Varsity Fencers Play In Championship Meet

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Eastern Intercollegiate Fencing Championships draw the varsity fencers to New York this weekend for their last match of the season. The Crimson takes an unimpressive record of two wins, one tie, and three defeats into the championships, but it is fresh from a 14 to 13 victory over Yale last weekend.

Coach Rene Peroy and the epee team left yesterday, and the rest of the squad takes off this morning. The matches take place today and tomorrow at New York University. Each man on each team will fence every other man on every other team in corresponding events.

Besides Harvard and NYU, the competing colleges are Army, Navy, Princeton, Yale, Columbia, Cornell, and CONY.

The Crimson fencers are Captain Ray Frankmann, Joe Vera, and Chris Martin in the foils; Joe Overholser, John Smith, and Byron Morton in the epees; and John Gay, Forrest Carter, Jay Levine, and Ray Pierce in the sabres.
