HEADMASTER’S CORNER As far as schools go, Fryeburg Academy is a bit of an odd duck.

Consider the nerve center of our school. Built in 1853, our main building continues to serve us well and to add to the historic atmosphere of our campus.

The typical American school replaces its buildings (at the taxpayers’ expense) every 50 years or so. At that rate, we would be on our fourth Main Building.

Instead, we invest the time, care and funds to preserve and honor what we have.

Consider our dramatically impressive new facilities. Not a penny was paid by the taxpayer, yet these new buildings will enhance and enrich the cultural and recreational life of Western Maine just as surely as if they were public buildings.

Consider the Academy’s reputation. The typical American school has a reputation (good or bad) that seldom reaches beyond its own geographic region. The Academy’s strong reputation reaches literally around the world, attracting students who want to experience what this school offers to all of its students, local and “from away.”

Dan Lee-FA Headmaster with his wife, Susie Lee

Consider the troubling trend in America today of government’s appetite for control of our schools. The trend has caused some to refer to our public schools as “government schools.” The Academy, instead, believes that independence promotes quality education and that academic decisions should be in the hands of professional educators, not bureaucrats or government officials. This formula has enabled the Academy to create a school program and to engender a school environment that promotes learning and personal development, the cornerstones of Fryeburg Academy’s reputation.

Consider the high levels of faculty and administrative turnover that plague most American high schools.

It’s not the slightest bit unusual for a school to lose one-third of its faculty in a bad year, 15% in a good year. The tenure of the typical principal is short and getting shorter. The Academy enjoys a very stable crew and very low attrition. The people of Fryeburg Academy want to be at Fryeburg Academy.

Being an odd duck isn’t so bad. In fact, I rather like it. Dan Lee Fessenden House at Fryeburg Academy - The Headmaster’s House - December 21, 2008 Snowstorm

ALUMNI DIRECTOR

I hope everyone is doing well despite these times of economic challenge.

We’re all in it together that’s for sure!

My intention with every issue of Scenes is to uplift your day with news from home, photos of your families, friends and classmates. It is a great time to remember how much we are impacted by those around us. The students at FA remind me daily of the hope of the future. So often they remind me of classmates I knew when I was an FA student. I was so thrilled and honored to write an article on Fred Murkland ‘43 and his lovely wife, Pat Barker Murkland ‘43. The WWII days must have been incredible in so many ways. The thing that struck me most about Fred is how much he loved to talk about FA football. He remembered the plays, the teammates and even the weather on the days he played games. I recently spent some time with current football players and co-captains of this past year’s team, Dylan Anderson ‘09 and Preston Jones ‘09. I told them about Fred and his stories of being an FA quarterback. I told them about his stories of being a hero and pilot in WWII. I told them how Fred is now 84 years old but when he got out his senior photos and football team photos from the 40s, he looked just like they did in the photos I have taken of them over the last four years. History simply reRachel Andrews Damon ‘76 peats itself. But each individual brings such greatness to the day like Fred, Dylan & Preston. There are Photo by son, many photos in this issue that tell of individuals who have brought greatness to FA. Those who rallied Bennett Damon ‘10 at the time of the fire and rebuilt, those who gave donations to make it possible and those who support this school in their hearts and minds on a daily basis. We, at Fryeburg Academy, are eternally If you are (or if you know of) grateful. I feel there are few higher ideals to serve than education. And fewer ideals that can an alum of Fryeburg Academy cure many of society’s ills than continued education. For those of you who help us fulfill this who is a WWII veteran and for generations, a huge and heartfelt thank you. Remember...Reunion 2009 is the weekend of would allow us to write your August 14, 15 & 16. You will all get information in the mail and our website will contain the story for Scenes, please condetails. Everyone has a great time at Reunion, so don’t miss it.

NOTES & COMMENT FROM ALUMNI HOUSE On Losing a Friend - In the darkest hours of the longest night of the year, the Academy lost one of its most important living friends, as Bion R. Cram ‘33 slipped away just before dawn on Sunday morning, December 21, 2008. With his passing comes the closing of an era, and more so, the end of a legacy that goes all the way back to Harvey Dow Gibson. Harvey not only led the Academy for more than a generation, but he also enabled Bion, in June of 1937, to become the very first graduate of Bowdoin, in the equally dark days of that late-Depression year, to land a job.

Bion was not just the Academy’s friend, however, and as I struggle with these words I am reminded that during our ten-year friendship he became my friend as well.

Just a few days ago I wrote about his partner John’s silent supporting role in Bion’s much more public life, and it is strangely serendipitous that today I write about the significance of this leading man.

In the summer of 1929, Elroy “Mister” LaCasce paid a visit to West Baldwin and convinced Bion’s father to send him to Fryeburg. Bion was a boarding student, but often took the train home on weekends. It was a smaller school then, and while Bion eschewed sports, he was a very good student and graduated in 1933 earning the coveted Gibson Medal, then, as now, the Academy’s highest academic award. He was given a scholarship and accepted to Bowdoin and went on to enjoy that storied, coastal college equally as well as the Academy, deep loyalties that resonate strongly even today.

Without Bion there would be no new Bion R. Cram Library at the Academy, arguably the architectural and social centerpiece of the recent renaissance of this 217-year-old Tim Scott, FA’s Director of Development campus. Without Bion’s gifts we would have struggled through its first year of operation, as we began to fully understand that magnificent buildings are expensive to run. Without Bion we would not have the outstanding Ada Cram Wadsworth Arena, named by Bion in honor of his older sister, Ada (Cram Wadsworth), a teacher here in the late 1920s.

And without Bion we would not have the “founding” member of the LaCasce Bequest Society, a special group of thoughtful people who have agreed to remember the Academy in their wills.

I know that he took great joy, and pride, and satisfaction to return to campus in this very important capacity. Surely we needed him; but, just perhaps, he needed us, too.

But that is only the financial, philanthropic part. Bion came late in his life to this vaunted stage, understanding, thanks to John McCoy & Bion Cram ‘33 John’s relentless encouragement, that there is inestimable joy in being alive to see what one’s gifts can accomplish in the service of others. As a result, Bion learned what it was like to be truly appreciated by a new generation of young people here at the Academy, and how he would be able to have a hand in their future long after he was gone. This is a great legacy, indeed.

