...Lewis A. Lapham, 46, son of onetime San Francisco Mayor Roger Lapham (TIME, July 15, 1946), moved up from executive vice president to president of W. R. Grace & Co.'s shipping subsidiary, Grace Line. Lapham succeeds Cassius C. Mallory, 64, who stepped up to the Grace Line board chairmanship vacated by W. R. Grace & Co. President J. Peter Grace Jr. (Grace gave up the title to free himself for the diversified operations of the parent company.)

The feeling among Harvard supporters that the men from Princeton weren't playing gentlemanly football was cited by the CRIMSON the following Monday, when it remarked that "there was evident animosity displayed within the Harvard Stadium last Saturday...
...Lampoon, made matters worse with a cutting editorial. Many Princetonians were convinced that Harvard was chafing under the humiliation of recent athletic defeats and that the Crimson's apparently patronizing attitude had gone too far. Suddenly, on Armistice Day, athletic relations between the two universities were severed: Princeton Professor C. W. Kennedy wrote to Athletic Director William J. Bingham '16 that "Competition carried on in an atmosphere of suspicion and ill will of necessity falls short of the desirable objective of intercollegiate sports. Under these circumstances, we prefer to discontinue competition with Harvard altogether...
