I960 THE BLAZE
CARDIGAN MOUNTAIN SCHOOLGrades 6 through 9
on Canaan Street LakeCanaan, New Hampshire
The Senior Class dedicates this Yearbook to R o g e r W. N o l d t to
show their appreciation for his devoted endeavors to Cardigan during
the last five years. He has given his time and energy unselfishly to the
many facets of the school’s life. His wholehearted interest will always
be remembered by everyone.
The class of I960, which graduates this year, is the first one to have spent all four years on Cardigan’s new campus. These boys have played a large part in shaping the present day traditions of the school. That they have done their jobs well is reflected in no small measure by this book. Our good wishes go with them.

At the scene of a good laugh there is a good prospect that Ed is there, laughing hard. One of Ed’s favorite pastimes is arguing, (in a scholarly fashion, of course) with Mr. Leavitt. He rules his dorm with an iron hand, but is always fair and ready to have a good time.

When inquiring about how he broke his leg, prepare yourself for a reply that may be long and drawn out. This discourages questions, doesn’t it, Roger.^ Too bad you didn’t get a little more use from those Head skis. Roger is a good student, "paries Fran^ais” , holds a position on the Privilege List, and is a J.A.C. student. His famous saying, "What a wonderful place to spend the winter.”

It has been said that some people entering Jim ’s room thought a tornado had hit it. He cleans up on the courts, however, and is an outstanding competitor on the tennis squad. Jim always has a big smile to accompany his strong forehand.

Willett is always willing to talk and join a bull session. He was a particularly valuable member of the football and ski teams. W illett was also a very familiar sight in the library in the evening as he was the only day student to stay "on board” during the evening study hall to get his work done.

Mike is the international playboy of the Northeastern ski resorts! He likes to travel . . . anywhere. A familiar sight was Mike trotting around the dining room gathering information on where the various activities would meet.

A confirmed "rebel” from the south, Walt is an avid reader and a lover of American (southern) history. One of his oft said quips is, "Do as I say, not as I do.”

Football 8 and 9, Baseball 8, Skiing 8 and 9, Waterfront 9, Chess Club 9, Electronics Club 8, Glee Club 9.
This fall Mai was a hard tackling defense- man on the varsity football squad. He is a well-rounded athlete and participates in most of the outdoor sports. Indoors he works as hard at his studies. He was also one of those to enjoy J.A.C. privileges.

Fred became known this year as one of Cardigan’s coat and tie set. Fred is small, but he is fast and packs enough of a wallop to handle himself among his larger classmates. He likes to make and fly model airplanes. At meals Fred eats and eats, but never seems to sprout. He is often doing experiments in the field of science and has become an expert on the eccentricities and personal problems of the white mouse!

Jim is one of Cardigan’s towering skyscrapers. He enjoys tinkering with cars and fixing odds and ends of odd things. Another of Jim ’s loves is cleaning his room on free afternoons! He likes to ski and was a valuable worker on Campus Improvement.

"Ned” "K iw i” Canterbury School ’61Glee Club 7, Tennis 8 and 9, Skiing 7, 8
and 9, Waterfront 7 and 8, Ski Improvement 7.
Ned comes to Cardigan from South Hadley Falls, Massachusetts, which he feels classifies as civilization.
Kiwi, the shoe polish kid of Cardigan, may often be found reading in his spare time. He was always willing to help out and was an industrious worker.
T h o m a s H e n r y H a l e
"Tom ” Thomas More School’61Airplane Club 8, Forestry 8 and 9, Skiing
8 and 9, Campcraft 8, Waterfront 9.Tom is an enthusiastic fisherman. He was
often seen wandering around with a fishing pole ("rod” ) in his hand. He often got up early in the morning to go fishing before the rest of the campus was awake. Tom has been on forestry a number of times while he has been at Cardigan. He thoroughly enjoys the lore of the out-of-doors.
C h a r l e s H i l a n d H a l l "Charlie” Proctor Academy ’61
Fire Marshal 8 and 9, Baseball (Manager) 9, Skiing 8 and 9, Waterfront 8, Campus Improvement 8 and 9, Host Committee 9, Founders Prize.
If you want to find Charlie, there are two or three places on campus where he is apt to be found, in the showers, stretched upon his bed, or working in the shop. He has the Hi- Fi bug and might also be found listening to Shelly Berman or the Dukes of Dixieland or using some of his other "sounds” for theme music to accompany a bull session.

When the young ladies appear, Tom is undoubtedly nearby and as we would say, "Playing the role.” He is usually dressed in the latest fashion, and is a respected student leader and one of our best all around athletes. The Host Committee ran very well under his able direction this year.

Chronicle (Co-Editor) 9, Electronics Club8, Airplane Club 8, Football 9, Riflery 8, Skiing 8 and 9, Waterfront 8, Ski Improvement 9, Brewster Treasurer 9, Host Committee 9.
If you were ever in need of an idea, or stumped about how to do something, Tony was high on your list of people to go to see. He likes photography and reads a great deal, especially science fiction. He is one of the reasons why the Chronicle met its deadlines. He is a dependable, hard worker. He is well traveled and often has a group in his room swapping stories or listening to his joke record.

One of the senior class’s most respected members, Sandy had his finger in many pies his final year at Cardigan. He is modest and close mouthed enough, however, so that you would never find out much about his busy role by asking him. Gas is loaded with information about racing boats and when not busy with something else might be found sailing one of Cardigan’s tamer Tech Dinghies.