Bion, the man, was a delight. He had a wonderful sense of humor, a love of his two homes, his Lincoln cars, his long walks and his regular 5:00 p.m. Beefeater martinis. He had a deep appreciation of and dependence on his partner, John; and he genuinely reveled in the way that in his life “it all turned out fine.” His career moved quickly upward from Gibson’s Manufacturer’s Hanover Bank, to AT&T, to a blessedly brief stint at a desk in the Army, to the fabled environs of the New York Stock Exchange in what was certainly a more genteel and honorable time. First in Manhattan, and later in Poughkeepsie, and then at home in Garrison with a breathtaking view of the Hudson River’s fabled “Storm King”, Bion’s clients enjoyed the rewards of prudent investment even as Bion learned more and more about the companies that he, himself, elected to own. His favorite stories were of obscure stocks in solid companies bought low, only to gain great value as if with Midas’ own golden touch. It was usually so with Bion.

He and John traveled a great deal, always frugally but with interesting adventures and outcomes, and along the way they made great, lifelong friends. The trips to Europe, and Florida, and Maine each offered them variety and new horizons from which to view their increasingly comfortable world. For a small-town boy from a farm in West Baldwin, Maine, Bion Cram had come a long way.

When I saw him last in November, I could hardly recognize him as he tossed in his hospital bed. His final illness came swiftly and without mercy; and with it, I suppose, came the quiet closing of the curtain on one man’s triumphant life. He was our hero, here at the Academy; his sizable generosity truly helped the school. I will miss Bion and John as if they were my very own uncles. I guess that is how it was meant to be. Yes, Bion, it all turned out fine. Timothy G. Scott -3Fryeburg Academy, 745 Main Street, Fryeburg, Maine 04037, (207) 935-2001 x 3137, www.fryeburgacademy.org, e-mail-alumni@fryeburgacademy.org

DIRECTOR OF GIFT PLANNING

Peter Klomp, FA’s Director of Gift Planning with Tekoya Lenon Salhany ‘96 in Chicago

LOOKING FOR ALL FORMER SCHOLL SCHOLARS- In December, in Chicago, we had an alumni gettogether at the home of Frank and Nancy Schildberg Hogan ’56. We had a wonderful turnout and it so happened there were many former Scholl Scholars present. The Dr. Scholl Foundation began to financially support students from Chicago to go to Fryeburg Academy in 1981. Between 1981 and 2003 over 40 students attended the Academy – these young people are our Scholl Scholars.

It occurred to me, following our December reception, that it would be a wonderful event to ask all of our former Scholl Scholars to get together, either in Chicago or in Fryeburg next summer. If you are a Scholl Scholar, please get in touch with us so we can plan a big party.

We could even schedule it during Reunion Weekend this coming August and encourage Ms. Pamela Scholl to join us. What’s needed is for you to call the Alumni Office at 207-9352001, ext. 3137 and let us know where you are and if you’d be willing to get involved. You may also call me at 603-662-5525. We need your help to pull this off. It’s even more meaningful right now because in September 2009 the Scholl Foundation is again going to make it possible for a Chicago student to attend Fryeburg Academy. Let’s make this happen! I need your thoughts, as well as your current mailing information. Thank you - Peter Klomp (207) 935-2001 x 3147

So far, this 2008-2009 school year has been a very busy and productive year for our Academy. The Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center, the second phase of the Phoenix Project, is now complete and what a beautiful facility we are now blessed with on our Campus and in the town of Fryeburg. As I write this article, various personnel are moving in and setting up their offices, classrooms and art galleries. John Day ‘67, is the new Director of the Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace Galleries of Art. John will schedule and coordinate art shows for these galleries. These shows will be open to our students and to the public and will support the cultural fine arts of the Academy, the town of Fryeburg, all of Western Maine, as well as the Mount Washington Valley. It is hard for me to put into words the feelings of awe I had as I toured this magnificent Performing Arts Center. This building is such a tribute to all of you who helped us make this possible for the present and future students of Fryeburg Academy, and to honor a woman who so loved her family, her community, music and the arts, Leura Hill Eastman ’27. The formal dedication of the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center will be the weekend of May 15th -17th, 2009. Further notification on times will be forthcoming. Keep watch… and please come and see what you, the members of the alumni community, have created for Fryeburg Academy and its students to enjoy for generations Scott Kelly ‘53 to come. Now that the time frame for the formal public fundraising for the Phoenix Project has come FA’s Alumni Coordinator to a close, there is still quiet, additional fundraising ongoing to complete the $16.3 million project. All our efforts, since the devastating fire of 2005, have been centered on the Phoenix Project, and now our concentrated efforts must return to class participation and our Annual Giving appeal. The Board of Trustees, the Headmaster’s Council, class agents, parents, faculty and staff, friends, the Fryeburg Academy Alumni Association, and the Alumni Office have all committed to make this a priority on a yearly basis. Our fiscal year runs from July 1st-June 30th. In late November 2008 we had a general Alumni Annual Giving appeal. A second appeal was mailed in mid-January 2009 to all our current class agents. We are now in the process of doing a mailing to all parents of the 2009 through 2012 students to help support our continuing Annual Giving appeal, which is critical in sustaining our student programs. We are grateful to the parents who have readily come forth and are willing to help coordinate this effort. I look forward to seeing all of you at the opening of the Performing Arts Center the weekend of May 15–17, 2009, and also Reunion Weekend - August 14–16, 2009.

