Mr Rice was my 'house tutor' when I arrived as an M4 at Crawfurd House in the Autumn of 1977. My House master was Chris Trewhella (Cyril). Mr Rice's nickname during my entire time at the college was 'Spock'. I don't think he had the pointed ears but did have a pointed nose and very dark hair and I suppose very vaguely resembled Mr Spock from the early Star Trek series. He always seem to have the ability to discover things and find out what was going on against incredible odds! From the dormitory in Granville (which was my house when I became a boarder), some boys used a flash light to signal boys in the dorm down at Fayrer but it got stopped and according to one boy in Granville,
"Spock saw the beam"
How on earth could he have done that? But apparently, he did!
I think on balance he was well liked and was a good economics master. He taught me economics for 'A' level
