title: 1986 NCAA Division I-A football season

abstract: The 1986 NCAA Division I-A football season ended with Penn State winning the national championship. Coached by Joe Paterno, they defeated Miami (Fl) 14–10 in the Fiesta Bowl. This Fiesta Bowl was the first in the game's history to decide the national championship, launching it into the top tier of bowls. Miami came into the game No. 1 and Penn State No. 2. In a move that would come to symbolize the game for years to come, Miami arrived wearing combat fatigues while Penn State arrived wearing suits and ties. Despite all the hype surrounding Miami, Penn State's defense harassed and harried Heisman trophy winner Vinny Testaverde throughout the Fiesta Bowl. The Hurricanes committed seven turnovers, including five interceptions thrown by Testaverde – the last of which, in the end zone with 18 seconds left, won the game for the Nittany Lions.

This Fiesta Bowl was the first in the game's history to decide the national championship, launching it into the top tier of bowls.

Miami came into the game No. 1 and Penn State No. 2. In a move that would come to symbolize the game for years to come, Miami arrived wearing combat fatigues while Penn State arrived wearing suits and ties.

Despite all the hype surrounding Miami, Penn State's defense harassed and harried Heisman trophy winner Vinny Testaverde throughout the Fiesta Bowl. The Hurricanes committed seven turnovers, including five interceptions thrown by Testaverde – the last of which, in the end zone with 18 seconds left, won the game for the Nittany Lions.

## Rule changes

* Kickoffs are moved from the 40-yard line to the 35-yard line, mirroring a change made in 1974 by the NFL, and receivers may not line up closer than 10 yards from the spot of the kickoff.
* The definition of "Roughing the passer" is expanded to prohibit throwing passers to the ground after the ball is released.
* The definition of a "catch" is clarified to require players maintain control of a ball when returning to the ground, and an incomplete pass will be called if there is doubt in the official's mind that the catch was made.
* The penalty for batting loose balls forward in the field of play or anywhere in the end zone now includes loss of down.
* Clipping that occurs behind the scrimmage line will be enforced from the previous spot.
* The loss of down penalty for ineligible man downfield penalties is removed.

## Regular season

### September

Defending champion Oklahoma was No. 1 in the preseason AP Poll, followed by No. 2 Michigan, No. 3 Miami, No. 4 UCLA, and No. 5 Alabama. Alabama beat No. 9 Ohio State 16–10 in the Kickoff Classic on August 27 and Miami won 34–14 at South Carolina on August 30, but no new poll was taken the following week.

**September 6:** No. 1 Oklahoma hosted No. 4 UCLA and overwhelmed the Bruins 38–3. No. 2 Michigan had not begun its season. No. 3 Miami won 23–15 at Florida, No. 5 Alabama defeated Vanderbilt 42–10, and No. 6 Penn State beat Temple 45–15. The next AP Poll featured No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 2 Miami, No. 3 Michigan, No. 4 Alabama, and No. 5 Penn State.

**September 13:** No. 1 Oklahoma and No. 5 Penn State were idle. No. 2 Miami dominated Texas Tech 61–11, No. 3 Michigan won 24–23 at Notre Dame in Lou Holtz's first game as the Fighting Irish head coach, and No. 4 Alabama beat Southern Mississippi 31–17. The top five remained the same in the next poll.

**September 20:** No. 1 Oklahoma had its second consecutive blowout win, 63–0 over Minnesota. No. 2 Miami was idle. No. 3 Michigan beat Oregon State 31–12, but still slipped a few spots in the next poll. No. 4 Alabama won 21–7 at No. 13 Florida. No. 5 Penn State also fell to a lower ranking despite a win (26–14 at Boston College). No. 6 Nebraska, which defeated Illinois 59–14, moved into the top five: No. 1 Oklahoma, No. 2 Miami, No. 3 Alabama, No. 4 Nebraska, and No. 5 Michigan.

**September 27:** In a highly anticipated matchup, No. 1 Oklahoma faced off against No. 2 Miami, the only team which had defeated them in 1985. The Sooners were no luckier this year than last, as Vinny Testaverde led the Hurricanes to a 28–16 victory. This was a major blow for the Sooners, who would finish the 1986 season ranked first in all four major defensive statistical categories – a feat not to be duplicated until 2012, by Alabama – but remained stuck behind Miami in the polls for the rest of the year. No. 3 Alabama was idle. No. 4 Nebraska beat Oregon 48–14, No. 5 Michigan squeaked past No. 20 Florida State 20–18, and No. 6 Penn State won 42–17 over East Carolina. The top five in the next poll was No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Alabama, No. 3 Nebraska, No. 4 Michigan, and No. 5 Penn State.

