FENCING EXHIBITION TO TAKE PLACE ON FRIDAY

Bouts by Members of University Team, Coach, and Graduates are Scheduled For Annual Sword Show

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A fencing exhibition, at which members of the University team, graduates and guests from other colleges will participate, is to be held on Friday, at 8.30 o'clock, in the fencing room of the Indoor Athletic Building. The affair is open to the public. Every year, Rene Peroy, University fencing coach, invites guests, such as Robert Grasson, Yale fencing coach, and the Lane brothers, who were both on the 1924 Harvard team that won the Intercollegiate Foils Championship, as well as the best men on the present squad, to participate in a few bouts with foils, sabre, and epee. Last year a special feature of the program was "Le Grand Salut", a series of involved passes and gestures, performed by Grasson and Peroy.

Five Foils Bouts

This year there are to be five bouts in foils, which will be as follows: Gilbert Kerlin '33 vs. H. C. Cassidy '31: Henry Wesselman '30 vs. J. G. Hurd '34; E. H. Lane vs. E. L. Lane; F. S. Righeimer, Intercollegiate Champion for 1928, vs. Joseph Levis, Amateur National Champion; Peroy vs. Levis; R. B. Lawson '32 vs. Peroy-sabre; Righelmer vs. Levis, epee.
