In a match that Coach Edo Marion calls "the toughest of the year," the varsity fencing team will meet Columbia, last year's NCAA champions, at the I.A.B. at 3 p.m. Sunday. It will be the initial match of the newly-formed Ivy Fencing League.
"The prospect of our beating Columbia is not too hopeful," Marion said, "but we have shown a lot of drive this year and we might just upset them. Our open team is the strongest it has ever been, but our foil and sabre squads definitely need experience."
Fencing at foil for the Crimson against the light Blue will be Hubert Hocutt, Captain Pete Boyee, Steve Schneider, and Cliff Thompson. At sabre will be Doug Runnels, Dave Silbert, and Mitchell Thomas. Bob Adair, Bill Chapple, and Bill Pierskalla will fence epee.
