New The~anguan:l Sailboats! ClubJuruor Can a school with a 20 year old fleet of sailboats that has been patched and mended many times over the years hope to be competitive in interscholastic sailing meets? Director of Athletics Jim Marrion convinced the Cardigan Trustees that old sailboats do NOT last forever and that the School's aging fleet was not enhancing its reputation on the water.

At their December meeting,the Board of Trustees authorized the purchase of a new fleet of eight F J's to replace boats acquired in the early 1970's.

They also gave the go-ahead to purchase a Boston Whaler with a new motor as an additional safety boat. With a fleet of sailboats and canoes plus a number of students engaged in windsurfing, a second safety boat is now a necessity.

Sailin g is a recreational activity during the Summer Session and also in the fall term, but in the Spring the Cardigan sailers are involved in a full schedule of in terscholastic meets. If all goes according to schedule, the 1990 team will have their brand new boats in time for their first competition.

Any amount raised in this year's Annual Fund campaign over the goal of $160,000 will be apolied toward the ourchase of the new fleet.

Laser Printer Donated A note in the Fall issu.e of the Chn;micl e asking if anyone could donate a laser printer to the School produced unexpectedly quick results. An alert alumnus, Robert Chartener '73, saw the item and took the trouble to investigate this with his employer - Goldman, Sachs & Co. Fortunately for Cardigan , the company was in the process of making some changes in their computer department, and was able to make a used Hewlett Packard Laser Jet Prinr,er available. It's already been delivered and when we have i t installed and connected with t he right software, the quality of printing in the Chronicle will be improved. Many thanks to both Robert and Goldman, Sachs.

HEADMASTER'S

Martin Luther King Day A Time to Discuss Prejudice

COLUMN The Cougar Express With a marvelous Parents' Weekend now just a pleasant memory, my thoughts move to future opportunities to· make new friends. As you may know, right now there are 1 75 boys from 30 states and 11 countries in residence at Cardigan. The School's fine reputation continues to spread both nationany and internationally. 0 ur students have a unique opportunity to experience global society right here on campus!

The Admissions team of Jeff Hicks, Tom Schenck and Joe Collins work tirelessly attracting .families to Cardigan. Over the next few weeks, Jeff and his colleagues will be on the road promoting both the Winter School and our Summer Session. In addition, Janet and I will be travelling to attend gatherings of Cardigan alumni, parents and prospective students in nine areas across the country from New York to California.

We have already enjoyed the hospitality and generosity of the Esdailes who hosted the preChristmas gathering at the Harvard Club in Boston.

Likewise, we thank the Colkets for starting the 1990's in grand fashion with a wonderful reception at their home outside Philadelphia in late January.

The recommendations of alumni, past and present parents, grandparents and friends continue to be our best advertising and sources of new students. If you know a family whose son would benefit from the Cardigan experience, please contact the School or bring them to one of our area gatherings. The schedule · of locations and dates is printed in this issue of the Chronicle.

Monday, January 15th was a widely-observed holiday in memory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. At Cardigan, the academic day was devoted to special programs with time to think about prejudice of an sorts.

The "day" actuany began on Sunday night with films dealing with prejudice and commitment and was concluded before lunch Monday with remarks by Chaplain Harry Mahoney.

After breakfast on Monday the whole school gathered in the Humann Theatre. Mr: Neil Brier introduced the day by saying, "Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was not only a man with a noble dream, but he was also a leader willing to sacrifice and die for that dream - for a country and a world in which people are seen as individuals, not as members of a race or religion. He stood up for an of us, because he stood up against hate and violence. What better way can we honor his memory than by stopping to take an honest look at ourselves?"

Following the film "Martin Luther King: Amazing Grace" and a talk by keynote speaker, Mr. Deneal Amos, volunteers from the faculty led sman group discussions. Each group read a case study on topics of prejudice, hate, stereotypes, etc. and was asked to consider the question: "What prejudices do I have about people who look or act differently from me?" As each member of the group was asked

honestly to confront whatever kind of prejudice he was carrying in his heart, group dynamics worked to replace prejudice with understanding and hatred and distrust with a feeling of brotherhood.

Reactions to this special program were favorable from both faculty and students, an.ct the hope was expressed that, by this effort, a sman step had been taken a way from prejudice in the direction of better understanding our neighbors.

Clubs Provide Relief from Winter Weather During these days of freezing weather and little sunlight, Cardigan students look forward to Thursday afternoons.

Faculty members are providing a wider variety of Thursday clubs than in the Fall, and the special winter schedule gives students a chance to participate in two activities instead of one.

Some of the new clubs involve community service. For example, Director of Placement Tom Schenck has started a Homelessness Awareness Club.

Students meet to discuss the problems of homeless people, and they watch newsreels and examine case studies of the issue.

"We discussed all the things we take for granted," said Mr. Schenck, "such as getting up and taking a hot shower, eating a good breakfast, and so on."