"Jim ” "Slim’ Proctor Academy ’61Football 8 and 9, Baseball 8 and 9, Ski
Team 8, Hockey 9, Clark-Morgan Floor Leader 9, Glee Club 9, Quartet 9.
Jim is Cardigan’s muscleman. Whenever in search of Jim there were two logical places to look the spring of his senior year. One, on his way to conferences, or outside having a game of catch or slugging out flies. During the spring he was always at home in his sawed-off dungaree shorts and sleeveless sweatshirt. Going to give football another whirl next year, Jim.^

"Tom ” "Hoppy” Lawrence Academy ’61 Waterfront 8 and 9, Campcraft 8, Skiing
8 and 9, Riflery 8 and 9.Tom reached stardom this year playing
the part of Simon Seed in the Clark-Morgan Minstrel. He always wears a smile and has a new joke to tell. In algebra class you could usually find him debating a point with the teacher, and although he usually lost, this did not wipe away his infectious smile. One of our smaller seniors, Tom worked hard to make the varsity baseball squad this year, and has done a good job showing that size can be over-emphasized.

Blaze (Photography) 9, Chronicle 8 and 9, Student Council 9, Host Committee 8, Fire Commissioner 8, Tennis 9, Forestry 9, Skiing 8 and 9, Waterfront 8, Brewster Floor Leader 9, Scholastic Award.
Hearing that Cape Cod twang, we knew it was Fred. He is one of Cardigan’s accomplished sailors, and employs some of his salt water know-how on Canaan Street Lake’s race courses. He is a Brewsterite and could often be found blowing the dormitory horn, or enjoying a good laugh with his schoolmates.
D u n c a n L o w m a n J e n k s "Dune” Vermont Academy ’61
Chronicle 9, Football 9, Hockey 9, Baseball (Co-Captain) 9.
How are the girls in Greenfield, Dune? Duncan has been a good sport, an excellent competitor, and a valuable athlete on three varsity teams in his only year at Cardigan. He also loves to "play the role” and this also found him at many gatherings the center of attraction.

If ever missing books we went in search of Lew, who collects the misplacement fines for the student council. Lew was the school leader and a big, and often wet, member of Forestry. He was always after the dorm leaders for their morning reports, and did an outstanding job keeping the school government running smoothly.

Chip is one of the most confirmed Yankee politicians on campus. In the three years he has been a day student, although you won’t hear him admit it within earshot of his teachers, he has never taken a book home. He is an avid reader, and also a great believer in the great Cardigan bull session.

Whenever women are on campus you can guess "Romeo” is there, or will at least know about it. John is the "turned up collar and engineer boots man” of Cardigan. He is well liked, a high ranking government official!!!, and one of Cardigan’s high society elite.

If you hear the cracking of a tree and the mighty call of timber, you know it’s George playing the part of lumberjack with his double bitted ax. Perhaps autos are an even greater love, and he has many tales about his racing exploits away from Cardigan. George is also one of our more accomplished guitarists, but he has to perfect his movement before he can compare with Elvis.

One of Mr. Brayman’s rugged woodsmen, you might spot him crawling out of the bark of some tall pine tree! In the spring he often resembled a duck. Whenever around water he managed to get wet. John’s famous motto is "And this is God’s country” . Thanks for the excellent job in the dining room, John. We all put on weight with the help of your excellent management.

Blaze (Senior Biographies) 9, Library Committee 9, Host Committee 9, Fire Commissioner 9, Baseball (Manager) 9, Tennis 8 and 9, Skiing 8 and 9, Waterfront 8.
Dave was a baseball manager this year, and was often seen working on the swampy baseball diamond. In the past he has gone out for tennis and waterfront. Dave is an avid boating fan, and he also likes to fool around with model airplanes and radios.

Roger is Cardigan’s Romeo. He is an out- of-door man also, enjoys Forestry, and is one of "Uncle Bobby’s Boys” . Roger is an old-fashioned "down easter” . He’s the "Vaseline kid” and detests haircuts in any form.

Jay was continually on the spot to help this year’s ski team. As the assistant head of the dining room, he was just as steady and dependable. Jay was one of Cardigan’s chain saw boys. He was always willing to help and full of ideas when they were needed.

It was a rarity to find John drifting about campus without his coat and tie. During activities, however, his dress was just as identifying. He then wore a leather jacket and engineer boots when they were anywhere near in season. John’s room always had a good supply of food on hand. That’s why he worked so hard to get room study!

first one. Well liked and popular, he was elected president of the senior class. A skillful participant on varsity teams, he is long and lanky and is considered Cardigan’s rubber man! He is a good student and is Deerfield bound.

If you want to be brought up to date on a recent happening, world, national, or campus, just drop in on Nick and listen and learn why he is known as the most well informed man about campus. He is also one of Cardigan’s handymen and can often be found doing a favor for someone in the woodshop or in the basement of Brewster. His good citizenship was rewarded, as he enjoyed J.A.C. privileges his senior year.

When one enters Tim ’s room he is most of the time met with the sound of jazz, probably being played just a little too loud. During his senior year he might be found sitting at his desk slaving over algebra, or thumping a baseball into his glove and muttering about the weather outside. By the way, if you should ask to have him turn the volume of his sounds down, he’d probably say, "Man, stereo has to be loud.”

This fall Alan showed a good deal of enthusiasm and skill on the lake upon his brightly sailed sailfish. He is at home in all of the waterfront craft, and few other things drag him away from the company of his Brewster lodged phonograph, and the bull sessions in his room. "Parlez vous Francjais, Monsieur?”

