DEDICATION

The Class of 1957 dedicates this edition of

The Green Lantern to Mr. Spencer V. Wright

dA Foreword from the Headmaster, Mr Farrell The school year 1956-1957, and the Class of 1957 should stay in our memories for a variety of reasons. First, of course, because of the successful fund raising campaign which has enabled us to build the classrooms and auditorium which are under construction now. Unless w e run into some unforeseen bad luck, this building will be in use w h e n w e reopen in September. I a m sorry that the Class of 1957 will not have the opportunity to use these new facilities, particularly because the drive took place during their last year, and the members of the class were deeply and genuinely concerned with the success of the campaign. I would like to extend to the class a most cordial invitation to attend the dedication ceremonies next fall.

Our trophy shelves are crowded with evidences of the athletic prowess of the Class of 1957.

W e hold two of the n e w plaques of the Lake Regions Independent Schools League, the hockey championship w o n last winter, and the golf championship w o n M a y 25th at the tournament on our h o m e course, the Lake Sunapee Country Club. W e also hold the Proctor-Westmount football trophy, and the Proctor-Holderness football trophy. Of course the seniors did not gain these victories alone, they had m u c h help from stalwart undergraduates, but nevertheless, the key players, and the leadership came from the seniors.

W e have one more request to make of the Class of 1957. Placement in college was not easy this year, and will be increasingly difficult in the years ahead. If each senior will do his best to m a k e an excellent record in college he will be of real help to the boys w h o will follow him. If w e can point you out as an example of what a Proctor boy can do, the next class will have that m u c h more chance of being selected from the ever growing pile of applications.

Football O n September 19, 25 boys returned to school for football camp. Under the able coaching of M r . Wright and Mr. John C a m p and with the efficient leadership of Captain Harris the boys readied themselves for the first game. At the end of the training period the prospects looked good, as both the forward wall and backfield was experienced and fast.

T h efirstgame was with Vermont Academy J.V.'s at Saxtons River. W e expected a hard game, but on the third play Stewart threw a forward pass to W o o d s , w h o ran 60 yards for a touchdown. Proctor marched again in the second quarter, Stewart going 10 yards for the second touchdown. T h e Big Green kept up its record in the last two quarters, with Allen carrying the ball over from the 2 yard line in the third quarter, and Stewart again passing, this time to Davenport for a touchd o w n in the fourth. T h e final score was 25-0.

O n Home-coming week-end the scheduled game with K.U.A. J.V.'s was cancelled. After hurry-up arrangements w e managed to get a game with N e w Hampton J.V.'s. Before a large crowd of alumni Gilijiore carried the opening kick-off back to the Proctor 45 yard line, and on the next play Stewart went the rest of the way to a touchdown on an end run.

Proctor was off and running. During the game, Davis, Bunim, Bowen, and Scott all scored, and W e l d kicked the points after touchdown, thefirsttime infiveyears w e have had a good kicker.

O n October 16 the team went to Andover, Mass., to play undefeated and unscored-on Brooks School. The team was up for this one, and after a badfirsthalf got together to produce the lone score of the game on a four yard end run by Stewart. The Proctor line was very effective, as Brooks lost the ball 12 times on fumbles.

Proctor then journeyed to Montreal to visit our good Canadian friends at Westmount High School. Each year the g a m e is looked forward to by the Proctor boys for the wonderful hospitality they receive there. T h e team was warned of the Canadians' great speed, and it showed as they drove to the Proctor 5 yard

line in the opening minutes of play, but they lost the ball on a fumble. Proctor returned strong with Gilmore carrying for the first touchdown. Proctor added two points by tackling a Westmount player in the end zone and six more points w h e n Sandy W e l d intercepted a pass and scored. B u n i m passed to Butler for the third score, and Proctor led at half time 20-0. In the third quarter Gilmore scored for the second time and ended Proctor scoring.

The rest of the half was played by the second string players, and for thefirsttime all the Proctor boys played in the game. Final score: Proctor 26, Westmount 13.

O n October 27 Proctor lost a rugged g a m e to Brewster Academy. Proctor played hard throughout the game but was not able to cope with Brewster's older and more experienced players. Behind 20-0 in the second half, Proctor rallied and scored two touchdowns, one on a reverse with W o o d s carrying, and the other on a pass from Bunim to Laundon.

