The Honeycutt Trophy
A new trophy has been donated for the Metropolitan three-weapon team competition formerly known as the Allaire trophy match. The John Allaire Memorial Trophy, formerly contested for in this competition, will hereafter be awarded to the national individual foil champion. As a result of the generosity of F. Barnard O’Connor, former A. F. L. A. president, a new three-weapon trophy has been created to the memory of General Francis W. Honeycutt, individual foil champion in 1904 and captain of the American Olympic Team of 1920 at Antwerp, who lost his life in the line of duty in an airplane crash last year. The first competition for the new trophy will be held at the New York Athletic Club on January 18.
