The Chipmunk, as you all know, is living happily with Carrot Top. But it got a little sick during the night and Carrot Top got mad and threw his Chipmunk against the wall. It survived.

This other boy, whom you all know, is not only very fond of cereal, but he also sleeps without covers at night.

HAYWARD HALL HEWS (CONT 1 D)- , ·,' ~/hen it goes down to 55 degrees he says that he isn 1 t cold. The reason is that he sleeps with his clothes on.

Hayward seems to be very quiet because sorre of our inhabitants have gone on a trip. Two boys got a two hour work detail for being out of bed after lights out. We had a little tro~ble when the toilet flooded the bathroom.

Needless to say we all had a great time in Hayward this summer.

- Ben McKinney WORK DETAIL CLEANS UP Mr. Rouillard allowed a 'team of anti po 11 uters the pdvi 1ege of picking up litter on the Canaan streets 1ast week. While working on this civic project, the group discovered and picked up nearly a half truck-load of rubbish, which was really mostly beer cans. While on the excursion down the street Tim 0 1 Brien picked up a full bottle of Bud; however, the whole crew had. to return to Cardigan sober.

The following participants received the congratulations of the authorities: J. Church, T. 0 1 Brien, E. Gervais, R. Perfect, R. Heyniger, M. Sane, P. Perry, D. Cantlin, and T. Howse.

If you fly well you can fly each of these.

HI NtAAN NEWS In Hinman the boys have been rai r 1y quiet, with only a few exceptions. (I always say, 11 Boys will be boysl 11 ) Things have been quiet since dorm restrictions were imposed.

Three boys got below the six level in their inspections and were sentenced to an hour during their free afternoon.

The rooms were cleaned carefully at that ti me.

That's all the news from Hinman Hall.

One Friday, July 31, twenty-three boys and girls were taken out to dinner

by Mr. Jenness and Mr. Dionne. We ate at a place cal led Lander 1 s.

After dinner, Mr. Jenness gave us a choice of going out to the movies or going back to camp to study. Everybody said that they wanted to go to the movies except for Brillo; he wanted to know about study hall.

After dinner we had some time before the movie started so we decided to go shopping.

At about 6:45 they started the movie.

We saw The Out of Towners. Everybody

TENNIS MO.TCH On Wednesday, August 5, we were host to camp Conniston in Tennis. It was a very good day for the Cardigan Cougars.

They were easily able to slip by. I think. this tirre the campers were all out to show who was the best.

In the senior division singles Doonan lost 8-3, Watson won 8-4, and Hatcher won 8-6. In the senior doubles which unfortunate 1y could not be completed Sarnoff and Watson were winning 4-2· and Hatcher and Watkins were losing 7-5 when the camp had to return home.

J. Gillette, E. Puyana; T. Church, K. Apfelbaum, H. Wentzler, B. Smock and B. Buttriss. The adults were Dave Hodgdon ~nd Max Abecassis. _During this five-day canoe trip everybody had a great time (I think).

Max and Dave capsized a canoe and Dave got a bump on his knee and Max didn 1 t know whether to yell for help or die right there. Cardigan canoe history was made Thursday afternoon time when Cardigans eight boys went down some pretty difficult fast water (rapids).

These eight boys were the only boys in Cardigan history to go down this part of the river. These cancers covered almost 45 miles paddling in fast water and in calm water.

When the time for fun came Max was all for it. He made a song up (ask him some time). The fishing was pretty good with little fish. T. Church caught three fish with J. Gillette 1 s fishing rod and Dave caught a nice size rainbow fish. Watches were rare on the trip and for two days nobody knew what time it was until R. Perfect got the time from a passing stranger. Everybody had a good time. Cardigans canoe trip was successful and I hope there will be more 1i ke this.

- Thanny Church

In the junior singles McRoberts took a hard earned 12-10 loss. Both Perkins and Lipscomb and Schwartz were winning 4-2 before having to take a rain check.

In all, every irember turned out a very good performance whether they lost or not and they were rewarded. At the end cokes were served to all.

VICTORY

On July 28, 1970, Cardigan played Camp Conniston in softball. The final score was 12 to 7 with the mighty green and white on top. B. Bush hit a home run with the bases loaded, more than enough to offset Conniston•s solo homerun. After the third inning we were ahead and we stayed ahead.

Everyone played well and it was a good gan:e • ~

THE FISHING TRIP On Monday, August 10, the students all enjoyed a fine deep-sea fishing trip.

At 9:00 we were told to hurry back to our dorms and dress for a day of fishing.

After travelling for about two and a half hours, we finally reached our destinationg Rye Harbor. We ate a lunch consisting of bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwiches, Coke, and rolls and boarded the boats, the names of which were Miss Rye Harbor, The Traveller, and The SeaWolf.

- - We were soon outtryingour luck, busily pulling in the fish, except for those who were too busy leaning over the side. Unfortunately, the fishing was not quite as good as it could have been, but al 1 in al 1 we had a great tirre.

Upon arrival back in port, we ate dinner at the 11Rye Harbor Restaurant 11 • We were ready to head back to Cardigan by 7:00. We arrived home at 9~45, tired and srr.elly. I'm sure most all enjoyed the change.

The victors were: Tim O•Brien, Don MacDonnell, Dave Haywood, Walter Thomas, Sandy McClellan, Mathew Webb, Jon . Elmblad, and David Ball.
