School of Eclucaiion Fencing Team GROUP of young men and women sallied out last semester to organize and sup- port a Fencing Team. Now at last after many handicaps their splendid adventure has succeeded. En garde! Fencing, that gay old and fascinating sport with its lightning thrusts and flashing parries, with its ever demanding agility, stealth and poise is back again in N. Y. U. Thanks to the wholehearted cooperation of the Department of Physical Education which has made Fencing a part of the School of Education Intramural activities. The students have taken complete advantage of this opportunity to acquire that essential balance. Thanks to the untiring, unselflsh encouragement of Coach Hyman Krakower and his never say die assistants Bob Schick and Al Mirelman. A squad of quite capable foilsmen have been slowly but steadily developed, and soon, in the very near future, Coach Kralcower has promised that negotiations will be made for tournaments with City College, St. johns, Townsend Harris and other available teams. The members of the Fencing squad are: JAMES MORREI. MURRY FELDMAN NAT ROSEN EARNIE FALKAWITZ JOE B. ROTHENBERG JOE HAMMER CELIA STRAUSS EILEEN MAGEE GERT YESELSON IDA KAPLAN HELEN POSNER EDNA GRIEE KATHRYN HAWKINS MILDRED ROSENZWEIG MEN ARCHIE CHESNEAU HARRY WEISBERG HARRY WEINER DOMINIC MARINELLO SAMUEL KLEINSTEIN BEN LEIBOWITZ WOMEN RENEE MARTIN MONICA CZURLES RITA WEISS CAROLYN Moss CHICK RYDEERG SYLVIA DORE JUDITH LICHTERNSTEIN SI-IERRY MOROWITZ 214 HARRY WEINBAUM VICTOR GOLDEERG WILLIAM GUTSCHMIDT AI.

Educalion Handball Team NOTHER of the newcomers to Education sports circles is thc Handball team. Under the management of Les Kaplan, it has developed remarkably. Witlm Scheiber, Schachter, the Bernstein brothers and Les himself, the school is well represented. Because of lack of opportunity to meet other collegiate teams, an unusual list of opponents was compiled. Among them are jamaica jewish Center, Knights of Colum- bus, Brooklyn Elks, Cooper Union, jewish Community House QBrooklynJ and the Brooklyn Union. Temple. The opening victories over Cooper Union and the Elks were tempered by a 4-1 trimming at the hands of the Community House. 213

i Educafion Gymnasfic Team HOUGH the School of Education has had Basketball and Soccer teams before, the Gym team is a new departure. It was organized at the beginning of the Fall semester, 1930. - Unlike the other teams, the Gym squad was not formed primarily for the pur- pose of competition but for demonstrations. It is intended that a series of exhibitions be given at various secondary and normal schools, in order that the work at New York University in Physical Education and Health may be better known. Mr. Rodgers, the coach, has assembled a team that would, if it did enter competi- tion, give an excellent account of itself. Irwin Trincher, the sophomore manager of the team, feels that a group capable of making such a great advance as this one has in such a short period is worthy of representing the school. 215
