A SENIOR lecturer at theUniversity is developing a test toassess the quality of a child’srelationships.

The Child Relations Test whichis currently being developed byDr Andrew Parkin, SeniorLecturer in Child Psychiatry at theUniversity, assesses the child’sperspective of the emotionalquality of relationships withimportant people in his or her life.

Dr Parkin, honorary consultantin Child and AdolescentPsychiatry, said: “Children takingthe test are asked about theirfeelings for others, and what theythink others feel for them.

“The emotional development

and well-being of children areinfluenced by such relationships,but there are no tests thatsatisfactorily assess the child’sperspective of these. The test iscomputerised, making it attractiveto children, simple to administerand provides data that are readilyavailable for analysis.”

Dr Parkin added that thevalidity and reliability of the test iscurrently being assessed withchildren attending the local clinic.

“From previous surveys, thereis plenty of scope for the use ofthis test in clinical practice. It canalso be used in training and futureresearch,” said Dr Parkin.

TESTING TIME FOR CHILDREN

FAILURE to provide patients with proper information or makingthem feel unimportant could reduce their chances of recovery, sayUniversity researchers whose findings have been published inHealth Which?

Researchers in Eli Lilly National Clinical Audit Centre, whichforms part of the University’s Department of General Practice andPrimary Health Care, spoke to focus groups of hospital patientsabout their health care, and found that many patients felt left ‘inlimbo’ by the organisational structures of the health service.

Uncertainly in hospital is particularly distressing because patientsassume no news is bad news, according to Dr Hilary Hearnshaw andCarolyn Preston, who conducted the study.The following may all prove distressing:• not knowing what will happen after you get your test results• not knowing how long you will have to wait• being made to feel unimportant, eg when you see a junior doctor,not the consultant promised• a feeling of no control over treatment, eg when you ask forinformation and it isn’t provided.

Researchers say such feelings may hamper treatment by reducingpatient co-operation and may even cause patients to stop theirtreatment.

a central theme. The plan for theday also included rainforestadventures, jungle art, makingshelters and bivouacs, charcoalburning, coracle making, buildinga Tudor house and paper making,all carried out with greatenthusiasm by theschoolchildren.

Sir David joined many of thegroups of delighted youngsters tohave a few words about theirimaginative projects, as well as toanswer questions and signautograph books which weretreasured afterwards.

The workshops explored thevital importance of trees in thedaily lives of people in the BritishIsles and around the world, anddemonstrated the rich variety ofeducational activities that can beenjoyed at the University’sBotanic Garden and theArboretum.

A limited number of places forsecondary and sixth-formstudents were also available on aspecial workshop run by TimShepherd, one of thephotographers who worked withSir David on the television series,The Private Life of Plants, andwho has pioneered new

techniques in time-lapsephotography.

The SEED Project (Support forEducation in Environment andDevelopment) co-ordinated thepreparations for the Day. SEEDwas set up in 1993 to developthe educational use of theBotanic Garden, using its plantsand facilities in innovative ways toexplore global environmental,conservation and developmentissues.

Speaking at the inauguration ofthe SEED Project, Sir David said:“I see SEED as one of the mostvaluable educational projects wecan have. Without plants we

would starve, and we would haveno oxygen. I feel privileged tobe opening this initiative”.

The Arboretum, whichincludes a classroom and pond,

adds a new dimension to SEED’swork. Trees are being planted inthe order of their arrival in theBritish Isles since the last Ice Age,and this collection willcomplement the Botanic

Garden’s collection of plantsfrom around the world.

Sir David planted the latestaddition to the tree populationin the Arboretum - a fieldmaple (Acer campestre).

Curator of the BotanicGarden Dr Richard Gornall said:“The opening of the Arboretumand the inauguration of theSEED project by Sir David aretwo extremely important andexciting developments for theUniversity Botanic Garden.

“We had children from over40 schools attending, includingprimary, secondary and sixth-forms. The theme was ournative woodland - where it hasgone, what we have used it forand how we can look after whatis left. This theme was given aglobal perspective by drawingparallels with what is happeningcurrently to forests in thetropics.”

BUSINESS Leaders in the East Midlandshave given their backing to the bid to basea National Space Science Centre inLeicester.

After receiving a presentation on thescope of the project, the CBI’sinfluential East MidlandsRegional Council agreedto support theinitiative,spearheaded by theUniversity inpartnership with theCity, which isseeking MillenniumCommission funding.

CBI East MidlandsRegional Chairman, Mr PaulHodgkinson, said: “There wasstrong interest in the Centre which isundoubtedly an impressive and excitingproject planned for the heart of the region.

“It is a significant initiative which hasnational importance and members felt itwas appropriate to support an initiativewhich would be so closely allied to focusingon the process of technological change”.

The Council heard the project wouldaim to regenerate a derelict riverside

site at Abbey Meadows, Leicester,and provide a stimulus forinternational co-operation inspace research and technologyas well as a unique visitorattraction.

Mr Hodgkinson said: “TheEast Midlands economy would

certainly benefit greatly fromhaving such a high-profile Centre

based in the region. Clearly a greatdeal of work still needs to be done,not least in trying to win Millennium

funding.“We hope the project receives the

national support it deserves. Already anumber of private and public sectororganisations have pledged their supportand the CBI is pleased to join them.”

NSSC steering committee chairman MrJohn Eggleston urged colleagues in thebusiness community to embrace theprestigious project: “The National SpaceScience Project will be of tremendousbenefit to the Leicestershire businesscommunity,” he said.

“The project will secure around £40million of inward investment and lead tothe creation of over 80 permanent jobs.

“It does not matter who we speak to,everyone is tremendously excited aboutthe project. It really does offer somethingfor everyone,” he said.

ASTRONOMERS at the University have discovered the coolest brown dwarfso far identified.

Dr Richard Jameson, Dr Simon Hodgkin, David Pinfield and MartinCossburn found this object using telescopes in the Canary Islands and Hawaii.It is located in the Pleiades star cluster, commonly called the Seven Sisters.

The brown dwarf - dubbed PIZ1 - is a failed star with a surfacetemperature of just 2,000C, far less than others.

It is one of only four brown dwarfs ever recorded and the importantdiscovery may help reveal the secrets of the formation of stars.

Brown dwarfs may account for the dark matter that is believed to makeup 90 per cent of the total mass of the universe. Richard Jameson explains,“People have been looking for these things for a long time. Very few havebeen discovered but there must be a lot of them, probably as many as thereare stars. This brown dwarf is possibly the lowest mass brown dwarf yetfound, with a mass 48 times the mass of Jupiter. Its age is about 100 millionyears. One other brown dwarf could have a lower mass, but its mass isuncertain because its age is not known.”

The discovery was announced at the National Astronomy Meeting inSouthampton.

STAR DISCOVERY: UKIRT (UK Telescope) Hawaii used by the University.

A TEAM of astronomers ledby Dr Martin Barstow of theUniversity’s Physics andAstronomy Department hasused a group of white dwarfstars to probe the structureof interstellar space in thevicinity of the Sun.

Measurements made withthe Extreme UltravioletExplorer (EUVE) Satellitehave revealed that the localgas appears to be highlyionized in all directions. Thiscan only have happened asthe result of a nearbysupernova explosion. Theobserved fractions of ionized

hydrogen (27%) and helium(35%) indicate that thisexplosion occurred around 4million years ago.

Dr Barstow and his team,including Paul Dobbie(University of Leicester), JayHolberg (University ofArizona), Ivan Hubeny(Goddard Space FlightCentre) and Thierry Lanz(University of Utrecht), haveused the EUVE spectrometersto carry out detailedobservations of 13 nearbywhite dwarfs, using theshadowing effect of theinterstellar medium on the

white dwarf spectra tomeasure the density and levelof ionization.

Dr Barstow presented theteam’s findings at anInternational AstronomicalUnion Colloquium on “TheLocal Bubble and Beyond”,held in Garching, Germany inApril. A paper on the topicwas also published in the 21March issue of the MonthlyNotices of the RoyalAstronomical Society.

THE world-class reputation of the University’sspace research has led to a trans-Atlantic giftfrom an international businessman with afascination for astronomy.

Mr A K Velan, whose Canadian-based multi-national engineering company has a branch inWhetstone, Leicester, was so impressed by thework of the Physics and Astronomy Departmentat the University that he has personally donated£10,000 towards a new observatory.

On April 21, Mr Velan visited Leicester toopen officially the new observatory in ManorRoad, Oadby, accompanied by the University’sVice-Chancellor, Dr Kenneth Edwards, DrRichard Jameson, senior lecturer in the Physicsand Astronomy Department, and othermembers of the University.

