120 OBITUARIES LAMBERT ANTHONY CHARLES DOPPING-HEPENSTAL (1939) was born in Dublin in 1921 and educated at Harrow. At King’s he studied Mechanical Sciences. From 1941 to 1947 he served with the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers as a radar maintenance officer, achieving the rank of Captain. Between 1944 and 1946 he was attached to the Royal Norwegian Coast Artillery as a technical instructor in radar and was awarded the King Haakon VII Liberty Cross. In 1947 he married his wife Beatrice. Lambert subsequently worked as an engineer for the Mullard Electrical Research Laboratory, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research in Geneva and the Cambridge Instrument Company. He died on 3 March 2001. LAURENCE THOMAS DOYLE (1944), brother of M J D (1951), was a star sportsman and a chemist. Laurence read Natural Sciences when he came up to King’s from Alderman Newton’s School at the tail end of the war. After completing his BA, two years on National Service in the Army Educational Corps proved to Laurence that he was meant for a career in industry and not teaching, as he had planned, and on his return to civilian life he joined British Xylonite in Leicester in the department for research and development in plastics. Although Laurence swiftly moved on to a job as Works Manager at the ceramics plant Lodge Plugs in Rugby, he did have one lasting reminder of his time in Leicester, which was his marriage to Patricia Shorrock, who had worked alongside him in the design division. They were married in 1952, going on to have three children and 53 years of marriage together. The move south seemed to be a question of trading one “Rugby” in for the other at first, as the downside to promotion was that it meant Laurence’s career as a county sportsman was rudely curtailed. Unlike in Leicester, where he had got his first cap against an Oxford University team, his superior at his new job did not sympathise with his passion for the playing field and would not allow him to take time off work for county matches. But Laurence did manage to compete at a club level – at which he excelled. In Leicester, he had been selected to play for the Tigers, but later he joined and eventually
captained the prestigious Rugby Lions. He is also remembered as an excellent all-rounder at Rugby Cricket Club, a team name that combines his two sporting passions succinctly. Laurence had represented the army in both rugby and cricket during his national service, and he held the captainship of the Old Newtonians teams in both these sports as well. Laurence remained active and busy after his retirement in 1991, taking up golf and also spending more time on his hobby of chrysanthemum-growing. He was a successful grower and shower of the flowers in his own right but his involvement in organisations around the Wirral (where he moved in 1970 and spent the last 11 years of his professional career) demonstrate the team spirit which guided him, even off of the sports pitch. Laurence was the Show Secretary for the Chester Chrysanthemum Society for 20 years, as well as the Chairman of the British Legion Heswell Chrysanthemum Society, and latterly he acted as Treasurer for the Heswell Artists Group. Laurence and Patricia had four grandchildren. Tragically, their eldest son was killed in a house fire on the Isle of Man two weeks before Laurence himself succumbed to a stroke in April 2004. But he is outlived by his wife, his daughter and his youngest son, who remember him as a family man who led an interesting life full of professional and sporting distinction. ROWLAND ARTHUR DRAY (1939) was born on 1 May 1920 in Broumana. After attending Bradfield College he came up to King’s to read Modern Languages. However his studies were interrupted by the war and Rowland served from 1940 to 1945 with the Worcestershire Regiment and Special Operations Executive, achieving the rank of Major. After the war Rowland returned to Cambridge to complete his studies and skied for the University before obtaining a Diploma from the Centre d’Etudes Industrielles in Geneva. In 1948 Rowland joined Aluminium Limited and stayed with the company for nearly 20 years, working in London, Montreal and finally Zurich where he founded its Market Research operation. In 1967 he decided to leave to devote 121 OBITUARIES
