The Year of the Self-StudyA quick review of who we are

O FFAND RUNNING...The yearbook staff decided they would explore through pictures

and copy the theme; Who are we? What makes us special? What are some things we do?

We climb mountains and make friends, we bounce soccer balls off our heads, we call home (or girlfriends) often. We cover up on Halloween, we gather waiting forthe bus to take us to town. We learn how to work along with faculty and operate the lights for the Christmas Pageant. Faculty and their children are an integral part of our lives.

What makes us special? We are all about the same age, and we all like to do many of the same things. No one could possibly tabulate the amount of pizza consumed by us on or off campus in one week. We can totally mess up a clean room in record time and yet have it ready for Sunday inspection in half an hour. We can laugh and find silly things to do, and we can misplace a bookbag three times in one day.

We sent some staff out to interview students and faculty. "What is your impression of Cardigan?" The following are some of the quotes:

"Not bad." - Barry Milliken "I like it." - Mike Van Why "It's a great place for sports." - Tony Ward

"Safe, family-oriented." - Mrs. Burnett "A melting pot of the world, nestled in a secluded remote

wilderness. Far enough from civilization to make me yearn for it, but not too far to venture in." - Mr. Ramsby

"Nice place, nice people, nice long vacations." - Mr. Funnell "Very occupied on weekdays and not much to do on the

weekends." - Cedric DuPont

Organization, Gentlemen:How we survive with a little help...

SUPPORT PYRAMIDIf one were only to read about a school such as Cardigan,

the first impression that he would probably get would be one of a strict dungeon where evil teachers work frightened children un- forgivingly. However, this is hardly the real Cardigan. We like to think about Cardigan as a commumity more like a happy family. No one group of people is any more important than another. Every member of the Cardigan community is essential to its smooth operation. From Headmaster Dewar, to students, family, faculty, staff, faculty children, or visiting team-members, each one has his part to play. The Cardigan community means a network of support. Not only to its on-campus members, either. Recently, our Community Service Clubs have made trips to Mary Hitchcock Hospital with students working as patient helpers, helping at the local nursing home and animal shelters, and acting as Big Brothers to local boys as well as being active participants in a major recycling program in Canaan. Programs put on by per­forming groups attract many in the community.

In house, the students live in small dormitory groups, and each floor and house has its own personality and offers each boy a variety of experiences. The dorm-master and his family and/ or the single family master try to make each boy feel a part of a small family unit. The housekeeping staff provide clean and tidy surroundings.

As a student enters Cardigan, a full complement of people try to make his everyday life here important, happy and worth­while. Probably the first person he encounters each day after he leaves the dormitory is a member of the kitchen staff who has prepared breakfast. Next it's off to classes, meeting many teachers. After classes it's off to sports. The science teacher in the morning may now be running a football drill or the math teacher could be running track and field. Most likely every day each student will see Mr. Sherwood Griffin either mowing the lawn or plowing snow, or Mr. Ralph LaPointe and others putting up or taking down the hockey rink. After sports there might be a stop at the school store and the package room and eventually back to the dorm. Should he be under the weather, the school nurse can provide any necessary medical backup. The best part of any day would be receiving a phone call from the folks at home. This ends another Cardigan day and completes the Cardigan pyramid of support-the Cardigan community.

The next two color pages (8 & 9) show one of these pyramids. The staff selected a representative student from the sixth grade, Mike Garrison, and tried to show all of the people who try to help him get through his life here at Cardigan. It was a difficult job, and we never managed to get all the necessary people together at the same time. With these two photos and the additional mention of Mr. & Mrs. Edilberto Ramos (Dormmaster), Jeff Haskins (Floor Leader), and Mrs. Rosalind Burke (School Nurse), we hope we have represented most of those who help Mike. There is really an impressive number of people behind each student.

Classes Starting At 7:30Adaptability is the lesson of the day

CAN WE STILL COPE?Cardigan students are nothing if they aren't adaptable.