The game ended 26-13 for Brewster.

O n November 3 Proctor journeyed to Plymouth to play its arch-rival, Holderness. Proctor started off well with Stewart carrying 15 yards for a touchdown, which was called back because of clipping. Holderness then scored two touchdowns and led 13-0 at the half. In the second half Stewart returned a Holderness kick-off to the Holderness 20 yard line and then passed to Rulon-Miller for ourfirsttouchdown. Weld converted with a place kick. A few minutes later Bunim passed to Harris for a touchdown and again W e l d kicked the extra point. Proctor led 14-13. During the remainder of the game Proctor controlled the balL Bunim had a touchdown called back in the last ten seconds of the game. The score remained 14-13, and thus ended one of the best seasons in Proctor's gridiron history.

Next year w e shall lose our seniors: Captain Harris, Weld, Gilmore, Rulon-Miller, Sawyer, Cramer, Harjes, Forsberg, and Searles, but w e are looking forward to a successful team under the leadership of Captain Stewart.

T h e J.V. and Reserve Teams both had successful seasons. Mr. Hatt and Mr. Peter C a m p coached well as the scores below show.

In the third year of hockey at Proctor, our team won the hockey trophy for the Lakes Region Preparatory School League against teams that have been playing hockey for years. The team played eleven games, winning eight, tying one and losing only two.

In the first game on January 9th we met Tilton and w o n a very close game 2-1. In the second game with Tilton on January 26th both teams played a vastly improved game of hockey and w e w o n that one 4-3.

W e met Hanover High twice this year.

In thefirstgame w e w o n 3-2 but in the second Hanover w o n in a very hard played game, 2-1. Thefirstgame with Brewster was tied at the end of the game, 1-1, and w e played one overtime but did not break the tie. The second game was cancelled because of bad weather. It was our only game that was cancelled.

Next we played Holderness and won 1-0. In the second game we played much better and won easily, 5-1.

This year for the second time we played the J.V.'s from St. Paul's. It was a very close game. W e were ahead 3-0 after two periods, but lost the game, 4-3. O n February 20th w e played Vermont Academy and w o n easily. In the last game of the year w e played the K.U.A. J.V.'s and defeated them handily, 3-1.

The high scorers of the season were Captain Rulon-Miller and Peter Clark,

both of w h o m w e shall miss next year.

Also leaving are Vern Harris, second line center; Dick Cramer,firstdefence; Bob Flint, second line wing; and Dave Bliss, second defence. One of the most notable players on the team was Toby Allen, our goalie w h o made 114 saves and, in four games, did not let the puck by him once. Next year's Captain is John Laundon w h o playedfirststring center this year. H e will be taking over the captaincy from Sumner Rulon-Miller w h o has held the position for the past three years.

The J.V. team had a very good season.

For thefirsttime they had a coach of their own, Mr. Gill from Milton, N. H. This meant that Mr. Wright could spend more time with the Varsity and the J.V.'s also got plenty of good coaching. The J.V. team played 8 games and, although they w o n only two of them, the scores were all close and the boys played well.

The team enjoyed the season under its capable Captain, Mike Cook. With graduation opening some places on the Varsity there will be an opportunity for many of this year's J.V.'s to play varsity hockey next year.

Both squads had many boys w h o showed a lot of "get-up and go." It looks as though hockey is here to stay at Proctor. Both coaches and all the players wish to thank John Rivers and his "gang" w h o have erected and maintained the rink, frequently under the most adverse of N. H. winter weather conditions.

Ski Team T h e Ski T e a m this year was very n e w except for two boys, Bob Foster and Captain T o m Martin.

Training started in November. This training program consisted mostly of running.

W h e n a little snow had fallen the team started running cross country on skis. T h e n e w boys on the team had never been on cross country skis, but, they proceeded to train. At first the prospects for the coming season didn't seem too hopeful.

T h efirstmeet was with Vermont Academy.

It started in the early morning with downhill in which Proctor placed second and third.

Following the downhill there was slalom in which Proctor took thefirstfour places. Proctor was leading by six points until jumping and cross-country in which Vermont took the lead by a large margin. A m o n g the schools competed against were Lebanon, N e w H a m p ton, Holderness, U.N.H. Freshmen, Hanover, Stevens, Littleton, Woodstock, Phillips An-

dover, K.U.A., Putney and Northwood.

