The fencing team rallied from losses in its last two starts to gain its third victory of the season, with an exciting 14-13 triumph over City Collage of New York at the I.A.B. Saturday.

The crimson jumped to a lead over the perenially strong C.C.N.Y. team by winning six out of nine foil bouts. Larry Johnson of the varsity shut out his opponent in foil, and Captain Bill Trebilcock won two out of three bouts. The visitors then gained back five of those wins, while losing four to the varsity in the sabres. Only Mike Woolf was able to win two out of three for the Crimson sabre team.

After the varsity lost the first three epee bouts and failed to look away the victory, the match was tied at 12-all. However, the Crimson won the necessary two out of three bouts in the final, decisive epee events.

Before the match, the opposing captains demonstrated an electric foil, which is wired so that a buzzer and light indicate when a touch is made. The varsity team will use it against N.Y.U.
