Jamil Dangoor has
been a Chess Secretary of meticulous, efficiency
and unbounded enthusiasm. His work with the
juniors has been particularly praiseworthy and
the society could not have functioned so smoothly
without him. J.M.M.
THE FILM SOCIETY
As one might have
predicted, the Film Society has become more important
in the life of the school now that the Brighton
cinemas are no longer so accessible. Competition
is represented not by the Gaumont and Odeon but
by T.V., and the breaking of the semi-hypnotic
trance exerted by ' the box ' has been a
long-drawn-out struggle, accompanied by
histrionic groans from addicts of ' Danger Man '
and ' The Man from U.N.C.L.E.' Nevertheless the
range and general quality of the films shown has
been well up to the standard set in previous
years and the installation of the drop-screen and
double projector system has at last given us the
comfort and smooth running which we have sought
for so long. These material improvements would
have been of little use had not the film
projectionists-ably led by Eric Bendahan worked
so hard to make each show a success. They have
earned a debt of gratitude from all who have
enjoyed the films.
The feature films shown during the three terms
which comprised the 1965-66 season were as
follows:-
Lost Horizon, The Sheep has Five Legs, My
Favourite Spy, The Grapes of Wrath, Letter from
an Unknown Woman, Jane Eyre, A Matter of Life and
Death, II Posto, The Mouse that Roared, Follow
the Sun, Tout L'Or du Monde, Jamaica Inn, Dead of
Night, Ashes and Diamonds, Inherit the Wind,-
Boys will be Boys, The Dock Brief, All about Eve,
Edward and Caroline, Seven Days to Noon, La
Strada, The Best Man, Some Like It Hot, The
Gunfighter, II Generale delta Rovere, Mr. Deeds
Goes to Town, Viva Zapata, La Grande Illusion,
Five Against the House, I'm All Right Jack, Zero
de Condulte' Sitting Pretty, La Belle et
la BPte,'Twelve Angry Men, To Be or Not to Be,
The Devil's Disciple, The Trial, Red River, Woman
of the Dunes, The Wages of Fear, Les Liaisons
Dangereuses. J.M.M.
THE POTTERY CLUB
After much scrubbing and sweeping, members of
the club converted. what was once the
groundsman's storage hut into a pottery room. The
actual preparation of the hut was easy compared
with trying to cope with the numbers of boys
