Giving University coeds a chance
to see fencing in action, Miss Paula
Sweeney, winner of the National
Individual and Team Foil Cham-
pionship title in June and meni-
ber of the U.S. 1952 Olympic Wom-
en's Foil Team, will give a demon-
stration tonight at 7:15 p.m. at
WAB.
With the call of "in line" an in-
structor of fencing will face Miss
Sweeney on the 40 foot long, 6 inch
wide strip of canvas. After the sa-
lute, the director's call of "on
guard" will begin the bout.
THIS SPORT of skill developed
in U.S. during the latter part of
the 19th century. Formerly a meth-
od of settling disputes and griev-
ances depending on muscles, it now
is a battle of wits and nerves.
Fencing provides training in
hand-eye coordination. It de-
velops speed, agility and good
sportsmanship.
The winner of a bout is decided
by the number of touches to his
credit. A touch, to be valid, must
be in accordance with the rules
and done so that a counter hit is
prevented.
* * *
JUDGES keep count of the
touches. When one is made the
match is stopped. Play is resumed
when the validity of the touch is
determined.

A light grip on the foil is most
important in order to allow free-
dom of movement. The foil is
431/ inches from the blunted
tip of the blade to the end of the
handle.
All coeds interested in fencing
classes or the advanced club are
welcome. After the demonstration,
Miss Sweeney will answer ques-
tions about the fundementals and
rules of the sport.

Watching the serenity of Christmas skies
we are conscious of deep silence. Yet the
stars are talking to us all the while-talking
in radio waves that are full of meaning to
scientists probing the depths of space.
The important discovery that some stars
produce radio waves was made by a
Bell Laboratories scientist while exploring
atmospheric disturbances which might in-
terfere with transoceanic telephone serv-

night?
And so from the probings and skills of
Bell System scientists and engineers has
come another tool to help man understand
better the universe in which he lives.
These men are a proud team-members of
a still larger team engaged in research,
engineering and administration and work-
ing on telephone problems in all parts of
the country. We would like you to con-
sider joining them.
