Robert W. Stoddard 1906 - 1984

Cardigan Benefactor Robert W. Stoddard Remembered As Conservative Leader Member of Cardigan's Board of lncorporators since 1953, Chairman of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette Inc., and former chairman of ~/yman-Gordon Go., Robert W. Stoddard died in his Worcester home on December 15. He was 78.

Born in Trenton, NJ, he graduated from Worcester Academy in 1924, from Yale University in 1928, and from Harvard Business School in 1929.

His business and philanthropic activities were widespread: he served as a Trustee of Worcester Polytechnics Institute, the American Antiquarian socie.ty, the Worcester Art Museum, the Area Council of the Boy Scouts, and was past· president of the Worcester YMCA.

STODDARD (cont'd) He felt that the School was blessed with one of the most beautiful sites in the country. Early in his association with Cardigan he urged that future development should take advantage of nature's gifts. These gifts, he said, could be the basis upon which strong character is built and educations begun.

One result of the vision Mr. Stoddard brought to Cardigan is the Stoddard Learning Center, a library/.theater building which has become the center of campus life.

Patriotism, Enterprise

He was a strong believer in the strengths of the American economic system and was a leading proponent of free enterprise,.

In speeches to many political and community groups during his career, he warned that the American ideals of patriotism and private enterprise guaranteed by the Constitution faced serious threats from those who would turn the United States toward socialism.

Mr. Stoddard maintained that it was not too late to save the country from tyranny, and in 1958 along with Robert Welch and several other men of conservative leaning, he founded the John Birch Society, dedicated to awakening America to the Communist conspiracy.

Since then, he has remained a member of its council and executive committee.

Since attending a Communist ralley during his student days at Yale in 1927, Mr. Stoddard has been a lifetime opponent of Communist philosophy and practice.

He leaves his wife, Helen (Estabrook); two daughters, Judith King of Southborough, MA, and Valerie Loring of Worcester; a sister, Marion Fletcher of Worcester; and seven grandchildren.

The following was written by Tony King, Mr. Sto_ddars's son-in-law, after their last trip to the Stoddard Atlantic Salmon camp last fall.

Bob Stoddard's favorite place on earth was his camp at the mouth of Clearwater Brook on the Miramachi River in New Brunswick , Canada. This is where he always seemed to be thinking about getting to, and it was his grandchildren' s favorite place to be with him.

Because of a summer job, his youngest grandson, Bruce, wasn't able to visit C learwater in July with the rest of the family, so his grandfather arranged a special five-day trip in late summer to accommodate the young man's need to fish for salmon, and his own need to be with the young men. Bruce brought a friend, and Bob brought me.

Although nobody enjoyed fishing more than Bob, when he was at his own camp he usually fished less than anybody else .

There were trees to be transplanted, trails to be kept open and wildlife to be observed. And Bob knew where all the wildflowers and ferns lived and checked on them regularly, as though he were personally responsible for their welfare. Usually by the time Bob was ready to fish, a few salmon would have i?een taken. Bob was pleased when his guests had good luck, but with his great skill and local knowledge he usually caught up with even the most determined and experienced guest. · On his last trip Bob fished less than usual. He was planning a camp construction project, he couldn't resist watching the resident ospreys, and he had brought from home an unusually high pile of documents to be reviewed. I don't believe he realized until towards the end of the trip that he hadn't taken a single fish, while his grandson had been limiting out daily. In spite of the fact that Bob was less disturbed than anyone I know when others caught more of bigger fish than he did, even a saint wouldn't want his grandson to take all the fish.

Bob relished using flies scorned by his guides, and he particularly enjoyed catching fish where he had been advised there weren't any. Most of the salmon this trip had been taken on wet flies from the pool at the mouth of the brook, or from The 2

Run below it. Bob's dear fri<;nd-, guide and camp manager, Clinton Norrad, had been urging Bob to try a wet fly in the Mouth pool. But even more than usual, Bob had definite ideas about where and how he was going to take a salmon .

On his way downriver, he planned to throw a line or two at the famous Mouth pool, but more in the form of a salute than as an effort to catch a fi~h. Where he wanted to be was in the Ice House pool, and all he was going to use were dry flies.

After lunch on the last afternoon, Bob skipped his nap, side-stepped his beloved pile of reading matter, and headed for the Ice House pool all by himself. About the middle of the afternoon he hooked a fine salmon.

I loved to watch Bob hook and land a big fish. An engineer by nature and training, he considered everything: the wind, the current, and what he judged to be the size and temperament of the particular fish on the end of the line . Also, because he pre-tested each combination of rod, line and leader, he knew how they looked and acted under maximum stress. This meant he could put pressure on a fish most anglers wouldn't dare risk. He landed fish with great style and in a fraction of the time it took most people . · In this final fight however, he put something into the contest I hadn't seen before. I guess you would call it a kind of savoring. He took his time, and when the fish was netted at last, Bob was more than happy: he glowed.

The best fishing of the day lay ahead.

Shadows from the pines across the water stretched out invitingly as they signaled that quiet time at day's end when the fishing is usually best. But Bob was done .

