goes on.

It applies not only to birds of endangered species but to animals and plants. More and more the only way to preserve these species from the incompatible existence and demands of people will be to put fences round them ordinary barbedwire today, tomorrow electrified wire, minefields and guardtowers with real machine-guns.

Bell Lane, Broxbourne, Herts, EN10 THE. SIR FERGUS GRAHAM, fifth baronet, of Netherby, who has died aged 85, was a member of one the most distinguished Border families and himself served as Lieutenant for Cumberland from 1958 to 1968. Part of Netherby, family home was built. in the 12th century, though it dates mostly from the 17th and 18th centuries. In more recent times, Sir Fergus's great-grandfather, Sir James Graham, was Home Secretary under Sir Robert Peel in 1841 and Secretary of the Admiralty in Lord Aberdeen's 1852 government of which Mr Gladstone was Chancellor of the Exchequer.

The Grahams of Netherby figure prominently in Border history and romance. It was. to marry Graham of Netherby that" Young Lochinvar swam the River Esk and eloped with his bride while a ball was in progress, as narrated in Sir Walter Scott's poem. War injury Graham Sir Fergus, who was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford, intended to adopt the Army as a career and joined the Irish Guards when war broke out in 1914. He was wounded in the head while leading a charge at Givenchy in February, 1915, and after a long illness was discharged from the Army as further service.

"Returning to Oxford he took a course in agriculture and after experience as a bailiff in Gloucestershire, returned to Netherby to manage his father's estate. He succeeded to the baronetcy in 1932. had two 'spells as a Conservative MP, for North Cumberland from 1926 to 1935 and for Darlington from 1951 to 1959. He became a prominent member of the Country Landowners' Association and was president in 1941-43. For many years from 1925 he was a member of Cumberland County Council and the patron of two livings.

He was a Deputy. Lieutenant for Cumberland before his appointment as Lord Lieutenant and in 1953 was appointed K.B.E. for political and public service. He scored remarkable success in the 1951 election, coming out of retirement to turn a Labour majority of 6,107 at Darlington into a Conservative win by 813 votes. He increased his majority to 2,581 in 1955.

In 1918 he married Miss Mary Reade, daughter of Raymond Reade, of Ipswich. Their son, Mr Charles Spencer Richard Graham, aged 59, succeeds to the baronetcy. RUDOLF KOLISCH Rudolf Kolisch, the Austrianborn violinist, who has died at Watertown, Massachusetts, aged 82, founded in 1922 the renowned Kolisch string quartet which did much to introduce the startling works of his brother-in-law Arnold Schoenberg and other dodecaphonic composers. The quartet's repertoire included standard classical and romantic works and its beauty of sound was a byword. Czech violin teacher Sevcik, Kolisch, a pupil of these great studied music theory with Schoenberg and Schreker' and began his career aseft virtuoso.

injury to his hand in early childhood compelled him to bow left-handed, a rare southpaw among professional violinists. His quartet gave, world premiere performances works by Schoenberg, Webern, Berg and Bartok, and played all over Europe and the United States. It disbanded in 1939 and Kolisch joined the Stradivarius Quartet. In later years he was artist in residence at the New England Conservatory of Music, Boston. Alexander MacLennan.

A splinter movement. the Anti-Our Jackie Fan Club, emerged but was suppressed by the remaining hardliners the original club by strong-arm. methods which are still spoken ore with a shudder.

After the death of Mr Onassis and the subsequent quarrels over his fortune between Our Jackie and our Christina, the suppressed Jackie Fan Club aced under the name of the "Our Christina Fan Club." only to be suppressed in turn. However, enough hardline elements remained to keep the club in being underground, and with the continuing uncertainty about the future of Our Jackie these elements emerged more and more openly, threatening the ideological position both of the Our Jackie Fan Club and of those few who still clung to the old Anti-Our Jackie line. Now (I hope you have followed this far) the resuscitated Our Christina Fan Club itself faces Several splinter groups, the proMoscow approve Our Christina's marriage and the international socialist-infiltrated group who disapprove on ideological grounds, as well as those who think Our Christina should have remained unmarried and those who think she should have married Lord Harlech, have emerged. This may be the historic moment which the rump of the Our Jackie Fan Club the Old have been waiting for: the chance to smash all those dissident groups at once and by the terror of typical housewives' dialectic, sawn-off umbrellas and irontipped handbags restore the true faith. Consensus To the my surprise "bugging I find that as think these things are called," which ordered, without misgivings, to be installed in the panel-beating shop of the Boggs Car Factory at Nerdley last year, is still there and still functioning.

That being so, I may as well give a short extract from the latest tapes. As before, I have of course altered names of the speakers. recording the, begins with loud but melodious snoring and. just audible, the sound of people walking on tiptoe. Jim: Hush, Fred.

I believe our fellow eater from India, Rashid Patel, evidently feeling over-tired from too much panel-beating, has fallen asleep! Fred: Yes, Jim. It certainly looks as if he having forty winks. Do you think we ought to wake him up, in case Mr Harrison, our shop-steward, should find him asleep and report the matter? It might mean that Rashid would lose his employment. Jim: Surely not, Fred. That would be a disgrace to our compassionate and caring society.

And I am sure that if the management were to commit such an act of injustice it would soon be set right by an appeal to one of the excellent tribunals we now have in this country to ensure that such acts of institutionalised violence and oppression do not go unrequited. Rashid would, am sure, soon be given his employment back, let us hope with substantial damages for his hurt feelings. Moreover. trust I am not wearying you? Fred (yawns loudly): Not at all, Jim. But I am feeling rather tired.

myself, what with one thing and another. Do you know, my dear fellow, I think I shall follow Rashid's example and take a nap myself. Jim: A capital notion. I shall the same. There is nothing like a mid-morning nap, I always say, to restore one's energy and keenness (after a pause, an enriched sound of snoring, three-note chord, is heard.

After another pause, a sound of footsteps). Mr Harrison: Well, well. This is a real sight for sore eyes, as the saying is. How noble, even beautiful, these multiracial panelbeating workers look as they rest after their labours. Should I wake them? Nay, that were a crime, no less.

(Yawns). Indeed the sight their peaceful slumbers makes me feel sleepy too. Yes, I really think. (after a pause, a new note, deep and vibrant, can be heard, completing noble chord of Flat Major). Peter Simple BRADFORD Pays INVESTMENTS p.a: Full Security.
