LONG FEUD ENDS
FOUR VARSITY EDITORS. HANIDS ON VILLAGE PUMP. LONDON, Feb. 23. Four young men in si'k hats and morning coats laid hands on the village pump at Sherington, Buckinghamshire, to-day and took a Latin oath to heal a fued of centuries. They were the tutors of four leading university papers at Oxford and Cambridge, including Mr Michael Asquith, grandson of Lord Oxford. All, who previously encouraged a policy of bitter inter-Varsity antagonism, have now declared an entente cordiaje in accordance with the pacifism of the present undergraduates, a dove of peace actually racing a pigeon borrowed from a College servant. Then the reconciled editors adjourned to the village inn at Sheringtton, midway between Oxford and Cambridge.
