Headmasters Message One of the compensations for getting on in years is the ability to look back
over a year as one link in a long chain, and to compare it to those that have gone
before. Although the years are similar in many ways, each has its own characteris
tics, and is colored for each of us by the success or failure that the year may have
brought, and by any personal tragedy that we may have suffered. W e are likely
to speak of a year as being a good one or a bad one according to the proportions of
difficulty that we may have had. Good or bad, as we get older they seem shorter
and more precious. Trouble we learn to accept as an inevitable part of our lives, so
that w e can relish the triumphs, small and large, that may have come to us.
For a school like Proctor, a year is colored to no small extent by the calibre of
the senior class. Their leadership and example have not only set the pattern for the
year that has passed, but have a kind of immortality in their effect upon the classes
behind them, who in turn will affect others. The Class of 1963 has been a strong
one. There have been cases of poor judgment by individuals, but this is natural,
and can be classified as learning the hard way. The leadership of the class seems
to m e to have been positive, and its influence good. Its effect upon the underclass
men remains to be seen. The academic achievement of the class, and its record in
college admissions is the best that w e have had. W e have watched the members of
the class mature in every way, and with pride we send them on to college.
Mrs. Farrell and I are increasingly aware that very soon we will greet the fresh
man class with w h o m we, too, will graduate.
5
One of the definitions of man that I like best is that
"he is a culture-making animal". What w e have remembered as well as what w e may have forgot
ten taken together binds a group or a people into
a cohesive unit and molds the lives and personal
ities of its members. Here at Proctor Academy you
have been exposed to religion, art, technical subject matter, ethical codes, and ways of doing
things. All of these present ancient and honorable
ways of thinking; and as well you have begun to
develop your own modern kind of thoughts and
feelings. It is within such a culture that man's spirit or soul develops.
As you may have recognized, there is a great con
troversy going on today about "two cultures",
technical and humanistic, with the idea prevalent
that never shall the two meet. Much about your
future will depend upon your willingness to strug
gle with this issue. I very much doubt the validity
of the "two culture" idea, f think each responsible
member of society shares a common tradition as
surely as he has a common obligation. One of tire
present dangers to our society is the suggestion
that science and technology serve ends that are
different from our common purpose.
Is not our common obligation and purpose to accomplish a desired result with the least expendi
ture of money, time and physical output to the end
that our resources, time and energies can be avail
able for further advances of all mankind? Of
course w e need today's scientists to lead us down
unknown paths and the engineers to teach us how
to use newly created machines, but equally vital to
modern culture is the sociologist to gauge the im
pact of change, the philosopher to see new values
and the religious thinker to help us keep alive our divine spark!
It is with such thoughts in mind that the Proctor
Trustees, along with the many fiscal and policy
matters demanding their attention, show a deep
concern for the progress each student makes as he
spends a few years under the influence of our
Proctor community. Each of you know it is the
natural beauty of our campus set in the rolling
hills of N e w Hampshire, the instructors and fellow
students—but most of all you yourself—that makes the Proctor Spirit come alive each year. W e , as
Trustees, are trying to do our part as best w e know how, and trust that you too feel proud of your contribution to our common purpose.

VARSITY FOOTBALL RECORD
Phillips Andover J.V. 0-0
Berwick 12-14 Monadnock 0—6
Fryberg 6—18 Tilton 6-22
Holderness 0—14
This year's Varsity Football team had one of its
most disappointing seasons. Although no games
were won, the team benefitted from its experi
ences on and off the field.
The first game was played in a hurricane at
Phillips Andover, and the game ended in a tie with
Proctor holding Andover twice inside the five
yard line.
The following Saturday Proctor played host to
Berwick. W e scored first on a five yard run by
Captain Laundon, then led 12-0 as a ten yard pass
from Foster to Van Ness worked for a score. Ber
wick scored twice in the second half to win
14-12.
The team next travelled to Monadnock High
School. With the temperature in the nineties,
Proctor had trouble getting started, and lost the
game in the final minutes 6—0.
The next week Proctor made a long trip to Fry
berg, Maine, to play before a H o m e Coming
crowd. Fryberg scored three times in the first half,
but Proctor roared back with a score by Laundon,
but again ran out of time.
With the Tilton game came the girls and snow,
as we faced our heaviest opponent. Foster scored
our lone touchdown as Proctor was trounced
22—6. The final game was played against our
arch-rival, Holderness, in the rain, and, in spite of
all our efforts, Holderness won.
Although the team was beaten in the score col
umn, it never lost its courage and desire. Captain
Laundon deserves special credit for his strong
leadership. W e hope next year's team will start
Proctor's winning tradition again.

