Fencing, which has become one of the
most popular sports among the girls
of the Seminaries and colleges of WASH
ington. will be a major Spring sport
on the HoltOn Arms program this year,
but has been cut from the schedule
at George Washington, much to the dis
appointment of the co-eds. 1t is hoped
that university officials will reinstate
it on next years athletic program.
many of the strongest fencers in the Dis
trict were developed at George Wash
ington last year. and the outstanding
event of the Spring season for student
sportswomen-the District of Columbia
fencing championship-was held in the
H street gymnasium. The withdrawal
of the Colonials from competition this
year will rob the 1929 matches of their
color.
Christine Ekengren, present District
titleholder, will defend her crown in the
individual championship, and will COM
pete again as member of the Holton
Arms squad in the team series, which
will be arranged under the direction of
Major Walter Blount, who inStructs
most of the local teams.
Interest In wOmen's polo teams is
increasing in the South as evidenced
by reports from Fort Benning, Ga
where a fast four has been organized
among the women of the post. 1t was
thought by the Benningites at the time
of their organization this Fall that
theirs was the first team of its kind

Mohawks not only claim the District
but South Atlantic independent and
semi-pro foot ball championships as
we'll after their 12-to-6 victory over
Irvington A. c. eleven, Maryland cham
pions, in Grifith Stadium yesterday.
About 1000 people saw the two big
teams battle. Although the Hawks led
at half time, to 0, the visitors got
their offenSe under way and evened the
court soon after the second half got
under way.
Wilton's charges revived quickly and
again took the lead to hold it.
Abbotticcio was the big ground gain
er for the Hawks.
Joe Lynch, former Gonzaga back, ran
80 yards in the last quarter yesterday to
give Dinty Hughes picked eleven a 12-
to-6 win over NorthernS at Union
League Park. Lynch was the offensive
star throughout the contest. scoring
both of the victor's touchdownS. Col
liere counted for the losers. when he
intercepted pass and ran 30-yards to
register 6 points.
Claim Is being made by National
Press Building Cards to the 135-pound
independent championship following
their I2-to-0 triumph over Pennants

pin count for the high set Of the sea-
son, Frye cut three naples out Of the

stellar brand of rolling all year has
not only placed him in the lead in in
dividual averages, but gained him city
wide recognition.
Even with this big set the Union
Printers fell victims to Rialtos. After
swamping Rialto in the first game,
Meyer Weinberg practically single
handed won the second for Rialto with
a game of 155. The final tilt found the
