Volume 25

Proctor Academy

Andover, New Hampshire

The class of one thousand nine hundred sixty-one takes pleasure

in dedicating this twenty-fifth edition of The Green Lantern to

Adelaide Trask MacKenzie

w h o has served as housemother in MacKenzie House for the last fifteen years.

A Foreword From The Headmaster

The Editors and the Faculty Advisor for the Green Lantern are likely to be

among the unsung heroes of any year. F e w people are aware of the fact that their

organization must be set up early in the year, that they make the arrangements for all the pictures in this year book, and that these pictures cover activities from Sep­

tember until June. They accomplish this difficult assignment with very little inter­

ference with either the class periods or the extra-curricular activities. Moreover, they conduct their affairs in a business-like manner. They have a budget of estimated expenditures, and with subscription charges and advertising stay within it. W e are

grateful to them for this well organized picture of the 1960-1961 school year.

The Class of 1961 has among its members the last boys to be enrolled in the

Liberal Course, and their graduation marks the end of an important phase of

Proctor's history. The class was the first to use the Holland Auditorium as Fresh­

men, and they have seen the ground broken for the new library and science build­

ing. Last fall after the long string of victories by the varsity football team had been

broken, I asked one of the class, w h o was on the team, h o w he felt about it, and he

said to m e : "Sir, this is the second varsity football game that w e have lost since 1 came here in

the fall of 1957.1 can't complain very much." During its years at Proctor, the class has faced swiftly rising academic standards,

and has responded to them courageously. M a y they make even better records in

college than they have here. Lyle H. Farrell

PROCTOR PLAYERS

O n Friday evening, February 10, in Holland Audi­

torium, the curtain went up on the Proctor Players' first

production of the year. "The Importance of Being Earn­est", by Oscar Wilde, was played before a packed house of Proctor students and their dates for the Winter Carni­

val. The three-act comedy was acclaimed by many as

one of the best yet at Proctor. The play took place in nineteenth century England,

and was centered about a humorous situation involving Mr. J. P. Worthing (played by Dan Davis) and Alger­

non Moncrieff (played by James Buckner). Both have

invented clever excuses to leave their respective homes and romance with their respective belles. Jack becomes

engaged to Givendolan (played by Mrs. Wright), de­spite the the interference of Lady Bracknell, her mother

(played by Mrs. Coolidge). Algy falls in love with Cecily

(played by Donna Crisp), despite the discouraging ef­

forts of her guardian, Miss Prism (played by San White). The situation becomes embarassing however,

when the women discover that the men have changed their names in order to please them. With the help of

Doctor Chausable (played by Jim Putnam), and some

new information disclosed by Miss Prism, the matter is settled and happiness again reigns supreme. Also excel­

lent in supporting roles were Lane (Jed Brummer),

Merriman (Peter Laderoutte), and the footman (Scott Hughs). The cast spent weeks of work and diligent rehearsal

in preparation for the presentation. Mr. Condon worked tirelessly and endlessly in directing the play to success.

At the final curtain, the cast presented a gift to Mr. Con­

don, and one also to Mr. Addy for his generous con­tribution in helping with the play.

^AM

WINTER CARNIVAL O n February 9, 1961, an annual revolution occurred at

Proctor. This was the biggest social event of the year, and for this, the students put down their books to let interests wander elsewhere (the opposite sex). Girls, the most pheno­menal creatures at Proctor, came all the way from Detroit and Canada just to take part in the biggest party weekend in the East. This is the Proctor Winter Carnival. For this, sculptures are carved out of piles of snow reaching twenty feet high. Slocum Hall is decorated, the kitchen prepares large amounts of especially good food, and many other preparations are made for this weekend of fun.

The Winter Carnival began as the busses rolled in from Boston with most of the girls. (Others had masters jjick them up; since they either got stranded at White River or Concord.) A buffet supper was served of foods the boys never imagined they would ever see at Proctor: lobster, crab, turkey, and other choice morsels. Following this supper, the Proctor Players presented "The Importance of Being Earnest". They had put many hours of hard work into this presentation, and it showed in their excellent perform­ance. This was the perfect beginning to a weekend of fun and enjoyment, for the play set the atmosphere for the com­ing weekend. After the play, there was a dance in Mr. Condon's room, and everyone fraternized and made new friends. At eleven-thirty, the boys left their dates only to meet them once again the next morning.

Saturday began with the boys and dates falling out of i their beds and trudging down to breakfast. But by ten o'clock, everyone seemed ready to go and once again awake.

