COMRADE AND CAPTAIN

Abstract

Like many young men of my generation, I was attracted by the internationally renowned Leeds system under R. J. Gordon. I joined the staff there in 1935, three years after Hutchings had left for Rugby. That I learned about him at that time was dependent on hearsay, but I gained the impression that he was a lively character, a go‐ahead librarian and a good singer. When he returned to Leeds in 1943, I was in the RAF and it was not until 1946 that I came to know him personally.
