At the meeting of the Intercollegiate Fencing Association held in New York last Saturday after the Harvard-Columbia tournament, A. G. Thacher of Harvard, was elected president and Fitzhugh Townsend of Columbia, secretary and treasurer. Next autumn the secretary will send out a circular letter to the leading colleges for information in regard to the status of fencing in these colleges and the chances of being able to turn out a good team. This will be an informal letter and will not commit the association to any action. It is hoped that West Point and Annapolis will send teams to compete next year.