Cardigan may not have a P.A. system on campus, but all you have to do is tell Bill. If you’re ever needing information about Washington State, ask Bill, one of its newer residents. Tell us. Bill, are all those stories you tell true?

Whenever we heard the drone of a high pitched engine on campus, we could guess that Nick was flying one of his prize models, or watching someone else pursue the pastime. Although some of his tales seem a bit tall and far fetched, they make good listening and he usually rounds up an audience. A room study and J.A.C. student, he was one of the most respected members of the senior class.

Rumsey was a newcomer this year. Almost immediately Rumsey made a hit with everyone here, and was shortly one of the "ole” crowd. He was the Senior Class Secretary and an excellent student. His famous quip, "Duh . . . .”

BREWSTER HALL As you go through the gate at Cardigan Mountain School you obviously will notice the magnificent structure of Brewster Hail, with its gorgeous green lawns and the mellow ivy clinging to the weathered brick. Brewster Hall is blessed with some of the more prominent residents at Cardigan.
Brewster is graced with one of the more luxurious lounges situated in its basement. It is also fortunate to have a kitchen available to the Brewster student body.
Some of the most famous sayings around the dorm which might be heard at different times throughout the day were, "Who was moving furniture around at 6 o’clock this morning.?” ; "My gosh, I forgot to send out my laundry!” ; "Whose — alarm clock went off at 4:30 this morning.?” Other repeated quips were, "Whad- dia mean the one minute bell for lights out.” ; "Mr. W. is inspecting this Sunday, I’ll never pass.” , or every Monday night the remark, "O.K. everyone quiet. Dorm meeting come to order.”

Certainly Clark Morgan is the best dorm. Anyone knows that. Of course the selected few that get into Clark Morgan feel lucky to be a part of this great dorm. All this of course is common knowledge.
One of the reasons that it is the best dorm is that it has the best location. It has an ideal view from all points of the compass. To the West there is the quaint church steeple and the hills along the Connecticut Valley. To the South we view the Pinnacle and Cotting
CLARK MORGAN HALL
ic
Athletic Field. To the East is Mount Cardigan and to the North is the front lawn and entrance to school, where much of the evening activity takes place.
We selected individuals that live in Clark Morgan do not have to get dressed and go outside every morning when the temperature is down around zero, in order to get our breakfast.
Clark Morgan has some top notch faculty members and student leaders. Mr. and Mrs. Linn, being the heads of the dorms are tops. We also have the Larys who do just as good a job keeping C. M. the outstanding dorm on campus. These two faculty families also have some of the best student leaders. Sandy Harris was our dorm leader who with Jim Hinman and Peter Weeks handled the second floor, and Doc Rubert handled the third floor all by himself.
C. M. has a nice new common room with new carpeting and furniture. This common living room serves more than one purpose. It is not just a place to play games such as chess, checkers, or cards; or read the Post magazines that the dorm gets every week. It also is a place where dorm meetings are held every Monday night. Every other Monday the boys stay after the meeting to enjoy a dorm party which is planned by a rotating refreshment committee.
The Linns each term give a special party to the boys who go up in every subject in one term. The boys get to eat fried chicken with "fixins” and apple pie for dessert.
To put it in a nutshell, the boys of Clark Morgan feel they have by far the best dormitory on campus.

HINMAN HALL"What a year. Yeah boy, living in Hinman sure did
make this year a success for me. In a way I ’m sorry chat I ’m leaving Hinman now. Parties, good leaders, good kids, Hinman has all these and more. Yes, I guess Hinman is just about tops at Cardigan. Look at these guys from other dorms, always coming over to Hinman. Yeah, they’re just jealous.”
"I sure envy the boys that live in Hinman next year. There’s going to be the common room then. Yeah, Hin- man’s just too good I guess, what with Mr. Thompson using his ability as head boss and Ed Ball as dorm leader.”
"Yes, you can always tell a Hinman boy when you see one, they’re always smiling and clean looking.”
"Mrs. Minnier and Mrs. Thompson are always throwing good floor parties for us. Banana splits and the like.”
"Well, I ’m going home now. I ’ll see you next year in the best dorm.”

Cardigan’s football team worked hard to produce a three won, three lost season this year. With six new men in the starting lineup and the entire starting back- field having been graduated in ’59, Coach Thompson had a big job in squaring away a team.
We returned to school later than many of our opponents, but the season started quickly as soon as we arrived. Uniforms were passed out, and calisthenics, tackling, blocking, and body contact soon followed. Then with sore unused muscles we began to learn our plays, practice dry runs, and scrimmage. Before our first game Sandy Harris and Ed Ball were elected cocaptains by the squad.
Our first game was with Proctor and Jim Hinman’s passing and Willet Cobb’s receiving led us to our first victory behind some solid teamwork and defensive play. The score was 14-6. The only injury of the season came in this game. Tony Harris broke a bone in his leg and was out for the season. He walked from the field, however, and even climbed Mount Black before it bothered him enough to have an x-ray. He was lucky and didn’t need a cast.
We lost our next two games to V. A. and Hanover, but in both games only fourteen points were scored against us. At Vermont Cobb blocked a kick and Ed Ball, a tackle, grabbed the ball still in the air and scored. The scores of these games were 8-6 and 6-0 respectively.
In Cardigan’s first home game against an undefeated, untied Claremont team we won 14-8. The starting backfield of Hinman, Rafferty, Jenks, and Irwin worked well with ends Cobb and Suitor to spark our offense.
Our final loss was our last away game at Newport on a messy field. One of their scores came on a blocked punt and the game was closer than the 14-0 score might suggest.
We won our final game at home to remain undefeated on Cotting Field. New Hampton was our opponent and the score at the end of the game was 20-8. The boys in the offensive and defensive units that made this very respectable season possible included, in addition to those mentioned above, Wurster, Hamilton, de- Mare, Cheney, Waterman, H. Miller, Elliot, and Tony Harris.