Junior Varsity Football The Junior Varsity Football Team, although it
won only five of its nine games, still profited from
its season. The team started the season with
twenty-two boys, old Beserves and new players,
who had a common desire to learn how to play
football. Through this desire, Mr. Curtis' squat
jumps, and Mr. Wilson's patience, this score of
boys was welded into a football team.
The first game, against Laconia, was played on
a rainy, windy day at home. The running of
Mayo, Davock, and Fuller was able to gain Proc
tor a victory by two points.
The next Wednesday we played Tilton.
Through the passing arm of Fuller, and the
catching hands of Townsend Gilbert, we de
feated them 21 to 12.
The season soon turned into the regular monot
ony of practice for a game, then play a game. But
the boys, led by co-captains Fuller and Rosenthal,
practised and played well. Although we were
playing teams for which a few years ago we were
certainly no match, we were able to pile up three
more victories before the end of the season.
After defeating Cardigan Mountain School 27—
0, we obtained our last hard-fought victory. Mr.
Curtis was gang-tackled and dragged to the
locker room where he gave us a demonstration of
squat jumps in a cold shower.
But victories weren't the only thing we ob
tained. Because of the coaching of Mr. Wilson
and Mr. Curtis, many of this year's J.-V.'s will be
on next year's varsity. They learned how to play
football. Not only did they learn how to block
and tackle, but they learned the importance of
working, working hard, and working together.

New Hampton 0—8
Holderness 40—0 Tilton P.A.L. 30-0
From the very beginning the "Binky Dinks"
showed tremendous potential, but it took the
guidance of our coaches, Mr. Cole and Mr. Arm
strong, to bring this quality to light. Probably the
most important factor in the team's outstanding
performances was that the team owed its victories
to no one member.
Our first scheduled game was fought on home
soil against N e w Hampton. During the opening
minutes of the game Newell raced 80 yards, with
Sprague blocking, to score the first touchdown. In
the final period Carl Pate intercepted a pass from
the N e w Hampton quarterback and ran 50 yards
for the score. This ended the game 12-0 in favor
of Proctor.
W e had no trouble with our next three oppo
nents. The team edged-out our traditional rival,
Holderness, by a score of 6—0, and went on to
defeat Cardigan Mountain and Tilton.
It was a dismal afternoon as w e left for N e w
Hampton, but our spirits were high and most of
us were a little overconfident. Our confidence was
part of our undoing. The game went scoreless
until just before the half when N e w Hampton un
leashed a powerful passing attack which eventu
ally produced a score. The rest of the game was
scoreless, and w e were defeated 8—0.
The team took its loss very seriously, for it next
beat Holderness by a score of 40—0. Our last
game was with the Tilton Police Athletic League,
and although the score was 30—0, the game
wasn't as one sided as it sounds. The "Rinks" had
a great season, and w e are all indebted to our co-
captains, Newell and Sprague.