Also new in the community service arena is the Be Kind to Animals Club, led by the Headmaster's secretary Lorraine Hennessy. Students work at the Humane Society in Plainfield, taking care of the cats and dogs.

So far they have done everything from grooming to cage-cleaning.

Life Skills teacher Mr. Mars worked with Canaan Elementary School to form a Big Brother Club. Seven elementary students in need of an older friend have been paired up with a Cardigan "big brother." Every week Mr. Mars gets the whole group together for activities such as playing board games or going on field trips.

History teacher David Shelton has teamed up with three students to help the elderly.

They are working with the director of the Senior Citizens' Center in Canaan, who lets them know of older people in need.

The students visit the homes of these senior citizens and help with chores such as stacking wood for the long New Hampshire winters.

The Big Brother-Little Brother Club is all smiles after an afternoon in the sun. Cardigan students meet with their little brothers from Canaan Elementary School once a week for activities.

In addition to the new community service groups, there are also a few more exotic arrivals on the club scene.

Several students who were curious about Eastern culture have opted to take advantage of the brand new Tai Chi Chuan Club headed by Life Skills teacher Mary Amos. Ninth-grader .Gordon Reese described the new activity enthusiastically: "It's something that helps your train of thought and your coordination. It will help my concentration in my classe!::l, 11 Gordon said.

Gordon added that Tai Chi Chuan can be used for self defense, but the club is studying the slower, more meditative version of the sport.

There is a new arrival on the musical scene as well. English teacher · William Hart has formed a blues band, a group which so far boasts several harmonicas, a bass, and a guitar. Tentative plans have been made for a "jam session" with the alreadyestablished brass band.

Andy Martinez, Tyson Greenwood and Mike Kramer match wits at the Board <;ames Club.

Mr. Mark Werden and Ramon Ramos jazz it up during Brass Band practice.

Students who are good with their hands have joined Mr. Morse in the construction of "The Ark," a 23 -foo t wooden pontoon boat that will make i ts maiden voya ge some t ime this spring. ~ade of pressure-treated plywood, the boat will have a ten-foot wide deck and a small outboard motor.

The boat has turned into an all-hands effort, as the project has even extended .into the classroom. Math lab students John Torgerson and Fred Dorrance have made calculations to determine that the . vessel will float, but Fred is not sure he wants to put his calculations to the test!

Varsity Hockey Opens Season on Right Foot The varsity hockey team began the season with a strong second-place showing against tough com petition at the Middlesex Youth Hockey Tournament in Concord, Massachusetts.

The tournament, which tQok place December 1-3, included six teams. Cardigan's effort was all the more impressive since four of the six teams play all year round, while the Cougars had only had seven practices.

The squad skated to a 3-1 victory over the Springfield Junior Olympics to begin the tournament. Erik Oberg was selected team MVP, while goalie Jack Diemar held the opposition scoreless for one-and-a-half periods.

Saturday, the Cougars triumphed over t he Boston Junior Terriers 9-3, with Greg Dumont as team MVP. Later in the day, the team trounced the Fessenden School by the lopsided margin of 14-3, aided by the skillful play of Eric Nick ulas.

Unfortunately, Cardigan fell short in the finals against Springfield. The team was unable to duplicate its first-night victory and lost 5-2 despite fine play by team MVP Deron Quint.

"I think we were alittle worn down by the time of the championship game," said Coach Jim Burnett. "It was a good start for the season, however."

Mr. Burnett said he wishes to express his thanks to all the Concord-area Cardigan parents who hosted the players during the weekend.

New Faculty Attend Conference Three of Cardigan's new faculty members recently benefited from the school's commitmen t to professional development. CMS sent history teachers Stewart Richmond and Tom Sutro and French teacher David Goodrich to a new teacher conference last October· at the Stone House Club in Little Compton, Rhode Island.

The three-day program included workshops on such topics as classroom management and discipline, adolescence, and different styles of learning and teaching.

Mr. Goodrich found one of the greatest benefits of attending the conference was the contacts he made with other teachers.

"I found myself among people in situations identical to mine.

We shared problems, com plaints, ideas and solutions," he said.

"It was great to share experiences with other young teachers and to hear the ad vice from experts," noted Mr. Richmond.

Mr. Sutro attended a "teacher-friend" workshop about the issue of when to be a teacher and when to be a friend. "It's a fine line," he said, "and you have to know when to be one or the other."

Phonathon Callers Omitted The names of three current parents who served as volunteer callers at the October phonathon .for the Annual Fund were omitted from the list published in the last issue. Aoologies for the omission and many thanks for their wonderful service to: Ken Alves, Pete Simons - who served two nights - and Clark Taylor.

