The New Proctor House

Proctor House was built in the school year of 1960-61 by Millard Uline of Lyme, New Hampshire.

It was named after Charles Albert Proctor, a trustee of the school. The plaque that hangs in the house states the following about him: Born, brought up, educated, and a life-long teacher in New Hampshire, Charles Albert Proctor freely gave his interest and versatile talents as a trustee of Cardigan Mountain School. Imparting his love for the out-ofdoors to boys became a v,alued service at Cardigan following his retirement from thirty-eight years of teaching at Dartmouth College where his scientific fame as a distinguished expert in physics was balanced by his mastery of winter

Cardigan's Annual Funds For six years Cardigan has been supplied with annual funds from five main donating groups. Each year the chairman of each group sends out letters asking for donations. The five groups are the Alumni, the Parents of the Students, the Parents of the Alumni, Friends and Neighbors, and Special Gifts. Also each year a different chairman is selected for each group and this ye.ar (6th annual fund) the chairmen are Anthony Harris Alumni; Mrs. Goodhue Crocker Friends and Neighbors; Mr. and :Mrs. James H. Righter - Parents of Students; and Mr . .and Mrs. John B. Oliver - Parents of Alumni.

Last :Year we had the largest number of donors we've had but the total of money wasn't as high as it was in 1959. Although with the money acquired we purchased many useful items. Some of these items were the controlled reading equipment, the furniture and other items for the senior room ; the ball boy, and numerous library books. The students appreciate this generosity very much .and the op-

sports, in which he became known as the father of American skiing.

Proctor House stands in memory of this stalwart, brilliant and dedicated man among men who gave generously of his energy and creative thought that the boys of Cardigan might be strengthened mentally, spiritually, and physically in their God-given environment oi the hills, mountains, lakes and streams which he loved.

The Proctor House is the home of the N. C. Wakelys. The house also provides two rooms for four boys. This year they .are Mike Bixler, Robin Borzillo, John Hart and Larry Reed. Speaking for all of us, we are very happy and proud of the Proctor House.

Seniors Prepare Every December ninth, the senior class of Cardigan Mountain boards a bus goingi to, Hanover, the S.S.A.T. Testing Center in our area. The tests are taken in the cafeteria of the Hanover Junior High School.

Other boys from the area around Hanover also come to take the test.

The S. S . A. T. helps a future school decide whether a boy is sufficiently qualified for the level of work which will be require.cl of him. The basic subjects covered are English ,md Mathematics. Previously boys at Cardigan have been visiting schools to which they would like to attend the following year. Special permission is given for the Seniors to visit these schools during a school week. At meals the boys discuss their chances, rate the possible schools, and discover who hopes to go where. portunity to work this equipment.

This year's letters again will be sent to the various grnups and we are most hopeful that this wonderful support will continue.

December, 1961

Chapel The new chapel will be in colonial style with red brick. There will be two pilasters in the front. Inside there will be two floors and a balcony. The nave will seat 180 and the balcony will seat 40. The pews will be divided into three aisles.

In the front will be seats for a 30 boy choir and ,a n organ. Beside the raised chancelors will be a pulpit and a lectern. The raised chancelry will provide for religious concerts.

The ground floor .at the west end will be used as a fallout shelter.

The rest of the rooms on the ground floor will be used for the more functional purposes such as the fine art movie rooms for slides, recording rooms ,and a dressing room for the choir.

At the end will be a seminar room with table .and chairs, bookcases, .a nd a record player.

The organ music will be piped all through the building .and from the steeple so it can be heard outside.

The chapel has been designed by the famous church architect, Arland Dirlane of Boston who has designed 176 contemporary churches.

The church will be nonsecterian.

CMS Trustees Meet On October 6th, 1961 the annual meeting of the board of trustees and Corporation was held.

The attending members arrived about three o'clock and held their meeting at the headmaster's house after the good me.al served by Mr. Clancy.

After the trustees had left, _Mr. Burbank was confident that this was one of the best meetings in years in respect to the cleanliness of the campus and dormitories and the manner in which the trus'tees were greeted and respected during their stay.

School Court · The school has recently separated the judicial branch from the legislative (Dormitories), with the organization of a school court. The court consists of Mr. Linn as faculty advisor, and seven rotating student council of which five are present for each session. The court has no special schedule but convenes whenever disciplinary action .is necess itated.

No More Snow The school has had a T. V. crew bi.;.ild five large television antennas over at Clancy Mountain.

Each antenna is set for a different channel. With the new antennas, reception should be clear of snow on channels 3, 5, 8, 2, 11, of which the last two are educational.

