I think Christopher Wiseman, R. Q. Gilson and G.B. Smith. I'm not sure though.

Along with Tolkien, the Tea Club; Barrovian Society, as sun star said, was made up of Christopher Wiseman (the headmaster's son,) Robert Gilson and Geoffery Bache Smith. (Known to the others as GBS.) I'm just finishing a really cool biography of Tolkien, could you tell?
