Fencing Is ‘Sport for Gentlemen’ So Shortridge Club Bars Girls

15 Meet Each Week for Practice; Also Attend “Y” Lectures. “No Girls Allowed,” reads the constitution of the Shortridge High School Fencing Club. “Fencing is a gentlemans sport,” according to Arthur Jacobs, club organizer and president. The 15 club members meet every Tuesday afternoon in the high school projection room, or on the roof, for practice and sometimes a lecture by an expert fencer. A majority of the members attend the Young Men’s Christian Association class on Thursday nights with Alfred Sapecky, Buffalo, N. Y„ instructor. Jacobs, Bill Balch, Don Harkness and several others interested in learning the art of lunging and the intricacies of fencing canvassed the teachers about six weeks ago to find one with a knowledge of the sport and one willing to be a sponsor. C. L. Morrison of the physics department consented. In addition to its exclusion of girls, the constitution requires that pupils have passing marks in all subjects, that they have permission from their parents, their doctor and four teachers, including Mr. Morrison. Foil ant. mask are the only necessary equipment and these are manufactured in France. The club has no dues, merely small assessments for bringing lecturers before the group. It is the hope of Jacobs, president; Balch. vice president; Don Harkness, secretary; Mr. Morrison and the members that other high schools will form fencing teams for interscholastic meets.
