Catcher in the Rye- Chapter 6

Stradlater returns from his date with Jane and is upset about the paper Holden had written. He says the paper had nothing to do with the assignment. Holden is upset and throws it away. Holden decides to smoke in the room because he knewit would annoy Stradlater. Holden tries to ask about the date, but Stradlater refuses to tell him anything. They get in a fight and Holden leaves with a bloody nose. Stradlater goes next door to Ackley's.

I wonder if this is the first time Holden and Stradlater had a problem. They seemed to get along pretty well before the date. Does something little like that upset Stradlater that much?
