RICHARD J. CLANCY RETIRES AFTER THIRTY-ONE YEARS AT C.M.S. The closing of Cardigan's thirty-first year will bring an end to a great part of the first period of the school's history. Richard J. Clancy, chef-steward of Cardigan Mountain School since opening day, will retire in June. With Clancy's parting, the school will have lost not only the last remaining member of its original staff, but a good friend who has helped to shape the small family school founded on Canaan Street in 1945 into the Cardigan Mountain School of today. In a very real sense, Clancy's story is the history of Cardigan Mountain School itself. But Clancy's association with Canaan and the men who made Cardigan goes back even farther. Born in Woonsocket, Rhode Island in 1915, Clancy first came to the area during the 1930's to supervise the construction of government work camps. In the late 'thirties and early 'fo rties, he held a position as chef in Windsor, Ve.rmont, where he met and married Nellie Barton. It was during this period of time that he and William R. Brewster, co-founder of Cardigan School (as it was then called) met. When the war ended, Brewster contacted Clancy about coming to work at the new school, then in the planning stages. Fresh from the Army, with a wife and new-born daughter, Clancy accepted the offer. In the words of Robert C. Hopkins, author of The History of Cardigan Mountain School -1945-1960, " right from the beginning, [Clancy] has been an influence for good. Among Brewster's many contributions none has worn better than Clancy."' During his tenure at C.M.S., Clancy has always held the position of chef-steward. In the first years on the street, though, Clancy's role extended much farther than his title suggests. In addition to preparing the meals for the faculty and students, he raised and butchered his own livestock to feed the school. "On October 25, Clancy butchered a pig in preparation for the Thanksgiving dinner. The School had six pigs." Sam Adams (from The Cardigan Chronicle, Oct. 1950) Students helped with the chores, including feeding and caring for the animals and helping in the kitchen. Then, as now, kitchen jobs were in great demand by the students because of the welcome atmosphere there. One of the current seniors was asked why he liked to work in the kitchen. He replied, "It's like a family in there." One of the most often told stories at Cardigan concerns a young boy from Massachusetts who came to Cardigan very much a loner in the fall of 1945. Clancy introduced the boy to working in the kitchen, and by the end of his year at Cardigan, he was capable of running the kitchen himself (he actually did so one day when Clancy was sick). Lee Bailey found a family in the kitchen and became a part of it, thanks to Clancy's interest in him and in all the boys. Clancy was more than one of the staff; he was like a brother; "a wiser older friend, a confidant."2 The boy, now criminal lawyer F. Lee Bailey, remembers this year as one of his happiest, and he credits Clancy with getting him interested in law as the result of a trip they took to Windsor Prison.
Clancy's experience in the work camps of the Depression stood him well when it came to meeting and dealing with some of the daily problems in the old Lodge on Canaan Street. The school's first water system consisted of an artesian well which, through the years, came to supply water to some of the private homes on the street. Clancy serviced and maintained this and the subsequent pump system, used until the move up to the new campus on the hill. One summer, Clancy attacked the outside of the lodge and other buildings with detergent !O clean up the paint job, later helping to repaint the buildings himself. In the late 'forties and early 'fifties, skiing was already . a popular winter sport at Cardigan and the school had by then purchased the slopes on the Pinnacle and behind Clancy's house . Clancy was one of the people who helped to build the school's first ski-tow, using a series of pulleys attached to the rear wheel of a Model 'A' Ford, which had been built into a log frame. This system was used on the Pinnacle for years and was finally moved over to Clancy Mountain, as it became known. Although the Model 'A' is long gone, parts of the early arrangement are still to be found in the rope-tow the school uses on the intermediate slope. Clancy has been a good friend to the students, ready to give advice, help with work, tell a good story, or just be a "listener. His kitchen has been a welcome place. Clancy's beliefwas that the school's kitchen should be like the kitchen at home -the place where the boys would come if they needed any.thing from a band-aid for a cut to someone to talk to. This openness has comforted many students over the years, especially those boys who were feeling the loneliness of being a~ay from home for the first time. In the kitchen, they could set aside (Continued on next page)
