NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

R. H. Show '20, Captain of the University Fencing team in 1920, won three matches for the Oxford Fencing team against Cambridge, in a recent meet. Snow, who is now a Rhodes Scholar, was a brilliant fencer while in college. His two victories in foiling were the chief reasons for Harvard defeating Yale that year 5-4.
