Taught Owen at West in Fifth and Sixth Form. One of a number of very talented students I taught at West at that time. School Certificate examination was a dominant force at that time. He and others of those years achieved remarkable results. Their marks in the then new subject Geography were outstanding to such an extent that Education Department appointed me chief examiner and so ended the teaching of that subject. I suppose we learned together and so both found the subject exciting and stimulating