Things may seem to have gotten a little bizarre when we went on the winter schedule. After all, who can deal with an egg at 6:40 in the morning, or memorize a schedule of classes with starting times like 8:12 and 8:54, or wait for lunch until 12:55? Somehow we all survived and throve to enjoy the winter season with the extra time for sports.

Cardigan students also learn to live with a wide variety of people from many cultures. The socially more open students from the West and the South learn to appreciate the more reserved New Englanders and vice versa. The students from outside the country learn more about American society and teach their fellow students about their own societies. They also learn to live with several different people at one time in the dorm setting and get to know the ways of their roommates under the best and the worst circumstances. They do learn how to share space and respect others' space.

They also tackle sports they may never have played before. Many a student from New Orleans has learned alpine skiing or to play hockey. Young men who've never seen a lacrosse stick before become varsity players.

Students also adapt by taking more responsibility for their own lives. They begin establishing their independence in the move into adulthood. They take care of their own room and sometimes even pass inspection. They handle job responsibili­ties. They even get to class on time. They manage airports and travel. In short, Cardigan students are very adaptable.

Perspective - It's no Ivory Tower:The larger community

CMS WORLD VIEWEven though Cardigan is located in a rural environment and

is free of many of the distractions of the larger world, it is by no means an Ivory Tower. It is also part of the larger world commu­nity. This seemed especially true this year with the many historic events which became a part of both our academic work and our personal lives. The year started off on an upbeat note with the changes in the Eastern Bloc which led to a transformation in perspective about The Cold War and signs of growing independ­ence. Talk of peace and a reduction in the arms race filled the media as Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev and President Bush shook hands at the beginning of the summer in 1990. Nelson Mandela toured the United States after his release from prison and talked of an end to discrimination on the basis of race. The 20th Anniversary of Earth Day and environmental concerns

dominated much of the media. David H. Souter, a judge from New Hampshire, became history's 105th Supreme Court Justice in October, and he pledged to "do equal right to the poor and the rich."

However, by mid-October U. S. troops were leaving for the Middle East in response to Saddam Hussein and Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. By January, 1991 the U.S. and the Allied troops had begun heavy air strikes in both Iraq and Kuwait. Environmental­ists were fighting to save the Persian Gulf from a huge oil slick and oil field fires, and the nation was feeling the pressure of a severe economic decline. Cardigan graduates were on the front lines of the Persian Gulf War. Many faculty, staff, and students had family or friends who were actively engaged in the campaign or who lived in the areas affected. The War dominated the news and became part of the daily discussion on campus. Little known countries in the Middle East took on new importance in history classes where teachers strove to give the students some per­spective on the world situation. The possible dissolution of the U.S.S.R. and the trials of President Gorbachev were history in the making for these same classes. The media were filled with articles about teachers and parents needing to relieve the war stress of students, however Cardigan had already begun to help everyone cope with the world changes and to provide them with the education to understand what was happening in the larger world.

A LONG DAY IN THE LIFE OF A CARDIGAN STUDENT:

Monday, January 21 began with a "B" schedule and a special program acknowledging IVIartin Luther King Day. Students saw "Amazing Grace," a movie about Martin Lu­ther King's life which included his prayers that the United States get out of Vietnam and scenes from the 60's peace movement. They then took part in small discussion groups on the topic of "Am I My Brother's Keeper?" This was followed by the introduction of the proposed school constitution by Erik Oberg, Derek White, and Mr. Burnett. Then there was another film, "Weapons of the Spirit", which was about the people of a small French village who managed to save the lives of thousands of Jews who were in danger from Hitler and the Nazis. At the same time, it was the sixth day of the Persian Gulf War, and newsflashes from the Middle East were shown on the big screen between movies and during breaks. The Cardigan student was getting the world view in a big dose.

W ' e often forget that at the cen­ter of all we do at Cardigan is the

basic proposition that an education is to be valued. Sometimes we learn when we don't know we're learning: sometimes we learn when we don't want to learn; and sometimes we even get excited about learn ing. We learn in many different settings: the classroom, the theater, field trips, in contests, and through practical applications of new skills.