The hockey team, coached this year by Mr. Noldt and Mr. Wexler, held its first meeting on November 30th. There was a rather small turn out, but we had a number of boys with experience and what appeared to be a strong team.
Early in the season, when the ice was at its best, the hockey boards were lugged into place. The rink was readied and maintained by our able managers Lew Knudson, and John Miller.
Practice sessions went well. Jenks, Irwin, and Weeks worked well together, and some rousing games within our ranks were held throughout the season. Goalies during these sessions were Sandy Harris, and Jim or Mike White. Sandy Harris was elected team captain at the beginning of the season, and led us against our first opponent, Proctor Academy. We journeyed to their home ground on January 23rd. Jenks scored the first goal unassisted. Proctor retaliated by slamming home their first goal in the next period. Near the end of the third period they scored again to win the very close, hard fought contest.
Our next two games were with Holderness School, the first being played on our ice. They scored first, but Peter Wojtul tied the score in the first period. Following this, two goals by Jenks and one each by Peter Weeks and Jim Hinman put the game "on ice” figuratively. The return contest with the Holderness team was much closer. Tom Comey scored his first goal of the season, and close on his heels P. Weeks slammed another home. Dave Irwin’s spectacular playing helped us to win by a score of 2-1.
Following these games the snows descended fast and furious. Drifting snow on the lake made it difficult to keep the ice clear, and we shoveled snow furiously so that we might return to practice. Because of this storm and others that followed it before we could clear the ice, the final three games of the season had to be cancelled. Two were to have been with Vermont Academy. The other was our home game with Proctor. Although this was a disappointment to us all, we were all proud of the record the weather let us amass.

Front Row : Upson, O ’Conner, Barker, Christy, Caldwell, Fenn. Back Row : Mr. Leavitt, H amilton (C apta in ), Lincoln, M iller G., Rice, Davenport, Cobb, W urster, Sharrock (M an ager).
Winter was slow in coming this year, so naturally the Ski Team got off to a slow start. We didn’t have long to practice, but hard work and Mr. Leavitt’s fine coaching helped to make up for it.
We were weak in cross-country this season, but strong in jumping and the Alpine events, downhill and slalom.
The BEST ALL-ROUND SKIER award went to Tom Hamilton for the second consecutive year. He had stiff competition, however, from four of twelve other boys on the team. Tom was the I960 team captain, and Bruce Fenn was elected by the team to take over at the helm next year.
New additions to the slalom and downhill courses
at the Pinnacle aroused added interest from team members and those who hope to join them another year.
The results of our six meets are as follows:

A relatively green and inexperienced Cardigan team took the field at Woodstock Country School late in April for the first game of the ’60 season. Although there was a sprinkling of veterans, the whole squad was still unkinking after three weeks of practice interrupted pretty much by rain and wet fields. Wood- stock put up a good fight, but Jim Hinman’s blooming bat, which drove in six runs, was the telling story in an early season score of 15 to 8 in favor of the Green and White.
Proctor Academy came to Cardigan on Alumni weekend. Before a fine crowd we managed to squeak by Proctor 4 to 3. It was some good fielding on the part
of Tim Winship and Jack O’Connor that got us out of some tight situations.
On the following Saturday we entertained Kimball Union Academy on Cotting Field. In a game that was slowed up by a succession of bases on balls, our slightly better hitting, sparked by newcomer Bruce Fenn and veteran Dave Irwin, proved to be the margin in a 12 to8 victory.
It was a bad day at Black Rock when we traveled to Holderness. We were shooting for four straight victories. The Holderness players with their daring base running and well-executed bunting, threw us off completely. Even with Co-captain Duncan Jenks having a perfect day at the plate we could not stem the Holderness attack and they went on to win 12-4, and with this game went our thoughts of an undefeated season.
Two victories in rapid succession brought our season to a close. These two games proved to be the most thrilling of an abbreviated schedule of six games.
Behind the superlative one-hit pitching of Gib Suitor and some excellent defensive play on the part of Mike White and Peter Weeks the Cardigan squad notched its fourth victory 5 to 1.
Timely hitting by Co-captain Ed Ball and Jim Hinman’s ten strike-out pitching, were the highlights of the final game played at Kimball Union Academy. This game we really pulled out of the fire with a spine- tingling 7th inning rally that netted us a 7 to 6 win.
All good things must come to a close. We played the Faculty in a softball game on Green and White day and experience proved the victor over youth as the Faculty won 12 to 6.

Recreational Skiing got off to an enthusiastic start this year, even though the snow was slow in coming.
Every year Recreational Skiing offers a beginner a wonderful chance to learn how to ski, offers the budding novice an opportunity to continue, and offers all the chance to just plain ski. There are five groups of skills. When a student masters a group he proceeds to the next class. E group is beginners, and the A group contains the most advanced skiers who can, when they finish the program, work with other students as junior instructors.
This year for the first time badges were given to all skiers in C class and above, each time they advanced to a more skillful grouping. These were awarded in the dining room and could be sewed on ski parkas.
They seemed to help the competitive spirit between the classes.
There were two Green and White ski meets this winter. The Green team won the first of the two encounters and the White team took the final encounter. The teams were closely matched and the competition, which was among different skill groups, was well liked and a large success.
Again this year the ski holiday highlighted the winter season and this is described in the Special Events section.
Whether bouncing through high drifts or walking on grass the skiers thoroughly enjoyed themselves this winter.

