The Southern California Open Sabre title competition was held at the Los Angeles Athletic Club on March 27th and marked the end of the Southern California spring fencing season. The title went to Edward Carfagno of the L.A.A.C., with his clubmate, Howard Davis, taking second and Leonard Bellman of the Faulkner School of Fencing coming third. In addition to the official medals, Mr. Harry Davenport of Hollywood offered an attractive thirty-inch trophy to the winner, the trophy to become the permanent possession of any three-time winner. Mr. Carfagno received an individual replica of the trophy as a permanent prize.