Dr Jameson said: “We are delighted that MrVelan has made this generous gift and that hewill perform the opening of the newobservatory.

“We have an olderobservatory at ManorRoad with a fairly oldfashioned, 16-inchtelescope. Now thatwe have this new 12-inch telescope we willbe able to use the twotogether - which isideal. The newtelescope is a neaterand tidier model, andhas the advantage ofbeing computercontrolled.

“We will be able to mount instrumentspermanently on one of the telescopes and sincewe can use the other for visual observations, wewill not have to keep on removing theinstruments. It will facilitate taking photographsand will help advance our research.”

The new telescopealso has a filter thatblocks much of the lightfrom sodium lights. Thisminimisesthe effect oflight mass which isalways a problem in acity such as Leicester

Mr Velan spokeenthusiastically of hissupport for the bid tothe MillenniumCommission by theUniversity and the Cityof Leicester for the

creation of a National Space Science Centre, andhis desire for continuing involvement with theDepartment.

DONATION ALLOWS UNIVERSITY TO BUILD ON SUCCESS

STAFF and students in theDepartment of Zoology aredelighted at the discovery of a newworm - described as a ‘livingfossil’.

The type of velvet worm,thought to be new to science, hasbeen discovered by student MissBeverley Sherbon (23). She foundthe worm while researching forher PhD. She plans to give the 36-legged creature an official namewhen she publishes her thesis thisyear.

Miss Sherbon discovered thenew species in a batch of SouthAfrican velvet worm samples sentto her by research associates fromCape Town University. Velvetworms are in fact neither wormsnor anthropods but a phylum oftheir own which live in leaf litterand eat other small creatures.

Miss Sherbon said: “It wasreally special. I was surprised anddelighted to find this new species.I love my animals and it is brilliantfor me to be able to name my ownspecies.”

The worm is less than 5 cmlong, the same as another rareSouth African velvet worm. Thenew species is brown with a red-

orange head. It also developsdifferently to other species ofvelvet worm.

“This worm grows all in onego,” said Miss Sherbon. “Normallythe worm adds segments one byone.”

The new worm doesn’t grow insegments, instead its body growsall at once in an elongated bag offluid, a bit like a sausage.

Dr Muriel Walker, senior

lecturer in Zoology, said: “We arereasonably convinced this is a newspecies of worm. It is only thesecond worm to be found todevelop in this way.”

“The other one, Opisthopatus,was found in South Africa at theturn of the century but it was onlydiscovered that it developed non-segmentally seven years ago.”

She added: “Velvet worms areliving fossils as they are considered

to have existed prior to the break-up of Gondwanaland. Areas inwhich they are currently foundinclude the West Indies, parts ofCentral and South America, SouthAfrica, Australia and NewZealand.”

She added that the worms, indifferent parts of the world,exhibited different reproductivestrategies although earlyembryonic development followsthe same basic pattern where theembryo grows by the addition ofsegments from a posterior growthzone.

“It was particularly exciting forme to discover a few years agothat in one of the South Africanspecies, early development followsa completely different pattern andmy graduate student has beenmaking a comparison ofmorphological aspects of the twopatterns,” said Dr Walker.

She added: “It was a doublebonus to find a species that has notbeen previously described and tofind that it too demonstrated thedifferent pattern of development.”

CONCERN for thedeclining numbers of arare fallow deer has beenvoiced by a Universityprofessor.

Professor ofEnvironmental Biologyand Head of Zoology,Professor Robert Smith,said the rare strain oflong-haired fallow deerwas confined to theMortimer Forest inShropshire.

The world’s entirepopulation of the deer,numbering 100, is close to

extinction due topoaching. The BSE crisishas increased demand forvenison and it is thoughtthat poachers have killedmany of the rare deer.

The long-haired fallowdeer was first recognisedin the fifties. ProfessorSmith said the strainevolved after a single genemutation.

RARE DEER IN PERIL

IMAGINE a painkiller 200 timesmore powerful than morphinebut without the side effects ofconventional painkillers! And,what is more, a compound thatmay hold hopein the future forsufferers fromAlzheimer’sDisease!

The key tothe mystery liesin the heart ofSouth America,in one of thetoxic substancessecreted by thebrightlycoloured treefrog,Epipedobatestricolor,currently underinvestigation byDr JohnMalpass, of the ChemistryDepartment.

Discovered only in 1992, thecompound called epibatidinefired the enthusiasm of manyresearchers because of itsmedical implications and itsunusual structure. It is the firstnatural product which has thisparticular structural type and hasnow been made in the laboratoryby a number of research groups

so that there is no need to workwith the frogs themselves.

Dr Malpass and his researchteam have already discoveredways of producing variants on

this new structure intheir Leicesterlaboratory, and as a result he hasbeen invited to talk about hiswork as far afield as the Far Eastand Australia.

The naturally occurringcompound, epibatidine, cannotbe used safely since it also hastoxic properties. Dr Malpasssees the design of more potentand selective variants as the way

ahead. He is co-operating with amajor pharmaceutical company intesting new compounds made atLeicester and is developing waysof extending the range ofcompounds available andmodifying their properties.

The research team has madecompounds inwhich parts ofthe epibatidinestructure aregrafted on tomolecularfragments similar

to those found in naturalproducts from well-known plantssuch as deadly nightshade andcoca. The new compounds aremade in steps from simplechemicals and the frogsthemselves are not involved atall.

Already, researchers havediscovered that epibatidine acts

in a completely different wayfrom morphine and otheropiates, and this has given reasonto believe that it may hold a clueto reducing the symptoms ofAlzheimer’s disease.

The particular site in thecentral nervous system

(receptor) whichis targeted bynicotine may holdthe key. Despiteits addictive andtoxic nature,nicotine has anumber of very

positive properties in terms ofbrain functions such as memoryand cognition and can also reducethe effects of Alzheimer’sDisease. Surprisingly, epibatidineis much better than nicotine itselfat binding to this key receptorand hence the search for evenmore active compounds is underway.

Speaking of his research, DrMalpass said : “We have beenworking with compounds veryclose to epibatidine for manyyears. Nature still holds manysecrets and the discovery of thispowerful small molecule from atiny frog has given our work atremendous boost in the searchfor therapeutically usefulcompounds.”

GIANT LEAP: Dr Malpass says the discovery of apowerful small molecule from a tiny frog has given atremendous boost to the search for therapeuticallyuseful compunds.

RENOWNED for the discovery ofthe revolutionary DNA geneticfingerprinting technique, theUniversity staged a majorconference designed to bridge thegap between the work of thescientist and the sleuth.

Science and the Investigation ofSerious Crime examined howexpertise ranging from forensicaccountancy, ‘brick fingerprinting’,soil analysis, psychology andarchaeology can help to trackdown killers and to solve othercrimes.

Whether assisting in theinvestigation of new crime, orhelping to correct past injustices,

forensic science retains a very highprofile in the news. Indeed, it isoften commented that scientifictechniques hold the key to thefuture of criminal investigationsand there is major investment inresearch and development.

Jerry Hart, from the University’sProfessional Development Unit,said: “New technology, evolvingtechniques and continual re-structuring in the police servicecreate a constant challenge bothfor investigators and scientists toremain fully aware of what forensicscience can do for them.

“The principal aim of theconference was to help delegates

acquire a greater awareness ofhow science can contribute to thesuccess of their work. We hopethat this event and others like ithave helped to break downprofessional barriers betweendetectives, scientists and othertypes of expert — all of whommay employ different approachesto problem solving.

Senior investigating officers,police scientific managers andforensic scientists attended theconference. Presentations focusedon the application of a range ofsubjects, including accountancy,archaeology, biochemistry,entomology, geography, geology,

pathology, psychology andzoology.

“Keynote speakers includedSenior Treasury Counsel NigelSweeney, Senior Scientific AdvisorDavid Barclay of the ForensicScience Service, DetectiveSuperintendent Andy Brown ofWest Yorkshire Police who is anexpert on paedophileinvestigations, Chief InspectorStuart Kirby of LancashireConstabulary.

The two-day event wassupported both by the NationalCrime Faculty, Bramshill, and theForensic Science Service.

EXPERTS in the Medieval World havejoined forces to launch a new centre at theUniversity.

The Medieval Research Centre has itsbase in the English Department and theinnovative venture will focus oninterdisciplinary collaboration within theUniversity.

Established to co-ordinate research inmedieval subjects across the Faculty ofArts, the Centre will sponsor conferences,colloquia, and a programme of lecturesand seminars by local and visitingspeakers.

Affiliated to it are scholars in theDepartments of Archaeology, History ofArt, English, History, English Local History,and in the School of Modern Languages,

with research interests in fields rangingfrom late classical archaeology to thecultural history of the reign of Henry VIII.

