Mr. Nold.t To Study in Texas Mr. Roger W. Noldt, head of the Science Department, has been awarded a Nati-onal Science Foundation Grant for Academic Year Institute at the University of Texas, Austin, Texas, for the school year 1960-61. The grant covers tuition and books plus stipend and tr.ave! allowance. He will work in specially designed courses in physics, chemistry, biology, and earth science, with work in other areas possible. This year's work may be applied toward an advanced degree if de" sired. These gr.ants are usually awarded to teachers of the secondary school level, therefore, it is even more of an honor for a teacher whose experience has been with boys from the sixth through the ninth grades. Mr. Noldt has been teaching here at school for five and a half years I and besides the Science Department, he has been Recreational Director, chairman of the AudioVisual Aids Dep-a rtment, and has taught in the shop. We here at Cardigan regret seeing Mr. and Mrs. Noldt leave our srhool, but want to wish them every success in the school year to come. While you are basking in southern sunshine, think of us up here at Cardigan in 24" of new powder snow.