In the morning there was a ski meet with Westmount, and the boys and dates had their choice of either watching the meet or free skiing. That day the Blackwater slopes actually looked like a ski resort. Proctor won the ski meet. After lunch, the participants of the weekend either skied on Sla­lom Hill or watched the hockey game. O n this day, Proctor played their arch rival, Holderness. (The outcome of this game is unimportant). About five-thirty, the girls retreated to their dorms to make ready for the big dance and the boys did the same.

Later, everyone congregated once again and had a de­licious dinner. (During the meal Mr. Sherman announced the time so that everyone could syncronize their watches to his.) The next event on the agenda was the biggest event of the whole weekend, the formal dance. The art committee had decorated Slocum Hall so well, that you could not rec­ognize it. During intermission the Glee Club sang and the Brier Patch Trio did likewise. Then came the crowning of the Queen, and San White's date was chosen as Queen. At exactly twelve-thirty, the boys bade their dates good night, and they themselves returned to the dorms. The next morn­ing some went skiing, others went skating. At eleven, the boys went to church; then everyone ate lunch; later tea at the Farrells' house and at three-o'clock, the girls boarded the busses.

N o w , the only thing that remains of this weekend is the reminiscent thoughts of all the fun, and the idea that there could never possibly be a weekend quite like this again.

VARSITY FOOTBALL This year's edition of the Proctor varsity football

team was built around the second unit of the undefeated team of 1959. Although not overpowering in size it was

fleet of foot and proved a good match for everyone of

its rivals, which few people expected.

The first game of the campaign saw the green pitted against Andover Academy. This was the team to beat

for last year's game had been a hard fought contest. The untried and somewhat green Proctor boys certainly

proved themselves as they handed Andover a 22 to o

defeat. In looking back, this particular game gave Proc­

tor confidence in an excellent defense and a strong of­fense. W e then met Brooks on a rather hot and humid

afternoon. The most noticeable aspect of this game was the 135 yards of penalties handed to the green. Even

though, we rolled easily over this opponent 12 to o. The

trip to Canada followed. T o many this was a good

show because of the team's dates, and the weekend was

brightened by an exciting game with Proctor coming

out ahead 24 to 6. U p to this point Proctor was not

flashy, but a team which ground all its yardage out

three to four yards at a time, with some exceptions. But

in the Fryeburg game Proctor showed its explosiveness

as it scored touchdowns on runs of 30, 40, and 50 yards.

This tended to demoralize a strong Fryeburg team who

had come to Proctor dead set to ruin our winning streak.

The final score showed Proctor coming out with a 30 to

6 win which was greatly due to our strong defensive line and backfield for Fryeburg was held to minus yards on the ground. Berwick, our next encounter, was a complete

success. San White and Bill Lerchen both ran for touch­

downs of about 40 yards in the early minutes of the first quarter. Proctor came out in the winning end of the

score. T w o of its backfield men were sent to the showers by Coach Wright.

The hardest fought game of the year followed against our arch rival Holderness. 'Twas inevitable that Proc­

tor had to lose sometime and it happened in this game. Everything went against us for right at the outset our

star fullback San White was hurt badly. Holderness

then got two quick touchdowns. But Proctor still showed its great spirit as its defensive corps lead by Captain Bill

Hajjar, N o r m Harris, and Dave Moore stopped the Hol­

derness attack several times within the Proctor 10 yard line. The final score was 12 to 8.

Next year's team will certainly miss all this year's

seniors, but confident they will start another undefeated streak helped by the able coaching of Mr. Wright and Mr. Condon.

J. V. FOOTBALL

Our Proctor J.V.'s started off the i960 season in fine style by defeating Laconia High School 20 to 6 but they

were soon checked by the Tilton Junior Varsity with

a 24 to 14 loss. W e came back however by beating the

team from Cardigan Mountain School. The next game

was with N e w Hampton Reserves who played a hard

game. The game following this was not one to be proud of as Holderness, our friends up the valley, came down

to beat us. After this game came much intensive drill

on blocking and tackling. Our next game was against Berwick Academy in Ber­

wick, Maine. W e won this game but we still weren't throwing blocks and tackling well, so back to the drills

we went, but with the benefit of a shiny new blocking

sled. Following this we had another game with N e w

Hampton in which we showed much improvement. The

N e w Hampton team played a hard game though they lost 56 to 0. The real test of the Proctor J.V.'s came with

the second game against Holderness. This game was,

without a doubt, the top game of the season. It was a hard fought game all the way. Rory Burke scored a

touchdown in the first quarter and Azle Ames lumbered

across for the extra points. Holderness scored in the last

quarter but was unable to gain any extra points. Thus

we won 8 to 6. This was our most important game of

the year and every boy played his best. All things con­

sidered, the J.V.'s had a good season and finished a better team than when they started in September.