The Centre’s first director is Dr GregWalker, reader in English, who, with DrElaine Treharne, lecturer in EnglishLanguage and Medieval English Literature,is also a member of its ManagementCommittee and Board of Studies. A thirdmember of the department, Dr JulieColeman, lecturer in English Language andLiterature, is also affiliated to the Centre,and will contribute to a planned MAprogramme.

“The Centre is intended to provide thefocus of a lively postgraduate culture, withmembers studying for research degrees inthe full range of disciplines represented

within thefaculty,” explainedDr Walker.

“It is also intended to add to this culturethrough the introduction of a new andinnovative taught master’s programme,the MA in Medieval Culture: Evidence andInterpretation.”

The Centre will be formally launchedwith a public lecture by Janet Backhouse,Curator of Medieval Manuscripts at theBritish Library on Friday, July 11, at5.30pm in Lecture Theatre I in theUniversity’s New Building. The lecture,which is being run in association with theUniversity Library, as part of theprogramme of events to mark theLibrary’s 75th Jubilee.

THE new University musicprogramme brings a definite touchof summer in the air.Music for a May Night(Wednesday 14 May)features music byHandel, Mozart,Schubert, Berlioz,Verdi and Ravel,and is devised anddirected by RobertKenny. Soloists will beSara Norris (soprano),James Gilchrist (tenor), LouisaPhillips (mezzo-soprano), RobertClarke (bass) and Moira Finch(piano).

THE University’s honorary graduands havespoken of their delight at being honouredby the University in the summer degreecongregations. The following are extractsfrom some of the comments received:

Sue Cook:“I am absolutelydelighted to havebeen asked toaccept an HonoraryDegree at LeicesterUniversity. I feelreally moved thatmy old Universityshould recognisemy broadcastingcareer in this way.

“Just as this year marks a double anniversaryfor Leicester, it also coincides with a specialanniversary for me, as 1997 is my twentiethyear as a television and radio broadcaster.

“I have so many memories of my time atLeicester University. Those three years weremy watershed between childhood andadulthood. I had chosen to do my degree atLeicester University as, at that time, it was theonly University to offer a ‘Combined Honours’course. So I was able to study three subjectsalong with Psychology (English, Archaeologyand Sociology) instead of having to choose justone.

“I was also able to blossom socially, gettinginvolved with exploits like singing in a rockgroup; serving on the EntertainmentsCommittee, booking bands like Pink Floyd andThe Move; standing for Deputy President ofthe Students’ Union (I didn’t get in, but in thoseearly feminist days, I was the first femalestudent in the University’s history to havestood for such a post) and being Rag Queenone year, dressed for some reason, in adreadful yellow plastic frock.

“I am particularly looking forward to thepresentation ceremony in July, as I had to missreceiving my BA back in 1971. I was sufferingwith a severe abscess on my tooth at the time.Now my parents will get their proud momentafter all!”

Dr Heather Couper:“I have always been sograteful to Leicester forhaving so much faith inme. After all, youtook me in on two Esand an A, had theindignity of watchingme undertake twosubsidiary mathsresits, and then had

the grace to award me an upper Second.“I am over the moon with your offer of an

Honorary Doctorate - it means a great deal tome.”

Her ExcellencyDame RosalynHiggins:“ I am delighted tobe receiving anhonorary degreefrom the Universityof Leicester, whichhas a long traditionof high qualityteaching in lawand ininternationalrelations.

It is a University whose teaching ofinternational law is marked by commitment anddrive.”

Dr Jeff Hoffman:“I have had acontinuingrelationship withLeicesterUniversitythroughout myprofessionalcareer.

“In my lastyear as agraduate studentat HarvardUniversity in

High EnergyAstrophysics, I received a fellowship allowingme to continue my studies anywhere in theworld. I asked several colleagues for theirrecommendations, and it was clear that in thethen small but emerging field of X-rayastronomy, the group at Leicester University,under the leadership of Ken Pounds, stood out,and I chose to spend the next year at Leicester.

“One year stretched into three-and-a-halfyears. When I finally returned to the UnitedStates, I had an English wife and a two-month-old son.

“Professionally, I had gained valuableexperience designing and carrying out rocket-borne X-ray astronomy experiments.

“I had also gained valuable experience on theEuropean continent, representing our Leicestergroup in joint projects with the Max PlanckInstitute in Munich and the European SpaceTechnical Center (ESTEC) in Noordwijk,Holland. I participated in the design of aEuropean X-ray astronomy satellite, EXOSAT,that was eventually launched after I had already

become an astronaut. “Although the technical and scientific level of

the group was high, the size was small, so Itook on tasks relatively more responsible than Imight have worked on had I remained in a largegroup in the USA. This was extremely usefulin developing my professional competence.

“I have maintained a personal relationshipwith my friends and former colleagues atLeicester University ever since I left. Sincebecoming an astronaut, I have returned toLeicester every few years to give talks aboutmy space activities and to keep up with theexciting work that is going on at Leicester.

“I have been pleased to watch the continuingevolution of the X-ray astronomy group atLeicester University. It is much larger andtechnically more sophisticated than when I wasthere, but this mirrors the progress that hasbeen made in space technology over the pasttwenty years. Space exploration has becometruly international, and

Leicester’s space activities show this just asdo many of NASA’s.

“Of course the ability to participate fruitfullyin international projects depends on thepossession of unique capabilities in one’s owngroup, and the Leicester Physics Departmenthas maintained an admirable technologicalcutting-edge base and considerable depth inspaceflight operational experience which it canoffer to its partners in future endeavours.

“I look forward to seeing what newsuccesses the future will bring.”

Sir Dai Rees:“The University ofLeicester is anoutstandinginternational centrefor research in thebiomedical sciences,and it has been agreat pleasure towork with theresearchcommunity hereon theirimaginative plans

with the Medical Research Councilover the past ten years. I am greatly honouredby the award of this degree.”

OVER recent years, thetrend has been towardsdifferent patterns of carefor patients with diabetes.Hospital clinics see lessthan half of these patientson a regular basis.Special clinics or regularcheck-ups for patientswith diabetes (organisedby GPs and practicenurses) have been setup, and around a third ofpatients now attendtheir general practice inthis way. Theremainder may be atrisk, through lack ofregular care, of endingup with complicationswhich could havebeen avoided.

Dr ElizabethGoyder, who holds aHealth ServiceResearch TrainingFellowship, fundedjointly by the Medical ResearchCouncil and Trent RegionalOffice at the University’sDepartment of Epidemiologyand Public Health, is trying todiscover whether there is arelationship between the patternof routine care for diabetes and apatient’s risk of being admittedto hospital.

“In total, my study hasincluded over 1,000 people withdiabetes from a randomly-selected group of generalpractices”, explains Dr Goyder,“and we are now in the processof analysing the results to seewhat lessons can be learnt”.

Previous research looking intowhy people with diabetes areadmitted to hospital has been

entirely based ondetails taken from patientsattending hospital clinics. As DrGoyder points out, this group isalready scrutinised moreintensely than most.

She is convinced that researchfocusing on experiences ingeneral practice is overdue. “Asa doctor who has worked indiabetes clinics in both hospitaland general practice, I have beenstruck that however much wetry to do for those we see, thereis an important group whom wedon’t currently see on a regularbasis, and for whom we could bedoing a whole lot more”.Diabetes care is also a goodexample of an area where thereis a need for studies to see howprimary and hospital care areinterrelated.

Research of this kind ingeneral practice should help toresolve uncertainties over thebest way to organise care forcommon conditions like diabetesand promote better care for allour patients.

•‘In the adult population,

diabetes is on theincrease, and at currentrates, one in ten peoplewill develop diabetes atsome stage in their life’

A NEW GENERATION,MAINTENANCE FREE,UNIVERSAL DC MOTORFOR ENERGY EFFICIENTAPPLICATIONSA Lincolnshire company, MarshallBarry (Lincoln) Ltd, has beensuccessful in winning a SMARTaward for Innovation for thedevelopment of technologylicensed to them from theUniversity of Leicester. The awardwas made to Roger Hobby, itsManaging Director, by the Rt HonGreg Knight MP, Minister forIndustry at a ceremony inPrestwold on 29 November lastyear.

The company was awarded£45,000 over a year period (againstan overall budget of £ 62,000). Theproject aims are to design andassess the feasibility of a new typeof energy efficient, variable speed,universal DC electronicmotor/generator drive.

