Miss Madeline Dalton, former Intercollegiate Champion, won the National Jr. Foil Championship on February 15th at the Fencers Club by scoring 8 wins in 9 bouts in the final round-robin. Her only conqueror was Miss Barbara Cochrane who finished fourth with 6 victories.
Miss Maria Cerra won the silver medal over Miss Mildred Stewart, when both finished with 7 wins, but Miss Cerra had received only 23 touches to her rival’s 26.
Miss Carol Alessandroni, ranking highest among junior women fencers, and an overwhelming favorite to win, fenced well below her best form and finished fifth with five wins. Mrs. Dolly Funke and Miss Dorothy Grummelman followed with 4 and 3 wins respectively.
