Personol Congratulations to Sandy and Steve Sobel

for John Eric, born July 27, 1964.

Congratulations to us - this completes our 15th year of publication.

Elizabeth Ferrari The passing of Elizabeth Ferrari on June 9,

1964 is mourned by the Northern California Division, and by her many friends in other areas.

She was active as a fencer and divisional corresponding secretary for three years. Two years ago her health began to foil, yet she continued her work at the Hooper Foundation at the University of California in San Fran­cisco, and her art studies at the university in Berkeley.

Elizabeth was, a woman of great intelli­gence, dignity, wit and charm. Although her medical knowledge must have made her fully aware of her illness and its prognosis, she approached her end with a calm courage and poise worthy of the highest troditians of fencing.

ANOTHER INNOVATION

Now - another step forward that will please so many fencers - un­breakable plastic handles (to re­place wooden ones) on all of our standard french foils. Light, tough, perfectly cast to fit your hand, it makes your foil a better weapon than ever before. Just one more among the hun­dreds of innovations we have de­veloped since 1914 in order to make the game safer and more enjoyable.

NEW feNCERS IN NEW MEXICO

by Belle Saunders Starting from scrotch in two short years

a priest in New Mexico has built up on enthusiastic and most promising group of fencers. These students have fenced well in local competitions and are learning to love the sport.

Father Eugene Botelho of the Son Juan Mission, Farmington, has introduced fencing in all three weapons. He fenced epee at Haverford College in Pennsylvania and set a record for the number of bouts won against those lost that went unbroken for almost 20 years. He was also Epee Champion of the Philadelphia Division in 1941 and Epee Champion of Wisconsin in 1947.

In his coaching Father Botelho emphasizes good manners and good sportsmanship, and not winning at all costs. On his return to competition circles he was concerned to see and hear the lock of courtesy and sportsman­ship on the strip. "Fencing is assocaited with gentlemen" f he states, 1/ and the manners and behavior of gentlemen should be dis­played. Article 390 of the AFLA Rules (page 65) should be known, but should not be brought to the fencer's attention as a threat to force seemly behavior on the strip".

In February of this year the Farmington Fencing Club sponsored on invitational meet for the New Mexico Division. In the novice foil event Father Botelho's students took the top three places against a group from Albu­querque. He writes: "Fencing has always been fun. Winning is a pleasant experience. I t should not be a matter of rude manners or of boorish behavior thot other fencers­and spectators-remember'!.

With the success of his team it can be seen that good manners and sportsmanship does not prevent Father Botelho's boys from getting their shore of medals.

CANADA TOURNAMENT The 10th annual Canadian Heroes Memo­

THE 1964 NATIONALS by Dr. Daniel Bukant%, Chairman

Notional Bout Cammmittee The Tournament was held in Atlantic

ity's beautiful and spacious Convention Hall. he New Jersey Division hosted one of the TIoothest running competitions ever held, ith 15 metallic strips available. The lighting as good and space between the strips was jfficient to insure the safety of officials. lectrical equipment was abundant and the 'ouble shaoting by the Technical Commit­,e was unbelievably quick and efficient. 'ur thanks far the magnificent work of the Irganizing Committee headed by Tony Orsi.

No individual champion was able to re­eat, yet each was in contention until the ery end. The fencing was excellent. As is sual in an Olympic year, the entry list was lrge for individual events. In the post, the latianals were the ultimate tryout for the Ilympic Team. This year there was to be

"super" tryout at the World's Fair im­,ediately following the Nations and this un­oubted!y hod the effect of reducing the ze of the entry in team events.

Despite the large entry and the limited me available, each event finished on sched­Ie except the epee individual which required ostponement of the final to the following ay.

I t would not have been possible to handle II the problems inherent in such a taurna­,ent without the invaluable assistance of a reat many officials, and especially of Irwin ernstein, Jose de Capriles, Ralph Goldstein, ill Latzka, Paul Makler, Denise O'Connor nd Ed Ze isig.

tHE OLYMpiC TRYOUTS World's Fair - July 12-14, 1964

The Tryouts at the World's Fair were a 19nificent fencing show. The large stage ::I the angle of the two strips gave the audi­:e on excellent view of the bouts. The ooth conduct of the events was a tribute the careful planning and attention to de­l which Rolph Goldstein provided.