T h e most important meet of the year of course was the interscholastics at Middlebury, Vermont. T h e team arrived on Thursday night and ran cross-country the following day, Friday. Although the team lost cross-country it showed a great deal of improvement. T h e first two places on our team were taken by Jeff Reynolds and David Scott w h o were new boys.

O n Saturday there was downhill, slalom, and jumping. Downhill was Proctor's strongest event with slalom to follow. Unfortunately Proctor placed eighth out of twelve schools.

The team came back defeated in one respect but not in the other. This was a n e w team and not only new, it was a team of spirit that worked for every point it got, and last of all it was, and still is, a team of ever increasing improvement. As far as the future of the team goes there is a lot to look forward to because it has the spirit, courage, and will to win.

11957 This year Proctor entered the newly formed Lakes Region Baseball League consisting of six teams. The majority of these teams consisted of more experienced players than those w e had previously been accustomed to playing and this is probably the reason why w e did not have a very successful season as far as wonlost record is concerned. For some reason during most of the games w e would lose track of time and although w e almost always gave the opposing team a good fight at the end, it was often times too late.

W e split our two games with Holderness, but because Holderness had scored more runs during the two encounters, they w o n the Jack C a m p baseball plaque for the best performance between the two schools.

Victory was ours also against Kimball Union Academy. Kimball Union was the only Junior Varsity team played by the Varsity.

The rest of our games were played against varsity squads from N e w Hampton, Tilton, Fryeburg and Brewster Academies with a resulting overall score of two victories and nine losses. These results are deceiving, however, because not many of our games were lost by any great amount. Our team playedfineball and considering that this was our first year in the League, a low won-lost record is not so important as is the quality of

ball played.

Our last game, against Brewster Academy was played on graduation day. It was significant because if Brewster w o n this game she could take possession of the Lakes Region League baseball plaque.

W e looked unusually good in the first innings of the game, but fell down in one inning which gave Brewster a good lead and eventually the game and the plaque.

Thefinalscore was nine to four.

This year's varsity squad consisted primarily of seniors. All the infield was lost except for Woods, the catcher. Other varsity members w h o will play next year are pitchers Arthur Crosbie and John Laundon and outfielders N o r m Cooper and Danny Lincoln. A lot of credit must be given to Jack Camp, coach of the Varsity team and to Bill Gilmore, this year's Captain, for thefinejob they have done this year with the boys.

The Junior Varsity team, coached by Spence Wright, had a fair season, losing four games and winning three. They, too, stepped up a notch in competition and gave evidence of improved future teams.

Included in their schedule were Holderness, N e w Hampton, Tilton and Kimball Union.

The Reserves, under the tutelage of Peter Camp, scheduled three games and finished with a 2-1 record. A split with N e w Hampton and a victory over Holderness made for a successful season.

Tennis O n April 13th the Proctor Academy Varsity Tennis team played itsfirstmatch of the season, winning over Tilton 5-3.

The sun set before the two doubles teams had time tofinish.The team lost its next match to a very strong Holderness team 6-3. Both Coues and Nixon won their singles and Clark-Coues won a three set doubles match. Saturday, April 20th, the Proctor team played host to the N e w Hampton team and won 5-3. Clark, Neubauer and Sawyer won their singles while Clark-Coues and Newbauer-Sawyer won their doubles. A few days later the team journeyed to Vermont Academy and lost a very close match 5-4. Clark and Nixon both won their singles, and Weld-Nixon and Clark-Coues their doubles. Our next opponent, Kimball Union Academy, beat us 6-3. Nixon and Coues both won their singles. Clark-Coues won their doubles.

This ended ourfirstround of matches with all the schools that we play twice.

Ourfirstreturn match was on May 4th against K.U.A. and we lost to them 6-2. Again Nixon won his singles and Clark-Coues won their doubles. WeldNixon had to stop their doubles at 14-14.

Our next match with Holderness, which they won 5-2, was a moral victory because Weld-Nixon beat Baker (once a Florida junior champion )-McCandless 6-4, 6-2. Clark was the only one to win his singles. Our worst defeat was on May

11th to Brooks w h o journeyed up into the hills. Clark again w o n his singles with Weld-Nixon on their doubles. The next match was with Vermont Academy w h o traveled to Proctor. W e took the first four singles and were way ahead when it started to rain. By this match Nixon had moved into the No. 1 slot.