There will be a separate line going to each dorm, the infirmary and the headmasters house. There will be boosters on these lines to prevent loss of power. Eventually there will be T. V. in the classrooms for educational purpose:s.

Summer "Blaze" The Summer School "Blaze" arrived fresh off the press to remind m, that a successful Summer School with 97 boys in attendance had ended 19 August, 1961. Plans are being formulated for the 1962 Summer Session which will be from 1 July - 25 August.

This is the time to learn, and friendly advice is always available.

This year a new sp ort came to Cardigan - horse back riding. Mr. Cutting, the master in charge , started it off early this fall when a number of boys wished t o form a club. We went riding on fre e afternoons when the weather was fit.

We always had a fairly go od selection of horses and those who went riding agreed that it wa.s well worth the money.

We elected officers once we found there was a lasting interest.

These elected were Kirby Whyte, president and William Hess, secretary.

First Ti111e Cardigan finished its second undefe.ated .and untied football seas0n this fall.

We started our practice on September 18 by doing calisthenics and laps around the field. A few days later we were equipped for action. It wasn't long until we found it. We had work to do before our first game which was on October 11. Mr. Thompson and Mr. Yaggy, our coaches, worked us very hard, but it was worth it!

Shortly before our first game Fred Smith and Jay Robinson were elected co-captains of the team.

On Wednesday, October 11, we played F'r eshman team of the Stevens Junior High School in Clarem ont, New Hampshire. The Claremont team offered opposition for our op ening game. We won by a scCJre of 42-6. Dave Mann, Jay Robinson, and Fred Smith all helped to make the margin in the score. The victory was boosted by the brilliant gains by the team and the school spirit which \'.-as shown on the sidelines. October found u.s playing Towle High School in Newport, N. H. Smith . scored a touchdown in the third period and Robinson scored the after points. The final score was 8-6. October 21 saw the second string of the Proctor J.V. team at Cardigan. Our sec-

ond string won, 18-12. John Joy and Peter Crawford were the scoring players for Cardigan.

Vermont Academy lost to us on their homegrounds on the 25th. It was our first win on their field in tlie history of Cardigan. Due to scoring by Peter Weeks, Jay Robinson, Rip Uihlein, and Sandy Armstrong, we won 26-8.

On Wednesday, Nevember 1, we played Kimball Union Academy on our field. After our scoring on the opening kickoff we went on to victory, 46-22. On November 8, we clashed with previous:y undefeated New Hampton Schnol. We won, 14-6. Peter Weeks qnd John Joy each scored a touchdown.

We wrapped up a perfect season by defeating Proctor, 32-20. The backfield did a fine job to make the margin in the score.

Dave Mann grew famous this yc,ar for getting the team out of tight places. Several times after realizing that all of his receivers were covered he would run the ball.. This would usually happen after a loss in yardage or far down field. He did a fine job at quarterbacking.

While our opponents have only scored twelve touchdowns we have scored 37.

Green And White - fight

Remember "M" Day? On the 17th ·o f October, a group of the more "hearty" souls on campus clambered into buses and roared of for a day .a t Lafayette.

As we neared Franconia and the mountains came into view, spirits of many fell quickly. The mountains were all draped in glistening mantels of white. The first thing that ,a nyone just had to do was throw a snowball; and of course everyone did. As soon as groups were assembled and food was picked up, we set off for the summit via the Greenleaf trail. We had not gone very far before slippery ice began to make climbing a little more difficult; but with conquest in our eyes, we fought on ! By the time we reached the hut about three quarters of the way up, the spirit had died in many of us, (or at least the feelings in our feet had) so we ate lunch and rested for a while .

After this brief recuperation, the still more hale souls proceeded to go all the way and conquer the towering hoary giant. At the top the wind buffeted us around like so many paper bags and in places the snow was three feet deep.

Needless to s.ay, the sight of all that snow quickly dampened our spirits and we retreated back to the hut.

From the hut we picked our way down the "Bridle Path" which must have been just .a washed out gully, down to the highway before too long, climbed into the bus once more and headed home. No doubt everyone in the bus had a lot to say, but no -one had the energy left to say it.

I can safely say that nearly everyone enjoyed the climb includm g the poor boys whose feet temporarily froze up.

And There Was "Stinson" !

Tuesday, October 17, a group of lf'ss "hearty" souls ascended Mt. Stinson in Rumney. The group was divided into five lesser parties, e.ach headed by a master. Toward the summit, light snow was encountered. At the top there was a magnificent view of snow . covered Moosilauke, Lafayette and Washington and also numerous lakes such as Newfound and Winnipesaukee. An ample supply of ham spread and jam, cakes, -oranges and chocolate bars made a good lunch. All in all, the trip was a big success.