SKATING
The sm all group Skating had this year had a great deal of enjoyable skating. There was quite a bit of snow this winter and many a moment was spent shoveling snow from the ice. However, the good skating made up for any backbreaking labor.
A lthough Mr. Brayman seldom dons a pair of skates he did a w onderful job helping us shovel snow! We got hooked into helping the hockey team take in the boards at the end of the year, but a little work never hurt anyone. W ell, I guess I ’ll hang up the blades until next

CAMPUS IMPROVEMENT
Five hardw orking boys, under the supervision of Mr. N oldt, undertook Campus Improvement this fall.
W hat does Cam pus Im provem ent do? W ell . . . some odd jobs, some of them real good ones. A few of these jobs were setting up the goal posts for the football season, lining the football field, and putting up the ski tow rope and pullies.
This year the shop attic had to be cleaned so C. I., as the activity is called, climbed to the attic. Everything classified as junk was dropped through the trap door, onto the floor below. A fter this fun, the less spectacular job of piling it outside to be carted away was started.
Lots of work and lots of fun made the activity periods this fall enjoyable ones.
Front Row : H all, Stowe, Mr. N oldt. Back Row : Ramus, W ojtul.
Tennis, a grow ing sport at Cardigan, was very well organized this fall. Thirteen boys were out for the activity. When some of us began to play we knew nothing about the game, but after the season was over we knew many a trick, both in backcourt and forecourt, to make our play more successful. Mr. W akely had a few of the boys that had some knowledge of the game, help the "first timers” .
Early in the fall it was quite warm, but it got quite nippy as the weeks passed. When tennis became difficult late in Novem ber, we joined forces at the Pinnacle to work on the new ski slope.
We had a lot of fun on the courts, and many of us waited our turn to challenge Mr. W akely to a set. As his game improved as fast as ours, they were really tough. Many thanks, Mr. Wakely, for the fine job you did supervising the growing sport of tennis.

Tennis this spring was very successful. After vacation the courts cleared quickly and the boys began playing.
As the season progressed Mr. Thom pson chose the best players to play against Proctor in our two matches. Although Cardigan lost both matches the score was relatively close in both of them. Rumsey Y oung, Mike Davenport, Buzz Pooler, Tom Comey, Jim Casselman, Jim Dill, Tom Hamilton, Bob Lincoln and Bill W urster made up this year’s team. Also, the boys on Tennis this spring would like to extend many thanks to Mr. Thompson and Mr. W akely for their fine leadership while teaching and helping them to learn more tennis.
Fall Cam pcraft started out with a group of enthusiastic boys. Bob W eber was chosen student m anager, and proved him self capable many times. Our able faculty leaders were Mr. H ulbert and Mr. Minnier.
Cam pcraft is an activity that a boy can follow throughout life, as its purpose is to teach the safety precautions necessary at all times when cam ping. The expert use of the ax, hatchet, and saw was learned by all us boys. It was also no little task to learn to m ark trails, and to follow them.
Everyone learned the proper site for a campfire, and how to build a small compact fire with plenty of heat for cooking. W hat boy doesn’t need to cook plenty of food if he is cam ping out!
W e all also learned how many steps we took in one hundred yards and then took a compass hike to a nearby hill.
Cam pcraft im proved C ardigan’s landscape by clearing brush on The Point in hopes of changing the position of the winter shelter. M ore cutting and burning took place at the Pinnacle where m ost of the school helped enlarge a new ski slope!
H ighlights this fall included two hikes up Cardigan, several shorter hikes, and two cookouts. W e completed the fall season with a feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction. F a l l C a m p c r a f t

CAMPCRAFT
Cam pcraft did not have a large group this spring but we have accomplished a number of things for so sm all a group. This spring we had an award system. A ll the boys in the school are classed as "G oofers” until they have done several things such as work with fire, rope, botany, axmanship, astronomy and tracking. A fter these things are completed the boy is called a "T ram p.” Then he has to pass a higher set of achievements and then is classed as a "R anger.”
W ork has also been done on a bridge near the W aterfront. First we went down to The Point to cut trees for the cross beams and for the main stringers. W e cut them in lengths that stretched across the bridge. The work was completed before the end of school.
This spring archery was another activity that was introduced to Cam pcraft and although we w ouldn’t like to be left in the woods with only a bow to defend us, it was fun and we learned a lot.
N ear the end of the year we cooked supper for the W aterfront boys who were on the Connecticut R iver on a canoe trip. W e met with them at the trip ’s destination for the cookout.

This fall Forestry had a good, but very busy season. Enough plots were vacated by graduating seniors last year, so that no new ones had to be cut.
Our main project was the construction of a "wilderness road” from the foot o f the hill beyond the Clancy house, to the lake. A lot of trees had to be felled, and a lot of stumps pulled from the ground. The tractor was used to level high spots and sawdust was used to fill low spots. The purpose o f this road is to provide an entrance to the lake, so that the tractor can clear the snow from the ice for skating and hockey. The road behind H opkins was difficult to keep clear because of drifts. The hill was also quite steep causing the plow laden vehicle trouble during its ascent.
Forestry also burned brush cut during Summer School. This little task warmed us on a number of brisk afternoons. Then there was a lot of cutting to be done on the new ski slope at the Pinnacle.
Mr. Brayman and Forestry did a great deal of w ork this fall, and had a great deal of fun doing it.