The new program in foreign languages was quite successful this year and provided op­portunities for more

students to take classes in this area. The mate­rial presented in the science classes led to several school-wide or class guest speakers and trips. Dr. Richard Chamberlain talked to the whole school about his new theory on how mountains are formed. A member of the crew who work at the top of chilly Mt. Washington showed s lides and talked about weather predicting from that station. Mike Mansur, a spelunker, talked about

his caving experiences and his part in the rescue of a team member from Lechuguilla Cavern. Dr. Wizard provided a pro­gram using e v e r y d a y h o u s e h o ld items to un­derstand sci­ence con ­cepts. There was a laser ligh t show. Science classes used the sur­rounding area to explore their world. There was a geology trip with Dr. Ken­neth Hardcastle, a trip to the electron microscope lab at Dartmouth, the sixth grade went to the Cape for environmental studies, biology students visited Squam Lakes Science Center for plant and wild­life study. In addition, all the students explored ar­eas on campus with their science classes and par­ticipated in Earth Aware­ness Day. Seniors in his­tory explored Hammond Castle, and the student body watched a play called "Give 'Em Hell Harry" that provided in­sight into Harry S. Tru­man and his historic pe­riod. Social Studies pro­grams included the events at the Martin Luther King Day, a visit from a state police canine unit who talked about the use of dogs in police work and Lawyer Mike Larson pro­vided information about our relationship to the law. Music and English pro­

grams such as "Amahl and the Night Visitors", "Mid­summer Night's Dream", a brass quintet, a trumpet and organ recital with Rev­erend Harold Finkbeiner and Dr. Walter Chestnut, the amusing and involv­ing storyteller Odds Bod­kins, and the movie and productions of "Highwa- ter", "Stage Fright", and "M ystery, Mayhem, & Murder" all provided en­tertainment and learning experiences.

There are many satis­fying moments: making honor roll,finishing aterm paper, being acknowl­edged publicly for our ef­forts; however, the impor­tance of much of what we are learning won't be clear to us for a long time. The list of awards received just this year is quite long.

Sixteen hardworking students earned High Honor Roll standing this year. Seventy earned Honor Roll grades. The Effort Honor Roll number reached seventy-tw o . Students competed twice in the nationwide Knowl­edge Masters Tourna­ment middle-school con­

test. Re­sults both times were first place in the state

and 13th in the nation. Aaron Pena won the Spell­ing Bee both times. The Yellow Jackets (fourteam- mates Phil Jolles,David M a r c h a n d , J o e y G onzalez, and Jason

Calder) won the Earth in Jeopardy Contest during Earth Awareness Day. This year's Math Counts Team was also success­ful; however, they learned the significance of small num bers when they missed the state final by only 5 tenths of a percent. The seventh grade his­tory class took second place in the State of New Hampshire at the Social Studies Quiz Bowl. Park Burger represented the school at the state level in the nationwide Geogra­phy Bee. Many outstand­ing seniors have been ac­

knowledged at graduation and appear on the prize page of this Blaze. Fac­ulty were also honored this year, inc lud ing Mrs. Scanlan who received the C o lone l's Award, the State of Kentucky's high­est award for contributions to the community, state, or nation, and for special achievements.

When we look back over the number of edu­cational opportun ities both in and outside the classroom, we see a list we can 't adequate ly cover. Many special pro­grams and efforts made by faculty still have not been acknowledged. The school's goal to provide a well-rounded academic environment is being met.

THE BLAZE CLUB

ADVISOR'S NOTE: After all their hard work, the Blaze Staff fell prey to one of the curses of the publishing business--the vital picture which simply doesn't come out. The entire roll was double exposed. If you look carefully, the staff is there in the background-sideways. My apologies to them, and my many thanks for their vital help in seeing that this yearbook got to the publisher. Please see page 2 for staff credits.