Recently a number of newelectric motor applications have

arisen, where a newcompact, highperformance,robust, zeromaintenanceelectrical machine isrequired. For thescope of theSMART award, thisnew motor isintended primarilyfor the electrictraction market.However, otherspecialist highvolume applicationswill be looked at,for example,lawnmowers, electric drills, andwashing machine drives, etc. Thevast majority of these examplesutilise the universal brushed motor.This commonly used motor is idealfor intermittent and variable speedapplications. However, thebrushed universal motor has anumber of short comings, whichthe new motor drive will

overcome. Furthermore, with suchhigh volume applications a smallsaving in the efficiency of themotor together with a lower costof manufacture, could lead to a

significant saving in terms ofnational energy consumption, aswell as providing “UK Ltd” with avery competitive motor for thedomestic product market.

Other possible applications forthe proposed motor arenumerous, including thereplacement of existing mains orgrid connected machines,particularly where the applicationwould best require the use of a

variable speed drive.Here the feasibilityof a retrofit design isbeing looked at,where the frame ofthe existing machinemay be recycled tofurther lower thecost of manufacture.

The technology,developed by DrPaul Lefley in theDepartment ofEngineering is thesubject of aEuropean patentapplication filed bythe University whichhas been licensed to

Roger Hobby for the purpose ofthis project. Modelling of themotor has progressed favourablyand the team are currently buildingthe first prototype.

SCARMAN CENTREA special issue of the International Journal of Risk,Security and Crime Prevention focuses on thetopic of risk and profit. It is edited by Dr EdwardBorodzicz and Dr Alice Hills of the ScarmanCentre. • In the ‘personal opinion’ section of this specialissue, Dr Sally Leivesley, an internationalconsultant in business continuity, suggests thatrisk management can be a ‘powerful processthat boardrooms can use to generate newprofits’.

Dr Alice Hills says ‘taking this advice seriouslycould turn losses to profits. In addition toobvious financial advantages the changesadvocated by Dr Leivesley could result in a newand welcome role for risk managers’.

• Professor BrianToft argues thatorganisations canlearn to manageand assess threatsmuch moreeffectively. Toftargues thatknowledge, andthereforeforesight, can begained throughunderstandingevents which havealready occurredin otherorganisations andwhich operatesimilar systems.

important commission within theDepartment of Health’s newinitiative on refocussing children’sservices, the main thrust of whichis that that the different servicesresponsible for children’s welfare,such as Health, Education andSocial Services should work moreclosely together.

Furthermore, because of thecurrent split of Social Services intoadult provision and services forchildren, the needs of the family asa whole are not always adequatelyaddressed. The Department ofHealth’s overview of studies onchild protection, to which theSchool of Social Work contributedtwo key studies, showed that theproblems of domestic violence,mental illness, and alcohol andsubstance abuse in parents werenot fully appreciated.

Another ongoing study at theSchool of Social Work (for theDepartment of Health) on theneeds of children in the communityhas added further evidence aboutthe need for social workers todefine risk to children in wider

terms than direct harm. Forexample, children may be at riskfrom witnessing physical violencebetween parents although they arenot themselves being assaulted.

This study will provide guidancefor policy makers and practitioners

on the impact of parents’ problemson the children. The results will bewidely disseminated nationally incollaboration with the SocialServices Inspectorate.

ANEW University service which workswith the cooperation of developers inthe uncovering of archaeological sites of

major interest, is causing a stir over its unearthingof some of the most spectacular finds ever madein Leicestershire.

ULAS (University of Leicester ArchaeologicalServices), the professional arm of the University’sSchool of Archaeological Studies, was createdjust over a year ago and in that short time hasmade some of the mostfascinating county discoveries ofrecent decades.

The day-to-day work ofrunning the Unit is carried out byRichard Buckley and Patrick Clay.Teamwork with developers hasquickly brought about someexceptional results and endorsedthe School’s very high researchreputation which resulted in anaward of a grade 5 in the recentnational Research AssessmentExercise.

Under the leadership ofProfessor Graeme Barker, Headof the School of ArchaeologicalStudies, ULAS has forgedexcellent working relations withthe local authorities concernedwith the management of thearchaeology of the region, and with the majorlocal employers who have funded itsarchaeological researches in the path ofdevelopment.

There have been some remarkable discoverieswhich have made important contributions to theknowledge of the region’s history from earliesttimes to the industrial revolution.

THE School has strengthened itscommitment to the region’sarchaeology, and promoted the public’s

understanding and appreciation of its importance.“The archaeology of the Midlands is as

undersung as so many other aspects of Midlandslife and culture, yet we have on our doorstepsome of the finest and most excitingarchaeological landscapes anywhere in the UK,”says Professor Barker.

“The academic staff have expertise, andinternational reputations; the School is

recognised worldwide for its trainingprogrammes and research activities in landscapearchaeology, environmental archaeology andhistorical archaeology. Fieldwork includes avariety of excavation and survey projects in theMidlands, at several other locations in Britain andin France, Spain, Italy, Greece, Moldova,Sarawak, Libya and Jordan.

“The School has always had astrong commitment to thestudy of the archaeologyof the Midlands, and ofLeicestershire inparticular,” explainsProfessor Barker.

“In recent years, our programme hasincluded surveys and excavations in collaborationwith Leicestershire County Council’s Museums

Service, and specialist work inarchaeological science, for example,with animal bones, plants, seeds andhuman bones.

“The strength of ULAS is that it isembedded in a leading department ofarchaeology,” said Professor Barker.

“An archaeological excavation is by definitiondestructive and non-repeatable; also it is notsome kind of giant vacuum-cleaner, which willsuck up all ‘the facts’ from the site no matterhow skilled or unskilled the operator.

“In other words, the questions asked aboutthe site by the excavator determine the methodsused to excavate it, and the methods used willdetermine the kind of evidence collected, andthe conclusions reached about the site.

“So there is an inextricable link betweentheory and practice in all field archaeology, and inthis vital respect ULAS can draw on excellent

academic resources and laboratory facilities toprovide a service of the highest quality.”

During its first year of operation, most of the144 projects undertaken by ULAS have directlyresulted from conditions placed on developmentas part of the planning process, or in anticipationof such conditions in the case of pre-planning

enquiries.The projects range from

watching briefs, desk-basedassessments, evaluations,consultancies, surveys, post-

excavation analyses, standingbuilding surveys, excavations

to post-excavationassessments.

Richard Buckley and Patrick Clay, assistantdirectors of ULAS explain that enshrined withinthe process is a straightforward principle -covering both archaeological and environmentalconsiderations - that a developer must provideevidence of what, if anything, will be affected bythis development, and measures he willundertake to mitigate any damage.

‘Development’ is taken to mean anything fromroad schemes, opencast mines, pipelines andstructures to demolition or alterations to

standing buildings.

ULAS hasbeen involved in the following majorprojects:• A pipeline project saw ULAS working withAnglian Water in the Wing to Whatboroughsection where Iron Age and Roman periodsettlement was found. Round houses were foundwhich may date from the early first millenniumBC and another rare piece of archaeology was apit of possible Mesolithic date.

Field officers Matthew Beamish and LyndenCooper said that the greatest excitement on thesite was an in situ flint knapping area of probablyLate Upper Palaeolithic date (after the end of thelast Ice Age, between about 10-12,000 BC)

AN archaeological assessmentand survey of Leicester Abbeyhas recently been undertakenby University of LeicesterArchaeological Services onbehalf of Leicester CityCouncil to assist them withtheir Abbey Park Restorationand Development Project.The work was concentratedin the Abbey Grounds, to thewest of the River Soar, whichcontain the excavated plan ofthe medieval abbey, one ofthe wealthiest Augustinianhouses in the country,together with the ruins ofCavendish House, a 16th -17th century mansion.

Results show that anorthern enclosure of stonewalls, gatehouse and towerscontained the abbey buildingsand perhaps date from asearly as the 13th century.The southern enclosure,

probably late 15th -16thcentury, includes thenationally important (butlittle known) AbbotPenny’s wall of about1500. This is of brick, andbears diaper patternsincluding heraldic andother devices incontrasting blue brick.The survey indicates thatCavendish House wasbuilt, with pseudomilitary features such asarrowslits, presumablyto enhance the‘romantic ruins’.

The survey ofCavendish House hasindicated that rathermore of the shell ofthis mansion survivesthan hithertosupposed, and hasconfirmed that itprobably incorporated

the remains of themain abbeygatehouse when itwas built in the late16th century,probably by theHastings family.

The project has notonly provided goodbackground

information for planningfuture interpretation ofthe site, but alsoessential data for theconservation,maintenance andpreservation of bothabove and below-groundarchaeology on site. It ishoped that a further phaseof fieldwork may beundertaken involving trialtrenching to clarify the planof the abbey buildings andCavendish House.