"Portsmouth Hen'tage " - an etching by Chnstopher Hzi/ Morse

Morse Receives Print Award For the second year in a row CMS arts instructor Christopher Morse has received the "Yankee Print A ward" in the New Hampshire Muse contest sponsored by the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen. The artist earned $250 for his work, which was on display at the Manchester Institute of Arts and Sciences from October 21-December 2.

His prize-winning entry for this year, which will be reproduced in the February issue of Yankee magazine, depicts a scene from the harbor in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The etching is entitled "Porr.,smouth Heritage" and gives the viewer a feeling for the harbor's rich history. In the foreground is a present-day tugboat appropriately named "The Heritage," while a three-masted schooner can be seen in the rear. "The etching lets you sense the passage of time," said Chris of his work.

Chris and his wife Denise (also an art instructor at Cardigan) have been producing limited · edition prints depicting the life and history of New Hampshire for several years.

After founding The Ocul us Press in 1987, they have produced a steady stream of work for clients ranging from Dartmouth College to CMS itself.

Chris and Denise create their etchings by drawing an image onto a zinc plate covered with an acid-resistant coating.

The plate is immersed in acid, which creates grooves in the zinc wherever the coating has been etched away. The plate can then be inked and the etchings printed one at a time. This process has to be repeated for each color used in the e t ching.

Sixth grader John D 'Entremont enjoyed watching the etching process during art class. "Mr. Morse is a great artist. He's terrific!" John said.

Development/ Alumni Office Rates an Assistant Tom Avril, who joined the Cardigan faculty in October, is tutoring in the Math Lab program and teaching one math course.

Because of his experience writing for the Dartmouth Alumni Magazine, he is working in the Development & Alumni · Office every afternoon. He researches and writes articles for the Chronicle, works on alumni mailings, designed and created the Annual Fund ooster: in the office and helps with absolutely anything and everything that needs to be done.

PROFILE OF AN ALUMNUS

Emmons Cobb Shows Computer Ingenuity Emmons W. Cobb Once became aware of a need in the computer industry, he decided to do something about it. A 1960 graduate of Cardigan, Cobb began looking into starting a · diskette duplicating service while working at Houghton Mifflin's Educational Software Division in Hanover.

"We had a terrible time finding anyone to do quality diskette duplication," he remembers.

One thing led to another, and Cobb broke into the field himself. In October 1988 he formed Media Duplication and Assembly, using the expertise he gained at Houghton Mifflin.

After the Houghton Mifflin division closed down in the summer of 1989, Cobb proceeded full steam ahead with his new idea and began operating the new company out of his own home. ·He can make up to 10,000 highquality copies of the customer's master, and he also provides shipping and distribution services if necessary.

Software companies have found his services invaluable, as many of them do not have the facilities or the time to produce their own copies. In fact, his former employer Houghton Mifflin is now one of his customers.

Cobb's enterprise is a unique one in the New HampshireVermont area. His is the only facility which can handle software for IBM, Commodore, Atari, Apple II and Macintosh systems. Cobb's one competitor in the region has only IBM equipment.

Cobb has fond memories of his days at CMS. "It's a great place. I'm sorry I don'~ get back to visit more often," he said.

Tower to Head Planned Giving Program

One Way to Help Cardigan -A Bequest

John L. Tower, who has served as Chairman of the Development Committee of the Board of Trustees for the past twenty years, will be directing his efforts toward promoting Cardigan's Planned Giving Program. Several years ago the School established a Pooled Income Fund as a vehicle for gifts which provide a lifetime income for the donor with the School as the residual beneficiary. John will be working to interest donors in this fund as well as in other methods of deferred giving such as bequests and life insurance.

He will also be available to discuss gifts of real estate, tangible personal property, stock in closely-held companies, limited partnership interests, etc.

For some people, planned giving may be more beneficial than a cash gift and have attractive tax and .e state planning features. Unitrusts, lead unitrusts, gift annuities and deferred gift annuities can all be used for this purpose. Working with an estate planning consultant, John will be able to help design programs to fit individual circumstances.

Tower's 20 years of experience in development work and his long association with Cardigan as a Trustee will serve him well as he undertakes this new assignment for the School.

Alumni and parents sometimes express the wish they could help Cardigan in a more substantial way than their Annual Fund gift . One way to do ·this is by naming the School in your Will.

It's not necessary to rewrite the document - an additional -bequest can be added with a simple codicil.

Bequests may take several forms: a general bequest is fo.r a designa~ed amount; a specific bequest identifies a particular piece of property or other asset; a residuary bequest gives what is left after other bequests have been fulfilled; a contingent bequest passes property only if another benificiary is not living.

Use of a testimentary ~ provides for the establishment of a trust at the time the Will is probated.

There can also be substantial tax consequences of naming the School in your Will.

The important thing is that, using a bequest, you can be sure of doing something significant for Cardigan.

If you would like further information or suggested wording for a codicil, call or write the Development Office · at · the School.
