A T.B. and Q.S. row which might have grown to disagreeable proportions arose in the Debating Society this term. The Q.SS were very sore at the fact that three of the four officers in the Society were T.BB and also because at a recent election all their candidates had been black-balled. Consequently they sent round the fiery cross or in common parlance made a strong whip and swamping all opposition declared the obnoxious election invalid. On the next day the T.BB retaliated and confirmed the impugned proceedings fencing them by a rule that all objections to former proceedings are out of order unless supported by a rule. After some further rather intricate manoeuvres in the course of which the Society committed itself to several diametrically opposite opinions I proposed a compromise (I must confess that at the former meeting I had not altogether succeeded in keeping my temper) which was consented to – but the spirit shown by the Q.SS and especially by the two captains present and past was highly calculated to arouse hostile feelings which every well-wisher of Westminster would prefer to let slumber.