FORESTRY
This spring. Forestry has been felling some of the big pine trees, aside from their regular "p lo t” work. A group of about five have been cutting down the pines for use as lumber in floor-boarding the attics of the dormitories. The trees have been cut and sawed into 8 foot lengths with the school chain saw. Now we are going to attempt to haul the logs away with the tractor.
The boys who have been working on their p lots have been doing a fine job of cleaning out brush and undergrowth. iMany thanks to John R andall for his activity leadership.
Mr. Brayman and Mr. Minnier are the faculty leaders of Foresty and they have done an excellent job of governing our w orking habits.

T he fall session of W aterfront started with Mr. W ood explaining the very necessary regulations. This immediately preceded a full scale invasion of the pleasures of row-boating, canoeing, and sailing.
Unfortunately, the weather was often of a non-cooperative nature, as we experienced much rain and had but few good north sailing blows. This did not, however, dam pen our spirits, and several boys developed the skills necessary to com plete the various sailing tests.
The follow ing boys successfully completed the canoe test: Bobskill, Chase, Cowen, Dore, Easter, Evans, Hale, H opkins, Mack, MacLeod, Weeks, W estlund, and W ood.
Sailing tests were passed by four boys. Easter and W ood qualified as junior sailors, while Evans and Rubert were rated senior sailors.
Mr. W ood, Mr. Linn, and Mr. W exler did a very good job, helping the boys with their tests. Everyone extends their thanks to them, and we look forward to the day when the ice breaks next spring.

This season, as in many past. W aterfront was a great success. This spring, however, we had a new system to make W aterfront more educational and more fun. Under this new system each day everyone had a chance to work, go sailing or canoeing, or to be unscheduled and do whatever came to mind.
W aterfront wasn’t all play and no w ork because there were things to be cleaned up and above all we had to put in the dock. The work crew handled most of this. Putting in a dock is a harder job than one might think. First you have to fight to put the beast together and then piece by piece put it into the water. Y ou leave the dock for the night and come back the next afternoon to find half of yesterday’s unfinished work at the bottom of the lake.
Alm ost every year we take a canoe trip and this year thirteen of our twenty-five members went for an all day trip on the Connecticut River. Boy, was that fun! The report of the canoe trip can be found in the Special Events section. For most of the boys this was a new and exciting experience, but for the old fellows who had done it in the past, it was just as much fun as before. T hat was the highlight of the season, but there were a couple of other tidbits like, one sailboat, three canoes, and one rowboat tipped over!
W e have to thank for our fun Mr. W ood, who is in charge of the W aterfront, and his assistants who were Mr. W exler, Mr. Linn, and Mr. Lary.

This fall a group of seven plus Mr. Leavitt did quite a lot of work primarily clearing brush on the new slope at the pinnacle.
We started this fall by working on the out run at the ski jump. W e cleared brush and trees for better jumping. The slope behind Clancy’s was improved for recreational skiing, and some time was spent on the ski team’s cross country course, especially the section east of the tennis courts.
The Pinnacle remained our main project, and we helped organize other activities which joined us to help improve this new ski area. This work went rapidly after we were started, as many unknown lumber jacks attacked the trees with gusto. By the end of the fall activity program we felt that we had done a lot to make skiing at Cardigan more enjoyable.

SKI IMPROVEMENT
W ith the possibility of a new tow. Ski Improvement has been working on the Pinnacle taking out trees and stumps. T he trail we are cutting will meet the new slope that was cut last fall, and go on down to the road.
Mr. Leavitt decided that the tow could start at the trail that leads to the new slope. A feeder trail will come from the old ski slope so that the tow will serve both areas. This cutting and clearing should be finished by October.
There has been only one casualty this year. Jim Lawson cut his leg on a log vvhile dragging some brush to the fire. He was fit as a fiddle after four stitches.
Ski Improvement would like to thank Mr. H ulbert and his boys from Camp- craft for the few days they spent helping us on the pinnacle. Most of us are anxious to continue where we left off in the fall.

