Word has been received that Maurice Grasson, son of Robert Grasson, the Yale Fencing Master and last Olympic Foil Coach, has turned professional. He had been Intercollegiate Foil Champion in 1937, member of the 1937 National Junior Epee Team and Captain of the 1938 Yale Fencing Team. He is now teaching fencing to a group of schools, colleges, and clubs in New London, Hartford, and Middletown, Conn. Robert Grasson is now head of the largest professional fencing family in America, counting himself, his sons Albert and Maurice, and son-in-law Gordon.
