Kel- eher, V. Atwell, Miss Stewart (Adviser). The Athletic Council, formerly known as the Athletic Association, has done a great deal to forward athletic events during the past year. Its main purposes sre to raise money to pay the fees of officialsat all interscholas-tlc games, to purchase necessary incidental athletic equipment, and to conduct social and athletic programs. The main event sponsored by the Council during the 1939-40 administration was the Sport Dance. The floor show at this event was one of the best ever sponsored in the high school. A series of movies, including Abraham Lincoln, Timber War, and selected short subjects, was presented throughout the year. The organization has cooperated with the Student Council by purchasing ping-pong sets and records to carry out the familiar nocohour program. The Council , made up of five boys and five girls from the high school grades, is under the guidance of two faculty members. Blue crew hats, bearing the gold initials of the Newington Athletic Council, have been adopted as a symbol of membership in the organization.

GOLF TEAM Golf Team L-R: R. Lenczyk, 0. Manochi, Mr. Mahan (coach), J. Gocioch, C. Chalko. The golf team for 1940 looks better than the team of 1939 which won the state tournament and was undefeated In twenty games. However, this year's team won't compile as good a record as that of the previous year because competition with other high schools will be keener. The golf teams of other high schools, particularly Manchester and Hew Britain, are much improved over last year. John Gocioch, Orlando Manochi, John Komak, and Chester Chalko and Rudy Lenczyk, both veterans, are the golfers Newington High will depend upon this year.
