Fencers Take Second Place
In Three- Way Tournament
Touche! . . . Beat, extend,
lunge!
These are odd words to be
hearing at any time in miodem
America and it was perhaps
even more unusual to hear them
coming from the Student Cen
ter Saturday, March 10.
But the claish of steel sound
ed for over five hours that aft
ernoon as Pfeiffer Ck)llege, the
Citadel and St. Andrews partici
pated in a three-way fencing
tournament. The Knights plac
ed second with their defeat of
Pfeiffer.
The three-way tourney was
the second collegiate competi
tion in which St. Andrews
Knights of the Blade have par

ago, was at the University of
North Carolina, including teams
from Duke, the University of
Detroit, Winston-Salem YMCA
and UNC.
St. Andrews placed third in
the UNC contest, being defeated
by the University of Detroit and
UNC.
Members of the St. Andrews
group are senior Bailey Phelps,
captain; John Waldin, Dave
Mitchell, Gordon Cleveland and
Nick Gordon, freshmen.
Future plans include a re
turn match with the Citadel on
April 6, tournaments with local
college teams and a trip to the
Virginia Military Institute’s In
vitational tournament.

the St. Andrews tennis team.”

An all-veteran St. Andrews
golf squad will meet Lynch
burg College Monday, April 1,
in the season’s first contest.
“The team is looking much
stronger,” said Coach Louis
Hoy. “Our chances are good —
even with bad weather slowing
down practice.”
Several low scores have been
shot in team qualifying rounds.
The red-headed half of the golf
coaching staff cited Bill Good-
ale, who tallied a 72, and Gene
Dukes, Alexander Law and Bill
Grossman, each with 76.
Other golfing students in
clude Eddie O’Herron, Jim
Peay, Link Wiley, Johnny Ham
rick and Wells Garden.
William Morgan is also a
coach of the golf team.
Two days each week the
squad practices on the course
in Laurinburg. The remaining
three days are spent on the St.
Andrews “green.”
of High Point.
The prospect of finishing up
the road tour and returning to
home cooked meals for at least
one day prior to the end of
Spring recess should inspire
the squad, headed by Captain
Doug Maxwell.
Two Games in Tennessee
Tennessee is the sight of rtihe
Baseball Nine’s next two games.
Milligan will be the opponent
on March 25 and 26. With the
Knight’s strong hitting and hus
tling fielding. Coach Ollis antici
pates making the MlHigan men
thankful that their earlier
game with SA was rained out.
Heading back down Laurin
burg way after itheir two
games in the Mountaineer
State, the Knights will make
a brief stop over in Pembroke
for nine innings. Since the game
being played is baseball and
not lacross, the team should
amass a 'good lead on the
Braves of Pembroke.
The big game to watch for
wiU be played at Legion
Field, Laurinburg on April 2
against V.M.I. This is the first
home game and after the long
