T O T H E M E M B E R S O F T H E CLASS 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 am 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 we 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 know the graduates of another class so well as I know 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. You are versatile, have a great deal of talent of many kinds; you have good athletes, good speakers, actors, writers, singers. You have some excellent students, and some who have had a hard struggle. I know that we are going to be increasingly proud of you. D o a good job. Work hard, hold your heads up, and be proud of the record you have made here.

Football

The 1952 season was one of achievements and one of disappointments. The squad was willing and ambitious and had able coaching from Messrs. Wright, Farrell, and Camp. Each game produced many good plays, even though the results were sometimes disappoint­

ing. The season opened against Vermont Acad­

emy J.V.'s at Saxtons River. As is usual in the first game of the season, there were many errors of omission and many penalties. Our defense showed up well, as Vermont could put on only one sustained march during the game, that being in the second half when 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 game 13-0. The team played Kents Hill for the second

game, a rough and tough game which we 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.

The third game, against N e w Hampton J.V.'s here at Proctor, marked the achieve­ment of a good offense, for we scored four touchdowns and four points after touchdowns, while holding N e w Hampton to 13 points. Gilbert's and Henderson's hard running gave us many yards, and our defense continued to be sturdy and solid.

Our annual game 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. West-mount 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 man 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 man and scored on a 95 yard run, the longest

of the season. The first half ended with the score 5-0 in favor of Proctor. (A touchdown counts 5 points under Canadian rules.) The 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. The boys had a wonderful time on the trip and were royally entertained by our Canadian friends, but we hope to show them some real Ameri­can football the next time we meet them. The team bounced back the next week

against Tilton J.V.'s, when we won an excit­ing 13-12 victory. Tilton scored first, 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 down a pass in the end zone for their extra point, the game 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 many 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. The 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 game 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 game 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.

VARSITY SKI TEAM

Sk nng The ski season started off with a bang with

the majority of the team making a scenic trip to Canada. The 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.

The 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 Fresh­men had such excellent skiers as Osgood, who won three events, and Riisnaes, a Norwegian exchange student, who won the fourth event, the jump. (He later went on to win jumping contests against the best of the American skiers.) The 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. The Proctor squad next went to Saxtons

River for a three way meet with Vermont Academy and the Middlebury Freshmen. The 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 El­bow came in first and second respectively.

The 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. The team score in this meet was excellent, and Proctor really pushed Lebanon for first place. 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, El­bow a fourth in the cross country, and Kittell won the slalom.

At the Tilton carnival again the team took a second place, behind Kimball Union Acad­emy, who later won the Interscholastic Cham­pionships. The 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.

The 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.

The 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. The slalom proved to be our downfall, where our best was Gilbert's fourth.

The B team had a varied schedule and has done well this year. The 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 Wood­stock Country School, one at Woodstock and one at Proctor. The B team won both of these meets.

The work of the B team is very important, as many 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 make a strong nucleus for future teams.

^Baseball The 1953 baseball season featured classy

fielding and heavy hitting on the part of both the Proctor team and its opponents. In terms of the won and lost record and the spirit shown every day, the season was highly successful.

Suffering from the first game jitters and completely outclassed in the pitching depart­ment, Proctor lost its first game to Clark 19-0. The 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 home game, we delighted the crowd by going into the ninth inning with a 6-3 lead — only to have Holderness tie the game up at six all. In the last of the 10th with one out, Capt. Putney drew a base on balls and Harry John­son, who had pitched all the way, unloaded a screaming triple to right field which scored Putney with the winning run. At Holderness a week later, insecure pitch­

ing and fielding led to an uphill fight for Proctor in order to overcome a six run deficit, tie the game 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, we lose talented and spirited competitors in Capt. Jesse Putney, Harry Johnson, Tip Gilbert, and Dain Patten. They provided the maturity and experienced ability to make a well balanced team. Captain elect Bob 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, Bob 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 Quimby 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. Many 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.

Tennis The Tennis Team had a successful season

this year, a record of 7 out of 8 wins. The only loss was to Vermont Academy by a score of 6-1. W e did, however, beat Vermont in our first match of the season by a score of 6-3. Last year we ruined their undefeated season and this year they did the same to us. Our loss to Vermont was our only defeat in two years. Our other matches were with Holderness,

w h o m we snowed under 8-1; K. U. A. w h o m we defeated 5-1; and Tilton who was shut out with a score of 9-0. W e are sorry to say that our other matches were rained out.

The highlight of our season was the trip to Exeter to play in the Interscholastics. W e left school on Friday morning, May 16th. Our hopes were not dimmed by the poor weather. Almost as soon as we got there we swung into action. Unfortunately we did not meet with much success. Dick Heckel, Jay Cooke, and Skip Stewart fell prey to the foe in that order. That left only Captain John Wright who emerged from the courts victor in the first round.

Then all of us, including Mr. Fisher and Mr. 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 won a doubles match by default we 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 men on the tennis team three are leaving: Captain Wright, Heckel and Stewart. The 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.

The J. V.'s are losing four Seniors: Elbow, Kittell, Fowler and Root. Fortunately two good men 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 Mr. Fisher, the Varsity coach. In spite of his injured leg he was a great help to the team. Our thanks go, too, to Mr. Hatt who had charge of the J. V.'s.

Sailing

The sailors have been very active this year with many projects as well as sailing. A new boat house has been built, a new dock set up and a new raft. The 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. Owen, 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. The J. V. men were: Anthony Perot, Bob Lindquist, Stan Bullard and Herbert Munsey. Our first meet was on October 4th when

we 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 May 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 past five Dartmouth and Proctor have had

three sailing meets. The 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 May 3rd by a score of 21-16; on May 9th by 54-47; and on May 20th by 34-21. The J. V.'s were successful on May 13th

defeating Cardigan Mt. School by a score of 52-33 on home waters. Honors for the day went to Skippers Perot, Lindquist and Bul­lard. It is gratifying that we have three vet­eran Freshmen and two Sophomores to start next season with. Next year the sailors will miss the two

Seniors — Commodore Haeberle and Hamil­ton. Mr. Coolidge has expressed our feeling about losing Manager Fourcher by saying: "I consider myself well broken in now but we shall miss Bruce." However, Coron is taking over the management of sailing and we are looking forward to his doing a fine job. The squad has appreciated the faithful work done by Bob McFadden as "bosun" of the launch. For the future for the sailing squad Mr.

Coolidge hopes that, within the next three years, a Sailing Club House will be built as an addition to the Boat House.