STAFF NOTE: There are several addi­tional thank-you's necessary: William Bar­ron, Judith Mathews, and Elizabeth Alex­ander for their excellent proofreading. Dudley Clark and Fred Dorrance for

generously allowing us to use their comput­ers and printers. Jim O'Keefe and Karen Starriha of Josten's fortheir invaluable advice and last minute saves. The staff and pho­tographers at Yearbook Associates for the wonderful pictures and timely delivery. The staff at the Mascoma Valley Messenger for use of their laser printer, computer time, and th e ir he lp fu lness. Tom Sutro , Dave McCusker, and Tom Avril for their help in taking so many pictures. The staff at Slide Specialists and 60 Minute Photo for care­fully and quickly developing many of our photos. And finally to all of those who filled in and gave us the time to get this job done. This book would not be possible without all of you.

T he variety of ac­tivities on cam­pus each year makes it difficult to report everything. Stu­

dents participate in both the performing arts pro­gram and the Christmas Pageant which are pre­sented to the entire school. There is the club program which keeps ev­eryone busy Thursday afternoons. Each student takes two activities or one activity for two periods. Many of the clubs will

appear under the section on service organizations: however, activities also include horseback riding, quilting, mountain biking, conditioning, instructional tennis, lake running, fly tying, windsurfing, mov­ies, points of interest trips, board games, art experi­ences, and much more. Activities outside the club program are also varied. There are town trips, three dances, pizza parties, dinners forspecial awards

such as Honor Roll or the cleanest dorms, trips to college and pro games, and the everfamous mys­tery trips. There are less organized activities such as hanging out in the dorms, trips out for dinner with faculty, ball games in front of the dorms, and timejustspentwith friends or teachers. There are also those moments spent alone w ith your own thoughts. Any day is a full day at Cardigan.

IIIT he club program

at CMS has Been around for years; however, now many ofthe students have

broadened their horizons by placing special empha­sis on community service organizations. Each week on Thursday, the van heads off to Mary Hitch­cock Hospital to visit the pediatrics ward to help young patients. Another group heads to a nursing home and brightens an­o ther pe rson 's day. Meanwhile some s tu ­dents go to the Animal Rescue League to walk dogs and learn more about pet care. Still oth­ers travel to the Carter Community Building to participate in a Life Sav­ing Course in hopes of securing jobs during the summer at a local pool or beach and to learn the skills they need to care for

people around water. The A m ateur Radio Club learns to aid commui lica- tion between many groups of people and is ready to serve in times of need. Back on the cam­pus, the Recycling Club goes from dorm to dorm gathering aluminum cans and other recyclables to take to the local recycling center. The Big Brother Club entertains and plans activities for some boys from the local grammar school. Another group is in the Alumni Office sort­ing old pictures and start­ing the CMS archives. The Glee Club has been en­tertaining at Chapel and special events for many years and continue to perform regularly. There are two bands which have performed this year. A stu­dent band called "Peoples of Kenya" played during the talent show and the

facu lty band ca lled "Grades and Comments" were part of the Earth Day celebration and an as­sem bly. Another new service organization this year is the Green Key Club, students chosen by the faculty to lead tours for visitors on campus. Students from Cardigan also worked this year to earn money for several other organizations in­c lud ing the M uscular Dystrophy Association and the MS Foundation. There are also the ongo­ing service organizations who help take care of hospitality and entertain­ment on campus, includ­ing the A-V Crew and the Reception Committee. Cardigan students have made a real contribution to the larger community around the school and have been of great bene­fit here on campus.

Varsity Soccer had another successful season. The team was lead by coaches Mr, Brier and Mr. Richmond. The team captains were Chris Simons, Deron Quint, and Matt Daly. The team had a 10-7-1 record which is remarkable for a 50% underclass­man team. They ended the undefeated streaks of the Holderness Preps and the KUA JV's. The team had a fifth place finish at the New England Junior Prep School Tournament at Eaglebrook, where Deron Quint scored an outstanding eight goals. The team dedicated their efforts for the day to Jeff Barclay '88 who died in the summer of 1990.

