...competition will begin on Thursday and will end about May 27, with a break during the April recess. This is two weeks shorter than the usual competition. As this is the last competition open to the class of 1912 and the first for men of 1913, it is hoped that as many as possible will avail themselves of the opportunity...
...Senior dormitories may apply in groups of 14, this number being just sufficient to fill an entry. This arrangement affords a splendid opportunity for groups of friends to live together.

It is not likely that it means anything more than the occasional meeting of teams in the minor sports. But it is enough to indicate that the strained relations following the break of 1905 are becoming less tense. Athletic quarrels between great universities have something very absurd about them; we hope that the time may come when they will be altogether a thing of the past...
