en PAN AMERICAN FENCING COMMITTEES

Because of the cancellation of Olympic Games for an indefinite period, amateur sportsmen in the Western Hemisphere have organized the Pan American Games for International Sports Competition among the countries of North and South America. Each sport must organize its own committees to act toward the Pan American Games organization in the same capacity as the Olympic Games Committees functioned toward the National Olympic Committees.

The A.F.L.A., the N.C.A.A. and the A.A.U. have recently appointed the following fencing committees:

Pan American Fencing Committee—Miguel A. de Capriles, Dernell Every, Dr. Graeme M. Hammond, Dr. John R. Huffman, Leon M. Schoonmaker and Harold Van Buskirk.

Fencing Advisory Committee—Norman C. Armitage, Edward Carfagno, George Cochrane, Ferrard Leicester, Dr. Frank A. Riebel and Frank S. Righeimer, Jr.
