OXFORD CUP, 1968-69 At a belated stage of the school year, and without detracting from inter-house rivalry within individual clubs, it was thought that the wisest, indeed fairest, decision was to abandon the award of points for the Oxford Cup in the current year. This was change, not for the sake of change, but necessitated for many reasons, all of which pointed to the growing concern that by some freak of circumstances the Cup might be won on an unfair basis. The Games Committee are acutely aware that the Cup was presented to the school by the Oxford O.P. Club in 1927 for the promotion of inter-house rivalry and recognition of "cock" house. With this very much in mind there is little doubt the Cup will become just as much a coveted trophy as in the past, but after the Games Committee of 1969-70 have had time to review the points system, the whole question of house representation, and rules governing the selection of house teams.
