Fencers Seek Varsity Status

Seeking varsity recognition at
the University, the Fencing Club
this year has progressed enormously
since its founding four years
ago and feels that it is now ready
to assume varsity status. This move
by the club exemplifies the optimism
prevalent in each member's
mind.

This optimism is by no means
ungrounded. In his second year
as coach, Dr. Herman Wallner
has seen great gains on the fencing
team.

The sabre team, a completely
inexperienced group last year, returns
intact with a year of valuable
experience.

The epee team this year carries
the most experience into its
matches.