ARCHIVES

Florence Graves Tripp ‘55 FA Archivist

It is a very active and inspiring time at Fryeburg Academy. The students that work on the school newspaper, The Raider Review, are collecting information on past events and plays that were held in the K of P Hall on Main Street of Fryeburg, the movie theatre on Elm Street, the Assembly Hall in the Academy building and the Gibson Recreational Center. Requests are coming in for play programs, posters and pictures to be framed that were held in these various buildings and these will be hung in the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center. The research for these projects and weekly requests by students and faculty for information and pictures can only be accomplished by the many donations of yearbooks, programs, newspaper clippings and memorabilia given to archives by our many alums and friends. This department has a huge collection of black and white pictures that are currently being scanned to be accessible to the Fryeburg Academy staff, students and faculty. Scenes gives me the opportunity to thank so many of you for your continued interest in Fryeburg Academy, and to offer a special thanks to the FA Trustees, the Alumni Association and the staff of Fryeburg Academy, particularly the Alumni Office staff for all their support and consideration for this vast and awesome archive collection. Always feel free, when in the area, to drop by to visit and tour the climate-controlled storage room in the Bion R. Cram Library. I feel very confident you will find it both interesting and informative on this historic campus of Fryeburg Academy. Florence Tripp ‘55, ftripp@fryeburgacademy.org, 207-935-5005

FRYEBURG ACADEMY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION It is again a pleasure to be writing to you from the FAAA Board. As I wind down my two-year term as president (until the Annual Meeting in August), I want to discuss a couple of things; one fun and one necessary. First, the fun one - reconnecting. When we become alumni of Fryeburg Academy, we all become extremely busy with life after high school. Whether it is more schooling, careers, families, involvement with the community, or general demands on our time, everyone becomes busy and loses track of old friends and contacts. The Alumni Office works diligently to keep track of all of us, and everyone’s happenings. They also plan great events and do a good job bringing us back to the school to homecoming events, annual reunions, and other functions. Between visits to the school and the area, it is nice to stay in touch with former classmates, and I have recently become involved with a great medium to do just that – Facebook. Certainly, there are other ways to stay in touch – the telephone, email, texting, etc., but Facebook has allowed me to reconnect with many friends from FA, and I am a new user of this technology. Facebook is a social networking website. It is really neat. My children are appalled that I am on the site and homing in on their turf, but it is a good way of keeping an eye on them. I have connected with many friends, family and FA alumni. There is an actual Fryeburg Academy group. I have reconnected with classmates all over the country - from Belfast, Maine, to Texas, to Oshkosh, Minnesota – it is wild. I can see pictures of my classmates as they are now with their families. I have made some great connections and plan on staying on the site and keeping up with old Fryeburg Academy alumni. It is a fun way of reconnecting. When you get a chance, check out Facebook and create an account. Once in Facebook, you can find the Fryeburg Academy Alumni group, and become a member of the group. Be sure to look me up, and add me as a friend. Facebook is giving us the opportunity to extend and maintain the special relationships we formed at Fryeburg Academy, which is unique to this school. I look forward to seeing you in cyberspace. The Board has much work to do in keeping the FAAA financially strong for years to come. The Board has the responsibility of managing the portfolio that funds the operating budget and giving practices of the Alumni Association. The FAAA is not immune to the challenges in the economy, and our investments have been impacted, just as all of your investments have. As we all look at our 401Ks turning into 201Ks the same has happened to the Association. We will be challenged to work hard at cutting spending and building up the funds so that the FAAA can give to the students and Academy for many, many years to come. This can and will be done. The members work on ideas and money decisions every meeting; it is on our minds constantly. For the first time the FAAA has started a fundraising campaign for the Association. Robert Burnell ‘50 has taken some beautiful pictures of the campus, and he came up with the idea of using the photos to raise money for the FAAA. This has been a huge undertaking and Bob and his committee have been working diligently on this project. Bob, his committee and the FAAA have chosen two panoramic views to be produced - one shows the Academy from the front, like it has never changed. The second photo is from the back showing the new, beautiful buildings on the entire campus. We have an inventory of these photos available for sale, and they can be purchased with or without frames. They can be seen on the Fryeburg Academy website or at the Alumni Office in person. All profits from the sale of the pictures will go into the general fund of the Alumni Association to be used in our annual giving budget. This will allow our investment funds to grow over a long period of time. Please take a look at these wonderful pictures and contact us to get a set for yourself or for a gift. Prices and ordering information are available by contacting Bob Burnell ‘50 at rsbvideo@hotmail.com or (207) 935-7260 or by contacting any Alumni Association member. Thank you in advance for your support.

Anyone who wants to get involved or wants to share their ideas, please contact me or any FAAA member. My email address is wmlperry72@gmail.com, phone-603-694-3313. Proud to be called a Fryeburg Academy Alum - Bill Perry ‘80, President FAAA

THE LEURA HILL EASTMAN PERFORMING ARTS CENTER OPENS! The Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center at Fryeburg Academy is a 381-seat, 16,000 square foot, brick building that follows the Academy’s traditional design as well as incorporating spectacular architecture. AND IT IS NOW OPEN! Two faculty houses were removed to make room for the new Arts Center. The architect for the building was Mark Lee of Harriman Associates of Auburn, Maine. The builder was Sheridan Corporation of Fairfield, Maine. Harriman Associates and Sheridan Corporation constructed the fieldhouse, as well. Six quotes surround the outer walls of the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center (EPAC). The quotes were chosen by a committee of FA folks from submissions received. The building is named for alum Leura Hill Eastman ‘27 as designated by her daughter, Diane Eastman Powell ‘53.

The theater welcomes visitors with an exquisite, sunny lobby surrounded in glass. Highlighting the lobby will be our donor plaque listing everyone who helped make the theater possible. The EPAC offers The Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace Art Galleries, a box office, a theater classroom, dressing rooms, a green room for waiting performers, offices, storage and equipment facilities and even an area for a vehicle to pull inside for ease of unloading equipment and props. But the spectacular area is the theater itself. The stage is vast and deep and has four sets of flowing theater curtains and a wonderful screen for films. The cherry wood covered walls have been designed for optimal accoustics and aesthetics. Highlighting the back of each theater seat will be a donor plaque. For a donation of $1,500 donors can name a seat in honor, or memory, of someone special. The EPAC is equipped with the latest high tech sound and lighting systems. FA alum, Whit Lucy ‘07, is charged with running the inside operation of the theater - the lighting and sound, as well as building maintenance. The Grand Opening of the Theater will take place on the weekend of May 15, 16 & 17. Many celebratory events are planned and all alums will receive more information in the mail. Some theater seats are still available for purchase - if you are interested, contact the Alumni Office at (207) 935-2001 x3137.

