Headmasters Message O n e of the compensations for getting on in years is the ability to look back over a year as one link in a long chain, and to compare it to those that have gone before. Although the years are similar in m a n y ways, each has its o w n characteristics, and is colored for each of us by the success or failure that the year m a y have brought, and by any personal tragedy that w e m a y have suffered. W e are likely to speak of a year as being a good one or a bad one according to the proportions of difficulty that w e m a y have had. Good or bad, as w e get older they seem shorter and more precious. Trouble w e learn to accept as an inevitable part of our lives, so that w e can relish the triumphs, small and large, that m a y have come to us. For a school like Proctor, a year is colored to no small extent by the calibre of the senior class. Their leadership and example have not only set the pattern for the year that has passed, but have a kind of immortality in their effect upon the classes behind them, w h o in turn will affect others. The Class of 1963 has been a strong one. There have been cases of poor judgment by individuals, but this is natural, and can be classified as learning the hard way. The leadership of the class seems to m e to have been positive, and its influence good. Its effect upon the underclassm e n remains to be seen. T h e academic achievement of the class, and its record in college admissions is the best that w e have had. W e have watched the members of the class mature in every way, and with pride w e send them on to college. Mrs. Farrell and I are increasingly aware that very soon we will greet the freshm a n class with w h o m we, too, will graduate.

O n e of the definitions of m a n that I like best is that "he is a culture-making animal". W h a t w e have remembered as well as what w e m a y have forgotten taken together binds a group or a people into a cohesive unit and molds the lives and personalities of its members. Here at Proctor Academy you have been exposed to religion, art, technical subject matter, ethical codes, and ways of doing things. All of these present ancient and honorable ways of thinking; and as well you have begun to develop your o w n modern kind of thoughts and feelings. It is within such a culture that man's spirit or soul develops. As you m a y have recognized, there is a great controversy going on today about "two cultures", technical and humanistic, with the idea prevalent that never shall the two meet. M u c h about your future will depend upon your willingness to struggle with this issue. I very m u c h doubt the validity of the "two culture" idea, f think each responsible m e m b e r of society shares a c o m m o n tradition as surely as he has a c o m m o n obligation. O n e of tire present dangers to our society is the suggestion that science and technology serve ends that are different from our c o m m o n purpose.

Is not our c o m m o n obligation and purpose to accomplish a desired result with the least expenditure of money, time and physical output to the end that our resources, time and energies can be available for further advances of all mankind? Of course w e need today's scientists to lead us down unknown paths and the engineers to teach us h o w to use newly created machines, but equally vital to modern culture is the sociologist to gauge the impact of change, the philosopher to see n e w values and the religious thinker to help us keep alive our divine spark! It is with such thoughts in mind that the Proctor Trustees, along with the m a n y fiscal and policy matters demanding their attention, show a deep concern for the progress each student makes as he spends a few years under the influence of our Proctor community. Each of you k n o w it is the natural beauty of our campus set in the rolling hills of N e w Hampshire, the instructors and fellow studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but most of all you yourselfâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that makes the Proctor Spirit come alive each year. W e , as Trustees, are trying to do our part as best w e know h o w , and trust that you too feel proud of your contribution to our c o m m o n purpose.

WINTER CARNIVAL QUEEN

BOB NIELSON AND THE QUEEN

Proctor was busy. There was a play rehearsal every night, the teams were practising, a committee was decorating the gym, er, I m e a n Slocomb Hall, and the maintenance crew was working overtime. Finally the long awaited Friday afternoon had come, and the girls had begun to arrive. They came by bus from Boston, by train, plane, or private auto. They came from m a n y states and all points of the compass, but w e boys could see little profit in thinking about such trivia as h o w they had gotten here, but rather settled right d o w n to the business at hand. First on the agenda was a buffet dinner. The kitchen staff did its best to fool the girls into thinking that this was just another everyday meal for Proctor Students. Following dinner, the Proctor Players put on a production of Mr. Roberts under the direction of Mr. Condon. Following the play there was an informal dance in Holland Addition. The dance ended at 11:30 so that w e all could get lots of sleep for the hard day that was to follow. Breakfast Saturday morning was soon dispensed with to begin the day's activities. The first event was skiing on the Blackwater. The weather was

quite wintryâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;about 30 degrees below zero with a strong wind. The warm-up hut was jammed with skiers as well as some w h o were interested in indoor sports of one sort or another. After a nourishing lunch of "mountain stew," the afternoon was spent watching a Varsity Hockey game with Holderness which w e w o n handily. S o m e time later everyone retired to their rooms to prepare for the gala evening ahead. Following an excellent dinner, the boys escorted their dates to the dance. The climax of the evening came with the crowning of the queen, with Neilson's date taking the honors. During the interlude, entertainment was provided by twothirds of a trio. The evening progressed rhythmically to a halt. Sunday morning the braver ones ventured out onto Slalom Hill and the skating rink for some sporting. Lunch came and went, and the boys, w h o had all along been counting the hours, began to count the minutes. The dates went to pack their copious bags. Soon another Proctor Winter Carnival had gone, leaving milestones here and there in young lives, and m a n y boys staring reflectively into space.