### October

**October 4:** No. 1 Miami shut out Northern Illinois 34–0, No. 2 Alabama beat Notre Dame 28–10, No. 3 Nebraska won 27–24 in a back-and-forth game at South Carolina, No. 4 Michigan defeated Wisconsin 34–17, and No. 5 Penn State beat Rutgers 31–6. The top five remained the same in the next poll.

**October 11:** No. 1 Miami won 58–14 at West Virginia, No. 2 Alabama blanked Memphis 37–0, No. 3 Nebraska beat Oklahoma State 30–10, and No. 4 Michigan defeated Michigan State 27–6. No. 5 Penn State needed a late comeback to beat Cincinnati 23–17, and No. 6 Oklahoma, which bounced back with a 47–12 victory over Texas, moved ahead of the Nittany Lions in the next poll: No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Alabama, No. 3 Nebraska, No. 4 Michigan, and No. 5 Oklahoma.

**October 18:** No. 1 Miami won 45–13 at Cincinnati, No. 2 Alabama defeated Tennessee 56–28, and No. 3 Nebraska beat Missouri 48–17. A No. 1 vs No. 2 matchup the previous season between Iowa and Michigan had decided the race for the 1986 Rose Bowl; in the 1986 rematch, the No. 4-ranked Wolverines got revenge on the No. 8-ranked Hawkeyes with a 20–17 win. No. 5 Oklahoma shut out Oklahoma State 19–0, and the top five remained the same in the next poll.

**October 25:** No. 1 Miami was idle, while No. 6 Penn State defeated No. 2 Alabama 23–3 in Tuscaloosa. The Hurricanes and the Nittany Lions both played relatively weak schedules with the exceptions of powerhouses Oklahoma and Alabama, and their upset victories bolstered their national championship aspirations. No. 3 Nebraska fell 20–10 at Colorado. No. 4 Michigan won 38–14 at Indiana. No. 5 Oklahoma achieved their second consecutive shutout, 38–0 at Iowa State, and No. 7 Auburn beat No. 13 Mississippi State 35–6. The top five in the next poll were No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Penn State, No. 3 Michigan, No. 4 Oklahoma, and No. 5 Auburn.

### November

**November 1:** The top four teams all won easily. No. 1 Miami defeated No. 20 Florida State 41–23, No. 2 Penn State shut out West Virginia 19–0, No. 3 Michigan overwhelmed Illinois 69–13, and No. 4 Oklahoma crushed Kansas 64–3. However, No. 5 Auburn blew a 17–0 lead in an 18–17 loss at Florida. No. 6 Washington matched up against No. 7 Arizona State, and the Sun Devils won 34–21 to take over first place in the Pac-10. They had already beaten both USC and UCLA in Los Angeles, the first Pacific-10 conference team to do so in the same year. The top five in the next poll were No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Penn State, No. 3 Michigan, No. 4 Oklahoma, and No. 5 Arizona State.

**November 8:** No. 1 Miami won 37–10 at Pittsburgh. No. 2 Penn State barely got past Maryland 17–15, with the Terrapins falling short on a last-minute two-point conversion attempt. The AP voters were more impressed by No. 3 Michigan's 31–7 victory at Purdue, and the Wolverines moved up in the next poll. No. 4 Oklahoma and No. 5 Arizona State won in lopsided shutouts, 77–0 over Missouri and 49–0 over California. (This was the latest episode in a difficult year for Cal coach Joe Kapp, who had unzipped his pants in front of the Seattle media following an embarrassing 50–18 loss against Washington in October and would be fired after the season.) The Sun Devils’ victory allowed them to clinch the Pac-10 title and a Rose Bowl berth. The next poll featured No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Michigan, No. 3 Penn State, No. 4 Oklahoma, and No. 5 Arizona State.