FA Phoenix Project Leaders-Asa O. “A.O.” Pike, IV ‘57-President FA Board of Trustees, Brett Russell ‘56 & Chris Gordon ‘81

By the afternoon of October 12, 2005, the day the Gibson Gym burned down, there were three trustees who became the Chairs of the Phoenix Project to rebuild. They are Asa O. Pike IV ‘57, Brett Russell ‘56 & Chris Gordon ‘81, as photographed in the lobby of the new Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center (and photo left in the theater).

Chris Gordon ‘81 was instrumental in the design of the EPAC and says, “The design of the Arts Center was developed to fit with the context of the historic “red brick” campus, while striving to be a bit more unique and creative.

We have a contemporary shape, curved modern lobby, and theatrical quotes engraved in the exterior gallery walls. It was also an objective to provide a stateof-the-art performance venue with an elegant large-scale stage and seating area, sophisticated sound and lighting technology, and professional-level backstage and gallery areas.”

Brett Russell ‘56 was critical to the fundraising aspect of the entire Phoenix Project. Brett says, “Each time I enter the Leura Hill Eastman Performing Arts Center I am awash with emotion, notably one of extreme gratitude for the more than 1200 donors to the Phoenix Project. This is by far the most donors that have ever contributed to any Fryeburg Academy capital campaign.

In just over three years we have raised over $13 million toward a total project of slightly more than $16 million. To all of you who have risen to the challenge that we faced I say “thank you”.

A.O. Pike ‘57 adds, “Everyone affliated with Fryeburg Academy has worked together to cope with substantial trauma, the difficulty of a couple of years of playing all or most games, concerts, plays and other events without a “home” court, field or stage. Now we have the finest library, fieldhouse and athletic facility and certainly the most wonderfully equipped and furnished 381-seat performing arts center in our region of New England, all as part of our already beautiful Fryeburg Academy campus. Working together, along with the cooperation and generosity of many alumni and friends, we have managed to “squeeze” a 10 to 12-year school improvement plan into one that, physically complete after a bit over five years, has provided results far beyond our dreams!”

It is through the diligent and tireless efforts of many, including the members of the Steering Committee, the Headmaster, the Trustees and staff, that everyone will long enjoy these two new buildings on Bradley Street. For their incredible leadership, we all say thank you, Asa, Brett & Chris!

THE LEURA HILL EASTMAN PERFORMING ARTS CENTER OPENS! Fryeburg Academy has appointed John Day ’67 as the new Director of The Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace Galleries of Art at Fryeburg Academy.

John was a town student from Parsonsfield, Maine, when he arrived at Fryeburg Academy in the mid-60s. John’s parents were Merle F. & Edythe Ridlon Day. His grandmother, Adelia Turner ‘07, also attended Fryeburg Academy for a time and lived across the street from the school (currently the Arizona Zipper ’60 house). John has one sister, Carol, and one brother, David, who did not attend the Academy.

John Day ‘67, Director of The Palmina F. and Stephen S. Pace Galleries of John says, “I think what struck me about Fryeburg Art talked to WCSH at a tour and preview of the new Leura Hill Eastman Academy when I arrived was the incredible sense of history Performing Arts Center at Fryeburg Academy and family continuity. Four of my grandfathers were incorporators of the school, among them Henry Young Brown (for which Brownfield was named) and Thomas Osgood. Daniel Webster actually boarded in one of my grandfather’s houses.

John appeared in many plays while at FA. He remembers fondly playing Freddy in “My Fair Lady.” John says, “I was an art man from the get-go! The Academy got me interested in art. The library subscribed to two art magazines - Apollo and Connoisseur.

I loved them both and read them voraciously.” John was also very interested in history and adds, “I loved the sense of life having a thread. History was my thing, NOT math and science! But I had Mr. Kelly ’53 for science as a senior. If I had him as a freshman, I could have majored in science. I loved his teaching style and clarity.” John won the BW Tinker Prize for history at his graduation.

John went on to attend American University in Washington, DC, in September of 1967 and majored in history. He loved living in DC and adds, “I was one of the last people to ever talk to Martin Luther King, Jr. I heard him give his last sermon at the National Cathedral. King told him, ‘You fight discrimination where you find it.’ King made me want to go to law school. When the DC race riots happened, my parents yanked me out of AU and I transferred into USM. I finished there on the seven-year plan!” John went to graduate school at UMaine Orono and received his master’s in Canadian Studies. There he met his life partner, Bill, and they have now been together for 35 years.

John became a teacher and taught for four years at Oak Hill High School in Wales, Maine, and then for 28 years at Greely High School in Cumberland, Maine, where he was the Chair of History. John retired in June of 2008.

After the FA Gibson Gym burned in October of 2005, John became part of the steering committee for rebuilding. An art collector himself, John has donated a few of his paintings to FA. He had also shepherded the donation of a number of other paintings from artists including the Paces, for whom the new art galleries are named.

John has big plans for the new galleries, “I want to help develop the reputation for Fryeburg, as a school, where the arts are integral and to make the Pace Art Galleries a regional class museum. I want to develop a permanent collection and also have a series of ongoing shows. Nothing would make me happier than to have this part of the Maine Art Trail!”

John will be at FA once a week, continuing to live in Yarmouth, Maine, and will work at home, otherwise. John wants alums and friends to get involved with displaying their art pieces.

He adds, “Stephen Pace was a farmer. He planted a good seed here and we will reap the harvest. Over the next 25, 50, 100 years, we have no idea what this can become – but it’s going to be good!” Next August will be the Stephen Pace Show at FA. John also hopes to achieve his goal of making the galleries a center of paintings of the White Mountains.

John adds, “The Academy would hope to solicit donations of paintings, photos, antiques, sculpture and art pieces of this area. It’s all very exciting and I’m thrilled, as I love this school. I wouldn’t be doing this for free if I didn’t!”

As a side note, Apollo Magazine is currently working on a story on B.T. Newman and will be highlighting the painting from the FA library. The story will be coming out later this summer.

FRED MURKLAND ‘43 2008 Distinguished Alum of the Year Each year the Alumni Association selects a distinguished alum to be honored at Reunion. The 2008 winner was Fred Murkland ’43. While Fred was individually honored, it was agreed that he represented all WWII alums and that was noted in the Association’s tribute to him.

