T O T H E M E M B E R S O F T H E C L A S S O F 1953 I 'will always have a particularly warm spot in my heart for the Class ol 1953 because you are the first class to graduate in m y Headmastership. I suppose I a m actually a freshman in m y job while you are seniors. Of course, I have worked with you since most of you were freshmen. Together w e have enjoyed or struggled through biography, novels, plays, poetry, grammar, precis, book reports, and American History; I have taught many of you parts of your skiing, I have coached some of you in plays, a goodly number of the class have played in the lines I have coached in football, some were editors of the Proctor Press under m y supervision. I have seen you through the College Boards and your college applications. Because I have had to give up many of those activities I will never k n o w the graduates of another class so well as I k n o w you. I have worked with you, laughed with you, played with you, praised you, and scolded you. Looking back over it all, I see as good a class as I can remember. Y o u are versatile, have a great deal of talent of many kinds; you have good athletes, good speakers, actors, writers, singers. Y o u have some excellent students, and some w h o have had a hard struggle. I k n o w that w e are going to be increasingly proud of you. D o a good job. W o r k hard, hold your heads up, and be proud of the record you have made here.

Football T h e 1952 season was one of achievements and one of disappointments. T h e squad was willing and ambitious and had able coaching from Messrs. Wright, Farrell, and C a m p . Each g a m e produced m a n y good plays, even though the results were sometimes disappointing. T h e season opened against Vermont Acade m y J.V.'s at Saxtons River. As is usual in thefirstg a m e of the season, there were m a n y errors of omission and m a n y penalties. O u r defense showed up well, as Vermont could put on only one sustained march during the game, that being in the second half w h e n they went to the one yard line with a first down. Here Proctor stopped them four times, took over the ball and went for a touchdown. That one, with one in the first half, gave us the g a m e 13-0. T h e team played Kents Hill for the second game, a rough and tough g a m e which w e lost 19-6. Gilbert's running and Putney's tackling were high lights for us, and our one touchdown came on a pass from Gilbert to Green. W e were one of two teams to score on Kents Hill during the seaon.
T h e third game, against N e w H a m p t o n J.V.'s here at Proctor, marked the achievement of a good offense, for w e scored four touchdowns and four points after touchdowns, while holding N e w H a m p t o n to 13 points. Gilbert's and Henderson's hard running gave us m a n y yards, and our defense continued to be sturdy and solid. Our annual g a m e with Westmount High School in Montreal, Canada, was a vast disappointment from our point of view. Perhaps the long bus ride was part of the reason for our poor showing, and perhaps the Canadian hospitality was too lavish before the game. At any rate, Proctor did not do justice to its training or to its ability. In the first half, played under Canadian rules, our defense completely shackled the opposition. Westmount lost more yards rushing than they gained. In the middle of the second period came the play that was a coach's dream, where every m a n carried out his assignment. Gilbert took the ball on our five yard line in a left formation wedge through the center. N o one laid a hand on him, and he outran the safety m a n and scored on a 95 yard run, the longest