**November 15:** No. 1 Miami beat Tulsa 23–10. Minnesota was a 25–point underdog in a road game against No. 2 Michigan; the Gophers had not defeated the Wolverines since 1977. Nevertheless, Michigan trailed in the fourth quarter and scored a touchdown to tie the game at 17 with only two minutes to go. On the ensuing Minnesota possession, quarterback Rickey Foggie scrambled to put Chip Lohmiller in field goal position; Lohmiller connected for a 20–17 Gophers victory. No. 3 Penn State had another close one, stopping Notre Dame 24–19 after the Irish had driven to the Lions’ 6-yard line with a minute left. No. 4 Oklahoma blanked Colorado 28–0; the Sooners had outscored their last five opponents 226–3. No. 5 Arizona State defeated Wichita State 52–6, and No. 6 Nebraska overwhelmed Kansas 70–0. The next poll featured No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Penn State, No. 3 Oklahoma, No. 4 Arizona State, and No. 5 Nebraska.

**November 22:** No. 1 Miami was idle. No. 2 Penn State finished an undefeated regular season with a 34–14 victory over Pittsburgh. No. 3 Oklahoma and No. 5 Nebraska met in Lincoln to decide the Big 8 title and an Orange Bowl berth. The Sooners entered the fourth quarter trailing by ten points, but came back to win 20–17 on a field goal with time running out. No. 4 Arizona State lost 34–17 at Arizona. No. 6 Michigan and No. 7 Ohio State, both undefeated in Big Ten play, met to determine who would be the Sun Devils’ Rose Bowl opponent. Quarterback Jim Harbaugh guaranteed a Michigan victory: "We don't care where we play the game. I hate to say it, but we could play it in the parking lot. We could play the game at 12 noon or midnight. We're going to be jacked up." This game also was decided by a late field goal, but this time it was an Ohio State miss which gave Michigan a 26–24 victory. No. 8 LSU, who had already clinched the SEC title and a Sugar Bowl berth, defeated Notre Dame 21–19. The next poll featured No. 1 Miami, No. 2 Penn State, No. 3 Oklahoma, No. 4 Michigan, and No. 5 LSU.

**November 27–29:** No. 2 Penn State, No. 3 Oklahoma, and No. 4 Michigan had finished their seasons. No. 1 Miami finished undefeated with a 36–10 win over East Carolina, and No. 5 LSU completed their schedule by defeating Tulane 37–17. The last remaining major conference race was also decided this week, as No. 10 Texas A&M clinched the SWC title and a Cotton Bowl berth with a 16–3 victory at Texas. The top five remained the same in the final poll of the regular season.

### Notable rivalry games

Arkansas' victory over Texas was the Razorbacks' first win in Austin since 1966.

## Bowl games

With Arizona State having clinched the Rose Bowl berth on November 8, and the Fiesta Bowl and Citrus Bowl scrambling to bid for the No. 1 Miami (Florida) vs. No. 2 Penn State Game, the Cotton Bowl struck an agreement to take the loser of the Michigan-Ohio State game. All the bowl games attempted to line up participants before the official bids were extended on November 22. The Sugar Bowl agreed to take the loser of the Oklahoma-Nebraska game to match the SEC winner, and the Orange Bowl agreed to take the second place SWC team to match the Big 8 winner. The Citrus Bowl, which moved to January 1, got a second place SEC team in Auburn, and, what they hoped would be a good matchup, in 7–2 USC. The Trojans would lose to UCLA and Notre Dame after they were invited.

title: 2000 University of Arkansas shooting

# 2000 University of Arkansas shooting

On Monday, August 28, 2000, James Easton Kelly, 37, a disgruntled graduate student at the University of Arkansas, shot and killed his faculty advisor, Prof. John R. Locke, and then committed suicide shortly afterwards. The murder-suicide was the first incident of its type in the university's history.

## Shooting

The murder-suicide occurred on the first day of the Fall 2000 semester shortly after noon when James Easton Kelly, 37, a recently dismissed PhD candidate in the university's Comparative Literature program entered the office of Dr. John R. Locke, 67, the director of the Comparative Literature program and Kelly's former academic advisor. After the first shot rang out, graduate student Bethany Edstrom said she heard someone say: "I didn't do anything."