ABBEY PARK - A NEW SURVEY AIDS DEVELOPMENT

located on boulder clay at the extreme west ofthe ironstone ridge.• A Bronze Age burnt mound, at WatermeadCountry Park, Birstall.Excavations by ULAS at a gravel excavationquarry in Birstall followed the discovery of twohuman skulls by wardens in the WatermeadCountry Park, along the River Soar.

Funded by English Heritage and EnnemixConstruction Materials, the ULAS team led bySusan Ripper uncovered part of an ancient bridgeor landing stage which had extended across thequarry. The bridge appeared to be crossing apeat -filled channel, perhaps an old course of theRiver Soar.

THE next discovery was the remains ofcooking activity, known as a burntmound. This consisted of a stone lined

hearth; a circular trough with its base lined withtimber planks and consolidated sides; anothersmaller, charcoal-filled pit; a ditch; a gully and alarge spread of fire-cracked flints and ash.• An Iron Age enclosure at Leicester Lane,Enderby.Centre 21 Ltd, with the co-operation of theircontractors Barton Plant Ltd., funded work on anIron Age enclosure at Leicester Lane, Enderby.Excavation led by Jim Meek revealed anenclosure measuring about 1.89 hectares. Thiswork, together with earlier excavations, showsthat there was extensive Iron Age settlement inthis area of the Soar Valley. The value of the

discoveries highlights the transition fromunenclosed to enclosed settlement types and amove to the period of the Later Iron Age.

Importantly, fourteen circular buildings in thearea have now been recorded providing thelargest sample of Iron Age structures fromLeicestershire and including some of the largestexamples from Britain.

• Iron Age and Roman Occupation at GartreeRoad, Oadby.The site for the new University playing fields inOadby which lies adjacent to the major Romanroad to Colchester (known locally as GartreeRoad) had already revealed artifacts such asfourteen coins of first to fourth century date,three brooches, a bronze votive axe and abracelet close to a pond along the northernboundary of the field.

A burial vessel was found of the late first tosecond century AD which was associated with ahuman burial. A skeleton was found with itsarms folded across its body. Analysis latershowed that the bones were that of a young manand the vessel had probably been deposited withthe burial. Two Roman buildings werediscovered. This work was supervised by Susan

Ripper.By excavating the University playing fields

development a range of unexpectedarchaeological discoveries was produced. Theseindicated that there was settlement from the lateIron Age to the Roman times. • Bronze Age burials and Anglo-Saxonsettlement at Eye Kettleby near MeltonMowbray.

A LARGE excavation was undertaken byULAS last autumn of a major siteadjacent to the deserted medieval

village of Eye Kettleby in advance ofredevelopment. It was directed by Neil Finn andfunded by Wilson Bowden Properties andSamworth Brothers Ltd. The earliest occupationconsisted of ceremonial enclosures of BronzeAge date with over 70 cremation burials, some ofwhich were in large pottery urns. Evidence wasalso uncovered of an Iron Age boundary, markedby pits and a ditch, a metalled road - possiblyRoman - and an extensive Anglo-Saxonsettlement of the 5th - 8th centuries AD. Thelatter included evidence of a large number oftimber halls, sunken featured buildings (probablyused as weaving sheds), enclosures and hearths.Settlements such as this are rare finds indeed,and of national importance, but the site is alsoexceptional in that it was possible to chart thechanging landscape for a large area over a periodof nearly 300 years - from the Bronze Age tomedieval periods.

‘A skeleton was found with its armsfolded across its body. Analysis latershowed that the bones were that of a

young man.’

75TH ANNIVERSARY OFGEOGRAPHYAS it was in the beginning...

G eography was one of the firstdisciplines offered by the newUniversity College with Miss Gladys

Sarson, a local grammar school teacher, beingresponsible for the teaching on a part-timebasis. The following year P W Bryan, agraduate of LSE, was appointed as a full-timelecturer. For the next thirty years Geographyat Leicester was synonymous with Pat Bryan.Besides being head of department, he was Vice-Principal for over twenty years and chairman ofnumerous Boards. Even so, he found time tomake scholarly contributions. In 1924 he wasawarded a doctorate by the University ofLondon, one of the first awarded by a Britishuniversity. His thesis was published in the sameyear as part of a book, North America, writtenwith L L Rodwell Jones, which remained in printuntil 1968. This was followed in 1933 by Man’sAdaptation of Nature: Studies in CulturalLandscape, a magnum opus which was

conceptually far ahead of its time.These early years were ones of intense

struggle, with Bryan and Sarson teachingthe entire syllabus. Between 1926 and1939 only fifteen students graduated inGeography, the first being Walter Baker in1926. Accommodation was limited to a lectureroom and a practical room which containedsome surveying equipment and a few maps.With the recognition of the University College bythe UGC in 1946 new staff and resourcesbecame available, one of the first additions beinga young technician, Terry Garfield, who was to

be a stalwart of the departmentuntil retirement in 1992.

By 1950, there were fournew lecturers, Charles Fisher,Joe Jennings, Roy Millward, and

Clifford Smith, all of whomwere to make significantcontributions to thediscipline. Even so, thenumber of graduates duringthe fifties rarely exceeded20 annually. Upon Bryan’sretirement in 1954, NormanPye was appointed head ofdepartment. The moststriking feature of ProfessorPye’s era was to be the

transformation of this tinydepartment, geared to London Universityexaminations, into the major research andteaching department which he handed over, onhis retirement in 1979, to Professor JohnPaterson.

UNDERGRADUATE memories...

T he autumn of 1949 saw thetransformation of21041157 Sergeant Youngs

M A (Intelligence Corps) intoMichael Youngs (undergraduate,University College Leicester). Thisprocess was somewhat haphazard,since UCCA had yet to beinvented, and attempts to beaccepted at Oxford and Londonhad been a failure. My picture ofuniversity life was based on a fewfilms and an article in Picture Post -of absent-minded professors andlanguid students in punts. I reallyhad no idea about higher education,and it was at the suggestion of afamily friend that I applied at thelast minute to this, to me, unknowncollege (student numbers about850) in Leicester.

The reality of a degree course inFrench dawned when I wasinterviewed, just a few days beforethe Autumn term began, by theHead of Department, ProfessorSykes, an unexpectedly young andintimidatingly tall no-nonsenseperson who proceeded to posesome searching questions whichexposed the extent of my

ignorance and optimism in applyingto read French at Leicester.

In the event, I was offered aplace on the Honours courseleading to a University of LondonExternal Degree (whatever thatwas) and within a week I was foundlodgings in Wigston and was cyclingalong Welford Road on the first dayof four of the most important yearsof my life. At the outset of thecourse, 21 hopeful First Years weretold that what we had embarkedupon was a serious venture, andthat, if we were not up to scratchat the end of the first year, wewould be dropped from theHonours course. I felt better whenI realised that a large proportion ofstudents were ex-service men andeven more reassured to learn thatProfessor Sykes and anotherlecturer, Dr Hemmings, had bothbeen in the Intelligence Corps.

Somehow, I made the grade, andthe second year passed quiteuneventfully. Year 3 was spent inFrance. Then the final year - orrather the year of Finals. Amazinghow impending exams canconcentrate the mind! Duringthese last few months we finalists

closed ranks, drawn togetherby the intensity of our sharedexperience, encouraged andinspired by the staff, whomwe had come to know andrespect. Eventually, it was allover and at a farewell dinnerat the Bell Hotel we ate,drank and talked too much -and Professor Sykes playedThree Blind Mice on the piano.

Over 40 years later, whatremains from those years? We hadthe opportunity to stand back fromlife and look at it with a critical eye.We learned to appreciate theperspective offered by the historyof a language and to comprehendthe necessity of clarity andprecision in communication.Through our texts we saw how,over the centuries, mankind’sdelights and dilemmas come invarious guises.

I treasure personal memories:autumn leaves in University Road,explication de texte with ProfessorSykes, teaching us to look into andout from the written word;historical phonetics with MrRasmussen (I recall the not-so-familiar song: ‘Old Rasmussen had afarm, A, E, I, O, U; And on that

farm he had some vowels, A, E, I,O, U; With a dipthong here and adipthong there; here a yod, there ayod, everywhere, etc...’). Inaddition, Dr Hampton introducedus to the incomparable Voltaireagainst a background of excitedshrieks of the ladies playing bowlsin Victoria Park, and there wasFrench conversation with thedelectable Mlle Bleynie. One yearwe took part in Dr Hemmings’production of Antigone (the start Ithink of a tradition of French playswhich is still carried on today).

Happy times, rewarding times,times for which so many of us aretruly grateful.