(Continued from previous page)
their troubles for a time a~d JOtn in the activity . Many of Cardigan ' s foreign students have gravitated towards the kitchen to receive the welcome that Clancy and Nellie extended to these boys who were so far from their homes. One o f the first places that many visiting alumni head for is the kitchen, to recapture some of their best-kept memories of Cardigan. Clancy's name appears frequently in the issues of the old Cardigan Chronicle, whic~ this newsletter replaced eight years ago . He has been one of the central figures in the lives of the boys who came to C.M.S. As Lee Bailey wrote in his article which appeared in the first issue of the Clarion , " [Clancy] is capable of many things besides cooking . . ." 3 Clancy served as 'doctor-in-residence' many times during · the first years . Besides being a first class cook, he was also a skilled "fixer" of everything from machinery to bicycles . Perhaps his favorite pastime , however, was fishing . Clancy led the Fishing Club at school actively, until 1960. He and the boys made regular expeditions to the most remote and best stocked corners of Canaan Street Lake . He knew all the best spots. One of the early students who was a member of the Fishing Club was " Buster" Blumerth, who still comes back to fish with Clancy from time to time .
after teaching art at° several Summer Sessions. Richard also helped to coach the Alpine Ski team, using slopes that he learned to ski on and that his father helped to construct over twenty-five years ago . Clancy raised his family at Cardigan and in its tradition-it is home to them . In the thirty-one years of the school's existence, Clancy has been part of every step of its growth and progress. His role in the last few years has been more supervisory in nature, but he has retained his close contact with the students. His first-hand knowledge of Cardigan ' s hi-story affords him a perspective that no one else can share . In honor of Richard and Nellie Clancy's devotion and long service to Cardigan Mountain School, the Board of Trustees has voted to establish a scholarship fund in their nafnes . Contributions to the Richard I and Nellie 8. Clancy Endowed Scholarship Fund may be sent in care of the school. This year's total amount will be announced at the testimonial dinner for Clancy on June 4th . 'Hopkins, Robert C. The History of Cardigan Mountain School 19451960, page 34 'Whitten, Les: F.

ANNUAL FUND EXCEEDS $70,000 GOAL!
A record catch for Clancy' s Fi shing Club in the 1950' s.
The greatest change in th e dining hall o ccurred when Hayward dormitory was added and the dining hall lengthened to its present size in the early 1960' s. This enabled needed storage and better dish washing facilities to be installed to better serve the needs of the rapidly growing school. The staff has remained pretty much the same through the years. Until her death early last year, Nellie Clancy worked alongside her husband every day, aided by Rachel Hill, Brown, Leona Fiske , and John Perr in. Bread, pies , and other pastry were for many years, baked on the premises. From time to time, The Chronicle included menus for special events. It is plain from this testimony that Clancy' s kitchen has fed the students of Cardigan Mountain School in fine style! One of the Clancy family' s most important contributions to campus life has been the family itself. Theresa Clancy , now married and living in Massachusetts, was only a few months old when Clancy came t.o work at Cardigan . Now, she is the mother of four children; one of whom , Steve Purcell, attended the 1976 Summer Session; the third generation of Clancys on campus. Michael Clancy, C.M.S . '65, also married, is with the U.S. Navy on the island of Guam. The younger son, Richard, C.M.S. '67 , joined the faculty as art teacher last September,
The 1976-1977 Annual Giving Fund met its goal of $70,000 in mid-February and has currently passed the $72,500 mark , including pledges. Contributions have been excellent this year and it is extremely gratifying to have met the goal with over three and one-half months remaining until the fund closes on June 30 . All signs indicate that this will be one of the greatest fund years yet for Cardigan Mountain School. Funds received in excess of the stated goal are used to purchase items on the school "shopping list. " The list includes : an additional 15-passenger van for transporting students to athletic and other special events ; new hymnals fort he chapel; furniture for the Banks House common room; additional folding chairs for the auditorium and dining hall; reference books for the dormitory common rooms ; and new classroom furniture to replace well-worn desks and chairs. We are proud of the support shown the school through contributions to the Annual Fund and we hope for continued support in the coming months so that these purchases may be made possible. ·

