Belated congratulations to Henry Clarke Price, former Cherwell editor-in-chief, who scooped this year's Philip Geddes Prize for an outstanding Oxford student journalist.
David Priestland, a Teddy hall history don and one of the prize's judges, said: "All of the judges were very impressed with the range and quality of his journalism." Clarke Price is planning to spend the prize money - £1,000 - on a project on youth education for citizenship in Australia. John McManus won the Clive Taylor sports prize.
The prize runs annually to celebrate the memory of former Oxford journalist Philip Geddes, who was killed by an IRA bomb when he was just 24.
Applications usually open in Hilary - look at www.geddesprize.org for details nearer the time.