At approximately 12:14 pm a 911 call was received by the Fayetteville Police Department. The caller alerted the police to an incident involving gunshots in Kimpel Hall. It was later discovered that Kelly had shot Dr. Locke three times with a .38 caliber handgun using bullets he had purchased earlier. Graduate students and faculty in adjoining offices quickly alerted campus police whose officers reached Locke's office and secured the area within a few minutes. UAPD secured the area around Room 231 Kimpel Hall and began the evacuation of the building immediately.

Officers responding to at least three 911 calls found Locke's office door closed and locked. The responding officers said a man behind Locke's office door stated that he had been hurt, but that they should not enter. They conversed for a few minutes with the individual before another gunshot was heard after which no further contact was made with anyone in the office. A SWAT team was then activated and approximately an hour after the first officers arrived, police entered the office and found the bodies of Locke and Kelly with a handgun on the floor between them.

## Investigation

Subsequent investigation of the murder-suicide determined that Kelly was disgruntled due to his recent dismissal from the PhD program in Comparative Literature for which he blamed Locke (who had actually abstained from voting for Kelly's dismissal during a graduate committee review of his progress). A satchel containing letters from the committee and his dismissal notification were found with Kelly's body. A receipt for a 50-round box of ammunition was discovered the following Wednesday in Kelly's rental car. The receipt was stamped 11:27 a.m. by a Wal-Mart 10 miles from the Fayetteville campus, roughly 40 minutes before the shooting of Locke. Moments after the initial shooting, officers heard Kelly kill himself with the final of four shots. Two bullets remained in the revolver when officers finally entered the cluttered office, university police Chief Larry Slamons said.

### Coroners and crime lab report

The crime lab report stated that the cause of death to Dr. Locke was homicide and the cause of death to Mr. Kelly was suicide. Chief Slamons said that a shot through Locke's hand indicated he raised his arm in a futile attempt to defend himself. Slamons also said that Locke and Kelly may have struggled, with Locke perhaps landing a blow before being fatally wounded.

## Victim

John R. Locke, son of a Danish immigrant and a New York City native, had been teaching Comparative Literature, Mythology, and Eastern philosophy at the university since 1967. In 1979, he published a translation of nine of Rainer Maria Rilke's dramas and was working on a collection of Rilke's poems and letters at the time of his death. He also circulated among friends and colleagues a private unpublished manuscript of meditation guides called *The Troika Technique*—based on his readings and study of Buddhist and Taoist philosophy and Jungian psychology. He was regarded by colleagues, friends, and students as a wise and deeply spiritual man whose loss deeply impacted the campus community. Locke planned to retire at the end of the 2000–2001 academic year, which had just started on the day of his murder.

## Perpetrator

Kelly, an African-American Arkansas native, was the son of a minister and considered a career in the ministry himself before choosing to attend Grinnell College where he earned a BA in English in 1984. He subsequently earned an MA in English from Arkansas State University in 1990. He then enrolled in the PhD program in English at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville planning to study African-American literature and the literature of the African diaspora. At first, he seemed a promising student, but eventually ran into academic difficulties and in 1996 twice failed his oral examination required for his English PhD. He subsequently accused departmental faculty of racist attitudes when they did not find his research subjects acceptable. However, Dr. Locke, despite warnings from colleagues that Kelly was aloof and unsociable, admitted him into the Comparative Literature PhD program because he thought that it might be more suitable to Kelly's academic interests. However, Kelly began enrolling in courses, but failing to attend them, and eventually Locke grew disappointed with the student's increasingly unpredictable behavior.

## Reaction and followup

The evening of the tragedy, approximately 500 people poured into the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Fayetteville on campus for an unofficial prayer vigil organized by English PhD student (one of Locke's advisees), and her partner. An impromptu shrine was also created outside Locke's office and the university two weeks later held the "official" memorial service on September 12, 2000. A year later, on August 27, 2001, Locke's colleagues and friends began collections to create a memorial garden outside Kimpel Hall in his honor. The memorial garden was completed and dedicated in September 2003. In 2006, Dr. Virginia Krauft, a Jungian psychologist and friend, opened the John Locke Memorial Library to house Locke's large collection of books on German, American, British, French, Russian, Irish, Italian, Asian, Japanese and Scandinavian literature and literary criticism along with studies in the sciences, visual arts and anthropology and several books on Eastern philosophy and religion.