Looking back over the past four years w e see that the class of 1963 has reason to be proud of its accomplishments. Of the 41 seniors graduating this year, only 13 are four year men. The class of 1963 is the largest in the history of Proctor. They have reached n e w heights academically. T w o years after the last of the liberal students, the purpose of the class of 1963 has been solely college preparation. T h e college acceptance rate this year is higher than ever before. They have increased the pace of academic standards at Proctor, and as the school has helped them, they have helped the school. In extra-curricular activities they have also excelled. After three years of lacrosse, the 1963 season was the best yet. The Proctor Press has increased in size and stature over the past year due to efficient management and distribution. The Proctor Chest drive was a complete success. The class of 1963 was thefirstsenior class to m a k e full use of the facilities of Shirley Hall. But this is not what w e will remember most of all about Proctor. It will be the little things that happened to us throughout the year. The friends we've made, and the n e w experiences shared with them are to be remembered. M a n y of us shall never see each other again, but their m e m o r y and influence will stay with us. N o w w e go out to meet an even greater challenge, knowing that Proctor has given us the tools to meet this challenge. M a y those w h o follow us fare as well as we, living in Proctor tradition and Proctor code. N A T FULLER

The 1963 baseball season didn't turn out as the team expected. Their spirit though kept them fighting to the last, in every game. O n the m o u n d was Mike Strong and relief chucker Bill White. Bruce V a n Ness caught these strong-armed hurlers, and was amazingly quick and accurate with his throws to second base. Harry Pierce, playing first, and Jeff Foster at short, were k n o w n never to let a ball by their gloves. In the field were Bandy Minor, John Pollock, and B o b Applegarth, not to forget, of course, Ronnie Armstrong at third and Bucky A d a m s at second base. Proctor had a tough season this year. They started off with a near win from our rivals up the valley, but couldn't quite push the score over to our favor. All the season's games seemingly went in this pattern. T h e team had an unusual amount of spirit, and valuable coaching from Mr. Condon, but these didn't seem to be enough. So, with the hope for better luck next year and the memories of this year, the 1963 baseball season came to a close.

Junior Varsity Baseball The f. V. baseball season was not totally victorious, although we did beat Holderness twice. Thefirsttime w e w o n by one run in extra innings. In the second game they were completely snowed under w h e n w e gained seven runs in the last inning. Only two of our games were cancelled; one because of rain and one because of snow. They were both with Tilton. Our practices were punctuated by the witty sayings of George Infanti and the crisp comments of Art Cox. Everett Decatur m a d e his contribution with a heroic leap, backwards, into the stream in left field while chasing a fly ball. In one game the whole team stared in a w e at Jeff Clarke's undying efforts to defend h o m e plate against a fully equipped football player. This year's J, V. baseball team being m a d e up of mostly n e w boys (only seven from last year), has developed a closer unity and cooperative working effort for the team's good. This was helped greatly by our coach M r . Armstrong and captain Dick Waltz. Some boys w h o have played little or no baseball before have evolved into fairly good players. All in all the ]. V. baseball season was helpful, rewarding and profitable to all w h o participated.

SAILING Northfield Tabor Williston Acad.

This year the sailing team had the pleasure of sailing in six new boats. The boats are called Flying Dutchmen Juniors and are about thirteen feet long. They are made out of fiberglass which is practical because they don't require much maintenance. Ourfirstmeet was with the Northfield School for Girls. Our coach, Mr. Knox, and Bill Prout got so excited over the meet that they both fell in even before the girls got here. Despite this minor trouble w e w o n the meet four to one. O n M a y fourth Tabor Academy came here to race against us. ft was a very windy day and one of the Tabor boats tipped over. They had a good team and they managed to edge us out by a score of 77V2-74V2. Williston Academy came up to race us on the eleventh of May. There was hardly any wind. W e put up a good fight but luck was with them in the last race, and the)' edged us out 3-2. W e next hosted the Dublin School. It was a

North Yarmouth Academy came to race us next. There was a good breeze and they managed to turn two boats over in two races. They kept trying, but by the end of the afternoon w e w o n 4-0.
