DEDICATION
In appreciation of their seventeen years of devoted service to Proctor Academy and of Mr. Boyden's forty-nine years of service in the teaching profession, THE CLASS OF 1959
dedicates this edition of
THE GREEN L A N T E R N to M R . A N D MRS. ROBERT W .
BOYDEN
A Foreword From the Headmaster, Mr. Farrell The school year 1958-1959 at Proctor has been characterized by a sharply stepped up academic program. This has brought about an increased seriousness towards school work by the student body, and m u c h more and better work from nearly everyone. Studies are taking the all important place in our pattern of living that they deserve. There was comparatively little shortening of classes, and missing classes for sports and other extra-curricular activities. T h e Honor Rolls and Privilege Lists have grown longer with each marking period, and excellent progress has been made. Y o u will remember that last year with a n e w trophy case our athletic teams proceeded to lose nearly all our most coveted trophies. This year, in spite of increased academic pressure, they have come h o m e again, including the John C. C a m p Holderness-Proctor baseball trophy, 'which Holderness has held since it went into competition two years ago. O u r championship hockey team was a pleasure to watch, as was our undefeated football team. All the teams seemed to be well coached and to have good morale. I should like to say a word of appreciation here to Robert W . Boyden w h o has been the faculty adviser for the "Green Lantern" for m a n y years. This is a somewhat thankless job, as the yearbook is published in August w h e n everyone is away, and the copies mailed to the subscribers. By the time school opens most people have forgotten about it and the Seniors, w h o are mainly concerned, are gone. M r . and Mrs. Boyden retire this year and the m a n w h o takes on the yearbook will find that he has inherited a very high standard at which to aim. W e shall miss the Boydens in m a n y ways, but not least the unobtrusive w a y in which the formidable array of pictures in this book have been put together.

Varsity Football This year 25 boys returned to school on September 15 for football camp, captained by John Laundon and Dewitt Woods. A m o n g them were 11 lettermen, eight former J.V.

/ V Football T h e J.V. Football T e a m
had a good sea-
son. Its record was one win, three ties, and one defeat. Throughout the year the team, Chris Johnston, Captain, had a will to win. Each player did his best while he was on the field, and w h e n he was on the bench he cheered his teammates on. T h e J.V.'s had two coaches this year: Mr. Peter C a m p w h o handled the backfield, and M r . Wilson w h o coached the line. Both coaches did a fine job with the team throughout the season. T h e J.V. season officially opened the second day of school. Uniforms were issued, and the team went out for its first day of practice. At first the team looked slow and somewhat feeble, but that was to be expected on the first day of practice. In a few days, however, the team began to shape up, and in about a week everyone had settled d o w n to play hard football. This hard playing never stopped until the end of the season. After a few more weeks of practice the J.V.'s played their first g a m e with Laconia High J.V.'s This was where all their practice was to be put to use. Even though it was raining the team spirit was not dampened, and the J.V.'s w o n handily 38-8. O n October 15 the team was scheduled to play Holderness. This was the big game, and with two weeks of solid practice the team
looked as if it could win the game. From start to finish both teams fought hard, and at the end the score read: 14-14. After another week of hard practice the J.V.'s met Kimball Union on October 22. Both teams played hard throughout the game, and the final score was again a tie, 6-6. A little discouraged because they were not winning, the J.V.'s practiced hard for the next week. O n October 25 they played Golden Rule Farm. Everyone played hard and the score was once more a tie, 8-8. W i t h the last g a m e coming up, the team drilled hard. O n November 5 the J.V.'s met N e w H a m p t o n with hopes that they could win their final game. Neither team scored in thefirstperiod, but in the second N e w H a m p ton managed to push the ball over. T h e Proctor eleven pulled itself together but could not quite manage to score. At the final whistle, the Proctor Green had lost a heartbreaker 6-0. Thus ended the J.V. football season. T h e uniforms were turned in and the footballs put away till next year. T h e once noisy and crowded gridiron was n o w quiet and deserted. Through it all, however, the players gained valuable experience
and
lessons in sports-
manship.