J. V. Soccer was a team that started from scratch and went on to have five members selected to the All-Tournament Team at the Cardigan J.V. Tourna­ment: Tyler Browning, Alberto Curis, Agustin Gar­cia, David Pucci, and Mike VanWhy. With several newcomers, the team got off to a shaky start, but, as the year progressed, they pulled together by work­ing with each other and supporting those on the team who needed help. Captain Derek White said, “I thought the team this year started out pretty slowly, but with great coaching and team spirit, we started to pull together and work as a team.”

Page 57: The Blaze - 1991

A 7-3-2 record is something to be proud of. This is what the Reserve A Soccer Team accomplished this year under the able coaching of Mr. Hyde and Mr. Beaupre. Although they seemed to have a casual appearance during practice sessions, when it came time for the games, it was obvious that they were a team that could work together to achieve a common goal. This kind of training will hopefully prepare many of them for next year's J.V. team. It was both an enjoyable and successful season.

o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

Although they started the season with a bang by winning the first game, it was not until later that Reserve B Soccer was able to record a second victory. Along the way, the team focused on three goals: good attitude towards the game, the oppo­nents, and fellow teammates; cooperation and spirit. Despite the poor record, the success in reaching these goals will help many players become successful as they play on more experienced teams next year.

The Varsity F o o t b a l l Team enjoyed a successful 6-2-1 season. The Cougars' j offense featured a punishing ground game led by running backs Scott Path and Joey Gonzalez. The pass­ing combination of Erik Oberg to ends Scott Horvath and Aaron Pena also proved effective. The defensive unit was a typical Mr. Marrion style unit, hardhitting and stingy, leading to three shutouts. Next year's team will have a hard act to follow, but many returning players have les­sons to bring back in1991.

Thanks to the efforts of Mr. Mars and Mr. Burnett to design a new course, the Cardigan Cross-Country Team was able to host four home meets this year. Being able to run on our own course added much more excitement to the competition. It was great to be able to have some of the home crowd cheering us on.

Although Chris VanderPoel was the outstanding runner for the team, others such as Micah Glauberman and Sam Shatkin showed considerable im­provement.

On Parents' Weekend, cross-country was the only team to emerge victo­rious. Another new experience was participating in the Eaglebrook Invita­tional Junior Cross-Country Tournament. The advent of a flat tire on the trip home made the experience memorable to all.

• • • • • • • • • • •With Mr. Hart as the seasoned veteran and Mr. Macdonald as the man with

new ideas, the Intramurals group was able to participate in a wide variety of activities. The group of twelve boys were able to experience such wide-ranging

_____________ sports as trap and target shooting, bowling, flagfootball, ultimate frisbee, hiking, and spelunking. The exceptionally fine weather added to the plea- sure of these activities.

• • • • • • • • • •As a result of the dynamic coaching of Mr.

Phelps, Mr. Ris, and Mr. Goodrich, this turned out to be an adventurous year for Rocks and Ropes. The addition of Mr. Morse's new WALL aided in the training.

VARSITY WRESTLING: A record 32 wrestlers participated in both the J V and Varsity program. Led by senior captains Fred Barney, Jose Gonzalez, and Aaron Pena, the var­sity compiled a 9-2 record, best in the 11-year history of CMS wres­tling. Our team performance at the tournaments set new records as well; Cardigan (4th place; 9 place-win- ners); Lakes Region (6th; 5); Fessen­den (2nd, 10); Eaglebrook (4 cham­pions; 7 places). Jose Gonzalez '91 was named Outstanding Wrestler at the secondary school Lakes Region Tournament, thefirst Cardigan wres­tler so honored. There were several individual tournament champions: Gonzalez (C, LR, E); Katchen (LR, E); Pena (C,E); Pucci (F); and Vander- Poel (E). Our second-place finish at the Fessenden Tournament meant we were runners-up for the New England Jr. Prep School Wrestling Association title. Aaron Pena earned the 1991 NEJPWA Sportsmanship Award. 1990-91 awards: MVP - Jose Gonzalez; MIP- Dan Bettis; Coaches Award - Carter Katchen.

