SHORT NOTES
A young chap from Maryland entered the N.Y.A.C. College Invitation Tournament late in December. He was extremely interested in fencing, but all his teaching had been confined to the reading of the books on fencing. There had never been an opportunity to receive a regular lesson from a fencing instructor. This self-taught boy, however, gave a pretty good account of himself. He won two bouts and just missed qualifying on touches. When it was all over, he commented on the fact that the college fencers, considering the instruction they receive and the opportunity for competitive experience, showed very poor form and very little promise.
One of Mr. Joseph Vince’s pupils has told us that Mr. Nedo Nadi is taking lessons in foil from Mr. Vince... We wonder if Mr. Nadi is contemplating a match soon.
We are very pleased with the enthusiastic way our information bureau has been received. Numerous letters have come to us with various questions and in most cases we have been rewarded with an appreciative comment. If anything is troubling you, we will be only too glad to help you as best we can.