title: Ethel Snowden

abstract: Ethel Snowden, Viscountess Snowden, was a British socialist, human rights activist, and feminist politician. From a middle-class background, she became a Christian Socialist through a radical preacher and initially promoted temperance and teetotalism in the slums of Liverpool. She aligned to the Fabian Society and later the Independent Labour Party, earning an income by lecturing in Britain and abroad. Snowden was one of the leading campaigners for women's suffrage before the First World War, then founding The Women's Peace Crusade to oppose the war and call for a negotiated peace. After a visit to the Soviet Union she developed a strong criticism of its system, which made her unpopular when relayed to the left-wing in Britain. Snowden married the prominent Labour Party politician and future Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Snowden. She rose up the social scale in the 1920s, much to her pleasure, and she welcomed appointment as a Governor of the BBC and as a Director of the Royal Opera House. Although her husband received a Viscountcy, money became tight and she led the way in caring for him; after his death in 1937, she resumed temperance campaigning as well as journalism. She tended to be a controversial public speaker, who would fill with enthusiasm for a project and pursue it to the disregard of anything that stood in her way; it was said of her that "tact or discretion were foreign to her nature".

# Ethel Snowden

**Ethel Snowden, Viscountess Snowden** (born **Ethel Annakin**; 8 September 1881 – 22 February 1951), was a British socialist, human rights activist, and feminist politician. From a middle-class background, she became a Christian Socialist through a radical preacher and initially promoted temperance and teetotalism in the slums of Liverpool. She aligned to the Fabian Society and later the Independent Labour Party, earning an income by lecturing in Britain and abroad. Snowden was one of the leading campaigners for women's suffrage before the First World War, then founding The Women's Peace Crusade to oppose the war and call for a negotiated peace. After a visit to the Soviet Union she developed a strong criticism of its system, which made her unpopular when relayed to the left-wing in Britain.

Snowden married the prominent Labour Party politician and future Chancellor of the Exchequer, Philip Snowden. She rose up the social scale in the 1920s, much to her pleasure, and she welcomed appointment as a Governor of the BBC and as a Director of the Royal Opera House. Although her husband received a Viscountcy, money became tight and she led the way in caring for him; after his death in 1937, she resumed temperance campaigning as well as journalism. She tended to be a controversial public speaker, who would fill with enthusiasm for a project and pursue it to the disregard of anything that stood in her way; it was said of her that "tact or discretion were foreign to her nature".

## Early life

Ethel Annakin was the daughter of Richard Annakin, a building contractor. Her father also became involved in politics and later served as an Alderman of Harrogate, becoming Mayor of the town in 1930–31. She is described by Philip Snowden's biographer Colin Cross as a "woman of strong will and striking good looks". She trained as a teacher at Edge Hill College in Liverpool, and while there joined the congregation of radical preacher Rev. Charles Frederic Aked (1864–1941); after listening to his sermon on "Can a Man be a Christian on £1 a week?" she became a socialist and joined with Aked's social work in the slums of Liverpool promoting teetotalism. She also joined the Fabian Society.

According to her future husband, the Labour politician Philip Snowden, they had met at a Fabian meeting in Leeds probably in about 1903, although Mary Agnes Hamilton thought they met at the Bradford house of William and Martha Leach. Harrogate, a spa town not dependent on the milling industry, was regarded as a higher class area and it was rare for someone of Ethel's background to be a socialist. She took her first lecture on behalf of the Yorkshire Independent Labour Party at Keighley Labour Institute in September 1903, possibly arranged by Snowden. In 1904 she started working as a schoolteacher at Walverden School in Nelson, Lancashire which was only 9 miles from Snowden's home at Cowling, and became a regular visitor, although Philip Snowden's mother Martha could not abide to meet her, thinking her pretentious and patronising.

## Marriage

A story told within the ILP and generally believed was that Ethel had proposed to Philip, which was against the marriage customs of the time. They had a quiet wedding with few guests at the registry office in Otley on 13 March 1905, with Philip Snowden explaining that they had learned that their socialist friends in the West Riding were planning a 'Socialist demonstration' at what they were hoping would be a family celebration. It is also thought that both families were opposed, and Philip Snowden did not tell his mother until he sent a telegram after the marriage had taken place. There was no honeymoon. Snowden subsequently tried to make friends with Martha but never entirely succeeded, with Martha frequently criticising her for concentrating on her own political career to the detriment of looking after her husband (who had long-term mobility difficulties).