With 4 wins, 7 losses and a tie, the Proctor
Hockey season ended for the 62-63 year. Although
not as impressive a record as most people would
have liked to have seen, this year's team never
gave up.
The first game turned out to be a thriller. Due
to lack of practice, we came out on the short side
of a 2 to 1 score against Berwick at the U. N. H.
rink.
One of the toughest competitors we met all sea
son was Brewster. O n home ice, we played them
for the first time and lost 5 to 1. Later in the sea
son they defeated us 9 to 1 at Brewster.
Hanover was next. Although they were small,
size was not an issue, and they turned out to be a
hard-fighting club. At the end of a tough game
they were defeated 4 to 1.
It was being said, "Raymond Mathews, who's
he?" That's what we were wondering when we
met Tilton for the first time, and it was not long
before we found out. Tilton's captain seemed to
hold an undetermined amount of energy in lead
ing his team, and they defeated us 6 to 1 and 11
to 1. Although we fought hard, we were unable to
contain this powerful skater and his teammates.
W e never gave up our desire to knock this team
off, and because of this, we gained new respect
in their eyes. After a loss to N e w Hampton of 9 to
3, we defeated Lawrence, in a puddle, at their
home rink.
Traveling to Holderness, we lost a hard-fought
game 4 to 0. High spirited Proctor was ready for
them at Winter Carnival, however. Led by our
co-captain, Brownell, we overpowered them 3 to
2, which proved to be the highlight of the season.
The team will miss our co-captains, Kendall
and Brownell, but with many talented underclass
men, next year's team should prove to be a strong
one.
41
Junior Varsity Hockey When the members of the Junior Varsity
Hockey team returned from Christmas Vacation,
they, unfortunately were greeted with no ice.
Therefore a game called "Gill Ball" was impro
vised instead. Gill Ball was devised so as to de
velop hockey skills and techniques off the ice.
After numerous exercises and long runs through
the woods we were ready for the ice. Soon it ap
peared and we began to start our drills with great
enthusiasm and perseverance.
After two days of practice had gone by we
found ourselves confronted with our first game.
W e traveled away to play Berwick, and after a
long hard game the score read; Proctor 1, Ber
wick 1. Tex Hughes scored the goal for die team
that day.
It became quite inescapable to our coach, Mr.
Curtis, that the team needed now more than ever,
a great deal of practice individually, and as a
group. Gradually the team took shape with po
tential coming from as far away as Alabama. W e
lost to our traditional rival, Holderness but re
deemed ourselves by beating Tilton.
The games we won and the games we lost are
of no importance when compared to the way we
played them. Boys who had never played before
learned to come to know and enjoy the game, and
therefore became a great attribute to the team.
Play makers like Mike Chase and Dave Van Ness;
defensemen like Peter TerKuile and Art Cox,
greatly aided the team in every contest we played
in. Mr. Curtis showed us how to check correctly
and how to play the forward lines and defense
position. His coaching was the spark that kept
the team on the ice fighting all the time. Practice
sessions against the "Old Men" (a faculty team)
were of the utmost help.
Although we didn't have a winning season, the
members of the team due to the able leadership
of our co-captains and our coach, learned and
profited just as much as they would have if we
won every game.
42
VARSITY SKIING The Ski team this year, was hurt by several
painful losses of personnel. Ken Sherman and
Philip Mayo, two of the top skiers on the team last
year were not with us. However a great number of
new skiers joined the J.V. and Varsity teams this
year.
Although weak in Alpine events, tire team
made great strides in improving its Nordic
strength. Philip Wilding-White, Proctor's best
cross country runner ran better than ever before.
H e demonstrated his skill by placing second in
the meet against St. Paul's school and the Har
vard freshmen. H e also won the Lakes Region
cross country event. Bent, Fuller and Gilbert im
proved greatly in jumping. Proctor swept the
jumping event in the Lakes Region meet.
The team was full of promising newcomers this
year. Thompson in his first year of skiing at Proc
tor, was a great contributor to the team in the
slalom events. Zander Smith ran second in cross
country on the team.
The team began the year with a slow start, los
ing to Vermont, Holderness, and Kimball Union
academies, but the improvement was rapid, and
Proctor managed to win die Lakes Region ski
meet. Then Proctor edged out Tilton and N e w
Hampton in a three-way meet. O n Carnival
Weekend, Holderness showed its superiority in
skiing by beating Proctor soundly. In the alpine
meet against St. Paul's School, Proctor was again
victorious. At the Eastern Preparatory School
Championship, the Proctor team showed rather
poorly, placing tenth out of fifteen schools. Al
though the record of the season was not impres
sive, the season for most of the skiers was en
joyed as a success.
43
Junior Varsity Skiing
The J.V. Ski Team, with Betts as captain, and
Mr. Littlefield as coach, proved to be the best
J.V. team Proctor has had in a long time. The
team's strong points were the Nordic events, these
consisting of jumping and cross-country. Jump
ing was popular and many boys found the event
much more exciting than they at first anticipated.
The jumping team consisted of the following:
Nelson, Boberts, Hood, Bust, Seacole, Geibel,
Curtin, Golan, Wilson, Clement, and Crawford.
The three boys listed last picked it up fast, and
pulled through with many points that the team
needed. Cross-Country was a slow developing
event this year. At first we had only a few boys in
terested, but as the season progressed, we found
man\- proficient boys to fill our team. Among
them were the following: Wilson, Albers, Fallon,
Hood, Clarke, and Thurston. This team worked
hard, and won a majority of the meets they en
tered.
The J.V. slalom team has a relatively poor sea
son because there was little time to practice. With
this in mind, we had to use the most experienced
boys to represent us in each meet w e raced. This
team was composed of Wilson, Clement, Golan,
Betts, Donovan, Roberts, Curtin, and Onthank.
The highlight of the season was the meet with
N e w Hampton where the team ranked highly in
each of the following events: Jumping was won
with a total of 100 points, the highest total pos
sible; Giant Slalom was won with 99.9 points, and
slalom won with 99 points. First place in the
Cross Country event was won by Hood, with New
Hampton winning the remaining places. Out of
sixteen events, we won ten.
Our thanks go to Mr. Littlefield, and to Jewett,
Albers, and Tibbetts for their help in managing
the team. The success of this year's team makes
us think that our varsity team should have few
worries in the future.