He placed his fly in the hook keeper and walked up the bank . Past the Ice House, past The Run, past the Mouth Pool and on up to his cabin. He spend the rest of the afternoon fussing vyith his well -loved gear and more or less packing up.

At supper he was jubilant, and full of stories for the young men. ·

This year's Most Improved wrestler, Rick Massey, maintained an exceptionally positive attitude and distinguished himself on more than one occasion by earning points just as it seemed he was about to relinquish control.

JV Hockey Provides Thrills The J.V. Hockey Team, an all ninth grade team, had an exciting and suc<;:essful season. After winning its first three games, the team lost four in a row to superior teams. The CMS J.V. squad held the visiting Virginia All-Stars to eight goals, and in the process, CMS put in two goals of its own. The other losses to Laconia Bantam (A), Hartford High J.V. and Stevens High Varsity were close games.

CMS J. V. rebounded by winning its last two games against Hartford Bantam (A) by identical scores of 1-10 .

Coaches E. Ramos and J. McIntyre enjoyed the challenge of working with students whose ice-hockey experiences were limited. The many close games which the team played provided thrill and excitement.

Finding the conditions perfectly suited for another precise slalom run, David Schmidt '87 skied to a fifth place fini sh at the Eaglebrook Junior School Ski Championships, helping the team to a strong second-place finish behind the host squad. MVP Ian Litmans '86, the only non-Eaglebrook skier all seaso n to crack the top five overall, finished fifth in the combined slalom and giant slalom scoring. Eduardo 'Wala' Ampudia, a seventh grader from Mexico City, earned the Most Improved trophy under the' patient tutelage of Coaches Bruce Hennessey and ·Neil Brier.

Manual Work Program Remains Strong

by David F. Shelton, Head of Jobs Program Chairman, History Department

Although the jobs program has undergone some important changes recently, the goals and objectives have remained the same.

Each boy is given the opportunity to learn through the program that there is a dignity in useful work, pride in a job well done, and a sense of personal worth. A sense of responsibility remains another goal, and since everyone works together, a sense of community results. Increased pride in Cardigan is inevitable as each boy realizes that in a small way he is responsible for the smooth functioning of the School.

Although the jobs program does save the school money, goals achieved and the responsibilities learned seem much more important than the money saved.

The jobs themselves have changed very little over the years. The dining room waiters are still the largest group and certainly the most visible as they perform their tasks. Kitchen help, classroom cleaning, flag raising, and child care are some of the other jobs to which students are assigned .

A student job foreman, assisted by several assistants oversees the entire job program . He has the task of checking to see that jobs are done properly, finding substitutes when necessary, dealing with boys who have missed their jobs, and seeing that the program runs smoothly. The position of job foreman is considered se cond only to the school leader in importance. Franklin Staley, a 9th grader from Missouri, holds the position this year.

In the past few years important changes have taken place in the program which have been intended to strengthen its goals and objectives. One of these has been the assignment of jobs by class or grade.

Previously boys were assigned to jobs randomly. Now the 9th grade is responsible for all student kitchen help, the 8th graders

wait on tables, and the 6th and 7th graders are responsible for the rest. "Elected" leaders, those· boys who are in supervisory capacities, in the past have. performed only the jobs to which they were elected, but this year they also work alongside the other students as waiters, kitchen help or whatever the responsibility of that elected leader's class happens to be.

These changes seem to be working well .

Boys are more willing to help each other, to accept their responsibilities, and to accept the program as a fair one.

SUMMER SESSION The 1985 Summer Session will run from June 19th to August 3rd. Program Directors again this summer are Stephen L. Heath and Robert D. Small. Along with numerous veteran staff member from previous summers, many new teachers have been hired.

The experience and backgrounds that these new people have to offer is outstanding. Rita Carey will take over the position of English Department Head, replacing Peter Mc Williams who served in this capacity for ten years. Mrs. Carey is a teacher in Cardigan's History Department and has taught English for several summers.

Gail Bjornholm of Orleans, MA, and a current instructor of computer education at Cape Cod Community College will chair the Mathematics Department. Mrs . Bjornholm has been a teacher in our Summer Session for the past two summers. Thurza Small, sixth grade teacher on our Cardigan staff and a veteran of two summer sessions, will head the Reading Department. Dudley Clark continues to be our Activities Director.

We are especially pleased to welcome back as our sailing instructor Mr. Paul Hebert of Tilton School who has run this program very successfully for us in the past.

A major change to be made in this year's program will be a full-time waterfront director. Mr. James Dingle, currently a teacher at Bement School in Deerfield, MA, will fill this position , bringing with

him a wealth of experience in water safety, most recently having been the supervisor of the Brattleboro, VT, Red Cross Swim Program. Donald Morely from the Berkshire School, where he has run several diverse outdoor programs such as TraiJ Squad and Project Lifeline, will be our new Trail Camping Director. David Pollock will continue to be our Canoe Camping Director.

In addition to our weekly three day trips, Dr. Pollock will offer one day trips. each Wednesday.

A special presentation of "Beauty and the Beast" by the National Marion_ette Theatre, a return of storyteller Odds Bodkin, and many other surprises promise to make this another enjoyable and academically rewaraing summer for the students.
