The Italian swordsman came to Buda- pest in 1896, when the Hungarlans were celebrating the thousandth anniversary of their arrival on the Danube plain. | He met the regent, then a young naval officer, at that time, and says that Ad- | miral Horthy is as strong a fencer as he was more than a generation ago. | Santelli trained four of the six Hun- garian fencers who will compete in the Olympic games at Los Angeles, and is | confident. they will make a good show- | ing. 1 Need Skill in Duels.
