1942's edition of the Crimson fencing team finished the season at New York cut to pieces by the keen swordsmen of the other members of the Eastern Intercollegiate Fencing League. In Saturday's meet, the fencers had little success in coping with the superior duelers of such aggregations as N. Y. U. and Army, and did not take one individual place in the day's events.

In the foil competition, Captain Joe Koch, with mates George Wilbur and John Vaughan, won a total of seven matches, but dropped eight to take 10th place. In the epee division, the Varsity met with more luck, winning seven of 16, but again finished in the 10th spot. The sabre standings placed the Crimson in the same position, 10th among 13 teams participating.