JV WRESTLING: Captains Mike Kramer and Barry Milliken, Most Im­proved, led this enthusiastic group of first-year wrestlers to a 5-7 dual meet record. All 6th and 7th graders participated in the Fay Tournament, where Evan deBourguignon and Phil McNeill were individual champions. Twelve J V and Varsity wrestlers trav­eled to Montreal over long weekend, where they won 22 out of 26 frees­tyle matches. Team MVP Chad Cline won a team-record four bouts in one dual meet. All look forward to con­tinuing Cardigan's winning tradition next year at the varsity level.

Mr. Lynch (Coach).

Varsity Basketball had a winning record of 10-8. The team got off to a fast start as we won our first five games in a row. Unfortunately, we lost our point guard Gray Thouron halfway through the season. After that, the team struggled for awhile until we played our biggest game of the year--Kearsarge. The team ral­lied as we beat what was probably our best competition of the year in a 61 to 41 win on Parents' Weekend.

During the year the team learned several important concepts from Mr. Lynch and Mr. Ramos: The impor­tance of intensity, hard work, and hustle. Another Important lesson that we learned was that it does not matter who scores the points, but whether the team as a whole played hard. We also learned that these traits will help us in life as well as other sports.

J.V. Basketball had a learning ex­perience as well as a good time together. Joey Rivera was main man carrying the ball. Good shooting by Duke Whitman, Andy Martinez, and Jr. Rivera kept us in many games. Hustling up and down the court were Jason Calder and Elliot Rooks. James Ho gave us strong support at wing and Greg Spencer provided great entertainment with his banana shots. Leighton D’Antoni was our rebounding gorilla underneath the basket.

Thanks to Mr. Ramsby and Mr. Sutro for coaching and Mrs. Dewar and the reception crew for their work. Special thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Small for their enthusiastic attendance at our home games.

This year was a rebuilding year fo r th e f a i r l y y o u n g and inexperienced Alpine A & B Ski Teams. We only had five returning skiers from last year. The team's age was well diversified with nine seniors, two eighth graders, two seventh graders, and a sixth grader. The A team this year raced against Lakes Region B teams while the B team raced against C teams. We finished 3rd or 4th con­sistently. We always had good coaching from Mr. Richmond and Mr. Gregg.

This year's Snowboarding Team, introduced by popular de­mand, was Cardigan's first. Al­though they had a slow start, the team wrapped up the season on a strong note. The team was com­prised of 2 experienced riders:Ryan Mitchell and Leigh Otzen, and 3 inexperienced riders; Joe Haus- ner, Billy Lockwood, and Rich Langhammer. The team competed in two away meets and one home meet at Ragged Mountain in which they placed 18th out of 26. Extra help was provided by Mr. Brier, Mr.Werden, and Mr. Mars.

o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

This year the Nordic Team has done very well! Cardigan is the only junior prep school in the Lakes Region nordic meets. In our first meet, Bryan Colket did well when he finished and placed. Chris Pastore and Aaron Silberdick the season not knowing much about nordic skiing and ended with a great deal of experience in the sport. Our coach Rod Theobald taught us everything he knew and did a great job. Our second coach Dave Goodrich improved our tech­niques for hill and lake skiing. Derek Wijsenbeek joined the team late; however, he improved quickly. Andrew Lakin was fast in the races. The whole team had a very good season and did very well in the Lakes Region Meet.

o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

Rec Skiing had some ups and some downs this year. Ragged helped out a great deal with the first rate grooming of their slopes. In the downs, we had several injuries, including Rodrigo Aguilar's twenty meter jump right into the trees and Burke Byer’s personal encounter with the water pipe. Despite these setbacks, we had a lot of fun, and, for the first time, the annual single file processional was an amaz­ing success. The bus drivers, Mr. Morse and Mr. Hart, were always in competition to get home first, but due to a handi­cap with the initials J.B., Mr. Hart won almost every time. It was truly a rocking season with Little Feat, Buffalo Spring­field, and others. Peace in the World; War on the Slopes!