of the season. T h efirsthalf ended with the score 5-0 in favor of Proctor. (A touchdown counts 5 points under Canadian rules.) T h e second half, played under American rules, was a nightmare for the coaches and the players. W e could do nothing right. W e fumbled continually, and the whole team went to pieces. Westmount scored three times, and the game ended 22-5 in their favor. T h e boys had a wonderful time on the trip and were royally entertained by our Canadian friends, but w e hope to show them some real American football the next time w e meet them. T h e team bounced back the next week against Tilton J.V.'s, w h e n w e w o n an exciting 13-12 victory. Tilton scoredfirst,but Putney blocked the try for the extra point, so the first half ended 6-0 against us. In the second half Proctor scored twice, once on an off-tackle plunge by Gilbert and again on a center plunge by Kittell. Gilbert scored the extra point, and the score was 13-6. Tilton was not through, however, and came back with another touchdown. W h e n Batal knocked d o w n a pass in the end zone for their extra point, the g a m e was safe for Proctor. The final game of the season, against Holderness at Plymouth, was one worth watching. Mr. Farrell said it was the best, most hard-
fought schoolboy game he had seen in m a n y years. Both teams were out to win. Both teams were in good condition. Both teams were on edge. W h o can forget Canfield's punt from the end zone, or Gilbert's forward to Fox and his lateral to Johnson, or Gilbert's pass to Green that would have scored but that Green was forced to step over the side line 10 yards out? Those were highlights for us, but the whole team played like demons offensively and defensively. Holderness was on the ball too, and their good plays were numerous. T h e game was a see-saw affair and a scoreless tie till within a minute and a half of the end. Then Holderness scored, and with no time for us to come back, the g a m e was lost to us 6-0. There could be no regrets over a game such as this one played to the finish by two old rivals. It was a g a m e and a good game for both sides. W h e n the fall of 1953 rolls around, Proctor will miss such line stalwarts as Captain Johnson, Putney, Coffin, Fox, Fowler, Rice, Green, and Killian, and such fine backs as Gilbert, Patten, Burdett, and Kittell. However, Captain Batal will have a good group of experienced players from which to build a winning team. Let us hope that next year will see more achievements and fewer disappointments.

Sknng T h e ski season started off with a bang with the majority of the team making a scenic trip to Canada. T h e atmosphere at Saint Jovite was just what the boys needed for limbering up. Even though the snow was not up to the standards of previous years they all had good fun and exercise. T h e Proctor A and B teams had their first meet with the University of N e w Hampshire Freshmen. It was a hard battle, as the Freshm e n had such excellent skiers as Osgood, w h o w o n three events, and Riisnaes, a Norwegian exchange student, w h o w o n the fourth event, the jump. (He later went on to win jumping contests against the best of the American skiers.) T h e Freshmen were given a good fight, but in the end they took the meet: 392.4 to 369.9 for the Proctor A team and 329.2 for the Proctor B team. T h e Proctor squad next went to Saxtons River for a three way meet with Vermont Academy and the Middlebury Freshmen. T h e boys could not seem to coordinate their resources as a team, so they functioned very poorly and came in third. Our best showing was in cross country, where Gilbert and Elb o w came in first and second respectively.
T h e Carnival meet on February 1 was of course on our campus, with Lebanon, Holderness, and Hanover as opponents. It was beautiful weather, and the snow conditions could not have been better. Proctor did not take first but a well earned second. T h e team score in this meet was excellent, and Proctor really pushed Lebanon forfirstplace. Lebanon took a tight hold on the base scores, but with outstanding skiing Elbow, Kittell, and Gilbert appeared in these scores for Proctor. In the jump Lebanon scored one hundred percent. Gilbert took a second in the down-hill, Elb o w a fourth in the cross country, and Kittell w o n the slalom. At the Tilton carnival again the team took a second place, behind Kimball Union Academy, w h o later w o n the Interscholastic Championships. T h e Proctor squad put a sizable gap between themselves and the remaining competitors: Deerfield, N e w Hampton, Brewster, and Tilton, which gave them the deserved second spot. Kittell got a third in the slalom, Elbow and Gilbert third and fourth in the downhill, Gilbert and Elbow third and fourth in jumping, and Elbow fourth in cross country.
