Fencers Oppose Cornell Tonight

The fencing team opens its season tonight at 7:30 against a strong Cornell team which boasts two eastern intercollegiate champions.

The Crimson will meet Trinity at Hartford on Saturday, and will play eight further matches this season. "We expect the team to be stronger than last year's squad," said Paul Forand '55, captain. Last year the fencers won three and lost three.

Varsity men are Douglas Fitchen, Forand, James Harrison, David Kenney, John Livingston, William Pierskalla, Anthony Provenzano, Walton Rawls, and Steve Schneider.

Freshman fencers are scheduled to start their season on Feb. 5, opposing Hopkins Grammar, a New York prep school, and on Feb. 17 will compete against the University of Connecticut.