Led by Captains Oberg and Path, the Varsity Baseball Team had an outstanding season ending at 16-2. The coaches felt that it was a fun teanfi to work with as the players were very cooperative and had a positive attitude. The schedule was very full, and the team played some very strong opponents such as Lebanon and Bow Memorial. The last New Hampton game {Cardigan had beaten them before) and the Eaglebrook game were the only disappointments. Erik Oberg earned M.V.P. for the season. M.I.P was Ryan Leonard who the coaches felt had come a long way in developing his self-control and his skills as a catcher. Eighth grader Deron Quint won the Coaches' Award. This had been a young team with only 6 ninth graders, so many, like Deron, will return to support the team next year. "We (the coaches) were very satisfied with the performance, attitude, and play of this team," said Coach Marrion.

Needless to say, it was a struggling season with only 4 wins and 11 loses for the J. V. Baseball Team. Morgan Fisher, our Roger Clemens, led the pitchers. Alex Offutt and Morgan Fisher were the offensive threat. Dave Marchand and Nick Neuberg were speedy base runners. Fielding was suspect; how­ever, play did improve, and most of the team will be back to play another year.

The Reserve Baseball Team had it all, the only problem was that they couldn't hit. In the first six games the team only had six base hits. Coaches Macdonald and Beaupre decided to go back to a bat­ting T in practice, and that proved to be the key. The team went on to win four out of the last five games, and finished the season with an exciting win against Eaglebrook in a 9-5 game.

This year Varsity Lacrosse had a young team with very few returning players. In addition, some players jumped from the Reserves to be top- notch players. Despite all these new players, it was a very successful season with only two losses. The group worked together to produce a fast, well-oiled machine with good coordination and ball-handling.

J. V. Lacrosse was a strong team led by Cap­tains Pierre Pauporte at attack and Fred Dorrance at mid-field. Teaming with Pauporte at attack were Peter Allatt and Chris Pastore with support from Cary Long and Kevin Joy. The mid-fielders excelled on ground balls, especially the first unit of Dorrance, Jason Dewar, and Mike Van Why. The second unit of Eric Greenfield, Ryan Mitchell, and Jay Strasenburgh specialized in defensive situations and moved the ball up field well. On de­fense, Nick Swogger backstopped the team with exceptional netmlnding while Pat Judge, Leighton D'Antoni, Dave Carter, and Barry Milliken kept shots to a minimum. Ryan Mitchell also stepped in to help in goal and on offense when he was needed.

The Reserve Lacrosse Team was a very small team of twelve boys who had never played the sport be­fore; however, despite this, they went on to beat most of their opponents. In their 5-1 season Joey Rivera scored 19 goals. The team aver­aged 7.8 goals per game, and Goalie Jason Driesbach had two shutouts and the opponents only scored an average of 1.6 goals per game against him. One bonus of the training given by Coaches Brier, Theobald, and Kahn was that this team's stick skills were su­perior compared to other teams.This was the result of being trained using both the left and the right hands. The coaches were very pleased with the team, not only in terms of wins and losses, but also in terms of skill and spirit. As Coach Brier put it, "The future looks bright for Cardigan lacrosse."

This year the Sailing Team was excited over the arrival of the eight new Flying Juniors (FJ's) and the new Whaler. The early ice-out enabled the team to get on the water sooner in the season. The five returning sailors were Errol Laumann, Karl Hutter, Christian Edwards, David Costa, and Randy Schubert. New to the team were Nate Whitaker, a California sailor, and Andy Scott. The able crew consisted of Park Burger, David Cook, Yarrow Thorne, Sean Greer, Zack Turner, and Bryan Colket.