The Third Team

W E S T M O U N T TRIP

O n Friday October 21 the football team climbed

aboard the bus heading them once again to Le Canada. Here Westmount was to be their hosts over the week­end. Let's take a look and see how the weekend turned

out. After leaving at 9:00, and stopping for lunch at Essex Junction, the flat lands of Canada began to loom ahead. Unlike last year the team arrived early, and had time for their annual work-out on the field that after­

noon before meeting their dates. After the workout as the bus headed for the high school the tension began to

mount, for here everyone was trying to answer the most

important question of the trip, "What will m y date be like?" The team arrived at the school at about 3:30 P. M .

and was greeted by curious faces peering from windows

and doors. They proceeded to store their equipment un­

til it would be put to good use the next morning. At the

gym each boy was introduced to his date, and now the

weekend was officially underway. From here what hap­pens is questionable. The boys split up and go to differ­

ent houses only to meet a little later at the many parties

which are held. After a Friday night rest the team meets

at the gym at 8:30 to prepare for the game. Here dates,

parties are forgotten and only one thought is in mind,

"Beat Westmount", which we did by an overwhelming

score of 24-7. After the game, once again the business at hand

was taken up, having fun, and this everyone did. After

the rounds of congratulations in the locker room every­one went their way once again, some leaving for a party

over at M.J.'s or some leaving to find fun such as the

McGill football game.

At dinner time everyone shows up for different parties

and then at the dance at the high school. After the dance

people go to different parties. The next morning, every­one staggers to the bus as it leaves from "Westmount".

A n d so once again it is good-by to Westmount for nother year.

THE VARSITY SKI TEAM

This year thirty boys signed up for the ski team. Out of these thirty boys ten of the best skiers were chosen to represent Proctor Academy by being on the varsity ski team. The team started its season off even before the snow had

come by working on the 23 meter jump and managed to change it into a 30 meter in three weeks. Besides working on the jump they also had work-outs to condition them­selves for skiing itself.

Four days after vacation the varsity ski team started its season with a meet against Vermont Academy. Even though the term tried hard they couldn't make up for the three extra weeks of skiing that Vermont Academy had had.

Four days later on January 11 the team took on the Dartmouth and U.N.H. Freshmen. Even though there was a great difference in age the team managed to overcome the U.N.H. Freshmen. The Dartmouth Freshmen took the lead. Then came the Lakes Regions Meet with eleven schools

competing. The boys of the school showed excellent spirit in helping to put on the meet on our own slopes. At the end Proctor placed third with Holderness second and Kim­

ball Union a tight first. O n February 11 Westmount came down from way up

in Canada, and competed against the varsity team. But with skill and the right wax, the varsity team managed to

take a victory for themselves. Following immediately afterwards on February 15, the

varsity team engaged themselves in battle with N e w Hamp­ton and Tilton on our own slopes, and again with the su­perior skill and cunningness which the team had used formerly, N e w Hampton and Tilton were toppled from

their high perch.

Then on March fourth and fifth the varsity team, now cut down to eight men, stumbled up to Middlebury for the Interscholastics. This was the big meet of the season in which fifteen schools competed. Here the invincible team from Proctor Academy didn't appear as invincible as they had hoped, but still they did a good job with what they had. At the end of the meet the boys pulled in with an eight place compared to last year's third.

After this slight set back the boys with their coach made the long journey into the wilderness of Canada and com­peted against Canadian high schools and Lyndon High School from Vermont. Here the team showed their great, previously hidden, team spirit, and with the help of the formidable captain, Ervin Nelson, managed to defeat West-mount, Ottawa Tech., St. Agathe, Beaconsfield, St. Pats, Loyola and Glebe. Proctor placed fourth behind Lyndon High, L. C. C , and Sedberg. Also, during the year the team traveled to the many

U S E A S A races which took place within easy reach. O n February twenty-fifth two boys, Ervin Nelson and Philip Wilding-White, went to the Eastern championships. Ervin Nelson went to the Alpines at Canon Mt., Franconia, and Philip Wilding-White went to the nortics for cross-country at Berlin, N . H.