In the next meet the team was well prepared, but as in a few previous meets, the rain was also well prepared. As the meet was called off, Vermont Academy did not arrive. M . I. T. and Exeter, the other competitors, however, were on their way to Proctor, so informal competition was held, the rain having ceased. Proctor took first place in this informal meet with a startling one hundred percent. T h e team entered the Interscholastics at the peak of their season but were taken for a bad loss, finishing sixth. However, Elbow took a third place in cross country, and Gilbert took a fourth place in both cross country and jumping. Considering the odds against which they were racing, both these boys did exceptionally well. T h e last meet of the season, on March 7, was here with Kimball Union Academy and Westmount High. Proctor took a heart-breaking second to K. U. A., losing to them by only three tenths of a point. Elbow tied for second in the down-hill, and Kittell took fourth
place in that event. Elbow and Gilbert finished one-two in cross country, and Hodgkins was fourth. Hodgkins and Elbow tied for second in the jump, and Gilbert was fourth. T h e slalom proved to be our downfall, where our best was Gilbert's fourth. T h e B team had a varied schedule and has done well this year. T h e boys took second place in a meet with Laconia and Concord. They had two meets with Lebanon, losing in cross country and jumping at Lebanon, but winning a close meet at Proctor in slalom and downhill. There were two meets with W o o d stock Country School, one at Woodstock and one at Proctor. T h e B team w o n both of these meets. T h e work of the B team is very important, as m a n y of these boys will be competing next year on the varsity. Captain Elbow, Gilbert, Johnson, Kittell, and Coffin graduate, but Co-Captains Ludwig and Pitcher, along with Hodgkins, Moulton, Freeman, Cooke, H a m p , and others will m a k e a strong nucleus for future teams.

^Baseball T h e 1953 baseball season featured classy fielding and heavy hitting on the part of both the Proctor team and its opponents. In terms of the w o n and lost record and the spirit shown every day, the season was highly successful. Suffering from the first g a m e jitters and completely outclassed in the pitching department, Proctor lost its first g a m e to Clark 19-0. T h e team's determination to win, however, was demonstrated by its performance against Tilton three days later. Behind the pitching of Glenn Casten and Harry Johnson, the team collected twelve solid hits and ten runs to emerge victorious by a 10-6 score. As usual, the two games with Holderness provided the most thrills. In our first h o m e game, w e delighted the crowd by going into the ninth inning with a 6-3 lead — only to have Holderness tie the g a m e u p at six all. In the last of the 10th with one out, Capt. Putney drew a base on balls and Harry Johnson, w h o had pitched all the way, unloaded a screaming triple to rightfieldwhich scored Putney with the winning run. At Holderness a week later, insecure pitching and fielding led to an uphill fight for Proctor in order to overcome a six run deficit, tie the g a m e in the seventh at nine runs each, and lose in the eighth, 10-9.
The rest of the season included a loss to Tilton and one-sided victories over Franklin High School, Kimball Union (2), and N e w Hampton. Unfortunately, w e lose talented and spirited competitors in Capt. Jesse Putney, Harry Johnson, Tip Gilbert, and Dain Patten. They provided the maturity and experienced ability to m a k e a well balanced team. Captain elect B o b Batal will, however, have a nearly complete infield and two experienced and capable pitchers to backbone the 1954 nine. Such standout regulars as Juniors Bill Donaldson, Frank Chambers, Glenn Casten, B o b Clarke, and Sophomores Larry Jones and Ed Darna should provide a good batting punch and tight fielding for next year. Such freshmen as Newell Freeman and Allen Q u i m b y will keep the upper classmen hustling. Under the able tutelage of Coach Wright, the Junior Varsity had a successful and constructive season with four wins and one loss in regular competition, and a post season victory over the ardent fishermen. M a n y of them loom as future competitors and received valuable training and conditioning for the work and play ahead. All of them learned what it means to participate in a sport that requires hard work.
VARSITY TENNIS T E A M Standing: Linderme, Stewart, Mr. Fisher, Coach, Cooke, Heckel. Kneeling: K. Weeks, Wright, Captain, Babb, Manager.