Led by letterman and captain Fred Barney, as well as tri-captains Scott Horvath and Carter Katchen, the spring 1991 Tracit and Field Team improved steadily, outpointing Gilford the week after Gilford won the 1991 junior high states. Coaches Avril and Barron were pleased to see the record number of participants (16). The best performers: Matt Crane (shot-put, javelin, discus); Eli Guiterman (high jump, long jump, shot put); Fred Barney (pole vault, jave­lin, discus).

THE FINAL COUNTDOWN...rushing toward graduation

The feeling of anticipation of graduation escalated as soon as the Induction Cere­mony was performed. Students and faculty had gathered in the Chapel to see Mr. Dewar, Erik O berg, and the incom ing School Leader Brandon Wag­ner announce the new school leaders for the 1991-1992 school year. The review week went quickly and ended with the Baccalaurate Sunday in Chapel where the senior class is received for the last time by the whole school. Now final exams were a fact. Seniors on the borderline crammed, while some others busily calculated how few points they had to make to pass their courses. Some students had theirthings already packed and over to the mailroom. For most though, it became a time to dump ex­cess baggage and try to get the overstuffed trunks closed. Spring Awards Assembly was held on a Tuesday. Next day

was the last day of finals and the seniors climbed Mt. Cardi­gan which brought them full- circle from their first climb as new students. After finals, the last day of class was spent going over grades and final exams. At the end of each period cheers of "no more his­tory, no more science, no more..." could be heard across campus. Late that afternoon was the Recognition Ceremony where all the awards for sports, clean rooms, and academics were presented and the Senior Class of 1991 dedicated their yearbook. Many underclass­men left campus that evening and the seniors remained for their first graduation practice- which left advisors anxious about how they would do on Saturday. The rest of the un­derclassmen except the wait­ers, ushers, and marshals were offcampusbynoon. During the day Friday, the seniors hung out together or spent time with

their families. Then came the Senior Banquet which had several special presentations: the senior gift to the athletic de­partment; the parents' commit­tee gift, presented by Mr. Haskins to Mrs. Shelton, of a new desk for the library; the thank-you acknowledgements and gifts to all those who helped the class, pa rticu la rly the Greenwoods and the Ris'; and sadly the presentation of his certificate of graduation to Kai Hirvonen who could not re­main in the country for the graduation ceremony. Next was the Senior Talent Show with M.C. Kermitthe Frog (Mr. Gregg) and some fine perform­ances by the senior class as 'short' people, boxer shorted cabaret dancers, belly-buttons, and much more. The Green­woods then presented the Senior Slide Show. It was a short night in the gym for ev­eryone was exhausted, and graduation was in a few hours.

1991 BLAZE

Leona Irene FiskeWhat do these all have in common? The numbers twenty-four, thirty-nine thousand six hundred

and ten, or eighty. Or the colors green, red and white check, and white? Or the places Kenerson, the dining room, the kitchen? Or the people Larry, Mr. Wakely, Clancy, Pop, Mr. Dewar? The common ingredient is one person. There is a number for the years of her cheerful duty, for the number of meals she served, for the special events she helped arrange. The colors are the colored table cloths she always had over her arm. The places are where this person worked, and the people are some of those with whom she worked in her years of dedicated service to Cardigan. Her good humor, love, devotion, pride, concern, and professionalism are what made her special. As one senior put it so well, "She loved all her kitchen helpers." And we all in turn loved her.

The 1991 Senior Class is proud to award the Blaze Dedication to you, Mrs.Leona Fiske.

DEDICATION

William Xavier BarronQuietly he goes about his job as teacher, coach, dormmaster, confidant, and friend. He listens

when others won't. He cares when you have a bad day, when you fall behind in your studies. He's understanding. As one senior said, "He's always there when you need help. He also helps when you don't need it." His dedication to his sports goes beyond the call, and the students on his teams learn a great deal about themselves and test their limits. In the classroom, each student is allowed to express himself and learns to take risks. In addition, this man's love and devotion to his animals has touched us all.

For eleven years of dedicated service, Mr. William Xavier Barron, the 1991 Senior Class is proud to honor you with the Blaze Dedication.