Ethel and Philip Snowden set up home at Spencer Place in Leeds, and Ethel began to earn an income from lecture fees. She was interviewed for the woman's page of the *Blackburn Weekly Telegraph* where her husband was Prospective Parliamentary Candidate, telling the paper that "Our great motto .. is liberty, equality of opportunity and fraternity. Our great principle is love". She lectured in South Wales on socialism and women's suffrage in autumn 1905, but was ill during the 1906 election campaign and unable to help Philip in his successful election contest in Blackburn. She undertook a successful lecture tour of the United States in 1907, possibly arranged through Dr Aked who was then in New York; the tour was successful as American audiences seemed to like her way of speaking. The Snowdens gave up their Leeds home during this tour and moved to Baron's Court Road in west London.

## Woman's suffrage

After 1906 Snowden became increasingly active in supporting women's suffrage, being one of the national speakers for the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies; she decried the concentration on such things as dresses, jewels and cake recipes and wrote a book called *"The Woman Socialist"* in 1907 which advocated state control of marriage, joint title by women to the housekeeping money, and a state salary for mothers; she also wanted housekeeping organised collectively in each street and declared that under socialism women would have "no need to paint face and tint hair". Her strong views seemed to influence her husband, although Snowden was always a 'suffragist' and never endorsed the violent tactics of the suffragettes.

During a 1910 trip to the United States, Ethel Snowden was interviewed and sketched by Marguerite Martyn of the *St. Louis Post-Dispatch.* During the interview, Snowden mocked anti-suffrage parliamentarian Rowland Baring, 2nd Earl of Cromer, by affecting an accent and, as Martyn put it:

> Standing stiffly as if suffering from a choking parliamentary collar, adjusting an imaginary monocle, producing imaginary notes from an imaginary Prince Albert coat pocket, clearing her throat and "er-ing" and "aw-ing" prodigiously, Mrs. Snowden proved herself an accomplished mimic and actress. \[Adjacent image.\]

In 1914 Ethel Snowden was speaking at 200 public meetings a year on the subject, and temporarily resigned from the Independent Labour Party in order that her political allegiance did not cause problems with her campaigning on the issue.

## Pacifism

The Snowdens left Britain for a long, world-wide, lecture tour in July 1914; while they were in Canada, news came of the outbreak of war. Philip Snowden asked whether he should return but was told not to, possibly because of his known pacifism which Ethel shared. While in Portland, Oregon Ethel gave an interview which produced a headline reading "Briton M.P. advises British Soldiers to Shoot Their Officers" which her husband considered damaging. She was near to being a complete pacifist, and joined her husband in campaigning for a negotiated peace in 1916. Since 1915, along with other women such as Agnes Harben, after the 1915 International Alliance of Women, Snowden felt a desire to develop a British campaigning organisation, and in 1917 she became the organiser and principal speaker for the Women's Peace Crusade, and estimated that she had addressed half a million people in the last year of the war; her main campaign speech was an appeal for men to "love" one another.

## Russia

At the end of the war, Snowden was elected to the National Executive Committee of the Labour Party in its Women's Section. This position made her a very prominent figure within the left-wing movements and led to a great deal of foreign travel, including to Bern and Vienna (to try to re-establish the Socialist International), Palestine, Georgia and twice to the United States. Most notably, she was named to a joint TUC-Labour Party delegation to Russia in early 1920 which was sent to be an impartial inquiry into the Bolshevik Revolution. After her return she published a book, *Through Bolshevik Russia*, which revealed her own findings. Although she liked Lenin ("the merry-eyed fanatic of the Kremlin"), her general reaction was profoundly critical. She upbraided a Bolshevik who told a public meeting that a British revolution would start in three months, insisting that "we want power, but we do not want a revolution", and observed that "Everyone I met in Russia outside the Communist Party goes in terror of his liberty or his life". She had told a reporter for the *Evening Standard* on her return that "I oppose Bolshevism because it is not Socialism, it is not democracy and it is not Christianity", and likened working conditions to slavery.

Snowden's denunciations of the Soviets made her unpopular with the left within the Labour movement and resulted in her being voted off the National Executive Committee in 1922. Her prominence led to invitations to stand for Parliament. Snowden refused to stand in Plymouth Devonport against Lady Astor on grounds that Astor's service was invaluable. She was selected at one point as Labour Party candidate for Leicester East, but gave up the candidature when a by-election was called there in Spring 1922 (the Labour candidate won).