W h e n w e ventured to Tilton we w o n 5-4, Nixon, Weld, Coues and Neubauer all won their singles and Weld-Nixon won their doubles. W e went to N e w Hampton on May 22nd and were beaten 5-4. Clark was the only one to win his singles and Proctor won all of their doubles. The tennis team put on afinalburst of energy and ended the season with a 5-7 record by beating Concord High 7-2.

Unfortunately the team will be losing two of its top players: Capt. Weld and Chase Nixon. They will be leaving four sophomores: Dudley Clark, Captainelect; Pearce Coues, John Neubauer, and Terry Rogers.

The J.V.'s w h o are losing only one letter man, Capt. Bob Sawyer, won't have much trouble duplicating this year's record. Even though they lost all their matches, they gained in experience and had plenty of fun. A lot of credit goes to the two coaches, Mr. Hatt and Mr. Poulin, w h o spent most of their time out on the courts and "turning gray" during matches.

Sailing T h e sailing was launched this fall with great enthusiasm. Returning varsity skippers were Dick Clemence and outboard racer, Joe (Crisco Kid) Lovejoy w h o put Annasquam agasp with his Etchiles Lightning. His sidekick, Bunking Bronco Bliss our C o m m o d o r e , completed the heavy weather crew which was never used for lack of wind. Jim (Thistle) Floyd returned eager to win after a summer of Thistle failure. O u r radio ham, Dave ( W l G V L ) Ross was with us for another season.

Leading the crews were Frank Beveridge, D o n Wakefield, and quiet George Bradt. Long T o m A d a m s and Flagpole Schumacher also squeezed themselves into the small boats. T w o n e w skippers also joined our ranks, N e d Jewett and Jerry Thiel. Of course our faithful watchguard and manager D o u g "President" Taylor was with us for another efficient year.

N o w for the windless meets! W e sailed against Exeter, Schools Sailing Club and St. Paul's School, winning all of the team races with them. T h e highlight of the fall season for Beveridge and Floyd was w h e n they ventured into the Tuft's College C u p Race. They were in second place until they were disqualified for barging. However, they w o n m a n y

inevitable friends for Proctor.

W e were able to start sailing quite early this spring since the ice on our lake went out early. W e repaired the boats as best w e could, threw them overboard, and watched them settle to the bottom. W e raised them and started our rugged spring season. W e sailed against Exeter and lost, Schools Sailing Club and lost, and Tabor for thefirsttime in ten years and lost both meets with them. However the last meet was lost by only V>A points. W e were improving with time.

T h e team owes m a n y thanks to Chef N e w c o m b w h o cooked m a n y a hamburg on his mason's trowel, to our industrious C o m m o dore, Dave Bliss, and to our efficient manager, D o u g "President" Taylor w h o endured the trials of his leaky, battered committee boat.

Our most ardent thanks and gratitude go to our coach, A. William Coolidge, whose words of wisdom "Don't Clutch!" aided us m a n y times during the season. Thanks also to M r .

Littlefield for his great help.

Even though w e lost m a n y times this year, w e accomplished the basic aim of the sport, to have fun.

Golf This year the Golf Team is in its second year of competition and had its best season this spring.

The team played five scheduled matches, winning four and losing one. Our sixth match was in the Lakes Region Preparatory School Tournament. Five schools participated, Tilton, N e w Hampton, Holderness, Brewster and Proctor. Proctor won easily with the team of Captain Bob Foster, Peter Cook, Dick Cramer, John terKuile, Dick Acheson and Monro Brook.

The most exciting match of the season was with the girls from Colby Junior College.

Everyone seemed so excited it was doubtful whether or not they would be able to hit the ball.

Actually the team was disappointed with the lack of competition given them during the season. Our only defeat was played minus one of the team's mainstays, Pete Cook. Nevertheless the team was very happy doing as well as they did with such a lack of competitive

experience. Four of the team members were completely unaware of the competitive angle of golf and did extremely well adapting themselves to it. Monro Brook and Dick Acheson, who had played very little golf as well as having no competitive experience did very well indeed.

