Printed letter from A. S. Ramsey (President and Hon. Treasurer) and W. H. F. Maule (Hon. Secretary) addressed to G. H. L. Mallory appealing for a donation towards the new sports ground and the fund towards building a new pavilion.

On the 500th anniversary of the foundation of the Monks' Hostel an appeal was launched to raise £60,000 to build 12 staircases, each with its separate sets of rooms, in the new court which the College planned to create by removing the shops facing Magdalene Street. Not enough money was raised from this appeal to allow for the design of the new court to be realised.