Fred Murkland was a dorm student from Charlton, Massachusetts (just south of Worcester). His grandparents lived in West Fryeburg and, even though he often visited them, he lived in the dorm. He arrived on the FA scene for his sophomore year – September of 1940. Fred attended Worcester Academy previously and was the quarterback for their football team. His parents felt he could receive a better education in Fryeburg. He quickly became a football standout at the Academy, as well. “Between Bill Odell ‘43 and me, we called the plays. We would quickly get into a huddle and say, ‘Let’s try this one!’ I remember Jim Doughty ‘42 and Rod Nelson ‘43. We were good friends. We were on the 1942 undefeated team.

Fred Murkland ‘43 There was FA Senior Photo only one touchdown against us that year. Ron Torrey was the coach. He was one of the most gentle, but rigid, coaches I ever had. He was very fair.”

Fred also played basketball, ran track, played baseball and skied. “I skied with Hans Schneider at Cranmore and eventually worked on the ski patrol there.”

Academically, Fred says, “I never had any major problems. I had several favorite teachers - Pop Grierson, Ralph Larrabee and Cliff Gray, who was a great guy and a good friend. My dorm room was right beside the place where Cliff had his apartment.

Mrs. Gray had just had a baby. We thought we were really something because we all had a new baby! Mrs. Gray was something else. She’d say, ‘Fred, come here – I just made a pie. Want a chunk?!’”

Fred loves to talk about FA football and Fryeburg Academy Football Players (not full team) circa 1942 - Fred Murkland ‘43quickly gets back to that topic. “I remember a really #43, Jim Doughty ‘42-#6, Bill Odell ‘43-#3, Gene Gamble ‘42 #9, tough game with Mexico, Maine. It had been raining.

Franklin Stearns ‘42-#29 & Captain Bob Murch ‘42 #1 The field was mud. We won 6-0. We were lucky. I got the pass back from Jim Doughty ‘42 and I threw the pass to Ralph Edwards ‘44. He lassoed the ball back to me, and I ran 50 yards for a touchdown. I slipped in the mud in the most juicy part of the field. I was covered with mud. Running for that touchdown in the mud…well, I couldn’t run very fast because of it, and these big guys are chasing me and I don’t want to get whacked! My father and mother and my grandfather came up for that one. Coach Torrey was smart; he said, ‘Fred, go back down to Fryeburg with your parents. Just go back and enjoy yourself with your family at the farm.’ I remember Faker Stearns ‘42. He became a lawyer. Most everyone in that class planned to come back the next year, but, of course, the Navy showed up in January…”

“I took an exam and if you had a certain score you could pick what you wanted. I scored well. They said I could go to Pensacola and in 90 days become a pilot. I was very gung ho, as was everyone. I graduated from Fryeburg Academy in June 1943 and headed for Boston, where I got in uniform, said Fred Murkland ‘43 & Pat Barker ‘43 with friends on the night before goodbye to my parents, and headed for NYC for the night. I met WWII pilot training began-the soldier far right was killed in training.

up with my classmate, Pat Barker ‘43, and one of her friends. We all went out that night. We had a great time. Those two girls took us around everywhere in New York City.”

Pat Barker ’43 was also a dorm student from Montvale, NJ, and she also attended Fryeburg Academy from her sophomore to senior years. Pat says, “I had an uncle who worked for a bank in NY and the bank bought Birchmont (burned in 1970 and rebuilt as the Red Jacket) in North Conway, NH. They had it mainly for their employees. My aunt and uncle managed it and their two sons (Fred Barker ‘41 and John Barker ‘42) went to the Academy. I wanted to go to business school – so my parents agreed it would be good for me to go away. They sent me to Fryeburg to get a good education and experience dorm life.”

Pat says, “I was very homesick in the beginning, but I finally Pat Barker Murkland ‘43 at FA circa 1942 in front of Alumni got in with the other gals and worked it out. A very good friend House of mine was Carolyn Neal ‘42. I played basketball, skied, played softball and field hockey. I was a pretty good student. I loved Mrs. Merrill - she taught French and was so wonderful. I loved languages and English. I also loved Pat Atwater Pipe, the girls’ athletic coach and my typing teacher, Barbara Leighton.”

Pat says of the ‘40s, “Everyone wanted to serve in WWII. There was a lot of esprit de corps.” Fred adds, “I wanted to go earlier (into the military), but Mister (FA Headmaster Elroy O. LaCasce) wouldn’t let me. I would have been the youngest pilot in the Navy, but George Bush, Sr., beat me by one month!” Fred also adds, “It was sad, but everyone was going off to the war.”

Fred, in fact, became a U.S. Navy pilot. “After training in Pensacola, I went to San Diego to train on how to fly planes on and off the carriers. I had four months of that. You learned about how to survive. I had a Corsair plane – the big, heavy-duty planes - the best ones the Navy ever had. You had to learn how to take off when the front of the carrier went up or you got very wet! So I made my first two or three take-offs and landings and all was great. Then I missed and went over the side in my plane! I was rescued. The plane went down. I got into new clothing then went to talk to the Admiral. He said, ‘What happened to you?’ I said, ‘I’m not ever going to fly again! To hell with you.’ I was a wise kid and mad and scared. I had been waved off incorrectly. I told the Admiral that I did not want to do this again. He said, ‘We’ve spent a lot of money training you.’

Then he told a Marine to take me down for a scotch or two. So I came back to see him the next day and the Admiral says, ‘Get your equipment on.’ I said ‘No!’ He said, ‘Go get it now.’ I didn’t like his tone of voice. I ended up taking off and went around three times making three great landings. He said, ‘You will fly for us - you’re a damned good pilot.’”

Fred saw a lot of combat serving as a Navy pilot. When asked if this upset him, Fred says, “No. Everyone thought about Pearl Harbor. We remembered Bataan. We were caught up in the heat of battle.” Fred’s worst moment was when he was stationed aboard the USS Franklin. He had just taken off when a kamikaze hit the open bomb bay doors dead center. “We lost 1,200 men. I was the last one off the ship. All I could see behind me were flames.”

Fred says, “We were on Guam when the Japanese surrendered.” Pat was living in New York City, working on Wall Street, and was actually in Times Fred Murkland ‘43 - 2008 Fryeburg Academy Alumni Square on VJ Day. She still has ticker tape she collected from the parade.

