SPRING DANCE PARENTS VISIT CARDIGAN After much work on the part of Mr. and Mrs. Wakely and a group of volunteers in decorating the dining hall, the Spring Dance was held here at the school on Saturday, April 25th. All that afternoon the boys worked hard to make posters, put up crepe paper streamers and carry the tables and chairs out of the dining room, for it was decorated with recognition to Spring as being a time of circuses. In the evening Mrs. Smith, a teacher from Canaan School. came up and called the dances. 'l'he boys appreciated this very, much. Girls w<:re invited from Canaa'l, Lebanon and Hanover. The group started with a grand march led by Mr. and Mrs. Wakely and after that came many lively square dances such as "The Four Leaf Clover". Partners for the grand march were determined by numbers which were on the back of name tags handed out to both girls and boys. A short time before the end of the dance refreshments were served. Each boy was required to see that his partner for the grand march was served. The refreshments consisted of Cookies, Ice Cream and punch. The dance ended at about 10:30 with a loud chorus of "Good Night, Ladies" with Mr. Stowe at the piano. John McEwan •53
NEW PASTIME AT CARDIGAN IS MARBLES Shortly after vacation Mr. Heagy announced that if any boys wanted to participate there would be a marble tournament. The idea, marbles at Cardigan, was a success and now practically everyone is playing the game including the masters although they have not been too successful. The tournament has progressed far and should be most completed in a short time.
Since Spring vacation several parents have have visited their sons here at the school. They watched the boys condition the boats for spring use and saw them play baseball. The visitors were Mr. and Mrs. Apolant with their daughter and a friend , Mr. and Mrs. Turley with their daughter, and Mr. and Mrs. Deringer. These families all visited the school on the weekend of April 10th . Kim Clement '54
