Port Golf Team Wins Over Roslyn 3-2

Port Washington High School Goll Team, led by EmUio Clpriano. turned in a defeat over Roslyn High School by a 3-2 count. The matches were played at Bethpage and live men participated from each school. The victory was hard-earned and was very encouraging to the Port boys because Roelyn was undefeated until then. This was also the first time that a team from Port had turned in a victory in golf.

The first victory- was earned by Bmillo Clprirftio, who won his match by 1 up'. This match was close tintil the last few holes where EmlUo turned on the pressure and became the victor. The other two victories for Port were earned by Pete Miglletta and Prank Clpriano. Pete won by the one-sided score of 5 and 3. while Prank won by a big-ger score of 5 and 4. The only vic-tories for Roslyn were at the ex-pense of Tony Contino and Allison Brooks.

Monday the team takes on a powerful Olen Cove team and on Wednesday a return mat^ with noslyn is scheduled. Per the first time in school competition the scores were fairly good but with practice they will Improve. Much credit must go to Mr. Hendrlckson who gives up his time to take the boys to the course. With such a good start It Is hoped that this qiort will continue In our high school.
