Fencing in Gisborne
Fencing already has a number of enthusiastic devotees in Gisborne, and these pictures show this ancient art being practised by members of the Y.M.C.A. Fencing Club, which was formed late last year.
Pat Griffin, at right, demonstrates a "stop-hit" in combat with Frances Lee (left). In background is Don Braithwaite (club captain, Napier Club), who recently visited Gisborne for instructional purposes.

Mr Braithwaite, Miss Beverley Cobb, and Mrs Cashmere (Napier) give demonstrations.
