N.C.A.A. Championships in St. Louis
The annual fencing championships among the members of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, originally scheduled for March 28 at Cleveland, has been shifted to Washington University at St. Louis.
It had been planned originally that an open central intercollegiate fencing meet would be held at Washington University on March 21. The Cleveland arrangements for the N.C.A.A. competition had in the meantime run into difficulties and the Washington University authorities agreed upon short notice to accept the N.C.A.A. championship on March 28 in its stead. That is now the arrangement although technical differences have yet to be decided. The N.C.A.A. championships will probably follow last year’s pattern and be limited to individual championships among association members.
Alex Solomon, St. Louis A.F.L.A. chairman, and formerly of Yale, will act as bout committee chairman. Lon Hocker, formerly of Princeton, will serve with him. Orest Meykar, fencing coach at Washington University, will act as technical advisor. For further information write to Mr. Meykar at 5537 Suburban Tracks, St. Louis.