After discharge from the military, Fred went to the University of Maine.

“They had so many guys at Orono coming back from the war that they put us in Brunswick.

We played baseball and football. We had a great time.” Fred says, “I really wanted to go into forestry, but the war changed that. I began to realize that there has to be some way for me to pay back, so I decided to try teaching.” Fred received his B.S. in Education. He then went to Searsport, Maine, to teach.

He taught seven subjects and coached four sports and got $1,700 a year in salary. “I married my wife, Doris, in 1947.

We had five children. I wanted us to have a hockey team.

Our two girls learned to skate, and they could outskate their Pat Barker Murkland ‘43 & Fred Murkland ‘43 at their home in brothers like you wouldn’t believe.” Fred went on to get his Venice, Florida master’s degree from UMaine Orono. Later he received his doctorate from Columbia University in New York. He spent 14 years teaching at the University of Connecticut, as well. Doris Murkland died in 1988.

Pat Barker ‘43 married in 1946 and had three children. She divorced in 1962. Fred and Pat ran into each other again at their 50th class reunion in 1993. Fred had also noticed in a class listing that Pat lived in Venice, Florida, near a friend of his. Fred was living in Connecticut at the time. The friend told Pat she knew “Freddie” Murkland and that he was coming to visit in the winter.

Pat told the friend to have Fred ring her up. Fred called Pat and they started seeing each other as friends and then it got more serious.

Fred Murkland ’43 and Pat Barker ’43 were married in 2000. They live in Venice, Florida.

Pat was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. She was scheduled for knee replacement and had to have a chest Xray; which shockingly displayed the cancer. Pat has had chemo and surgery. “I’ve had a long recovery so far. This has really knocked me for a loop. I’ve had very good doctors, however. The good news is that the cancer has not progressed. I played golf the other day and I’ve gone back to swimming.”

Both Pat and Fred have very fond memories of their days at FA. Pat offers the following advice to today’s students, “Make the most of everything that’s offered so you can realize your potential.” Fred says, “Be honest. Respect your parents. Respect your teachers. Remember, the people that are teaching you have worked very hard to find out what you need to know, so it’s best to listen.”

BOB BURNELL ‘50 I recently sat down with Bob Burnell ’50 for a visit and interview about his first 76 years on the planet! Bob was both a town student and a dorm student. He rode the bus for three years and then stayed in the dorm during the last part of his junior year and for his senior year. He is from West Baldwin, Maine, the son of Percy ’23 & Olive Stanton Burnell ‘28. Percy met Olive when her father asked Percy to give her a ride. As Bob says, “It was quite a long ride as they married in 1929 and were married ‘til dad’s death in 1983. My mother followed him about six months later in 1984.” Bob has one sister, Carolyn Burnell Brooks ’55.

As a student at FA, Bob says he acted in the one-act play competition his freshman and senior years. He remembers starring as Paul in “Paul Splits the Atom” his freshman year. The one-act play his senior year was a drama with Phyllis Crocker Chamberlain ‘50, Eric Love ‘50 and Ben Brown ‘50, which he remembers fondly. “In the play, our son had been killed and the person that Phyllis’ character attributed the death to was coming for tea and she was going to poison him. Well, I played a klutz that didn’t know what was going on and when I started to drink the poisoned tea she’d intended for him, she had to whack the cup out of my hand.” Bob also played baseball and football. As a student, he was in the agricultural program. Bob says, “I didn’t expect to go on to school. I was from a farm family.”

Some of Bob’s favorite teachers were Pop Grierson, Ralph Larrabee and Mrs. Bob Burnell ‘50 LaCasce. “Mrs. LaCasce taught English and she was quite good. English was not one of my strong subjects but I liked the way she taught it. Clarence Walker and Andy Welch – they were all very nice. They were sharp and really interesting and made all the academics easy to take.”

Bob recalls those post-WWII days as being very happy. “During my freshman year we had lots of post graduates coming back and most of the guys who had left Fryeburg to go into the service were back. ...I thought it was a great time.”

Bob says, “I went in the Navy after graduation. I signed up that June and would go in that September. Just before I went in, the Korean Conflict began. I was in for four years but never got west of the Mississippi. I spent a lot of time going up and down the Atlantic, in the Mediterranean and at Guantanamo Bay. I was an Electronics Technician.”

Bob says, “As far as I’m concerned, Fryeburg had a big part to play in what I did and how I did it. FA allowed me to pick my own courses, even though I was in the Agriculture Program. I took all the math and sciences I could. When I took my exam for the Navy to find out what schools I was qualified for, I did well enough to be able to pick any school the Navy had to offer - so I picked electronics.”

Bob was discharged from the Navy after four years and went to the University of Maine at Orono on the GI Bill. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering and then went on to Northeastern and got his master’s degree. He went to work for Bell Labs in North Andover in 1958.

In 1966 Bob married his wife, Elizabeth. He met her through some friends at work. She had three children and then she and Bob had three more - five boys and one girl. Daughter, Laurie, lives in Pegosa Springs, CO, and has two children; son, Jeff, lives in NYC and runs his own company training executives on presentations, writing and speaking; son, David, lives in Oregon and teaches physics at Oregon State; son, Scott, lives in Maryland and works in the public relations department of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and has one child; son, Dean, lives in Johnson, Vermont, and works for the Stowe, Vermont, Tourism Bureau; and, son, Ross, lives in Hannacroix, NY, and is a farmer raising Icelandic sheep. “My wife and I raised our children with a major focus on education. Our oldest five graduated from college, but our youngest decided he didn’t want to go.”

Bob retired from Bell Labs/Western Electric on December 31, 1989, after 32 years with the company. He spends his retirement days doing freelance videography work and traveling. As Bob says, “I try to get enough income from video to pay for the next round of videography and photography equipment.”

Bob has been doing videography for the Fryeburg Fair since 1992.

Bob travels extensively and has been to Alaska three times, as well as Australia, New Zealand, Scotland, Ireland, Germany and on many trips out west. He has a self-sufficient camper on the back of his truck and drives to all his North American destinations. “There is no question that Alaska is my favorite destination. The scenery between points certainly keeps your attention. I’d like to go back. I’ve been to a lot of places up there that are well-known, Glacier Bay, Denali National Park, a couple of grizzly bear camps, which were quite exciting!