PARENTS' WEEKEND FEBRUARY 4-6
THE STELLA WRESTLING ROOM
This year's Parents' Weekend was a great success, with over 225 parents and friends of Cardigan students attending the three day program. By Friday evening, over 100 guests had arrived. After a fine steak dinner by Clancy, a special gymnastics program was held in the Kenerson Athletic Center, using Cardigan's new facilities for the first time. Gymnasts from Boston State College and Reading High School made up the program, demonstrating the n:,any possible uses of our new equipment. Saturday's schedule of events included a full day of classes, to which parents were invit~d. Parent-teacher conferences, the main reason for the weekend, were held throughout. Cardigan either won or tied all of its athletic meets on Friday and Saturday, affording the visitors with a good opportunity to see all the teams in ac:;tion against tough competition . Special events of the weekend included the presentation of 'Sherlock Holmes and "The Second Stain," ' by the Drama Club, a set of four folk songs by the C-Notes, a concert of popular music by the Glee Club, a Father-Son basketball game in the gym, and a Parents' Gathering in the Social Center. The festivities concluded with a coffee hour following early Sunday morning chapel, after which guests and students took their leave for the three day Long Weekend, which extended to Wednesday evening. Although the dedication of the Kenerson Athletic Center had originally been set for this weekend, delays in materials and construction made this impossible. The official dedication has been rescheduled for September 23rd, 1977.
In honor of his generous gifts and continued interest in promoting a wrestling program at Cardigan Mountain School, the Kenerson Athletic Center's new wrestling facilities will be dedicated t.o Mr. Frank Stella, father of Paul Stella, Cardigan
1966. Mr. Stella donated the mats and wrestling equipment to the school several years ago in anticipation of the creation of the school's first wrestling team. This winter, his hopes ·were realized. Coached by Mr. Bruce Barrett, a member of the Athletic Department at Mascoma High School and a resident dormitory master in French Hall, the team, consisting of three seniors,fought hard and well in their first match agairtst Holderness on March 2nd . The·y are looking forward ·to a full season of matches next winter.

Testimonial Dinner in Honor of Richard J. Clancy in the Hayward Dining Hall
Just as students returning to school in September look forward to Mountain Day and the Sandwich Fair, as soon as the ski season starts, they begin their wait for Ski Holiday . Valentine's Day, February 14th, was Ski Holiday this year. Students and faculty took the day off from classes and boarded buses bound for Loon Mountain Ski Area . Despite the warm weekend just past, conditions were good, with a shallow layer of powder over the well-packed and solid base. The students spent a full day on the slopes, returning for dinner that night. The senior class had spent their ski holiday there a few days before and were glad for the chance to return . . Thursday afternoon, March 3rd, turned out to be an unannounced break from instruction at the Pinnacle. The re creational skiers boarded the school bus slightly earlier than usual, expecting to be dropped off at the Pinnacle for their regular afternoon activity . Instead, the bus kept on goirig until it reached Whaleback Ski Area in nearby Grantham, New Hampshire. The boys were surprised, but there were no complaints heard. Wednesday, March 9th, was another ski holiday . Classes were shortened and two buses took the skiers to Waterville Valley to take advantage of what were supposed to be the finest spring ski conditions in many years . Warm day? and cold nights had produced a snow which is much more granular in texture than winter snow, and much more fun to ski on. Throughout the season, trips to different ski areas around New Hampshire are planned to give the boys an opportunity to learn to ski under different conditions and on a variety of terrains . The trips are usually scheduled for Wednesdays or Sundays. Waterville Valley, King Ridge, Tenney Mountain, and Ragged Mountain were some of the areas visited this winter.
