Edinburgh - JDF has decided to become a candidate for the Principalship of the United Colleges of St. Andrews, to be vacated by Sir David Brewster (who is to become the new Principal of Edinburgh): 'May I ask you to use any influence you may have with Sir George Lewis (or Lady Theresa Lewis) or with any other member of the government. But it is stated to be directly in the gift of the Home Secretary'. The next most influential figure is Lord Brougham, who 'was yesterday elected chancellor of this university by a large majority'.