JUBILEE FEATURE

THIS year the Department of Historycelebrates 75 years of History teaching atLeicester University and the fiftieth

anniversary last December of the appointment ofits first professor and head of department, JackSimmons. This was an outside appointment and,like that of his life-long friend and colleague,Arthur Humphreys, to the chair of English thefollowing day, was greeted with dismay amongstthe students, who promptly absented themselvesfrom classes and examinations out of loyalty tothe claims of the existing lecturers in charge.Principal Attenborough did not share this view;he told Humphreys that on the day before hisinterview on a snowy postwar winter day in 1946‘the college had made a stunningly goodappointment in the person of a promising younghistorian named JackSimmons’.Recollecting this,Humphreys added,‘How right he was!’

History teaching atLeicester started inthe first year of thefledgling college,when PrincipalRattray gave informallessons to students,including RhodaBennett (Librarian,1932-1961). The firstpermanentappointment asLecturer in History went in 1922 to F W Buckler,a local man educated at Wyggeston Boys’ Schooland Cambridge. He was succeeded in 1925 by GR Potter, and in 1928 by George EugeneFasnacht, an Oxonian who was ‘introspective...and ranged in a formal and depressingly dull voiceover everything’. Fasnacht disapproved of theLondon BA General degree (the forerunner ofCombined Studies), remarking drily that ‘passstudents know that there was an industrialrevolution; honours students that there was not’.In 1932 he was joined by the young Rosalind Hill,who inspired J H Plumb, later Professor ofHistory and Master of Christ’s CollegeCambridge. She was, he wrote later, ‘nervous,fluttered her papers..and went pink-cheeked withterror, yet she managed to bring the medievalworld alive’. ‘Jack’ Plumb’s alpha plus essaysdaunted his fellow history students, and he wenton to get a first in 1933. Rosalind Hill left in 1937for Westfield College, where she later became amuch-loved Professor, retiring in 1976. She diedlast November.

Jack Simmons’ arrival in 1947 marked thebeginning of a new era. He served as Head of

Department for 21 years; by 1952 there werefive academic members of staff, and when heretired in 1975 there were 12. His scholarshipand research interests - embracing highereducation, the history of Leicester, imperialhistory, transport history and Victorian Britain -were uncommonly wide even for those catholicdays, and he published definitively in all of them.This breadth wasreflected in his earlyappointments to thedepartment: a postin Economic Historyin 1952, in BritishArchaeology in 1957and in AmericanHistory in 1965. In

those days thedepartment taughtthe whole of Englishand EuropeanHistory and theHistory of PoliticalThought, and finalexaminations included the unseen, andunprepared for, General Paper. University statusin 1957 brought no change to the Historysyllabus; London courses simply becameLeicester courses.

BEFORE long however the Departmentwas to bid farewell to some of itsprogeny: Economic History (whose

other parent was Economics) found a new homein 1964 under Ralph Davis in the Faculty of theSocial Sciences, and Archaeology gainedindependence under Charles Thomas in 1967.American History was to stay, providing (withEnglish) a Combined Arts course from 1967, theforerunner of the Single Subject Degreeintroduced in 1994.

Jack was first and foremost a departmentalman. He nurtured his early staff so well that

romance soon blossomed; the cine film of Rupertand Babette Evans’ wedding is still the nearestthing to a departmental video. Many gave longservice - the combined tally for Jack, Rupert,Babette, Geoffrey Martin and Aubrey Newman(who came in 1959) is 163 years! But Jack wasalso very much a university man. He was one ofthe progenitors of our University Press andBookshop, and was a strong supporter ofUniversity music. He became the University’sHistorian with the publication of New Universityin 1958, served as Pro-Vice-Chancellor from1960-63, and as Acting Vice-Chancellor for eightmonths during the 1961/2 session after CharlesWilson left Leicester for Glasgow.

What of the modern Department? BabetteEvans had already made history by becoming in1973 the first woman head of department in theuniversity. Among its professors, JohnMcManners left to be Regius Professor ofEcclesiastical History at Oxford, Geoffrey Martinto become Keeper of Public Records, andGeoffrey Warner for the Open University.Talented scholars came and went; in EuropeanHistory alone the list reads like a roll call of stars -

Olwen Hufton, AlisdairDuke, Peter Jones, MichaelBiddiss, Jonathan Osmond.The department survived thevicissitudes of the ’80s toemerge, with help from twoHistorians of Science (whoarrived from Astronomy in1986) and three colleaguesfrom Loughborough (whoseHistory department wasclosed in 1988) to reach atotal of 17 staff.

Outline courses weredropped in 1979 in favour ofoptions, but the General

Paper survived until 1981 (uniquely including arhyming question for the Queen’s Jubilee in 1977- and receiving an answer in verse!). Dissertationswere adopted in 1983. Joint degrees with Politicsand Economic History started in 1980; withArchaeology in 1989. Since then the departmenthas adapted to the new world of GraduateSchools and Research Centres. It has embracedComputing with the enthusiasm it once reservedfor Political Thought. It has rediscoveredIndustrial Archaeology. It has been devolved,assessed and modularised. Yet withundergraduate modules ranging in 1996 fromBede and The Vikings through Spanish American,Russian and Irish History to the Holocaust and theAtom Bomb, the Department is surely living up tothe breadth of its traditions, in good shape to facethe challenges of the next 75 years.

FOR the Department of History, 1996-97 is also a Jubilee Year marking a 75thanniversary. David Johnson recalls events and personalities within theDepartment through the years...

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY

O N LOOKING throughrecent press cuttings, Iwas quickly reminded

of a game we used to play whenat Scout camp. In this game theplayers were each presentedwith a short list of disparateobjects (I recall, with nopleasure, objects like ‘a biscuittin’ and ‘the Vicar’s bicycle’) andwere then required to constructa story which involved theseobjects in an interesting way!

A convenient starting pointfor this ‘story’ is in Rutland andits welcome return as a countyadjacent to Leicestershire. Thereport in the Times quotes thegreat W.G. Hoskins, who wasProfessor of English LocalHistory at Leicester , as writing“At each tree-lined road leadinginto the county, there should bea sign saying: ‘The rat race endshere.” Of course, the

implication is that there areplaces where the rat raceactually starts. Inhabitants ofthese unhappy places will sufferfrom overwork and insomniaand must surely benefit from thework of Leicester Universityresearchers who find thatLavender Oil seems to work aswell as prescription sleepingpills! (widely reported in USApapers, among them the WausaGazette and Atoka CountyTimes).

The benefits to be gainedfrom an understanding ofscience are one of the themes ofLeicester University’s bid for theNational Space Science Centreand also an important feature of

the work of LeicesterUniversity’s School of Education.The work of Tina Jarvis andFrankie McKeon (Director andDeputy Director of the SCIcentre, which was opened in1996) is reported in ChildEducation and they wantchildren to think of science as“exciting, relevant andsomething they can do”.Laurence Rogers of the Schoolof Education is aiding the ‘doing’bit with his Insight data loggingsoftware package reported inThe Times EducationalSupplement which is designed to“encourage pupils to exploreand think about experimentaldata.”

It was unhappy science newsfor Professor Stan Cowley of theDepartment of Physics andAstronomy when he learned ofthe loss of years of researchwork when the four Cluster

satellites, launched on theuntried Ariane V some ninemonths ago, were destroyed.Now it is reported in the TimesHigher Educational Supplementthat the European Space Agencymay be able to add three newsatellites to the revampedoriginal spare satellite andlaunch this fresh version ofCluster on two Russianlaunchers. The Clusterexperiment was intended toprovide “a uniquefour–dimensional look at theboundary between the earth’smagnetosphere and the solarwinds.”

Professor Cowley is anewcomer to LeicesterUniversity (from ImperialCollege, London). We hope hewill come to agree with theglowing testimonial to Leicestergiven by “five contentedstudents” who wrote to the

Leicester Mercury. Intheir experience,Leicester is “a placewith a friendlypopulace, a good mix ofethnic cultures and aplethora of beautifulrecreational areas andentertainmentfacilities”. Presumablythese facilities includeplenty of opportunitiesto practise dancing

since the LeicesterMercury also reportsthe convincingsuccess of Jane Evansand Julian Halliday,two LeicesterUniversityundergraduates, whowaltzed away from thenational finals of theInter–University DanceCompetition with fourawards including beingtop of the Rock and Rollsection.

Hundreds of cuttings pour into the Press Office at LeicesterUniversity from around the world chronicling the activities ofstaff and students. DR BRIN COOKE, Department of Physicsand Astronomy reviews a selection of cuttings from recentweeks.

The social contexts in which peoplecreate, perform, perceive, understandand react to music have beenneglected by psychologists. This bookprovides an authoritative, up-to-dateand comprehensive guide to the socialpsychology of music. It represents thefirst attempt to define the field sinceFarnsworth’s book of the same titlepublished in 1969, including the newareas of medicine, marketing, andeducation in which social psychologyof music has direct application in thereal world.

