Volume 1, No 1 of the Huish Magazine was published in the Summer Term 1904 which is just a little after the arrival of Arnold Goodliffe as Head, recorded in Huish History II. Goodliffe was already on the staff, having been appointed by Vipan during his short tenure, and it is with some dismay that I note that only a few years separate my own arrival at the School as a pale and trembling eleven year old and the death of Goodliffe, who had agreed to stay on when Peel-Corbin, then Major, was called to military service on the outbreak of war.The Magazine records in this issue that 'Mr. Humphrey's old friends will be glad to learn that he has settled down happily to rural life in the county of Durham'. Another article contains an appeal to all Old Huishers to join the resuscitated Old Boy's Association. 'An Old Boy's Lament', signed 'T.B.W.', contains the opinion that 'there is always a danger when a school is moved to new quarters, the old school rebuilt, or the staff changed, that the interest of certain Old Boys becomes lukewarm, and they do not see in the altered conditions any link with the past'. T.B.W. went on to say 'This is the sort of feeling we, as Old Boys, should studiously set aside...' - surely there is something in this for today's 'Old Boys' to remember, faced as so many of us are with equal or greater changes arising from the reorganisation of the school into a co-educational sixth form college? However he does go on to say, with considerable nostalgia, 'Still... one does miss the old buildings... So very severe seems the present schoolroom...', followed by more in similar vein showing that, despite his injunction, he understood only too well that for many the appeal was the past. All the more reason, then, to welcome the Acting Principal's warm invitation to the Old Huishers at their recent Dinner to renew their links through visits and attendance at the many sports, musical and theatrical events.
