W FENCING Destined tor greener pastures in l958, the Fordham Fencing Team managed to overcome its financial and manpower difficulties, and can now boast ot an eighteen man team. The interest in Fencing has steadily increased since its inception in l956, and under the competent coaching ot Mr. Peter O'Connor, the team is beginning to blossom out and gain maturity. To assist Coach O'Connor in his work is the teamls captain, Murray Lieber, who has brought his teammates closer together and enkindled in them a fine sense ot sportsman- ship. Since a team must operate as one and not as a multitude ot individual personalities, but does, however, depend on one or even several outstanding members, let us not forget Juan Cam, who astonished his opponents with sud- den bursts ot speed and energy once he had foil in hand, or Tom Feher, the epee whiz, whose patience invariably broke down the op- position, and finally let us turn the limelight on lvan Csete, whose saber thrusts and cuts ruled the fencing strip. Practicing the lunge. En garde! 205

BOWLING After winning the l957-i958 East Coast Championship, the Fordham Keglers this Year got off to a slow start and thus far have been unable to break into the top four positions of the 25 team league. The high individual team game so far has been a 996, which was bowled against Queens College. John McCormack has both the high 3 game series for the Rams with a 6l9, and high game for the season, an impressive 247. It was no wonder that when theteam gave its best efforts during the months of January and February, that they won l2 games in a row. Ed Mowton, a junior from the downtown division, has proved to be the most consistent bowler, and has led the team averagewise over the past two seasons with a l8O. The l2 game winning streak could never have been accomplished without Charley McGivney, and Mike Cohen, both from 302 Broadway. Charley contributed many vital strikes and spares, and bowled an average of i775 Mike had a 246 game during the year which was the second highest individual game for the season. The team captain for the past two years was John McCormack, a senior on the uptown cam- pus. He is a four year man and was also presi- dent of the Eastern Intercollegiate Bowling Conference in his junior and senior years.

ROWING As you drive along the winding Shore Road in Pelham and look out over the sparkling water of Long Island Sound, you can usually see the shells of the Fordham Crew as they race along during practice. Stop the car a moment and you will notice Coach Jack Sulger directing practice and put- ting the high spirited oarsmen through their paces. There is nothing more exciting than.'the thrill ot a race when months ot practice sud- denly pay off. The teams approach the start- ing line and the crew members are tense, awaiting the starting gun. Suddenly they are oft, eight oars stroke the water at the same instant and the long conditioning shows its effect. Win or lose there is a tremendous feeiing ot accomplishment associated with this sport, Crew gets into your blood despite all the exertion it requires. Last year, the hard working team, without G.