HUMANITIES COMMITTEE WINTER PROGRAMS The Humanities Committee Evening Program Series continued this winter with four presentations appealing to a wide range of tastes . Two historical films by David Wolper Productions offered the background behind America's involvement in the Second World War and the American Revolution. The first film, "Day of Infamy," was shown January 14th. The documentary presented the events and reasons behind the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, which launched the United States into an active role in World War 11. The print was bought for the showing and is now part of our permanent library. March 4th's film was entitled "The World Turned Upside Down." A historical and sociological look at the Battle of· Yorktown, the film focused on this last engagement between British and American forces in the War for Independence which led to the British surrender in 1781 . The title refers to a song the British sang when they learned of the surrender. The school was introduced to the subject of sleep research on February 18th through a talk by Dr. H. Peter Hauri of the Dartmouth-Mary Hitchcock Hospital Sleep Research Laboratory . Dr. Hauri spoke about the lesser known aspects of sleep, including dreams, mental health (as it relates to sleep), and the need for sleep as a period of physical and psychological repair. Also described in this interesting and informative lecture were the levels and cycles of the sleep process. The Canaan Players, a local amateur theatre group, came to campus on January 29th with their production of Neil Simon's award winning comedy, "The Odd Couple." Due to its popularity in Canaan two weeks before, the Players presented the f i rst half of the play to a large audience composed of faculty and students who either missed the show or wanted to see it again . The cast was composed of six C.M.S. faculty members, showing a different aspect of their personalities on stage that night.

C.M.S. WINS FIRST BASKETBALL GAME, 24-22 History was made at Cardigan on March 11, when the school's first basketball team defeated Mascoma High School by a score of24-22 in the last minuteofthe game. The team had been working all season, but their actual practice time on the court was limited to about a week, following the completion of the gymnasium. The team played a good game and shows great promise for its first full season next year.

ONCE OVER LIGHTLY by Carol Shelton Spring cannot be far away when we begin to see class trips move off campus to points south. The ninth grade journeyed to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts for a day in February and the eighth grade spent the first Thursday in March on t he grounds of Sturbridge Village in Massachusetts . Both t rips were sponsored by the CMS history department. King Tut has even hit Cardigan, in addition to be ing the talk of the art and media world this season . Mr. Gallie n's sixth grade room blossomed out with cl bulletin board and walls f ull of pictures, clippings and maps and could easily be called The Ancient Egypt Resource Room for a period of time . Whe n Mr. Gallien returned from his visit to Boston's Museum w ith the ninth grade, he added a pamphlet on mummywrappingwhich capped the entire collection. · We seldom recognize the effort that goes into each boy's birthday at Cardigan. In addition to a special cake at the tab le in the dining room, every student with the birthday must also sit through a small amount of very uncertain pra ise from o ur resident poet-laureate, Mr. Finkbeiner. On March 4, we were able to turn the tables on our music master with some lines in honor of his own birthday. At lunch, he was draped with cloth of gold and crowned with olive leaves (olives, anyway) and lauded with appropriate paraphrases of Shakespeare by members of Mr, Fahrner's senior English class . It's hard to be li eve that Mr. Fi nkbeiner, that Roble Noman , laughed at all this effort. · The TV show "Roots" played to a capacity aud ience fo r a period of two weeks in the Resource Ce_n ter. After n ightly video-taping, the series was shown during the one-hou r co nference periods. Over fifty students jammed the smal l viewing area every day. Many requests are on file to reshow the se ri es; the tape certainly makes a valuable addition to our ho ld in gs for years to come.