S P E C I A L E V E N T SVOL. Cardigan Mountain School Sept. 20,1959 - June 4,1960
BIG BROMLEY SCENE OF '60 SKI HOLIDAY
Feb. 23, ’60 — At 8:30 on M onday even in g dorm m eetings were held early, ski holiday was announced, and boys got their equ ipm en t ready for an early start after an early breakfast the next m orning. O ur destination was kept secret and there was m uch guessing as to our final destination. W hile traveling by bus there were many questions such as, “W here are we headed?”, “How m uch does it cost?”, “W h at’s this dollar for?”. Most of these questions were answered when we passed a Bromley sign beside the highway.
L unch was provided by the school a t the buses and for those who were exceptionally hungry, the dollar could be used for an added snack.
Snow conditions were qu ite good and the sum m it of the m ounta in was engulfed in a snow flurry when we arrived. It was cold enough to m ake the snow fast and the slopes were not crowded enough to make long waits at any of the lifts. A chair lift and num erous J Bars carried us tow ard the top. O ur all day tickets, which were given to us when we arrived, allowed us to use all of the lifts and slopes. T here were no serious accidents and weary bodies were the biggest com plaint as we rode tow ard cam pus on the buses. After a light lazy d in n er p repared by Clancy every boy in school h it the sack.
Cardigan Winter FrolicT h e Frolic was very nicely organized
by M r. N oldt, ou r faculty advisor, D uncan Jenks, s tudent dance chairm an, and Mr. Leavitt, our ski team coach. M r. Leavitt got some of the enthusiastic ski team m embers to give a jum ping exhibition on the school jum p to start the afternoon p ro gram.
T h e girls arrived between 3:00 and 3:30 to watch the team m embers jum p. A fterwards skating was planned , bu t due to a snow storm that dum ped six inches of fresh pow der over the countryside there was a movie, “M ardi Gras” starring Pat Boone instead.
A fter a buffet d in n er p repared by Clancy and his busy helpers, the girls were given a little time to relax and visit with
the faculty and students in the Clark M organ reception room . T h en w ith a short break for p rim ping and p retty ing the girls were escorted to the dance floor for more fun and thrills. W ith the auditorium decorated in the usual splendid fashion, and the tasty tasting refreshm ents to keep our energy from flagging, we all concluded the evening w ith enjoyable memories and tired feet!
Seniors Conquer Cannon
Pinkham Notch, Feb. 28 — C annon M ountain was the I960 prey of the seniors on their annual ski holiday. T h e class piled their skis, boots, and bodies, along w ith the o ther necessary equipm ent into a bus on the m orn ing of February 28th and headed no rth to find excellent conditions and clear weather. T h e slopes were no t crowded and there was little wait for the various lifts.
Inexperienced seniors rode the T-bars and skied the easier trails while the old pros took the m ore hair-raising routes in style. Those wise enough to buy tramway tickets tu rned ou t to have found the best deal for the energetic skier.
A fter a full day of fun, falls and frolic the seniors m et at the bus, slum ped wearily bu t contentedly in to their seats, and slum bered toward the less fortunate undergraduates.
Fa ll Awards BanquetT his year’s Fall Awards B anquet was
a big success. T h e meal was delicious and was lighted by candles. Tables were well arranged so that everyone could see the activity speakers at the head table. C hristmas decorations overhead, on the tables, and in the form of a huge Santa Claus in the center of the room, gave a festive air to the pre-vacation feast. Mrs. W akely, Mrs. N oldt, and m any student helpers deserve the credit for this. Steak with all the trim m ings was enjoyed by all.
A t the end of the meal each activity was
spoken about briefly by a student rep resentative. Bill W urster was the toastmaster and did a com m endable job w ith full stomach and all!
All of us ad journed to H inm an aud itorium where Mike D avenport, as student recreation director, was m aster of ceremonies at the awards assembly. H ighlights on the program were letters awarded to the football players tha t earned them, the Glee C lub under the direction of Mrs. M innier, and the band under the direction of Mr. Odell.