SOLOMAN'S

In the p.ast nine weeks another race besides football has been going 011.

The Green and White intramural competition teams have begun their long battle. The Green captain is Rip Uihlein whose t eam has won a total of six out of eight events through October and November. These events have included Archery, Riflery, Sailing, Tou~h F0otball, Soccer and Tennis. Peter Weeks, the White captain, and Rip Uihlein have both done an excellent job in team leadership. Coming events this winter are Basketball and of course Skiing. There has also been talk of team uniforms .

M1·. Lary and the .student intramural director, John Christy, have made plans for this in the near future.

Cardigan1s Curriculum This year, Cardigan's scholastic standards have been raised. To the able students in the eighth grade , advanced courses in French and Algebra are offered. They are taking the French I and Algebra I courses heretofore taken in the ninth grade . This will enable them to go ahead to French II and Algebra II next year should they return. This ha::; the advantage of having the student enter preparatory school with two advanced credits.

Bec.ause of the tension of international affairs, another special course has been added to the · curriculum. This is civil defense. It is a six week course taken by every boy in his science class. The "textbooks" are in pamphlets made out

by Mr. Cutting .a nd Mr. Hulbert.

These instruct us on the dangers of radioactive fallout, because fallout is our main concern here .at Cardigan. By the time the course is over, every boy will know exactly what to do in case of an air attack.

The school is also taking the_ precautionary measures neces sary concerning food, shelter and wafer.

Fall Dance On Saturday evening, November 11, fair damsels from Canaan, Leban on, and Hanover headed for the Cardigan Mt. School fall dance. By 8:00 ther e were about 35 boys and the .s ame numb er of girls assembled in the Hinman Hall auditorium which for four days the dance committee and Mrs . Baldwin had prepared and decorated.

Everyone seemed to b e enjoying themselves and by 9:15 we were ready for refreshments. Sandwiches and cold drinks were served to everyone and soon all were back on the floor using their second wind .

It was a common sight to see one of the faculty members waltzing up and down the floor.

At 10:30, all good-bys were said and the girls headed home. I am sure that it was considered a very enjoyable evening in everyone's mind.

Tontine No. 6 Ice Breakers There is a grave situation here at Cardigan! We just don't have enough people going swimming.

There are many excuses for this reluctance, some people say it is too cold and others s-ay, "What do you think I am, some kind of a nut or something?" The latter seems to be the favorite . What it all boils, or, freezes down to, is that enough people just don't understand the value of this experience.

Only two or three out of 130 have the sense to develop their endurance in this stoic manner.

Therefore the Cardigan Polar Club with advisor will meet at 6:30 a .m . Saturday in front of the flag pole. Souvenirs of ice will be presented to all comers.

This club has since had about three meetings with about four or five enthusiasts present each time.

The fixing up and improvement work that began on the shop last year, has now been completed. The shop now bo.asts new cement founcic:tions, level floors, hot air furnace, safe chimney flue, several new window sashes and a fully equipped arts and crafts area in the loft. The land around the outside has been leveled off and seeded.

The money for this work w.as donated in memory of the late Mr. Arthur Williams by his family . The shop has been christened in his memory.

About $3000 was spent on the building with new tools a.s an extra .

Mr. H arriman will b e in charge of the shop for the ensuing year.

The following is a short history of the shop.

In 1828 John Fales, Elijah Blaisdell and Moses Richardson built a mill at the corner on the outlet of Hart's Pond (Oanaan Street

Lake). It was 500, feet long and divided equally into five sections fo r $100. The timber was of clear pine sawed at Goose Pond and hauled to the site.

William and Moses Kelley put in a hat factory, Eliphalet Page a h;;:rness shop; John Fales a blacksmith shop and a gristmill and N,a thanial Barber, a cabinet, maker and a carpentry shop which filled the remaining space. From 1851 up until the time it burned on May 2d, 1883, felloes were manufactured.

-From The Canaan History (1910) In 1885 Ira Fifield built the present building for a shop where all ki.nds of jobs could b e done. He later abandoned it and building and water privileges passed into the hands of Mr. Welch who used it for making shingles and planing boards up until his death. Since that time the business has been owned by R. H. Haffenreffer. :Fr-o m The Canaan History CHUO).

Cardigan Glee Club

Robert Frost in his visits to the Dc,g Team Tavern in Middlebury, Vt., became acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Joy and their SJn Jon who is at present a senior at Cardigan.

Due to his concern for education and his interest in boys, Mr. Frost d onated ,a recent collection of his poems called "The Works Of Robert Frost."