Tennis T h e Tennis T e a m had a successful season this year, a record of 7 out of 8 wins. T h e only loss was to Vermont Academy by a score of 6-1. W e did, however, beat Vermont in ourfirstmatch of the season by a score of 6-3. Last year w e ruined their undefeated season and this year they did the same to us. Our loss to Vermont was our only defeat in two years. O u r other matches were with Holderness, w h o m w e snowed under 8-1; K. U. A. w h o m w e defeated 5-1; and Tilton w h o was shut out with a score of 9-0. W e are sorry to say that our other matches were rained out. T h e highlight of our season was the trip to Exeter to play in the Interscholastics. W e left school on Friday morning, M a y 16th. Our hopes were not d i m m e d by the poor weather. Almost as soon as w e got there w e swung into action. Unfortunately w e did not meet with m u c h success. Dick Heckel, Jay Cooke, and Skip Stewart fell prey to the foe in that order. That left only Captain John Wright w h o emerged from the courts victor in the first round. T h e n all of us, including M r . Fisher and M r . Hatt and Manager Babb, indulged in a
light steak lunch to prepare ourselves for the trials of the afternoon. Unfortunately our hopes did not look as bright after Captain Wright lost in his second match. Cooke and Wright lost in a thrilling doubles match. After Stewart and Heckel w o n a doubles match by default w e left Exeter for the year. W e all had an interesting time and saw a lot of wonderful tennis playing. Out of the four top m e n on the tennis team three are leaving: Captain Wright, Heckel and Stewart. T h e rest of the squad bid them farewell and wish them luck. Three veterans of the team are left for next year: Weeks, Cooke and Linderme. T h e J. V.'s are losing four Seniors: Elbow, Kittell, Fowler and Root. Fortunately two good m e n will be back: Arnold and Steuer. This year the J. V.'s played two matches. They defeated Holderness 9-0 and lost to Laconia Varsity by a score of 5-1. All the tennis players wish to express their gratitude to M r . Fisher, the Varsity coach. In spite of his injured leg he was a great help to the team. O u r thanks go, too, to M r . Hatt w h o had charge of the J. V.'s.

Sailing The sailors have been very active this year with many projects as well as sailing. A n e w boat house has been built, a n e w dock set up and a n e w raft. T h e boat house, built under the direction of John Rivers, is one story high with one spacious room. There is adequate storage space for all the boats. This boat house was completed in the fall of 1952 and was made possible by contributions from alumni and friends. Proctor Academy is very grateful to these generous people whose donations amounted to almost $3000. Under the able leadership of Mr. Coolidge, Mr. O w e n , Commodore Haeberle and Manager Fourcher the sailors have become proficient at the sport. Chief among the skippers were: Commodore Haeberle, Bob Rohrer, Duncan Mclnnes, and Jim Graves. T h e J. V. m e n were: Anthony Perot, B o b Lindquist, Stan Bullard and Herbert Munsey. Our first meet was on October 4th w h e n w e went to Andover, Mass. and raced against the Schools' Sailing Club. Proctor lost 38-32 to the sailing teams of all the Andover schools. O n M a y 16th Proctor visited Marion, Mass. where w e lost another close meet to Tabor Academy by a score of 30-26. Every year for the pastfiveDartmouth and Proctor have had
three sailing meets. T h e winners of two out of three of these meets wins possession of a silver trophy for a year. This year Proctor was the unfortunate loser; on M a y 3rd by a score of 21-16; on M a y 9th by 54-47; and on M a y 20th by 34-21. The J. V.'s were successful on M a y 13th defeating Cardigan Mt. School by a score of 52-33 on h o m e waters. Honors for the day went to Skippers Perot, Lindquist and Bullard. It is gratifying that w e have three veteran Freshmen and two Sophomores to start next season with. Next year the sailors will miss the two Seniors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Commodore Haeberle and Hamilton. Mr. Coolidge has expressed our feeling about losing Manager Fourcher by saying: "I consider myself well broken in n o w but w e shall miss Bruce." However, Coron is taking over the management of sailing and w e are looking forward to his doing a fine job. T h e squad has appreciated the faithful work done by Bob McFadden as "bosun" of the launch. For the future for the sailing squad M r . Coolidge hopes that, within the next three years, a Sailing Club House will be built as an addition to the Boat House.