After an opening review chapter, the remaining 14 chaptersare divided into 6 sections: individual differences; social groups andsituations; social and cultural influences; developmental issues;musicianship; real world applications. Several of these chapters areground-breaking reviews published for the first time.

Aside from psychologists and music educators, The Social Psychologyof Music will appeal to musicians, communications researchers,broadcasters, and commercial companies.

SCIENCE IN THE MAKINGVolume 2: 1850-1900: Scientific Development asChroncled by Historic Papers in the PhilosophicalMagazine - with commentaries and illustrationsEdited by Professor E A Davis (Department of Physics &Astronomy), with a Foreword by Professor William HBrock (Department of History)Taylor & Francis, March 1997, £59.95

Available from the BookshopThis is the second of four planned volumes covering the history ofscientific development as reflected in the papers in the PhilosophicalMagazine. The second half of the nineteenth century was a period ofunparalleled advances in physics, culminating in the discovery of X-rays,radioactivity and the electron.

J J THOMSON AND THE DISCOVERY OF THEELECTRONby Professor E A Davis (Department of Physics &Astronomy) and Dr Isobel FalconerTaylor & Francis, May 1997, £16.95 (paperback), £45.00(hardback)Available from the Bookshop

1997 sees the centenary of one of the most important moments inmodern physics - the discovery of the electron. This volume maps the lifeand achievements of J J Thomson, with particular focus on his ideas andexperiments leading to the landmark discovery. A foreword byThomson’s grandson provides valuable insights into Thomson’spersonality, while the reproduction of originalpapers allows an appreciation of Thomson’s own

style and way of thinking.The book describes

Thomson’s early years andeducation. It then follows hiscareer, first in Cambridge asa fellow of Trinity, later asthe head of the Cavendish Laboratory, and finallyas Master of Trinity and national spokesman forscience. The core of the book concerns the work

undertaken at the Cavendish, culminating inthe discovery of ‘corpuscles’, later named‘electrons’. The final two chaptersdescribe the immediate aftermath andimplications of the work, and include thecreation of the subject of atomic physics aswell as the broader long-termdevelopments, from vacuum valves and

the transistor through to the microelectronics revolution.

‘The topic has importantapplications to and

implications for otheracademic and applied

issues’

‘Reflects the trend in psychology generally towards moreconsideration of cultural processes’

‘Anyone with aninterest in the

history of sciencewill want access tothese four volumes’

(New Scientist)

‘An accessibleand carefully-researched

historical surveyof the discoveryof the electron’

J J THOMSON: Before hisdiscovery, the atom was thought tobe indivisible.

OBITUARIESThe University has learnt with regret the deaths of the following people:

PROFESSOR SIR GEORGE MALCOLM BROWNAdrian Visiting Fellow of the Department of Geology from 1983-1985, died 27 March 1997Malcolm Brown had a distinguished career, initially at Oxford, workingwith Lawrence Wager on the colling and crystallisation of basalticmagmas. This work culminated in the publication in 1968 of a majorreference work, Layered Igneous Rocks. After a short spell at theCarnegie Institution in Washington DC, he was appointed to a Chair atDurham, and, in 1979, he was made Director of what would become theBritish Geological Survey.

Malcolm was awarded an honorary DSc by this University in 1984. Hegave the twenty-third Bennett Lecture in 1983, about the compositionand evolution of the Moon, an aspect of his research which contributed tohis being elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1975. He encouragedlinks with the BGS, which included a series of lectures given by BGS staffin the Geology Department in 1984.

CONSTANCE MARIANGRIERSON

Former Warden ofHall, died 22 February1997Marian Grierson was oneof a pioneering group ofseven founding Wardensof Halls at Leicester.Like new frontiersmen -and women, it was theirtask to form orderlyresidential communities,create ‘an atmosphereconducive to study’ outof a disparate collectionof buildings old and new,and to meet the demandscreated by the headygrowth of student

numbers, especially that attributed to the ‘baby boom’.From her native Liverpool, Miss Grierson went up to study at Girton,

and, after an early career in teaching, became an HMI of Schools in

Norfolk and Suffolk. In 1960, she was appointed Warden of Clare Halland also to a part-time lectureship in the Department of Classics. In anentertaining memoir in the 1983 Convocation Review, she wrylyrecorded that it was observed at the time of her appointment to thelatter post that she ‘lacked experience of difficult adolescents’.

However, basic needs, not psychology, came first. Wardens then hadto take a very close interest in the buildings and their fabric. In onesurvey of her domain in the company of her Bursar, she displayed a trulyHoratian ingenuity worthy of one who combined practicality with sweetdelight (qui muscuit utile dulci). Encountering a property over-run withbrambles, the order for its clearance was not conveyed until they couldfinally emerge ‘dirty and dishevelled’ (her words) with sufficient fruit tokeep Clare Hall in supplies of jam for the term.

A former Tutor in Clare Hall remembers how Marian’s concern for theindividual was practical and generous, noting that ‘she drove an enormousold dormobile which dwarfed her tiny plump figure, and was inclined toshout, or boom, at you that the best thing for a writing block was a goodslab of steak washed down by a bottle of red wine. And she wouldsweep you off to Leicester’s best hotel, in her dust-covered dormobile,and lay it on the line just as she said’.

In these early days there was little resembling today’s professionalwelfare and support system. A greater burden of care and vigilance fellon Wardens. She coped well with these demands; one recalls thataffection and respect for her was widespread. Her hospitality, bothprivate and public, including the by now legendary Clare Hall summergarden party, was never dull, and she was a cheerful raconteuse.

She retired in 1976 after a serious illness, to live with a group of friendsfrom her Cambridge days. Although illnesses marred the quality of herlife in retirement, courage and humour did not desert her. She diedwhilst visiting a former student and friend at Billingham, and her funeraltook place there on 5 April.

Large as it was, her contribution to the well being of her part of theUniversity community would simply defy assessment by today’smeasurements. A host of friends and former students will recall her withmuch affection and great gratitude.

Site inventory in SouthwesternTrinidad

Trinidad possesses the most significantarchaeological record in the Caribbean.Located at the geographical and culturalboundary between South America andthe Caribbean, it was a strategic gatewaythrough which all Amerindian peoplesentered the region. Southwest Trinidadis particularly rich, having yielded theearliest human remains in the region (the8,000 year old ‘Banwari Skeleton’). andpossessing also a wealth of laterprehistoric sites, which represent the

first appearance of pottery-making,agricultural village-based societiesaround 200 BC. The inventory chartsthe multi-cultural origins and developingadaptations of indigenous Amerindianssocieties to an island-based tropicalrainforest environment; it is also a crucialstep in assessing the area’s potential forfuture problem-oriented investigations,and for precipitating the enactment ofpending heritage legislation. Specificaims include site location (GPS), surfacecollections. Sample excavation, analysisof material remains, and site registrationand classification.

The structural basis for antigenicvariation in Neisseria Meningitidis

The antigenic variability of cell-surfaceproteins is a widespread phenomenon indisease-causing organisms as diverse asthe neisseria, the malaria parasitePlasmosium and the AfricanTryopanosomes. The variability of cell-surface components makes it difficult todesign effective vaccines against manypathogens. In the present studies, weshall concentrate on the class 1 outermembrane protein (Por A) fromNeisseria meningitidis, and organismwhich is the major cause of bacterialmeningitidis and septicaemia worldwideand accounts for 50% of the meningitidiscases in the UK. The aims of the projectare to investigate the structural basis forimmune recognition of the Por Aprotein by determination of thestructures of selected peptide antigensby NMR in complex with antibodies.We hope to identify the commonstructural features of antigens fromdifferent serotype variants of Por A andto use this knowledge to predict thestructures of new variants. Suchknowledge is also a prerequisite for arational approach to the design of newvaccines and drugs that takes account ofthe innate diversity of the targets.

Focus for the promotion of researchand development in primary care

The Trent Focus for the Research andDevelopment in Primary Health Carewas established in January 1995 withfunding for an initial period of two yearsand this has now been extended for afurther three years. The Focus consistsof an alliance of the three UniversityDepartments of General Practice inTrent and the equivalent academicnursing departments at Leicester (DeMontfort University), Nottingham andSheffield. The overall aims of the TrentFocus are to promote a research culturein primary care and to increase theinvolvement of primary careprofessionals in the research process.The ultimate aim is to strengthen theresearch capacity of primary care in theTrent Region.

A region-wide survey of primary healthcare professionals indicated thatsubstantial numbers wished to becomemore involved in research but that manylacked appropriate research training.Accordingly, the main priority of theFocus has been to provide an increasedavailability of research training andsupport through the creation of adirectory of appropriate courses, thecreation of a network of expert advisersand the provision of limited financialsupport to enable health professionals toavail themselves of these opportunities.Restricted career opportunities forresearch and organisational barriers toactive participation in research have alsobeen identified and efforts made toovercome them.

