The first competition of the Portland division of the A. F. L. A. was held on January 31. It was a Prep foil competition won by Charles Manlove of Reed College. A triple tie for second was decided by a count of touches: Kenji Okamoto of the Benson High School Cavaliers received second prize and his clubmate, William Wellman, placed third, while Hugo Lundborg of the Multnomah Athletic Club placed fourth.
A women's Prep foil competition was held on February 7. Two fence-offs of a triple tie for first place failed to break the deadlock, and the competition was recessed until February 10. Final winners were Alta Mae Coffin, Y. M. C. A., first; Hortense Gusick, Fencers Club, second; and Sadie Miller, Multnomah Athletic Club, third.
The fencers of Portland report very good cooperation from the city's two leading newspapers, which have thus far printed full descriptions of all matches in their sports pages.
