Clere Parsons (editor 1928) (OCTCP)
Died of pneumonia and diabetes in 1931; visibly unwell even at Oxford, where he edited both OP and "Oxford Outlook", and (with Bernard Spencer) the short-lived "Sir Galahad", a magazine modelled on Jacob Bronowski and William Empson's Cambridge student magazine "Experiment". But for his tragedy he might easily have become as celebrated as the MacSpaunday four, and is the nearest they have to a "fifth Beatle", who left the band before they made it big. Though Parsons is now hardly mentioned by critics, Eliot accepted "Poems" (1932) as a posthumous work, evidently thinking it good in itself and not merely a future investment. Five of the OP poems appear in "The Air Between" (1987), a selection which also includes a memoir by his Oxford friend Edouard Roditi. "Colour-Photograph" is an early version of "Photogravure", his best-known poem (though that is not saying much).