The team had a hard season this year because of the loss of two good skiers at graduation last year. But this year the team spirit was a great deal better and the boys, by the end of the year, learned how to ski a team race. Next year the team hopes to have an even greater amount of skiers on the team and is looking forward to a successful season.

The Ski Coaches The Ski Managers

J. V. SKI T EAM

This year the J.V. ski team tried something new. After a rigorous training period, we split into two

groups, A, B, and C teams. The C team was the first of

its kind as it was coached by three students, David Moore, Chris Wittaker, and Henry Gulick. The B

team was coached by Mr. Littlefield. Since this was the first year of competition for most

of us we learned to jump and run cross country. This

was quite an experience for everyone.

In most of our meets T. Gilbert and Boyle were among the top racers. Jim Boyle was involved in out

only freak accident of the year when he hit a car while

jumping at N e w Hampton. Everyone improved during the year, and althougr

we lost our meets with Cardigan and Holderness w(

did well in the meet against Westmount. This was :

varsity meet but many of the J.V.'s did better than som<

of the varsity. Donald Sturges

SKI SCHOOL

This year's ski school did many things to its credit.

Its purpose is to teach those people w h o are stupid

enough to want to learn how to ski, the basic and funda­

mental elements of the sport. It utilizes all the school's

available slopes for this. The boys all start out in the first

class which is for the beginners, and work their way up

to the sixth which is the highest. Once in the sixth, they begin to teach the boys in the lower classes some of the

material they have learned. This year, as in past years also, we were fortunate

enough to have Mr. Coolidge direct the school. H e was

able to have two teachers from Sunapee come twice a week to aid him in his arduous task of teaching us how

to ski. Not only were they good skiers, but they also

added color and humour to the whole operation.

The accomplishments of this program were clearly

shown at the end of the year when so many people were able easily to whiz down the Blackwater which is con­

sidered quite difficult. One of the other great accomp­

lishments of the ski school was the incredibly fast time that Slade Lander, one of its members, was able to run

the Gannett House Giant Slalom, a remarkable n.8

seconds! One of the truly great things about the ski school

is the trophy for the best improved skier, which this year went to Jason Lack. All in all, the Ski School was a great

success, and all its members feel that it was worth the long, cold, jerky, but convenient truck rides that we so

frequently enjoyed.

VARSITY HOCKEY

Despite the record of this year's varsity hockey team (1-12), I sincerely believe that we could have beaten any

team in the league. I'm not making excuses like "wait for next year," I'm just stating a fact. The team started

slowly and had a difficult time getting to work as a

team.

The team improved throughout the season. This is

proven by hard, cold facts. W e played Holderness the

first time and lost 4-1. W e played the second time only

to lose out in the last period, while being hindered by penalties. The Tilton game was nothing less than a

romp, with Tilton scoring four in the first period, and

went on to win 6 to o. Again we played Tilton w h o was unbeaten, untied, and even unscored upon in league play. The game was closely fought and with four

minutes left, Tilton squeezed one through the nets. The

Green skaters however didn't give up, and with 15 sec­

onds left pumped one in to lock the score. A fluke over­time spoiled the effort but you can see that they had im­proved.

The records might say differently but this year Proctor

had a hard fighting, battling, and good hockey team.

LACROSSE

Lacrosse made its debut this year as a varsity sport

with a game against Holderness, which we won by one

point. W e worked long and hard in preparation for this

game. Our basic training started with drills run in the

snow in March. It was then that we were introduced

to the "loop" which we were expected to run every day.

W h e n we discovered that the snow was gone from a

field near the Sport Haven Motel we decided to run

down there as a substitute for the loop. It was here that

we played our first intersquad scrimmage and learned

the basic plays under game conditions.

Our season was not a complete success. However, we did win our first and last games. The last game was

against N e w England College, a tough college team. As

a team we have done the best we knew how throughout the season and in the last game all our defeats were taken out on the N e w England team.

From the fine showing that has been made this year

we can be sure lacrosse will continue to be a number one sport at Proctor.

THE SAILING TEAM O n October 20, Proctor became one of the twelve char­

ter members of the N e w England Preparatory School Sail­

ing Association. As all the member schools decided to

schedule their meets in the spring and because our coach,

Mr. Coolidge is also in charge of the ski program, we con­

fined our fall activities to trail clearing and other miscel­

laneous projects which happened to benefit the ski program.