The biggest thrill of the season was coming home with the First Annual Lakes Region Preparatory School Trophy. Four team members, Captain Foster, Peter Cook, Dick Cramer, and Monro Brook leave the team by graduating. John terKuile and Dick Acheson are left as a nucleus for next year's team.

The team coach, Mrs. Farrell, was extremely pleased with thefineshowing the team made this year. Actually very little was expected of the team this season but as the spring progressed it looked as if it might shape up pretty well. At the end of the season the Golf Team had about the best Varsity record on campus, of which all the members were quite proud, along with Mrs. Farrell.

The Proctor Players At a meeting in the fall, the Proctor Players decided that the play to be produced this year would be Stalag 17, a comedy-melodrama in three acts by Donald Bevan and E d m u n d Trzcinski. T h e play combined excitement and h u m o r with an all male cast which made it ideal for a school such as Proctor. T h e directors, M r . P. C a m p and M r . Barrett, held readings before Christmas vacation and cast the play upon the boys' return to school in January. Rehearsals began in earnest after Winter Carnival. T h e play was produced on April sixth at the Andover T o w n Hall for the benefit of the Proctor Chest Drive. M r . and Mrs. Barrett designed the set and supervised its production. T h e stage crew helping them was m a d e up of Art Patten, Mike Cook, John Neubauer, and Toby Rodgers. Mrs. Wright and Mrs. C a m p were in charge of make-up. These two also planned and put on a marvelous party for the entire cast after the performance.

T h e setting of the play was a G e r m a n prison c a m p during World W a r II. T h e action took place in one of the barracks and was centered around the attempts of some American prisoners of war to uncover the identity of a Nazi informer w h o had been placed in their midst. After m u c h confusion and many false accusations, the informer (Jake Searles) was discovered by one of the more clever prisoners (Bob Lathrop ).

Added to this central plot were m a n y humorous scenes. S o m e of the prisoners w h o provided many laughs for the audience were portrayed by Dick Cramer (this year's president of the Players), Bob Sawyer, Bob Bunim, D o u g Taylor, and Pete Clark. Jerry MacKenty (this year's secretary-treasurer) played the prison mailman and gossip carrier. T h e barracks chief was played by Dave Beck. T h e other prisoners were portrayed by Bill Gilmore, Dave Bliss, Chase Nixon, George Bradt, L e w Crafts, Terry Rogers, and David Stockwell.

In charge of this somewhat boisterous group of m e n were Corporal Schultz, played by Jay Stewart, and two guards played by Dave Norm a n and Jim Floyd. Bill Cosel took the part of a ruthless SS captain, and Dick Dahlgren played a Geneva M a n w h o inspected the c a m p for the W a r Crimes Commission.

At their last meeting this spring, the Players elected Bill Cosel as next year's president and D o u g Taylor as secretary-treasurer. T h e group is looking forward to performing in the school's n e w auditorium next year. T h e n e w stage and the specially built prop and set construction room below it will greatly facilitate our activities. W e are also hoping to recruit some n e w members to replace the fine talent displayed by this year's seniors.

Proctor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Westmount T h e annual jaunt to Montreal for the Westmount g a m e was characterized by fine October weather, flat tires, puzzled immigration officials, and the usual thoroughly enjoyable time. T h e Proctor-Westmount date bureau functioned to perfection to m a k e Saturday night's dance a huge success and a quiet Sunday apparently readied the team for Monday's game.

Proctor's power was readily noticeable as she rolled u p a four touchdown lead by shortly after half-time. A well-balanced running and passing attack kept Westmount on the defensive throughout the first three quarters.

Outstanding offensive play by backs Stewart, Tanner, Harris, Gilmore and W e l d and the alert defense of Proctor's hard charging line left little doubt as to the eventual outcome.

In the final quarter, Westmount's inevitable

speed paid off as its scat-backs managed to elude the Proctor defenses for two quick touchdowns. T h e final score of 26-13 gave Proctor a 4-3 edge in possession of the D o u g Smaille Trophy.

The return trip was uneventful as Africa Searles slipped through immigration with hardly a ripple. As has always been the case, all w h o m a d e the trip will be forever grateful to our friends across the border for their hospitality, thoughtfulness, and good sportsmanship. This experiment in improving international relationships continues to prove highly successful and has become an increasingly popular and beneficial event in each school year. All at Proctor hope the annual competition in skiing can be renewed next year.
