TRANSLATION OF LATIN SPEECH OF WELCOME

As I fulfil the custom, ladies and gentlemen, in delivering this annual oration, I am conscious of the faces of a new generation before me. This youthful microcosm is seen united for the first time here this evening when Edwardians and Edwardiennes celebrate together the year’s achievements.

So too, I rather think, must our guest be aware of change when he reflects upon his own experience of King Edward VII School. For he came from Nottingham to this city as a very young man and joined the sixth form of the day to pursue a course of study in science before entering the University of Sheffield.

He who was once an eminent student and now occupies the position of Director of the British Iron and Steel Research Association remains to this day a respected citizen of Sheffield. To him whose occupation (or should I say ‘preoccupation’?) is research fall other no less important responsibilities, which include travel and dissemination of acquired knowledge and techniques. To this end in recent years he has lectured in such distant parts as Japan, Rumania, Scandinavia, and the United States.

But, ‘when the lawyer is swallowed up in business, and the statesman is preventing or contriving plots, then we sit on cowslip-banks’, wrote Izaak Walton of the enthusiasts of his favourite recreation. Our guest too practises the piscatorial art for relaxation, and like the Compleat Angler before him is deeply concerned with the conservation of nature’s surroundings.

Much more could I say, but—to quote a poet of old—‘not mine the time to embrace all the theme within my words, not though I had a hundred tongues, a hundred mouths, and a voice of steel!’

John Hugh Chesters, B.Sc., Ph.D., D.Sc.Tech., O.B.E., F.R.S., we warmly welcome you and eagerly await words of inspiration and edification.
