Crimson Swordsmen Win

In the opening round all the Harvard swordsmen but the Freshman entrant won places in the semi-finals, and in the succeeding round Mackin failed to qualify, while the remaining four were pitted against one another in the finals. In the final round, Allen, Cassidy, and Wesselman, scored an equal number of victories, but although such figures would indicate a tie, the judges awarded the first prize to the last named, who had totaled the largest number of touches. Cassidy won the second prize, while the third fell to Allen. The awards consisted of a gold, a bronze, and a silver medal respectively.

Tonight at 8 o'clock in the same place the epee and saber competitions will take place.
