The National Individual Championships
Norman Armitage Retains Sabre Title
Dernell Every and Helena Mroczkowska Capture Foil Titles. Fred Siebert Wins Championship.
On four successive days, beginning May 4th, 94 individual competitors assembled in New York City at one time or another to compete for the four championship fencing titles awarded annually by the A.F.L.A. At the end of those four days, the Bout Committee had conducted 408 official bouts, and announced the crowning of three new Champions and the continued reign of one of its 1939 Champions.
Norman Armitage of the Fencers Club was the only 1939 champion to defend his title successfully when he won the National Sabre Championship for the sixth time. Dernell Every of the New York Athletic Club won the National Foil Championship which he had held in 1938 and had lost last year to Norman Lewis of the Salle Santelli. Fred Siebert, an epeeist new to New York competition, won the National Epee Championship, displacing Loyal Tingley, his teammate from the Illinois Division. Miss Helena Mroczkowska, a senior at Hofstra College, captured the National Women's Foil Championship which had been left undefended by Miss Helena Mayer of the Northern California Division.
We present a chronological report of the fencing by weapons, giving individual results and bout scores. Other details may be found in The Remise column.

NATIONAL FOIL CHAMPIONSHIP
New York Fencers Club—May 4th.
After a last-minute triple tie for first place, Dernell Every of the N.Y.A.C. regained the Championship he had held in 1938 when he defeated his clubmate, Warren A. Dow, and Norman Lewis of the Salle Santelli in a fence-off. With preliminaries and semi-finals held in the afternoon, the evening featured a nine-man Finals which as midnight approached looked like a sweep for Warren Dow. He had a Finals record of six victories, no losses and two bouts to fence with no other Finalist with less than two losses to his record. In a surprise reversal he lost his last two bouts, giving both Every and Lewis a second chance at the Championship. Every and Lewis had started the Finals badly, each losing 2 of their first 4 bouts but thereafter winning their remaining bouts.
The fence-off, coming after at least nine hours of championship-caliber fencing, was primarily a test of stamina, with Every, Lewis and Dow coming off in that order on that basis. This was especially evident since Every's two defeats in the Finals had come at the hands of his two opponents in the fence-off.
In the nine-man Finals, four names appeared for the first time: Silvio Giolito of the N.Y.A.C., fourth; Lieutenant Richard Steere of the U. S. Navy, sixth; Nathaniel Lubell of the Salle d’Armes Vince, eighth; and Maxwell Garret of the Salle d’Armes Vince, ninth. The two remaining finalists were Dr. John R. Huffman of the N.Y.A.C., fifth, and Jose R. de Capriles of the Salle Santelli, seventh.

NATIONAL EPEE CHAMPIONSHIP
The Salle Santelli—May 5th
Fred Siebert of the Lake Shore Athletic Club of Chicago won the National Epee title after a fence-off with Alfred Skrobisch of the Fencers Club. Both men had a record of six wins and two losses at the completion of the Finals. Loyal Tingley, the defending champion, finished third, one bout behind the gold and silver medalists.
This competition was the most confusing of all the week’s individual events as the lead see-sawed back and forth among the first six men throughout the first half of the Finals. As the Finals neared completion, however, the first three men drew away from the others with Skrobisch in a one-bout lead as the last bout was called between Siebert and Jose de Capriles. Siebert trailed 0-2 and it looked like another epee title for the Fencers Club when Siebert ran off three touches to win the right to a fence-off for first. He defeated Skrobisch 3-1 for the title.
Eugenio Sardina of Cuba was fourth on touches over Jose de Capriles of the Salle Santelli after they tied at four wins apiece. Carlos Lamar of Cuba was sixth, Commander Leonard Doughty of the U. S. Navy was seventh, while eighth and ninth places went to Leo Nunes of the N.Y.A.C. and Robert Driscoll of the Fencers Club, respectively.

NATIONAL WOMEN’S FOIL CHAMPIONSHIP
New York Fencers Club—May 7th
With Miss Helena Mayer not able to come on from California, this was the only individual championship of the year which was undefended by its 1939 Champion. There was no single outstanding contender for the vacant title as the competition began, there being several girls closely matched, each with her own group of supporters and well-wishers.
Miss Helena Mroczkowska of Hofstra College provided the surprise of the week in coming through the Championship with a clear claim to the title. She won seven of her eight bouts in the nine-girl Finals, losing only to Miss Mildred Stewart, the girl who had acted as her amateur coach since she first started to fence only three years ago. Miss Mroczkowska had placed fifth last year, which was her second season of fencing and had won the Intermediate title earlier this season, thereby becoming the first person to win the Intermediate (old National Junior) title and the National Open Championship in the same year. She had admittedly been conceded a good chance to place in the Opens but yet with only three years’ experience the Title itself seemed a bit out of reach. She proved the early-guessers wrong with a fine display of steady, consistent point-making and with the unfailing stamina which has always marked her fencing.
Mrs. Marion Lloyd Vince of the Salle d’Armes Vince and Miss Mildred Stewart of the Salle Santelli were tied for second with six wins and two losses apiece. Mrs. Vince took second with a six-point advantage over Miss Stewart who was third. Miss Barbara Cochrane of the Salle Santelli was fourth on touches over Mrs. Jarmila Vokral of the Salle Herrmann of Philadelphia, while Mrs. Lisel Oppenheim of the New England Division was sixth. Miss Carol King of the Illinois Division, Miss Moreene Fitz of the Southern California Division, and Miss Dorothy Grimmelmann of the Salle Santelli were tied for seventh place in bouts but finished seventh, eighth, and ninth in that order on the basis of touches.
