CRIMSON FOILSMEN OUT-FENCE YALE IN HARD-FOUGHT MEET

On Saturday afternoon the Crimson foilsmen closed their regular season by registering a 5-4 win over Yale in Hemenway Gymnasium in the closest meet of the season. J. F. Leicester, the Yale captain, proved himself the most brilliant individual fencer by winning all three of his bouts with the same skill which he had shown in the meet that morning with M. I. T. Captain R. H. Snow '20 and G. P. Howard '21 each won two bouts and S. H. Ordway '21 contributed the match which determined the victory for Harvard by his 16-13 defeat of L. F. Bishop, Jr.