H averhill, Oct. 15, ’59 — M ountain Day has been an ann u a l holiday for three years now at C ardigan. M ount Black in N orth H averhill, New H am pshire was the objective of the en tire school on this year’s m ounta in holiday.
W e left school early on the m orn ing of O ctober 15th. A lthough it is trad itional to keep the date of the holiday a secret there were many rum ors and m any people who sixpposedly knew. Buses and p rivate cars transported us and we disem barked at a m akeshift park ing area beside the road, and began our half mile hike to our base cam p where groups would start up the m ountain , and where they would re tu rn to eat lunch after their conquest.
T h e countryside was very picturesque and m uch of M ount Black was covered
with p ine. A round noon the overcast sky broke, and we enjoyed sunshine and a p leasant view. T h ere were places near the sum m it w here we could leave the well m arked tra il and attack the g ran ite cliffs a few hu n d red feet from the sum m it.
O n the descent m any groups took d ifferent trails and M r. L eavitt’s m ara thon hikers took the scenic rou te and arrived at the base camp just as search parties were being organized! W e saved them some of the delicious lunch of ham burgers, hotdogs, fixins, m ilk and cake. T h e m eal was prepared by the C am pcraft boys w ith the help of M r. H u lb e rt and Mr. M innier.
T h is roving repo rte r reports tha t all re call a tru ly great time. Even he enjoyed it!
HALLOWEEN BONFIRE RED HOT SUCCESSC.M.S., Oct. 31 — W ere you afraid to come forth from your dorm itory abode on the Saturday n ight of O ctober 31, or were you one of the m isshapen figures dancing around our immense H allow een bonfire? T h is mysterious ritu a l took place east of C otting Field and those, hum an or o therwise, who braved the juicy weather, said they witnessed things they never knew existed.
T h e fire bu rned hot and brightly, and
com pletely consum ed a hanging dummy, placed above the fire to represen t our rival, Proctor, C ard igan’s nex t football opponent.
A fter the fire there were prizes given to the people w ith the five best costumes in the H inm an A uditorium . T hey were R. Young, G ilpatric, D ill, T hom pson, and K. Rafferty.
A movie preceded dorm parties which included games and refreshm ents.
Talent Scouts Co HomeAt C ardigan at one time or another
d u ring the year each dorm puts on w hat they th ink would be an enjoyable hour of en terta inm ent for the o ther boys and the staff. These perform ances are followed by the regular Saturday night movie. T he nam e given to these dram atics is T a le n t N ight.
T h is year H inm an H all was the first to show their ta len ted wonders. Actually the series of skits were very cleverly p u t together. O liver D rerup, T om Comey, and Scott Pulsifer were am ong the principal organizers for this show. T h e three skits were “Gunsm oke,” “T h e Arrival of T h e T hom pson’s Baby,” and “T h e N ight Before Christm as.” Also George M cClellan en terta ined the audience w ith songs and his gu itar playing. T h e good th ing to re
m em ber about H in m an ’s T a le n t N ight, is that the boys themselves d id the work w ith no help from faculty.
Brewster was the second dorm itory to give a presentation. W on’t the boys re m em ber those long vociferous practices? B ut d id n ’t it pay? T h e H.M.S. Pinafore was very enjoyable en te rta inm en t and was educational as well. M ike G ilpatric, Kevin Rafferty, Bodie Thom pson, and the rest of the dorm did exceptionally well in the m em orizing and singing of the ir parts.
Clark M organ came ou t after days of practice w ith a m instrel show which was very am using and en terta in ing . C harlie H all, Jim Casselman, and T o m H opkins d id a hysterical job, and were led by Mr. In terlocutor, A rt Cox.
WINTER BANQUET
AND AWARDS ASSEMBLYC.M.S., M arch 11 — C ard igan’s w inter b an q u e t was qu ite cleverly p u t together. T h e tables were arranged so tha t they all faced the head table which was a long, beau tifu lly decorated rectangle at the southwest end of the d in in g room.
Clancy’s m enu consisted of num erous steaks, peas, m ashed potatoes, an d ice cream. W e ate this delicious d in n er by candle light. Mrs. W akely and her am bitious helpers decorated the en tire d in ing room w ith snowflakes, a lifesize skier as a center piece, and ind iv idual decorations on all the tables.
Ed Ball was toastm aster and he in tro duced all of the student activity speakers, who told of their no rth lan d experiences over the w in ter activity period. These talks were qu ite in teresting and inform ative and the boys d id a good job w ith the speech m aking.
Shortly after the m eal we all m igrated to the auditorium , where Rumsey Young was m aster of ceremonies for the awards assembly. T h e masters in charge of the various activities spoke briefly and comm ended or aw arded those boys who had done well. M r. N old t aw arded letters to all of the Hockey team members, and ski team letters were aw arded by M r. Leavitt. M r. W akely gave awards to boys showing exceptional excellence in certain fields. T h e Jam es Cam pion T ro p h y was awarded to T om H am ilton this year. T h is was a new award. M r. Leavitt inform ed everyone th a t three boys were w ith in one p o in t of each other up u n til the last ski meet.
I t was a very enjoyable evening tha t was clim axed by some selections by the school band. An added trea t was the p rin ted w in ter edition of the C hronicle tha t was given to each person as he left.
DRAMATIC SEXTETB U L L E T IN — O n W ednesday afternoon the sixth grade Thespians presented a play en titled “M onkey Business” to the student body. No doub t one would have to go back to Dostoevski to find a better study of crime and punishm ent. T he action took place in the incorruptib le Judge P aquette ’s court room . Ed Mack played the p a rt of the m uch abused defendan t A ntonio G iovani L upini. Jack Kellam was the poker playing bailiff who m ain ta ined order am id disorder. Bobby Jam ison and T erry Baker did a splendid job as able and crafty attorneys, and Bobby Bobskill gave a convincing p erform ance as the long suffering plaintiff. T h e play was produced and directed by T erry Baker.
AQUATIC SEXTETELY, May 21 — Saturday, May 21, th irteen w aterfron t boys in six canoes, under the d irection of M r. Lary and Mr. Wex- ler, w ent on an all day canoe trip up the C onnecticut River.
Leaving soon after breakfast we p ro ceeded to Ely, Vt., a small town above H anover, where the great white fleet was soon launched. O ur destination was Cukoo Cove ten or twelve miles up river, where we were to m eet the C am pcraft boys who were cooking us d inner.
W e m ade very good time in the m o rn ing so when we stopped for lunch about noon at a small island we had gone almost two-thirds of the way. At this island there was one slight mishap. W hile landing, our famous C uban fisherman fell in. O ther clothes had been b rought for just this reason.
C.M.S., May 26 — For the second year in a row the G reen team trium phed over the W hite team on G reen and W hite Day. T h e score was very close and the victory wasn’t decided u n til the last event of the day.
T h e first event of the day was the relay race. T here were two races and the W hite team won the first one. However, the G reen came back and won the second race to almost tie the score of the W hite team, which was awarded an additional 3 points for having the fastest time. W in ners of the num erous afternoon events are listed below.
Cukoo Cove was reached about 1:20 and all of us had landed by 1:30, almost two and one-half hours ahead of time.
T h e fishermen then tu rn ed to w ith a will, in fact when some of us re tu rn ed from exploring M r. Lary said he had caught a rainbow trou t, bu t if he did, I never saw it.
Cam pcraft, u n d er the direction of M r. H u lbert and M r. M innier, arrived around 5:00 and soon after we ate.
T h en most of the boys ad journed to a big sand bank that had been found near by, and did some broad jum ps from it.
I t was soon time to go so the canoes were loaded on to the school truck and we re tu rn ed to school in tim e for the movie.
T h e trip was a great success w ith bu t one repercussion — “sun-burn.”

W ith full stomachs the en tire school w ent to C otting Field and partic ipated in a tug-of-war which decided the outcom e of the closely contested G reen and W hite Day contests. T h e G reen won all three pulls despite the weakness of the old ski tow rope which broke several times.
T h e day was w rapped up with a softball game between the varsity and the faculty. T h e faculty won 12-6, b u t they h ad n ’t been twelve event m en earlier in the day.

Clancy’s welcome lunch
Cardigan holds each year an eight week summer session. Informality, a multitude of outdoor activities, and the N ew England summertime make four hours of mental exercise a little more bearable six days a week.
After a morning of basic math and English skills, we hustle to Clancy’s lunch in the dining room. W ith a full stomach we relax, and snooze or read until activities begin at 2:30. After taking out the kinks at a session of calisthenics, the various activities begin, all under special
