...three-day University fencing tournament was concluded yesterday when Captain Al Labastie of the Varsity team won the sabre competition to add to his victory on Wednesday in the foil division.

George Dana came through with a third in the three meter dive, and the Harvard relay foursome of Fraunic Powers, Lonnte Stowell, Cutler, and Jim Curwen took a third in the 400-yard event...