Hockey This year's hockey team completed its season with a very impressive record of 10 wins, 2 losses, and 2 ties. It also w o n the Lakes Region League trophy for the second time in five years. O n December 17th, one day before the Christmas vacation, the team went to N e w H a m p t o n and opened up its season with a 3-2 win over N e w Hampton. Captain John Laundon scored 2 goals and John Shotwell, right wing on the first line, added another goal. O n January 10th Brewster Academy came to Andover and defeated the Proctor sextet by a score of 4-1. Proctor just seemed unable to get started. Hanover High School then played our team and was defeated 2-1. This was the first time in 5 years that Proctor defeated the Hanover team. W e then took 3
straight victories. First w e conquered N e w H a m p t o n again 5-2. In this g a m e John Laundon was the high scorer. Next was Holderness 1-0 and finally Brewster 5-2. St. Paul's came next, and thefinalscore was 0-0. This was one of the hardest played games all year with Goalie Toby Allen playing an amazing game. This was the first time the Proctor sextet had not been defeated by St. Paul's. T h e team's next g a m e was with Tilton and w e w o n easily by a score of 2-0, with Keith Pratt getting both goals. During Carnival weekend at Proctor, the team took on Holderness and was defeated 3-1. Then came the Kimball Union g a m e which was played under very poor ice conditions due to the hot weather. T h e eventual score was 2-2. O n February 18th the Tilton team was
defeated by a 2-0 score, and this victory for Proctor gave them the Lakes Region League trophy. After this win w e w o n the next 3 games, thefirstwith a 2-1 score over Kimball Union in which Dudley Clark scored the winning goal. Then came a 7-0 victory over Hanover High in which Rick White scored a hat trick to lead the team. T h e last g a m e with Vermont Academy was w o n by Proctor 5-0. Keith Pratt was high scorer for the team and was also elected Captain for next year. For most of the games the Varsity lined up as follows: First Defense, John terKuile and Dudley Clark; First Line, Captain John Laundon, center, and Keith Pratt and John Shotwell, wings. Second Line, (known as the Senior Line as all were Seniors), Rick White, Center, and Harry Taylor and Gentry Clark, wings. T h e team will deeply miss Captain John Laundon, Dudley Clark, Toby Allen, Rick White, Harry Taylor, and Gentry Clark w h o
will be graduating this year. But with 8 returning lettermen next year the team should be fairly successful. J. V. HOCKEY The J. V. hockey team began its season with a new coach, M r . Wilson, a n e w teacher at Proctor. T h e squad lacked experience since most of the players had never participated in organized hockey before entering Proctor. T h e first g a m e which was played at N e w H a m p t o n was lost by a score of 7-0. As the season progressed the team became more organized and worked together as a team. T h e scores were closer. T h e J. V.'s w o n over Tilton with a score of 6-0 and lost to Holderness 5-0. Closing the season the J. V.'s tied Holderness and Cardigan Mountain with scores of 4-4 and 6-6. All the team had an enjoyable season with their new coach and Captain Chuck Monzeglio.

Skiing The ski team had a pretty successful year, competing against sixteen schools and only losing to four of them. The first meet was with Vermont Academy at Saxtons River. They w o n the downhill by a wide margin because of spills by a number of our team m e m bers. But our team put together good runs in the slalom so that the score was even. Again in the afternoon Vermont w o n both the jumping and the cross-country, which gave them the meet. A few days later the Dartmouth and the University of N e w Hampshire Freshmen came to ski against us on our o w n slopes. Again it was the same situation: w e finished high in the Alpine events but because of our weak Nordics w e were easily beaten by both teams. T h e next meet was with Holderness and Tilton.

Baseball T h e Varsity this year played 12 games, winning 6 and losing 6. This year's team was by far one of the best teams the school has had for quite a few years. T h e first g a m e w e played was with N e w Hampton. The score was 17-5 in favor of NewHampton. This was the worst beating w e took all year. John Laundon started the game and was relieved by Ken Lindquist. Our second g a m e was with Holderness. They beat us 6-4. Gary Proctor hit two triples for us in a losing cause. John Laundon pitched the entire g a m e for us. Next w e played at K.L'.A. with their J.V.'s. There w e gained ourfirstvictory- with a 14-0 defeat over K.U.A.

T h e next g a m e was a return g a m e with Holderness. W e beat them 12-6, and for the first time w o n the J. C. C a m p Trophy which has been in competition for the last two years. Laundon started the g a m e and was relieved by Lindquist in thefirstinning, w h o did a terrific job. Then w e played our return g a m e with N e w Hampton. In this g a m e w e got a total of 18 hits and they got only 6. But through our bad fielding they managed to beat us 15-12. Laundon pitched the whole game. Our with

Lots of credit must be given to Jack C a m p w h o devoted a lot of time and effort in coaching the Varsity. John Laundon did a terrific job of being the team's Captain this season. Next year's Captain will be "Chief" Flanders. T h e Junior Varsity Baseball team experienced a very successful year. T h e team w o n 5 games while losing 6. T h e hitting and pitching was good, but the team just didn't seem to get the breaks. T h e two most active pitchers of the team were Harris Shenker and K e n Savage.