## Social rise

With Philip Snowden back in Parliament for Colne Valley in 1922 and Labour as the official opposition, Lord and Lady Astor arranged a dinner party where King George V and Queen Mary could meet Labour leaders Snowden, J. R. Clynes, James Henry Thomas and their wives. Snowden became firm friends with Queen Mary. The couple put together all their earnings and savings in 1923 to buy a country house of ten rooms, Eden Lodge, set in an acre of land at Tilford in Surrey. Above her mantelpiece in the drawing room at Eden Lodge were later placed signed photographs of the King and Queen. They sold their London home at Golders Green and took a flat near Parliament in St Ermine's Court, but Ethel was angry when her husband was not allocated the living quarters at 11 Downing Street on becoming Chancellor of the Exchequer in 1924.The Snowdens did not generally host parties, partly because they were both hard workers, but did like to meet up with old friends. They enjoyed music and Ethel was a good pianist. She started a rivalry with Beatrice Webb for the position of the leader among the Labour ministers' wives. After the fall of the Labour government, Ethel Snowden toured Canada and criticised Ramsay MacDonald's leadership in public speeches which were widely reported back in Britain and assumed to be the views of her husband. Although later moderating her language, she stood by her words when questioned by reporters on her return.

Conservative Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin appointed Ethel Snowden a governor of the newly established British Broadcasting Corporation in 1926, as a representative of women and of Labour; the appointment carried an annual salary of £750. She quarrelled with Sir John Reith at her first meeting and they continued to feud throughout her term, with Reith trying to get rid of her. Snowden was given the credit for the fact that no alcoholic drinks could be found in the newly built Broadcasting House, and she appeared to confirm her responsibility for this state of affairs. When the Labour government was formed in 1929, the Snowdens finally moved to 11 Downing Street, where they found that the cost of employing eight servants and official entertaining required dipping into their savings. While no alcoholic drink was served, Ethel hosted many tea parties and evening receptions with musical and artistic guests (some in the Labour Party noted that few MPs or even other Ministers had been invited). She seems to have persuaded her husband to give an Exchequer grant to support the Royal Opera House at Covent Garden, and became a director of the new company formed to manage it.

## Viscountess

Philip Snowden was seriously ill in early 1931, and apparently decided not to stand again for Parliament but to go to the House of Lords. He confirmed his decision to stand down in August, shortly before the collapse of the Labour Government, and was not a candidate in the general election although playing an active part in the campaign. When the award of a Viscountcy was announced in the Dissolution Honours List, Ramsay MacDonald was reported to have said that Snowden's desire for a Peerage came from his wife. Ethel became Viscountess Snowden on 24 November 1931.

The Snowdens found their financial position gradually eroding after 1931. Ethel's five-year appointment at the BBC expired at the end of 1931 and was renewed for only one year, but after Philip Snowden resigned from office over the principle of free trade that was their only regular income. When the appointment came up again, MacDonald did not renew it, a move was ascribed to personal spite. The Snowdens had to fund Eden Lodge, a London flat, and the costs of caring for Philip, who now needed constant medical attention. Philip Snowden turned back to journalism, penning increasingly bitter attacks on MacDonald. By 1936 he was immobile and being cared for by Ethel and some nurses whom she supervised at Eden Lodge; he continued to keep up with politics. Ethel attended the Coronation ceremonies of 12 May 1937 without him; Philip died three days later. She had him cremated at Woking, and the ashes scattered on the open moor at Ickornshaw above his birthplace; his books were given to Keighley Public Libraries where they formed the 'Viscount Snowden Memorial Library'. She destroyed his remaining papers.

## Later life

Viscountess Snowden moved to a flat in Dolphin Square, disliking visiting Eden Lodge which was used by an evacuated Government office during the Second World War. She attempted unsuccessfully to get reappointed as a BBC governor and in 1937 visited the Nuremberg Rally, writing for the *Sunday Chronicle* to criticise other British people present for refusing to give the salute and to say that she found Hitler "a simple man of great personal integrity" of whom "I would not hesitate to accept his word". Her other journalism made a strong defence of her husband; it was said that the quickest way to win her favour was to praise Philip. She entertained Queen Mary to tea at Dolphin Square in 1938, and became President of the Band of Hope, the leading Christian temperance organisation, in May 1939. When war did break out, she supported it and expressed the view that Nazis were utterly evil, but she had reservations about area bombing. In August 1943 she denounced the BBC for poor moral standards in regard to drinking, swearing, and marital fidelity; she was nevertheless invited to appear as a panellist on *The Brains Trust*.

