...ready to prove that the plan was unworkable. The university's ruling Hebdomadal Council met in deepest secrecy and significantly failed to endorse the new scheme. From his Christ Church study overlooking the meadow, the venerable Lord Cherwell, Sir Winston Churchill's top wartime brain-truster and now adviser for Britain's atomic-energy program, issued a statement solemnly urging that a Royal Commission be appointed to study the matter.
