Concluding the fencing season for 1935, Captain Webster F. Williams, Jr. '35 and Frederick W. Sands '37 took top honors in the University championship events held in the Indoor Athletic Building Thursday afternoon.

Williams outpointed Abraham Stern 1L to capture the title in the Epee class, while Sands wielded the sabre for his defeat of Richard Mogran, IV '36. On the previous day Gilbert Kerlin 2L had won the championship in the foils division.
