[edit] Tolkien

J. R. R. Tolkien spoke to the Newman Society in the 1880s? This was quite an achievement for the precocious Tolkien who was not born until 1892. Fys. “Ta fys aym”. 14:58, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Multiple Newman Societies

I understand from the John Henry Newman article's discussion page that there's more than one Newman Society in Oxford, and that OUNS is in dispute with a society that claims to have continuity with the historic Newman Society. This is an interesting development, and one that's worthy of note in this article. Countersubject 15:18, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
