Fencers Down Amherst, 14-7

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Crimson fencers dissected an Amherst squad 14 to 7 at the Indoor Athletic Building yesterday afternoon. It was their fifth win in seven starts.

The same lineup that has worked so successfully all season won the foils matches and the spectacular saber duelling. But the team dropped the epee contest to Amherst.

Bill Raney, Chip Arp, and Joe Vera took the foils section for the Crimson. They shut out the Lord Jeff squad 3 to 0.

Crimson swordsmen Ken Yates, John Ager, and Giles Constable fell down in the epee and lost 5 to 4.

Peroy's fencers came back in the last group of matches to win in the saber, 7 to 2. The Crimson's lineup of Fels Carter, Tom Masterson, and John Gay opposed Amherst's Georges, Schfiller, and Wells.

Saturday Peroy's squad will wind up its intercollegiate competition when it plays host to Yale in the Indoor Athletic Building. The team lost to Yale last year by a hotly-disputed one point, and have been aiming for this match all season.