I am a nature lover. I put my gun away in the early ‘70s – then started taking pictures instead of shooting.” Bob drives to Illinois most every spring to attend a Bob Burnell ‘50 at Reunion 2008 -12Fryeburg Academy, 745 Main Street, Fryeburg, Maine 04037, (207) 935-2001 x 3137, www.fryeburgacademy.org, e-mail-alumni@fryeburgacademy.org

symposium for the equipment he uses to edit video. From there he usually takes back-road routes around the country. He prefers the Western states of Colorado, Utah, Arizona, Wyoming, Montana and the Dakotas. “I hardly ever stay in a campground in the flatlands preferring rest areas and Walmart parking lots. In the mountains I like remote locations at high altitudes. I don’t try to ‘rough it’. I have a small generator, a microwave and, when the occasion calls for it, an air conditioner.”

Bob hopes to head back to Alaska soon and plans to take a 150-mile road called the Ice Field Highway between Banff and Jasper in Alberta, Canada. Bob says, “There are some really outstanding spaces up there.”

Bob reflects on his education and his commitment to education for all and says, “The ability to read, write and speak and stand up in front of a group of people to drive home your message is critical. If you can’t do that, you’ll have difficulty going very far.

While I was growing up during the Depression, my father was at home all the time, working a small subsistence farm, and he put up with me tracking along after him no matter what he was doing. I always felt sorry for the kids whose fathers worked away from home and I still do.”

Bob’s latest project is selling photographs of Fryeburg Academy as a benefit fundraiser for the Fryeburg Academy Alumni Association. See below. Written by Rachel Andrews Damon ‘76

FRYEBURG ACADEMY ALUMNI ASSOCIATION PHOTO FUNDRAISER The first picture (“FA Complex”), taken from across the very well-kept athletic fields, shows most of the new construction that has occurred at Fryeburg Academy over the past 10 - 12 years, much of it within the last five years, and shows what an amazing campus and facility Fryeburg Academy now has to offer. It is truly amazing that all four of these new buildings were built in such a short time and all from the donations of the alumni family and friends of Fryeburg Academy. The two photos below suggest the quality and resolution of the 8.3” x 41.8” (224 p/i) panoramic picture, but to fully appreciate the clarity and detail, the pictures should be seen. Unfortunately for many of you, the pictures are only on display at the Fryeburg Academy Alumni Office or go to the FA Photo Gallery at www.fryeburgacademy.org for a preview.

The second picture (“FA Main Building”) is taken from the Webster Hall dorm and shows the stately Main Building fronted by the magnificently maintained lawn that is testimony to the Academy’s longevity of over 150 years in its present location. The 8.3” x 30.6” (224 p/i) panoramic picture has the same resolution as the “FA Complex”.

These photos are being offered for sale in two forms, rolled and framed. Both pictures are available by US mail and for local pick-up.

Jim Wilfong ‘64, former Under Secretary of the Small Business Administration under President Clinton, is leading an evening seminar on entrepreneurship at Fryeburg Academy. One of several new educational initiatives that have been leading the Academy in new and undiscovered directions, Wilfong’s seminar brings together both the success stories and failures, and the inspiration of today’s industry leaders to inform and excite students. A program of guest speakers enhances his teachings with real-world experiences from today’s marketplace.

Senior students help out with thanking FA donors-David Mead ‘09, Susan Hannes ‘09, Jess DiPietro ‘09 & Dylan Anderson ‘09; Kenedi Hall ‘10 Mandarin Chinese, the number one spoken language in the world, is now in its second academic year as a language offering at Fryeburg Academy. “China is a major force in the world, and in order for our students to be prepared, they need to know more about the rich and varied Chinese culture and particularly their language,” says Headmaster Dan Lee. Greg Huang-Dale and his wife, Jenny Huang-Dale, Fryeburg Academy language teachers, have led the Mandarin program.

The Huang-Dales lived and taught in China for a number of years. Mrs. Huang-Dale studied in China this past summer with the Intensive Summer Language Institute, a training program for American teachers of Chinese language. This program was funded by the US State Department. Mrs. Huang-Dale says, “I think it’s good for students to learn any foreign language.

I have 23 grandchildren! Five of my grandchildren are married and so I have three greatgrandchildren. My biggest career was being a good Mom, a better wife,and active in my Church, community and childrens’ schools. I believe I did those things to the very best of my ability. I attained education for and became an orthotics fitter at age 40. That career was very rewarding. I began my career with M-D Medical and Surgical Supply in Phoenix, AZ and stayed with them for 15 years. I then went into a managerial position for Health ‘n Home and retired from that in 2003. After my husband’s death, I went back to the Phoenix area and went to work for Hanger Prosthetics and Orthopedics. I worked there until end of August when I left to go on this mission. I will be here until about the first of September 2009. I have lived in many places including Charleston, SC; Mesa, AZ; Glendale, CA; Azusa, CA; San Dimas,CA; Hawaii; and Utah. Now in England. I have done many things,worked with many people, met many more, some very famous that I can speak with on a first name basis, but the greatest achievement has been to raise my seven children, all of whom have received degrees (one or more). Hello to everyone at Fryeburg. I wish I were there to see everyone cause I know it will be a blast. E-mail Brenda at: bcasey1079@ gmail.com

The farm has been recently placed on the National Historic Registry. “We’re very honored to be placed on the registry. We are very fortunate, too, in that we have been able to not only live and make a living on the farm all these years, but also to preserve the historic assets of all the farm buildings as well as the land,” said George.

are looking to locally-grown things, and I think we will see more of that, especially with the cost of transportation. You know, the idea of bringing something 1,800 miles for us to eat and what we have to pay to support that will continue to change,” George said.

Throughout the years the Westons dealt in many commodities but were known mostly for dealing in livestock: cattle, sheep, pigs and horses. These animals were bought and sold from the many farms in the rich agricultural community of the Saco River Valley.