WINTER SPORTS ALPINE AND NORDIC SKIING
HOCKEY
By Marc Friedman, Jeroen Kerrebijn, and Charles Morgan, class of '77
by Dean Antonucci and Rick Brickell, Class of '77
Alpine's A and B teams raced in eleven meets this season, both home and away. Their record is good, with 4 wins and 3 losses in dual competitions, and several second places in their four other meets. From the beginning of their season, their spirit and drive has been excellent. Conditions have been quite good this season and the boys got off to an early start in developing their skills and interscholastic standing. Captains Bob Sardelli and ·skip Willauer proved to be fine racers throughout the season, with valuable performances from Sumner Woolworth and Dan Nixon also. The Alpine team held an invitational meet with Eaglebrook and Holderness over Parents' Weekend and finished second overall. At the Vermont Academy Junior Prep-School race later in the season, they placed third in slalom and first in giant slalom for a third place in the meet. The team clinched another third out of seven competing schools at the New HamptonBrewster Invitational Giant Slalom Meet. For the team members, the season was a complete success, thanks to the support and expert training given them by Coaches Sachs and Clancy. Despite a rash of injuries in the early part of the season, the Nordic Jumping team has had an excellent year. Considering that most of the team had never jumped before this winter, their 5 win and 2 loss record speaks well of their determination and fine teamwork. Coach Jay Rand, a member of the U .S. Olympic Jumping team kept himself in training by competing in several regional jumping meets this winter and placed first in the Masters' International Invitational Meet held in his home town of Lake Placid, New York. The first weekend of March, he took the team to Lake Placid to jump against one of the local teams. With little experience on a forty meter jump, the team did extremely well. Tad Linn, team captain, did an especially fine job this season, as did Chris Aldrich, Jeroen Kerrebijn, John Emery, and Michael Shanley.
! ~ --:: -. The Cross-Country team began their practices the week before Christmas Vacation, so when school reopened in January, they were ready for competition. Although the season was not what they had hoped for, with a2 and 5 record, the team learned a great deal about cross-country racing from their coach, Mr. Heath. Their biggest race of the season was a dual competition against Vermont Academy and Holderness, in which they placed second. The boys were handicapped in their away meets by unfamiliar terrain, but consistently raced their hardest. Their spirit and teamwork was good all season and, in this respect, they had a very good year.
The Varsity Hockey team started their training early this season with some practices and preseason matches in the Boston Area. Coach Peck drove the boys down to Boston in the early part of the Christmas Vacation to give them a taste of competition before their crowded schedule began. Soon after school resumed in January, the season was in progress and it has been a good one, with 12 wins, 6 losses, and 2 ties. Many of the teams the Varsity squad faced this winter were favored to win, but wound up losing ·in the face of Cardigan!s strong offense and good teamwork. The highlight of their season was the first place that they took in the Pocumtuck-Eaglebrook Invitational Tournament on February 12th. Cardigan met and defeated the teams from Eaglebrook, Fay, and Fessenden to come away with a handsome trophy for the new display case in the Athletic Center. Captain Greg Cyr was one of the highest scoring members of the team. Other fine players include Bob Jangro, Mark Stewart, Mitch Handler, and Michael McLean. Many of the players come from the Boston area, with a heavy concentration from Melrose, so it was an exciting game to watch when the Varsity team faced Melrose on February 26th and beat them with a score of 14-2!
Reserve Hockey's season was characterized by cohesiveness and outstanding spirit. Coach McNeish led the team to aS win, 3 loss, 3 tie season. Captains Scott Woelfel and Jack Crisp set a good example with their skill and leadership. Ot~er players who helped the team to their winning season were David Freeman (the team's most improved player), Ernie Scalamandre, David Iverson, and Keith Handler. The team worked hard all season to improve and master their basic skills, and their effort paid of_f in their wins against K.U.A., Claremont, Eaglebrook, Randolph, and Kearsarge. One of the high points of the Third Hockey Team's season was their win against Lebanon's Youth Hockey team, who had beaten our boys in their first two matches this season. Although small in size, the Third Team more than made up for it in terms of determination. Facing teams all winter who were much larger than they, the team still ended the season with a very good record. Coach Ramos credits the success of this year's team to the efforts of the two co-captains, Bob Morrow and Peter Bickley, and other fine players such as Albert Schultz, Chris Skidmore, and Chuck Lawrence . The team faced its toughest competition against Randolph, Vermont, losing only in the last few minutes of the game by the close score of 8-7. If the performances on the ice this season are ar,y indication, the prospects for next year's Varsity team appear to be excellent!