The new National Champions were at a advantage. For them, it was an anti­nax and the fine edge they had attained ew days before was dulled. They all placed h or lower. Nevertheless the fencing was :ellent and the winners were all proven lmpions.

Harriet King, who had lost her notional wn by one bout, out-steadied three other ,tenders in a four-way fence-off. Alice ·akin, Madeline Miyamoto and Maxine tchell who hod foiled to reach the finals the Notions, placed 5th, 6th and 7th

:>ectively.

)aniel Magay regaine dthe superb tech-01 control he locked in the Nationals and eated on inspired Robert Blum in a fence-

for first in sabre. Three men tied for ·d.

crank Anger, Pan American Champion, shed Lorry Anastasi in the fence-off for t in epee. Robert Beck placed third but >sed a tie for first when he fenced his

bout in a reckless hurry.

"Ibert Axelrod scored a clear victory in ; one. The pleasant surprise was Bob ,sell's excellent competitive effort which ned him a second place on touches over Richards. Uriah Jones hod a golden oppor­ity to become the first Negro to make Olympic fencing team, but he either had off day or the pressure was too great. He , been 0- consistent and strang performer pite his relative inexperience in fencing.

SELECTION OF 1964 OLYMPIC TEAM by Dr. Paul T. Makler, Chairman, Epee

U. S. Olympic Fencing Committee The procedure for team selection was pub­

lished in May and September of 1963. The best 2 of 3 preliminary events, plus the 1964 National Championships, were to be used to determine cumulative points and de­cide who would compete in the Tryout at the N.Y. World's Fair. The top nine, plus any tied for 9th, would be invited. A "tie" was defined as within one place (J 1 pOints). The results of the Tryout would be added to previously earned points and the top 5 in each category would be the team. In the event of a tie (within 17 points, after the Tryout) ·the Committee would choose. The number of points for ties (11 or 17) are de­rived from the point weighting system that fixes 12 points for one place after the Na­tionals and J 8 points after the Tryout.

Just before the Nationals we were informed that a new IOC ruling mode Hamori, Keresztes and Magay eligible for the U. S. team. Previously they hod been barred be­cause they represented Hungary in the 1956 Olympics. We had to devise a system that did not penalize them for being excluded from the earlier tryouts. We dicided to re­cord their resuults in the 1964 Nationals and credit them with a similar performance in the events from which they hod been exclud­ed. At the end of the Notionals 10 entered the Try-out in Epee, 11 in Foil and Women's Foil and 12 in Sabre. After the Tryout, the standings in each weapon were:

The Committee in each case selected the top five point winners, selecting Anastasi in two weapons. The top four scorers going into the Tryout, in each weapon, held their places while the fifth (or tied for 5th) was replaced by the results of the Tryout. In foil, Jones dropped from his tie with Richards and Russell's fine performance did not catch the leaders. In Epee, Anastasi and Beck rOse above Wommack and Morales. The latter was omitted as on epee alternate because of his place on the sabre team. In Sabre, Blum and Mogay tied for first with Magay winning the fence-off. This result, coupled with lesser performances by Dasaro and Farber, gave Blum fifth and Magay sixth. Farber was selected alternate over Mayer on the basis of his greater consistency during the past few years. In Women's Foil, a strong finish by Drungis (tied for first) and a weakening by Sokol and Mitchell, caused a 3-way tie for fifth. Drungis was selected over Miyamoto and Gerakin.

Dr. Paul T. Makler had already been named Captain, and Dr. Tibar Nyilas was chosen his laternate. The Olympic Coaches are Michel Alaux and Chaba Elthes. Edward Lucia is alternate to Mr. Alaux and Lajos Csiszar to Mr. Elthes. Dr. Joseph Byrnes was selected Armorer, with James Castello

as alternate.