Tenni nis Very early in the spring the tennis squads started getting into condition for the coming season by shoveling and scraping the ice and snow off the tennis courts. It was good exercise, and flabby muscles soon hardened under this training. Soon Mr. Hatt had his tennis cohorts out with racquets instead of shovels, and the season was under way. O n April 15 the Varsity Tennis T e a m played itsfirstmatch against Tilton, winning 5-2. T h e next match was against N e w H a m p ton with the Proctor Tennis T e a m taking it 6-3. Captain Dudley Clark took his singles as did Coues, Rogers, and Cowles. Clark and D r u m w o n their doubles, and so did M o u n -
tain and Cowles. Both these latter matches went into a three set contest. The next match was against Vermont Academy with Proctor overwhelming the other team 6-2. O n April 25 Proctor had a match with Holderness, winning it 6-3. It was the first one w e had w o n against Holderness in three years. Captain Clark w o n his singles with Cowles and Mountain winning theirs also. D r u m , Rogers, and Coues all lost their singles matches. In the doubles w e clinched the win by taking all three matches. O n M a y 6 w e had the return match with Holderness, but this time the score was reversed, Holderness winning 6-3.
Against Laconia High School w e w o n 7-1, taking all but one singles matches and both the doubles. O n M a y 9 w e had a match with Brooks School. All the matches were close and exciting, but the experience of the Brooks players enabled them to win all the matches. O n M a y 16 w e played Tilton in our second league match, winning by the margin of 7-2. Next on the list was our second match with N e w Hampton, but this time they beat us 5-4. O n M a y 23 w e played Concord High School, conquering them 9-0. T h e final match of the season was a return engagement with Vermont Academy. This time they w o n from us 5-4. Captain Clark took his singles, as did D r u m and Mountain. In the doubles Vermont took two matches to our one. T h e team ended its season with seven wins
and four losses. T h e team came in second in the Lakes Region League this year. Next year Captain Clark, Coues, and Rogers will be lost due to graduation. They are going to be a great loss. All of us on the team are indebted to our coach, M r . Hatt, for his faithful service to the team and for his patience with us all. The

Sailing Although the Sailors didn't have a winning season, they had a very good building season. In the fall Nat Dodge w o n the Nelson Bowl at Medford. Nat went d o w n to Medford a couple of other times but didn't win anything else. D u k e McGlennon went d o w n to Medford to try to win a meet, but also failed. T o end the fall season Schools Sailing Club came up here and beat us. T h e spring was even worse than the fall as far as winning races went, but the sailors gained a great deal of experience out of the season. Nat went d o w n once in the spring as defender of the Nelson Bowl, but lost it back to Archbishop Williams School. At M.I.T. Nat Dodge and Bob Leonard both placed fourth in their o w n classes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nat in the Senior Class and Bob in the Junior. Exeter came to Proctor at the beginning of the spring season and beat us. Proctor went d o w n to Tabor and Schools Sailing Club races. Both Tabor and Schools won, the latter winning by only three quarters of a point. At this
point Proctor felt that the other schools beat her because they k n e w their o w n waters better than Proctor. But later both Tabor and Schools came here and beat us. Proctor, however, lost both meets by a very close margin. Next year Proctor hopes to have a strong sailing team although it will lose C o - C o m m o dores Lovejoy and Schumacher. T h e majority of the team will be coming back next year. T w o Freshmen, Toby K n a p p and Bob Leonard will be returning as Sophomores. Jack Hobson and next year's C o m m o d o r e Nat Dodge will be coming back as Juniors and "Bucky Beaver" Thiel will be back as a Senior next year. This year has been a good one for capsizing. Nat Dodge and Toby K n a p p went over in the fall. In the spring Toby went over once and Bob Leonard twice. Lately M r . Coolidge has been planning very long races which take all afternoon to race. W e hope next year the sailors will bring h o m e all the trophies.
Golf T h e 1959 Golf T e a m had its share of matches this year, a total of 9 in all. This was quite a change from last year's 4 matches. It was a while this spring before the Sunapee Golf Course was open, so to get in practice, Mrs. Farrell and M r . Batchelder held practice at Gannett house Hill, Humphrey's field and even on Silo Hill hitting balls into the silo. From there, with the weather getting a little better, the next stop was Franklin High School's indoor golf tee and then to the Kearsarge Golf Course for a few days until Sunapee finally opened. T h e first match of the fourth year of golf was on the 29th of April with N e w H a m p ton. Neither team played its best but N e w H a m p t o n w o n 7-2. T h e next week, on M a y 6th, our team lost to Tilton 61/2-21//2. Both these games were away. O n M a y 9th Proctor came back to Sunapee to be beaten by Laconia High School. T h e first victory was against Colby on M a y 13th. T h e team w o n easily 9-0. O n the 16th of M a y w e played Tilton again and this time were beaten 9-0. Four days
later N e w H a m p t o n came to Sunapee to win 5-4. In this g a m e the teams cut d o w n a total of 43 strokes from the time they last played three weeks before. T h e next day Colby was defeated again 9-0. O n M a y 23rd Tilton, N e w Hampton, Brewster, and Proctor played in the Lakes Region Tournament. Tilton w o n and got the trophy that went along with it. T h e last match was on M a y 27th with Franklin High School. It was a tie and John terKuile shot a 36 which was very good. Mrs. Farrell and M r . Batchelder gave letters to John terKuile, Captain, Dave Lunger, Chris Whittaker, Frank Soule, Jim Levy, Allen Kaplan, Bill Cordis. Jim Levy will be the only graduate and the rest will be back next year. There also m a y be some n e w boys to join. Even though the team did not win m a n y matches, it gained experience needed by most of the players. W i t h this year behind it the Proctor Golf T e a m will be able to go on from there.