The Glee Club of 10 members may not seem large but it gives off a tone which makes up for its size.

Our wonderful teacher, Mrs. Webb er, has helped us so much that I would say that without her the group would have been not even half as good as it is.

One of th e things that reaHy makes the gle e c-ub what it is are t he songs we sing .and the arrangements Mrs. Webber gives them.

Some Kingston Trio song3 and other folk songs mak ~ u;:i the highlights of our music . Some of these songs we have sung in the dining room Friday evenings. Also, we have sung a few times in Vespers. The up and coming issue is the Christmas Show at which we will sing.

Murder in Wax The newly formed Cardigan Dramatic Club under the excellent supervision of Mr. Ackley, presented an eerie performance of Murd er in Wax. It is the story told by an ex-reporter of the Valley News tc an unbelieving repJrter on the Chronicle Staff. As th e scene opens another reporter is on stage , he too is on the Valley News and wants a little extra money and publicity for himself and his paper.

He decides to spend a night in a wax museum in London. As soon as the curator showed this reporter Hewson around, he left, leaving him in the presence of several statues.

As Hewson is writing notes on the frightening atmosphere, one of the statues drops his knife -o r so he thought. Soon the statue of Dr. Bourdette starts moving and he steps down from his pedestal. Now Hewson was wondering but not for long because Dr. Bourdette has hypnotized him. Too bad for Hewson because Bourdette was really a day healer and a night killer.

Good bye Mr. Hewson. The play · comes to an end and of course ever~ one was howling and yelling for more.

Up Stage Sounds Of City Traffic Increase Volume Of Traffic Sounds Slowly Kill Audito·r ium Lights Hold Sounds Under First Of Narration These are the opening stage directions for the Dramatics Club's coming play, "Miracle in Brooklyn. ' vVritten by our director, Mr. Willian Ackely, it will b e performed late in January. The large ca.st is working enthusiastically at rehearsals. After the Fall success of "Murder In Wax," this coming performance is awaited with anticipation.

Clancy Mountain At our Clancy Mountain ski are,a three new metal poles have replaced old wooden ones on the hill and the b ottom has been cut way back and also widened. This should eliminate the long waiting lines that used to extend way up the hill. Bulldozers have· been in and and though it looks rather wet and muddy now, we ought to have a lot more smooth skiing this year.

A Corpse In A Coffin At 5:45 on November 1st, the sixth graders loaded into Mr. Cutting's car. We knew we were going to Mr. Linn's mansion.

About twenty minutes later we drove into his driveway in Dorchester, N. H. We jumped out and went over by Mr. Linn who was standing by the well. A flare was burning to give us some light.

Mr. Linn then told us that we were going to look for .a spirit. A Mr. McGill had an airplane crash.

His legs were mutilated.

We walked .down the road to a graveyard in back of the church.

We didn't go in the graveyard but we looked over the stone wall for the coffin. We didn't find it until we looked in an old barn.

Mr. Linn opened the barn door and said " If we really concentrate hard, the spirit might rap on the coffin."

Everyone concentrated ,a nd pretty soon there was an "Eaag." Then the lid opened and out came the spirit. Everyone took off. When we were back on the road, Mr. Linn asked where Bill Watkins was. A little later we heard a scream and the spirit was chasing Bill. Three

Cardigan Gets a Church

This is the familiar sound of the newest fad on campus called controlled "feeding.' ' Students are fed words with alarming speeds of up to 800 words per minute with a projector like machine equipped with a timing device. Of coure, nubody has yet been able to digest or even masticate so many words being hurled at them like machine gun bullets.

As with most other new devices for- teaching, there is work involved. In this case, it's over night assignments of the more difficult words that go Blip-Bliping across the screen the next day.

The purpose is to promote speedy rending so that the student will skim books .at an amazing pace by only bouncing on the all-important "I"s "the" s, and "and"s and so getting a very good misu~derstanding of what he is reading.

F·or 10 weeks this fall, a compulsory course has been given .and will be supplemented by .a five week's course starting in Februar y . Meanwhile those needing special help will be worked with individually to br ing them up with the others.

I think this experiment, unknowingly to some of us , has more than repaid it's cost by introducing us to far higher standards of reading enjoyment.

Money has been donated to Cardigan for the purpose of erecting a chapel. The chosen site is north of Brewster Hall and just ins ide the main gate. It's architecture will harmonize with the other buildings on the campus and will f eature a collonaded fr-ont. 238 persons will be seated in the building, 180 in the nave, 40 in the balcony, and 28 in the choir. Construction is due to start this spring.

boys went around the church and tackled the spirit Anyway we found out who the spirit was . It was only Mr. Brayman.