Animals were transported by open drives across the countryside and eventually by rail from the Fryeburg station on Smith Street. As the number of farms began to dwindle, so did the need for replacement livestock. The Westons began a dairy, milking registered Holsteins to supplement the fading livestock business. Soon the days of small dairy farms would begin to end as well, which caused the family farm to morph yet again. “My great-grandfather and my grandfather used to do cattle drives, bringing 200 head to market in Boston by road before the railroads. It used to take ten days. Can you imagine? Then my father used to do it by rail and then truck,

anyone living alone to achieve independent living. The program acts as a safety net for anyone who desires the added security of knowing that caring and responsible people are looking after their well-being on a daily basis. One of several volunteer monitors (or a dependable alternate) calls each client on their roster at about the same time every morning – 365 or 366 days a year – without exception. Via that call, it is confirmed that a particular client is up and about with no more aches, pains, or other such nuisances than usual. If a client fails to respond, a subsequent call is placed a short time later; and, if there is still no response, the matter is referred to Kevin. This sets in motion a predetermined set of actions; actions which, although they may vary from client to client, always respect the client’s best interests. When all matters are resolved and all clients are present or accounted for, the program is shelved until the next morning at 8 a.m. Charles LaCasce ’42 started The Fryeburg Good Morning Program in the early 1980s. Although the roster has enrolled as many as three dozen clients at a time, the program currently serves about a dozen clients, and would like to see that number grow. (The Conway Daily Sun)

Fryeburg Academy will always hold a special place for me; perhaps I won’t wait another 25 years before I come back.”

“Aloha fellow classmates and FA Alumni from Laura Lea Knight ‘81, husband Stanford Bacon and sons Maxim (9) and Logan (7) Knight!” The Knight-Bacon family has been turned upside down since mid-2007, when Maxim got into show business! Now Laura and her boys live in California, while Stanford keeps the home fires burning in Hawaii. Laura keeps very busy managing little Max’s blossoming career, which now includes 15 films, a bunch of commercials, and several live performances. You can check him out on www.imdb.com. In April ‘08, Laura and Max flew to New York City to attend the premier of his feature film, “Ball Don’t Lie,” at the Tribeca Film Festival. Then in June, they traveled across the ocean to Romania, where Max acted in a horror film. While there, they toured the Transylvanian Alps, Peles Castle and Bran Castle (a.k.a. “Dracula’s Castle”), among other fascinating cultural sites. Laura especially liked partaking in traditional lunch fare: sausages, mustard, and beer! The film “Slaughter” will be shown all over the country during January’s After Dark Horror Fest as one of “8 Films to Die For.” Most recently, Max starred in a TV movie called “Our First Christmas,” which aired on the Hallmark Channel throughout the 2008 holiday season.

His wonderful scene partner, the lovely Miss Dixie Carter, graciously posed for this photo with Laura!

Little Logan is getting into the act as well. He appeared in the Nick Jr. show “Yo Gabba Gabba,” then Entertainment Channel’s spoof-show “The Soup” aired his hilarious clip!

Fares Lutfi ’99 writes, “Just after graduation, I had a chance to go to the Manhattan John Weston ‘93 runs the family operation College to study business, but it did not really work out and Europe was calling!

Weston’s Farm & Farmstand in Fryeburg.

I actually had to get back to the German High School if I wanted to achieve a German Abitur (equivalent to the High School Diploma) but decided otherwise; I wanted to study, but what?!?! That was the question. So, what most young guys do if they do not know what to study, they will study business. That’s what I did, but in the Netherlands. Did not really work out for me; after one year I quit the college and went back to Germany. I still had to do my military service/social service. In Germany, once you’ve done your high school, you either have to join the army for a year or so, or you have to do some social service. I decided to work with old people; drove them around, did the shopping, changed bandages, etc. I did this for, I believe, 13 months. Then I finally had some time to think about what I want to do. I realized that I like to work with people, like to travel, and learn different cultures. So I decided to study hospitality. I moved to Le Bouveret, a small town by Geneva Lake, in Switzerland. The college was right at the lake with mountains in our back; beautiful place. Learned there the basics in hospitality, some Spanish and French. Did an internship in Zurich for six months. At this point I had been in Switzerland for a year. Our college, however, has a sister-school in Australia, no questions asked!

Sydney (beautiful place, but crazy as well, who wants to study if the beach is calling), achieved my diploma over there but then it was enough. So, I went back to Switzerland, this time to Brig, right by the Matterhorn/Zermatt, which is a nice ski area. Well, we had the Washington State University on our Campus, so I did my BA in business management and hospitality management there. And a year later I received my MBA from our college “Cesar Ritz University.” After that I went back to the States, worked in a hotel in Chicago, stayed there for 1.5 years, came back last October; and now since last December, I am in Vienna, Austria. I am already looking forward, might be going finally to Germany or to Asia. No idea at this point, but my CV is all over the place at the moment.”

Mr. Cram’s long and successful life included his matriculation from their farm in West Baldwin, Maine, to Fryeburg Academy in the fall of 1929, graduating with the Gibson Medal and Scholarship Award in 1933.

From there he attended Bowdoin College where he graduated in 1937 with a B.A. in Economics, and was the first member of his class to find employment. At the behest of Harvey Dow Gibson, Mr. Cram joined the Manufacturer’s Trust Company and moved to New York City. From there, after brief stints at AT&T and in the Army, in 1950 he moved into the world of investment banking, first in the City and later in Poughkeepsie, New York with Estabrook & Co., Spencer Trask, & Co., and Shearson Loeb Rhodes. After retiring in 1982, Mr. Cram and his longtime partner, John H. McCoy, divided their time between their homes in Maine and Florida. They were inseparable and reliant on each other until the very end. One of the highlights of his long life was his happy discovery of philanthropy, dividing his considerable resources between the two schools he Bion R. Cram ‘33 attended and loved, Fryeburg Academy and Bowdoin College. At Bowdoin, a full Economics Professorship is named for Mr. Cram; while in nearby Fryeburg, two magnificent new buildings were made possible through his generosity. First was the Bion R. Cram Library, which was dedicated in 2003 and which has helped transform that small Maine campus. Then, in 2007 and in response to a devastating fire at the school, Mr. Cram dedicated the new Athletic Arena to honor his sister, Ada Cram Wadsworth. He understood the two-way gift of doing things for people while he was alive to see the benefit. To use his favorite expression in summing up his life, “It all worked out fine.”