The Proctor Players At ourfirstmeeting of the year w e decided to hold one stage production this year, which would be given, once at Winter Carnival and once for the townspeople. "The Solitaire M a n " by Bella and Samuel Spewack was the play w e decided to present. It is a three act melodrama which takes place in a British airplane flying from Paris to London. T h e time is in the late 1920's and is concerned with a jewel robber and the plot to expose him. T h e robber, however, avoids being detected and thus incriminates an innocent man. T h e casting sessions began before Christmas. T h e leading male parts were played by Arthur
Schacht, Todd
Hall, and
William
Cocks. As usual, w e had to call upon the masters' wives to fill the women's parts. These were ably played by Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Peter C a m p , and Mrs. Hatt. N o t to be forgotten is the excellent work of the stage crew, directed by M r . Barrett and Mr. Green. Joe Spofford, student leader of the stage crew, is to be highly commended
for his faithful and untiring service to the club. W e were a bit worried about the midyear examinations interfering with rehearsals, but through the cooperation of the club w e managed to get everything set up for the opening night. It seemed to be a great success as well as a lot of fun. It surely provided a lot of laughs for all concerned. Immediately following the play w e had a cast party. T h e mother of one of the players was nice enough to donate some refreshments, so w e had a very pleasant and refreshing cast party. At our last meeting of the year, held in the latter part of M a y , w e elected the n e w officers for the coming year. Todd Hall was elected
President and
Arthur
Schacht
was
elected Secretary-Treasurer. Unfortunately M r . C a m p is leaving us this year. T h e Players wish to thank him for all his efforts. W e shall miss him. W e are n o w looking forward to next year and our n e w Dramatics Club director.

Westmount O n Friday, October 17th, thirty-two boys on the Proctor Academy Football T e a m left by bus for Montreal to play our annual football g a m e with Westmount High School. After arriving at the high school at three o'clock, the boys were introduced to their dates for the weekend. That night there were m a n y early parties in Westmount so that the boys could get plenty of rest before the big g a m e Saturday morning. T h e g a m e Saturday was one the boys especially wanted to win. They not only wanted to even up the series between the two schools, but they also wanted to preserve an undefeated season. T h efirsthalf of the g a m e under American rules began with a bang. John Laundon carried back the opening kickoff 75 yards for a touchdown. Westmount soon came back to tie up the game. In the second half under Canadian rules Proctor tried a new system to beat the twelve m a n rule. They stationed the extra back field m a n out about twenty yards from the team
and left him there while they called the plays. In the third period w e ran our plays regularly with the "Lonesome George" drawing off the defense. Laundon scored in this period on an end run and scored again in the fourth period after a long pass to "Lonesome George." T h efinalscore was Proctor 20, Westmount 6. That night after the g a m e a Westmount High School dance, featuring the WestmountProctor theme, was held. T h e next morning the boys left their dates after an enjoyable weekend and headed for Proctor. Holding up the tradition, the Westmount ski team came d o w n to Proctor for the W i n ter Carnival festivities. Both teams spent most of the weekend on the Blackwater slopes. T h e snow conditions were excellent. O n Sunday the Westmount ski team left Andover and headed back to Canada, thus ending the Westmount-Proctor rivalry for the 1958-1959 season.