The Committee is only too aware that the selections leave wounds. Daniel Magay, who

AMERICAN FENCING

won the sabre Tryout, did not make the team and Bob Russell, with his excellent second place in foil, also missed. Choosing among the three tied women was difficult. When a series of tryouts is used, rather than one, such happenings are inevitable. Corre­spondence during the post few years and opinions expressed during the post few weeks make me very sure that the U. S. fencers wont their Olympic teams selected on the basis of a visible point system that enables each one to see how his record compares with that of his rival. We congratulate the Team and hope that those who came close will be stimulated to superior performances.

OBSERVATION ON THE NATIONALS by Eugene Blanc, Jr.

~o gloss on the Nationals can properly in without praise and thanks to the Host ision and the Organizing Committee. The llts of hard work and long preparation e everywhere evident. The many juries, ~rs, technicians, scorers, etc. all deserve gratitude.

n sabre the trend to the longer attack was lent. The blades seldom met in the con­tional en garde position and there were er actions on the blade. Hamori eschewed 1 the en garde squat. He advanced and eo ted agilely from an upright position went into his fleches from straight knees.

esztes fenced cautiously until his first t with Hamori, when he switched to ressive multiple attacks. In the thrilling :e-off he reverted to his earlier game. Jay had an "off day" yet managed to :h the finals. He typifies the cool classic :er. Bloom, Dasara and Keane exempli-

the long-range game with fast, multiple ons. Morales was the best conditioned ete in the field and again tied for the

,juries plagued the sabremen. Hy Shore ered a sprained ankle; Hamori a strain the left thigh; Curt Ettinger pulled a cle; Harry Mayer turned on ankle; Wally )er injured his left leg; Bobby Blum had 'vere cramp, as did Tom Orley.

'here were many instances of good fencing lners and a few others thot could be cized. Fortunately good sportsmanship 'oiled and at the end the competitive nosities disappeared and the congratula­; bestowed on the chomp ion were sincere.

everal observations emerge quite clearly. c, the competitive phases of fencing have whelmed- its chivalric and traditional ,cts. This is a loss. The leoders of the of, the maitres d'armes and the top flight ,petitors should toke the initiative in re­ing the importance of the classic ameni-and formal conventions, without loss of combatative elements. Solutes, hand­

kes, and courtesies on the strip should be

je Twenty

more than perfunctory. As young men are developed, they should be indoctrinated with the history and symoblism of fencing - let the virus that bites us give them a case of courtesy as part of the fever of fencing. SecondF with the "long game" prevalent in

foil on the attack, the retreat, as Prof. Hugo Castello has so well pointed out, has become an assential part of the parry. May I also suggest three other effects. There is the added difficulty in making a riposte in swift retreat if the latter is partly or wholly re­placing a parry. There is the added value in a reprise or continuation of on attock which has foiled only because defender re­treated. I noticed many instances where it seemed the defender had been left in a vulnersble position (physically or psychologi­cally)· by his retreat so that the attacker by on immediate continuation would have hod a clear advantage. The third effect is a tendency to lose belance after on over-extend­ed lunge, thus laying the attacker open to a riposte or on attock.

Another conclusion from these Nationals is the necessity of condition. I am sure we will foce many superbly conditioned athletes in Tokyo's fencing arena. Fencing competi­

tion is now 0 test of stomina as well as fencing techniques. Stamina cannot be ocquired without thorough and painstaking physicial conditioning which I hope will be an important part of the Olympic Team's training this summer.

The last generality to be drawn from the Nationals is the relationship between the AFLA and the colleges. We must encourage and strengthen our ties with such organiza­tions os the IFA, NCAA and IWFA Of the 285 entries only 35, or obout 12% came from colleges and only two collegians (Pesthy and Abby) were among the 24 finolists. A closer association between the colleges and solles or clubs could stimulate greoter inter­est and development of college fencers. Col. Hull, the AAU Executive Director, hos an­nounced a vastly expanded Junior Olympic progrom for 1965. The AFLA should be olert to secure a proper place for fencing in the program.