WINTER CARNIVAL
WINTER CARNIVAL QUEEN BOB NIELSON AND THE QUEEN
47
Proctor was busy. There was a play rehearsal every night, the teams were practising, a commit
tee was decorating the gym, er, I mean Slocomb
Hall, and the maintenance crew was working
overtime. Finally the long awaited Friday after
noon had come, and the girls had begun to arrive.
They came by bus from Boston, by train, plane, or private auto. They came from many states and all
points of the compass, but w e boys could see little profit in thinking about such trivia as how they
had gotten here, but rather settled right down to the business at hand.
First on the agenda was a buffet dinner. The kitchen staff did its best to fool the girls into think
ing that this was just another everyday meal for
Proctor Students. Following dinner, the Proctor
Players put on a production of Mr. Roberts under the direction of Mr. Condon.
Following the play there was an informal dance
in Holland Addition. The dance ended at 11:30
so that we all could get lots of sleep for the hard day that was to follow.
Breakfast Saturday morning was soon dispensed
with to begin the day's activities. The first event
was skiing on the Blackwater. The weather was
quite wintry—about 30 degrees below zero with a strong wind. The warm-up hut was jammed with
skiers as well as some who were interested in in
door sports of one sort or another.
After a nourishing lunch of "mountain stew,"
the afternoon was spent watching a Varsity
Hockey game with Holderness which w e won
handily. Some time later everyone retired to their rooms to prepare for the gala evening ahead.
Following an excellent dinner, the boys es
corted their dates to the dance. The climax of the
evening came with the crowning of the queen,
with Neilson's date taking the honors. During the
interlude, entertainment was provided by two-thirds of a trio. The evening progressed rhythmi
cally to a halt.
Sunday morning the braver ones ventured out
onto Slalom Hill and the skating rink for some
sporting. Lunch came and went, and the boys,
who had all along been counting the hours, began
to count the minutes. The dates went to pack their
copious bags.
Soon another Proctor Winter Carnival had gone,
leaving milestones here and there in young lives,
and many boys staring reflectively into space.

