Description | Article on election of Lord Tedder as Chancellor of Cambridge university. Comments on claim by Noel Annan, a Fellow of King's, in an article in 'Cambridge Review' for November 4th that 'Lord Tedder was the choice of a small clique of Cambridge dignataries (he does not explicitly refer to Corpus Christi) who pushed Lord Tedder's name through at an informal meeting in the Senate House on October 14th, brushing aside a counter proposal that Lord Mountbatten's name might be considered........Mr Annan concludes that the procedure for nominating a Chancellor needs revision'.
