THE GATHERING IN THE DEBATING HALL FOR A DEBATE ON THE REACTION FROM VICTORIANISM

The celebration of the Centenary of the famous Cambridge University Union last week was belated. But there was a very good reason for the delay. As it was founded-by the union of three societies-during a great war, in the year of Waterloo, in fact, so its actual centenary occurred while the country was in deadly grips in the greatest conflict of all time, and, as sterner work had to be done, a postponement was inevitable. The Duke of York, himself proud to be a Cambridge man, was the chief guest at the celebration dinner, and was also present at a debate on the reaction from Victorianism.