Snowden suffered a severe stroke in 1947 which left her disabled and permanently resident in the Warleigh Nursing Home in Wimbledon, although her mind remained active. She sent a letter of support to Conservative Party candidate Cyril Black, a teetotaller, in Wimbledon at the 1950 general election. Her father died that year at the age of 93, and she outlived him by only a few months, dying aged 69. Her will was worth £23,279, the majority being the money she had earned in her early career. After cremation her ashes were scattered on the same moor as her husband. Her collection of books joined those of her husband at Keighley Library.

There is a Halls of Residence called Snowden at Edge Hill University in her honour.

## Notable events

### NFL Night Series

The top two Association clubs from 1977 – Prahran and Preston – were invited to participate in the NFL Night Series, known this year as the Escort Cup. Neither club progressed to the night portion of the series, both eliminated in the first round by their SANFL opponents in a double-header played at Preston City Oval on Anzac Day:

It was the final NFL Night series, as it was entirely superseded by the rival AFC Night Series in 1980, in which the Association clubs were not invited to compete.

### Interleague matches

The Association played an interleague representative match against Queensland for the third consecutive season; it was the Association's first home representative match on an Association ground since 1965. The team was coached by Mick Erwin (Prahran).

After having lost away matches against Queensland in both 1977 and 1978, the Association won this year's match easily. Queensland did not register its first score until the second quarter, by which stage the Association had already scored 9.13 (67), and the final margin was 154 points.

### Other notable events

* On 3 June, Prahran won its first game against Port Melbourne at North Port Oval since 1951, a streak lasting 28 years (in 21 of which the two clubs competed in the same division).
* On 24 June, Frankston 26.19 (175) defeated Preston 25.18 (168) in an extremely high scoring game.
* On 4 July, Preston was found guilty of having fielded an unregistered player, Greg Marshall, in matches early in the season; Marshall's Form 3A had not been completed when he played in two senior matches and three seconds matches at the start of the season. The two senior matches in which Marshall had illegally played were an eight-point win against Caulfield and a draw against Port Melbourne; as a result of the revelations, the win and four points from each match were awarded to Preston's opponent. The penalty saw Port Melbourne reach the finals at Preston's expense: had the original results stood, *ceteris paribus*, Preston and Port Melbourne would have finished fourth and fifth respectively with 38 points each, Preston having the higher percentage. Preston was also fined $1150, comprising $500 for each senior match and $50 for seconds match in which Marshall played. It was the first case of points being stripped for playing an unregistered player since 1952.
* In July, the Association had discussions with the Bendigo Football League with the view to offering stalwart clubs Golden Square and Sandhurst admission, but the offer was rejected.
* In the final round of Division 2 home-and-away matches, Sunshine back-pocket Denis Strybosch was reported for the unusual misconduct charge of indecently exposing himself to an umpire. The incident occurred late in the final quarter of Sunshine's 119-point loss to Yarraville: dominant Yarraville full-forward Mark Fotheringham was lining up for goal from the behind post with Strybosch on the mark when Sunshine full-back Peter Simpson walked across the mark; umpire Bill Torney paid a 15-metre penalty, to which Strybosch turned around, lowered his shorts and mooned Torney; Strybosch was reported by all four umpires at that end of the ground, and was immediately benched by his coach. At his hearing on 14 August, Strybosch claimed the gesture was a tactic to distract Fotheringham; but he also criticised Torney's umpiring and Fotheringham's play, none of which particularly helped his case. Strybosch was suspended for ten weeks. Later in the evening of Strybosch's hearing, his Sunshine team-mate Brian Morley, who had been cleared of his own misconduct charge earlier in the night and had allegedly been drinking in the hours since, abused and threatened Torney as he left VFA House. Morley returned to face the honorary commission on August 28, and was initially suspended for the entire 1980 season; but this was increased to a life suspension after he threw an ashtray at the chairman of the honorary commission.
