By unexpectedly outfighting Navy in the epee class, the Crimson swordsmen came from behind to win the team honors in this event at the forty-second annual title tournament of the Intercollegiate Fencing Association held on March 29 and 30 in the Hotel Commodore ballroom at New York.

The team of Edward Langenau, Dick Ford, and Webster Williams by a three bout win over their most formidable rival, Navy, which left the Midshipmen far behind and brought the total of 25 bouts won tied with New York for first place, but Harvard had only 25 touches against it compared to 31 against N.Y.U.