Our spring schedule opened with a warm-up meet at

Medford, Mass., where Sears Wullschleger reconfirmed the

fact that the "Turnabout Class" sailboat is not yet aware of

our great potential. W e shall not elaborate on the results

of the Nelson Bowl Regatta.

O n May 13 Commodore Nat Dodge and Dave Walters

and their crews went to Easthampton, Mass., where we de­

feated Williston and Loomis by a 2-1-0 score. Dodge and

Walters proved an excellent combination with Dodge dis­

playing superior team racing tactics while Walters continued

to move his boat to top scoring positions.

O n May twenty we entertained the Schools Sailing Club

on our lake. Dodge, Walters and Dave Cook were the win­

ning combination defeating Schools 4-2. One capsize and

several knock-downs made this one of our most exciting

meets.

W e took to the road again on May twenty-fifth to Marion,

Mass., where Tabor Academy outsailed us by a 2-4 score.

Our inability to pull this one out can be traced to our failure

to maintain the initiative during the important first phases

of each race. Dodge, Walters and Cook represented Proctor

in this meet.

O n May twenty-seventh, M.I.T. hosted the first

N.E.P.S.S.A. regatta. Each member school was represented

in two divisions. Dodge and Walters sailed for Proctor. Af­

ter many protests and eight races in the two divisions, Proc­

tor emerged in third place having defeated Mt. Hermon,

Commonwealth, Tabor, St. George's, Loomis, Portsmouth

Priory and Northfield. The Cheshire team sailed an almost

perfect series winning the regatta and Williston edged us

out of second place.

Next year we look forward to an expanded schedule with

a young but seasoned squad. Commodore-elect Wullschleger

will have plenty of talent to build from with Knapp, Cook,

Taylor, Burke and others returning.

'•"3)t#t& The J.V. Baseball Team

If you were to judge the J. V.'s on our rec­ord of only one win, your opinion of us might not be too high. A team of "has beens", and "never weres" you would label us. Well, this isn't true; we're not a team of "has beens", "never weres"; but a team of "are going to be". The Junior Varsity is a place where Proctor boys learn how to play ball, and in the Varsity they play it. W e learn how to hit, to field, to run, to win, and to

lose. But more important we learn how to be

a team, not nine players. N o one player can win or lose a game, no one player can retire the side; it takes three m e n to make a double play. T w o men to put a runner out, and even two men to strike a man out. For a club to win it has to try, and for it to lose it has to try less than the other team, or play a team better than they. We've played teams better than us.

Next year we might be on the J.V.'s again to learn more than we know now. But that's what it's for: to teach.

BASEBALL

The 1961 edition of the Proctor Academy varsity base­

ball team had its share of hard luck as well as compiling

a fair record. In spite of the final record, many ob­

servers agreed that this ball club could have been one of

Proctor's finest. Our initial contest was with our traditional rival

Holderness, our friends up the valley. Proctor led in the

early innings but some early season jitters in the field and on the mound paved the way for a Holderness

victory. Harris Shenker went the distance for the big

Green and absorbed the loss. Revenge came soon, how­

ever. After posting a 4-3 triumph over Fryeburg, this big team rolled all over our hapless friends from Hold­

erness to the tune of 23-0. Flanders, Davis, and Maclach-

lan set a torrid pace with the lumber while Savage

pitched a brilliant 2 hitter for the victory. The following week, Proctor rolled to one of its

greatest victories. The Big Green spoiled a spring week

end at N e w Hampton by soundly beating a top-rated N e w Hampton Club 11-7. Davis and Shenker, w h o had

a homer, batted Proctor to victory, while Shenker also

was superlative on the mound. Proctor rolled to its 4th straight victory when they de­

feated Berwick 11-5 on the Hilltoppers own field. Again,

it was Savage for the victory, but this time with some

great relief help from Schofield. Then the real troubles came. Proctor lost its last four

games and finished with a 4-5 won-lost record. T w o games were postponed because of rain. All of these

games were lost on miscues both afield and on the bases

but, otherwise, were well played. The big Proctor pitch­

ing staff was most effective in all of these games. The

team was composed largely of seniors and all of them

will be missed next year. They are, N o r m Schofield, James Maclachlan, Jay Reilly, Bill Lercher, D a n Davis,

San White, Capt. Chief Flanders, and Ken Savage.

