OXFORD ANNOYED.”.

VICE-CHANCELLOR'S BAN ON A THEATRE,

Oxford is annoyed by the ban which has been placed on the Play- house Theatre by Dr. Farnell, Vice-Chancellor of the university.

The magistrates, who granted a licence a week previously have Toceived a letter in Dr. Farnell pointing out that he was not con- Bulted on the subject and that the. Pinyhouse in out of bounds to under- graduates.

A controversy is likely to ensure an to Dr. Farnell's right to sit on the Oxford Bench. In the city it in claimed that if he has a right it is to sit on the county Bench. Another opinion is that Dr. Parnell may vato a building to citizens and andergraduates alike, especially in term, and that a double licence is required for a theatre, one from the saagistrates and one from the Vice- Chancellor.

Dr. Farmell, explaining to a Lon alon Evening News correspondent the reason for the ban, said: "A charter issued in the reign of Queen Victoria lays down that, without the permission of the Vice-Chan

ollor, no theatre may be erected within 15 miles of Oxford.

Questioned about the ban on the mg regatta, Dr. Farnell said the sam secured from it for the ho pitals in the past two years bed not Tooched £2,000; as had been report od, and that very discreditable

ones wore witneveld last year. An for the other bane, he added, he had mothing to my.
