Information circulated to members; Derwent Wood and Gillick pointed out that contest was not being run according to the Society's own rules, and it was resolved that a copy of these should be sent to the organisers [20 May 1912, Royal Society of British Sculptors: Minutes of Council Meetings, no.1].
Individual members of the Society later complained of the display conditions for models entered in the competition; but Society declined to take any action [21 October 1912, Royal Society of British Sculptors: Minutes of Council Meetings, no.1].