In the next three years, these activitieswill continue and be expanded. Inaddition, a network of 60 collaboratingresearch practices throughout Trent willbe built up and three designatedresearch practices, capable of innovativeresearch activity will also be identified

and supported.

Extensional collapse andmetallogeny in Madagascar - FermorFellowship

Rather than standing sentinel from thetime of their formation, passively waitingfor erosion to wear them down,evidence from many modern mountainranges highlights a more self-destructivetendency. Work over the last decade(much of it undertaken at LeicesterUniversity) has unearthed theimportance of large-scale extensionaldeformation within a mountain rangetending to decrease the overall elevationof the range (i.e. tectonic erosion).

Most work on this phenomena hasconcentrated on geologically recentmount tain ranges, these ranges have thedrawback that only rocks from the upperlevels of the Earth’s crust are exposed atthe surface. In Madagascar a wonderfulsection through an ancient mountainrange (~700 million years old) exposesrocks from all levels of the crust.Recently identified extensional faults inthis section are spatially related to largedeposits of ore minerals and gemstones.This project aims to examine thestructural relationship between thismineralisation (vital for Madagascar’seconomy) and the evolution of this oldmountain range.

Development and validation in vivobiomarkers of oxidative damage toproteins (AN0435)

Free radicals are generated in normalhealthy individuals during metabolism,and we may also be exposed to freeradical sources arising from cigarettesmoke or ultraviolet light from theenvironment. These free radicals arenormally limited by (1) scavengingenzymes and (2) antioxidants i.e.vitamins C, E, and the carotenes.However, if there is an imbalancebetween radical production andscavenging, then deleterious changes tobiological molecules such as lipids,proteins and DNA can occur. Freeradical induced modifications in proteinsare implicated in the pathogenesis ofchronic diseases such as atherosclerosisand autoimmune diseases such asrheumatoid arthritis. The purpose ofthis work is to identify novel markers offree radical damage to proteins. Thesemay provide useful indices of free radicalstress in healthy individuals. In addition,the protective effect of antioxidantvitamins on protein damage induced byfree radicals will be investigated. Thiswork may allow the definition ofantioxidant vitamin intake for a healthylifestyle.

Aresearch programme has been set upwith DRA Malvern to determine thestructure of the indium antimonidesurface and to understand the process ofmetallisation. Using the technique of X-ray diffraction and synchrotron radiationfrom the 2 GeV source at DaresburyLaboratory, we have succeeded indetermining the atomic structure of theclean surface.

Connect A - A new explorationtechnique for oil & gas employingartificially stimulated electro-magnetic waves from the ionosphere

Magneto-telluric techniques whichemploy low frequency electromagneticwaves of natural origin (e.g. lightning andthe magnetospheric pulsations) arebecoming increasingly important toolsfor geological exploration, particularly inmarine environments. Low frequencyelectromagnetic waves can penetratethe sea and submarine crust and reflectfrom geological strata. This allowsimportant regions such as oil and gasbearing layers to be located and

mapped. These methods are currentlylimited by the uncertainties associatedwith the natural sources of theelectromagnetic waves involved. Thisnew NERC grant will provide funds toinvestigate a novel approach tomagneto-tellurics, which utilises highpower radio waves transmitted fromthe ground. These excite low frequencywaves in the natural electric currentswhich flow in the upper atmosphere.These low frequency waves thenilluminate the ground and can be usedfor magneto-telluric prospecting. Unlikenaturally occurring low frequency noise,these man-made waves can be tunedprecisely to optimum frequenciesrequired for particular environments. Inaddition, modern signal encodingtechniques will make this method muchmore sensitive than can be achieved withrandom natural wave sources. The aimof this initial study is to assess thefeasibility of this novel method withparticular reference to oil and gasexploration.

SPORT

There is a time and a place for everything; for golf, the time is now and theplace is right here. Well, Oadby to be more exact, at Glen Gorse GolfClub. Your humble correspondent is learning to play golf and what a time Ihave chosen. No sooner do I pick up sticks than the game erupts into anew and vibrant phase of its life. Sponsorship deals for £25m are no longermerely a dream, young people discard their gameboys, aerosols andrecreational drugs to stride purposefully onto the greens and fairways ofour nation’s golf courses. And one name is on their lips. That name is sadlynot mine but Tiger Woods - say it loud and there’s music playing, say it softand it’s almost like praying.

Golf is no longer an old man’s sport, you don’t have to be a fashioncasualty or President of a superpower to play it, you can be young, you canbe cool because golf is young and golf is cool again. I have travelled downthe road to Damascus and I have a vision - it is a 5 iron in every hand,armadas of yellow pendants gently fluttering in the summer evening breeze,the twitter of blackbirds mingling with the effortless thwack of a millionswingers driving off - to oblivion or to fame and an addiction beyondanything they have previously known.

I am the apostle of golf - learn it, play it, dig it! Seriously, I am the leastsporty person I know and I can do it. It is such a thrill to get it right, to be inthe open air, not forcing it just swinging effortlessly through a swoop and awhoosh as you send your dreams skyward. By the time you read this I willhave covered my basics - the modest among you will be glad to know -irons, woods, driving, chipping, putting, bunkers - all in just seven lessons. Iam hooked. Or should that be sliced? No, not for me - I go in search ofthe perfect 365 yard drive. Ahead of me an intoxicating cocktail of pleasureand pain, a selection of golfing nicknacks every Christmas and a wardrobefull of fashion slacks. Tee up, the future is only a swing away.

TEE TIME

APRIL ushers in the beginning ofthe new cricket season but,increasingly this most English ofEnglish games is becomingconnected with the issue ofracism. During August of last yearwe saw race-based crowd troubleat the Headingly Test Matchagainst Pakistan and a court casein which Ian Botham and AllanLamb attempted to sue ImranKhan for slandering them asracists. During the previouswinter, Devon Malcolm hadclaimed that his treatment by theEnglish Chairman of Selectors, RayIllingworth, had been racist, andthe previous year a debate hadraged over an article published inWisden Cricket Monthly whichquestioned the “commitment” ofEngland cricketers who had beenborn or brought up abroad.Surely the next racism issue forcricket cannot be far away.

Whilst issues of race surface inmany sports - witness the recentPeter Schmeichel/Ian Wright feudin football - English cricket isperhaps especially prone to suchdebates. This is probably due totwo reasons. Firstly, internationalcricket matches are the onlysports events at which ethnicminority spectators are present inany great number. Secondly,cricket is also the only sport inwhich large numbers of bothBritish blacks and British SouthAsians compete at the highestlevel.

At first sight, we might see thisrepresentation of ethnic minoritymembers as a cause forcelebration. My research foundthat, in 1995, and compared tothe population as a whole, BritishSouth Asians were slightly over-represented as a group, andBritish Afro-Caribbeans weresignificantly over-represented as agroup.

But when we investigate furtherwe see a trend that is perhapsmore alarming, for this researchfound that a high number ofBritish Afro-Caribbean cricketerswere medium-pace or fastbowlers and a high number ofBritish South Asian cricketerswere batsmen.

Well, many of you might ask, sowhat? Presuming that there are

no biological differences betweenthese groups that make themespecially suited to the physicaldemands of each playing role -and I would strongly argue thatthere aren’t - how can we explainthese findings?

There are two possibleanswers. Firstly, either playersthemselves may choose to play inparticular positions. This may bedue to role models with whomthey identify (for instance theWest Indian cricket team has beenwell known in recent decades forits reliance on fast bowling).Alternatively, County coaches andscouts, influenced by certain“racial” stereotypes, may be moreinclined to pick members of ethnicminorities who play in certaincricketing roles.

These two answers are not, ofcourse mutually exclusive and amore definitive answer could onlycome about with more in-depthresearch. For the moment,however, I would suggest that it isthe second of these processeswhich is more influential.Blatantly false “racial” stereotypesare prevalent in today’s societyand especially among the moreconservative sections such as thecricket establishment. Forinstance, a few years ago a reportin the Independent on Sundayargued that Pakistani bowlerswere better at swinging the ballbecause they had different sweatto whites which allowed them topolish the ball better!Additionally, the continuedinability of Yorkshire-born SouthAsians to represent the county stillcauses many eyebrows to beraised.

Some while ago on these pagesIvan Waddington raised the issueof the inequality in sport betweenmen and women. Here I hope tohave raised awareness ofinequality in sport betweendifferent ethnic minority groups inBritain. The next cricketing rowover racism should be welcomedas an important step to increasingawareness of this issue on a widerscale.
