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.

However, defensively It was another story. The team compiled a mediocre record, winning ten and losing nine games. Two of the games lost were to the Class B New Britain Trade School. Eight of the nine games Newington lost were by comparatively small margins. The team entered annual State Class C-D ChamDionship at Weaver with a .6625 rating, or fifteenth out of the whole state. Plainfield was our opponent in the first round, and we lost 52-28. The regulars on the team were Ed. Keleher, Orlando Manochl, Chester Chalko, Herby Wilbur, and Rudy Lenczyk, all seniors, and Daniel Casey, a Junior. As a special game at the end of the regular season the team played the faculty. Led by Mr. Mahan, the faculty surprised all, but we won by 53-33.