VARSITY TENNIS The theme of this year's Varsity tennis team was ex­

perience. The team consisted of three freshmen, one sophomore, one junior and a senior. W e lost several players of last year's squad to Lacrosse and Baseball. It was probably one of the youngest teams in Proctor's history. W e played mostly against older competition. The only

two teams that we had a chance against were Tilton and Laconia. The older and more experienced competition made it rough on everyone. The most successful player of the season was Townsend Gilbert. Though only a freshman he won several of his matches against seniors and juniors. H e won his matches against Tilton, N e w Hampton and went to three sets against Laconia. Our Captain, Mike Burtt did an excellent job. H e is

probably the player with the most experience. Mike will be returning next year and should lend his efforts to a successful season. Sam Laundon was one of the strongest spots in the

lineup. H e played very well in the number three po­sition. Sam played as well as he could against older and more experienced opposition. Zander Smith was the number four man. H e is one

of the three freshmen on the team. By the end of the season Zander had gained much needed experience. Next vear should be a lot more successful.

As the only graduating senior and number five man for most of the season I had a hard time against better competition. In m y opinion next year we should have one of the better teams of the Spring sports season. Chris Saunders was our number six man. Chris

rounded out the freshmen trio. H e came close to win­ning several of his matches notably against Laconia, where he came out second best on the end of an 8-6 score. Dick Rapalyea played several varsity matches. His per­

formances show definite promise for next year. A m o n g other Junior Varsity players likely to make the squad will be Jed Brummer and Jim Smith. The whole team would like to thank Mr. Littlefield

for his excellent coaching and driving ability. Between physics and tennis, he gave us quite a few pointers. H e should have a successful team next year. W e would like to thank Mr. Wright for setting up the schedules and Charlie for preparing the early meals. W e did not have a winning team but still w e had a

good time out on the courts. In m y five years I have seen many tennis teams of varying ability. However, none of those teams have had the promise for the future that this 1961 Varsity tennis team has. It should be one of the best teams Proctor has ever had.

Ernest Wagley

J. V. TENNIS

Defeated often, victorious never, the J. V. Tennis

Team survived its 1961 season. At the beginning of our

spring practice, we were confronted with about twelve

eager, enthusiastic and inexperienced tennis players; but,

by the end of our season, we experienced every type

of situation one might encounter on the court. Sports­

manship showed up in every player which was certainly

an asset to the team and to Proctor. D u e to the amount

of players it was hard to get organized and off to our

matches, but everything seemed to turn out fine, except for the results of our matches.

Our first match came with Tilton. A sincere gentle­

man's match was played, but we were pushed to defeat.

More defeats by Holderness and other schools, but still good sportsmanship was displayed in every match.

L. Lichtenstein

GOLF

This year the golf team had ten scheduled games but

only played six. In these remaining games they won two

and lost four. Last year they only won one out of eight and the one against Colby Junior College. One victory

that will long be remembered is the one over Mr. Britton,

the coach. This was at the game of G.H.O.S.T. What

was the most amusing part about it is that the game was

Mr. Britton's idea. The team looks quite promising for next year for

there were onlv three seniors on the top ten. It con­

sisted of two freshmen, one sophomore, four juniors anc

three seniors. Each one has had his taste of victory, de­

feat, joys, and disapointments, all of which are needed tc

build the team's spirit. Although the season has prover

to be a rough one, the team has adapted to each new situation and has held its own. Many of the player:

have improved their game, which is always pleasing

Both the coaches and the team will agree in saying tha

this year was quite productive, not in victories, but ii

experience. Tom Williams

Proctor Academy June 3, 1961

Nothing passes so rapidly as Time. The year has come and gone quickly and graduation is here. With many of us old friendships will be broken and our days at Proctor will become only memories. It is an old story, repeated year after year.

Looking backward over the year we find many happy times and only a few sorrowful ones. It would be hard to reminisce this past year without recalling our sixteen straight victories and the last game (enough said). Hardly anyone will forget waking up early one winter morning to the sound of the fire siren and finding the fire just across the street. As everyone will remember it was quite a fire and who was that I saw breaking windows where there wasn't any fire. This year's Senior class has the distinction of being the last liberal class at Proctor. In the four years that we have been here we have seen many important changes. W e were one of the first to attend classes in the new Holland Memorial building and right now we are witnessing a new library-science building under con­struction. Our class is the largest ever that's been at Proctor and quite a few of the class have been here four years.

The year has been an eventful one for our class and for Proctor itself. W e have gained a great deal of experience through the class room and our student government positions.

With the thoughts of their kindness and helpfulness upmost in our minds, we thank the masters and their wives for all their unselfish aid in making our Senior year enjoyable and rewarding.