Looking back over the past four years w e see that the class of 1963 has reason to
be proud of its accomplishments. Of the 41 seniors graduating this year, only 13
are four year men. The class of 1963 is the largest in the history of Proctor. They
have reached new heights academically. T w o years after the last of the liberal stu
dents, the purpose of the class of 1963 has been solely college preparation. The col
lege acceptance rate this year is higher than ever before. They have increased the
pace of academic standards at Proctor, and as the school has helped them, they
have helped the school.
In extra-curricular activities they have also excelled. After three years of lacrosse,
the 1963 season was the best yet. The Proctor Press has increased in size and
stature over the past year due to efficient management and distribution. The Proc
tor Chest drive was a complete success. The class of 1963 was the first senior class
to make full use of the facilities of Shirley Hall.
But this is not what w e will remember most of all about Proctor. It will be the
little things that happened to us throughout the year. The friends we've made, and
the new experiences shared with them are to be remembered. Many of us shall
never see each other again, but their memory and influence will stay with us.
N o w w e go out to meet an even greater challenge, knowing that Proctor has
given us the tools to meet this challenge. M a y those who follow us fare as well as
we, living in Proctor tradition and Proctor code.

President of the senior class.

The 1963 baseball season didn't turn out as the team expected. Their spirit
though kept them fighting to the last, in every game. O n the mound was Mike
Strong and relief chucker Bill White. Bruce Van Ness caught these strong-armed
hurlers, and was amazingly quick and accurate with his throws to second base.
Harry Pierce, playing first, and Jeff Foster at short, were known never to let a
ball by their gloves. In the field were Bandy Minor, John Pollock, and Bob
Applegarth, not to forget, of course, Ronnie Armstrong at third and Bucky Adams
at second base.
Proctor had a tough season this year. They started off with a near win from
our rivals up the valley, but couldn't quite push the score over to our favor. All
the season's games seemingly went in this pattern. The team had an unusual
amount of spirit, and valuable coaching from Mr. Condon, but these didn't seem
to be enough. So, with the hope for better luck next year and the memories of
this year, the 1963 baseball season came to a close.

Junior Varsity Baseball
The f. V. baseball season was not totally victorious, although we did beat
Holderness twice. The first time w e won by one run in extra innings. In the
second game they were completely snowed under when w e gained seven runs
in the last inning. Only two of our games were cancelled; one because of rain
and one because of snow. They were both with Tilton.
Our practices were punctuated by the witty sayings of George Infanti and the
crisp comments of Art Cox. Everett Decatur made his contribution with a heroic
leap, backwards, into the stream in left field while chasing a fly ball. In one
game the whole team stared in awe at Jeff Clarke's undying efforts to defend home
plate against a fully equipped football player.
This year's J, V. baseball team being made up of mostly new boys (only seven
from last year), has developed a closer unity and cooperative working effort for
the team's good. This was helped greatly by our coach Mr. Armstrong and cap
tain Dick Waltz. Some boys who have played little or no baseball before have
evolved into fairly good players.
All in all the ]. V. baseball season was helpful, rewarding and profitable to all
who participated.

This year's Proctor Lacrosse team represented
four years of hard work. Combining new boys
and old boys, this season's team was truly one of
which to be proud.
Every boy on the squad worked and encour
aged his teammates so that a close-knit unit of
players was formed. Though we often made mis
takes, we profited by them and the entire team
fared well.
Led by captains D o w and Holt, we had a
highly successful season. These two experienced
and aggressive players helped us to become what
we are — a highly spirited, tough group of la
crosse players.
Four things were gained this year by .each
player who participated on the team: loyalty to
our team and teammates; honesty on and off the
Geld; no toleration of jealousy or sulking — just
unselfish devotion, and sacrifice, with hard work
and fair play. Work hard, play fair, and live clean
were our by-words. W e learned that by hard,
clean play we would not be ashamed of anything
and this eliminated the need for alibies.
Mr. Gillespie wanted positive action, and w e all
tried hard not to let him down. H e gave us a per
sonal challenge, and w e turned this into personal
satisfaction through continued hard work.

The Varsity Tennis Team had a winning season
this year. Out of a total of twelve matches played,
only three were lost. Two of these three matches
were lost to K.U.A., which is not in the Lakes
Region league.
Under the captainship of Zander Smith, the
team's members showed great enthusiasm
throughout the season. All the members are ex
pected to be back next year and the team is
expected to have an undefeated season. Each
member did his share of the winning this year
to brine; the team to its Lakes Region Champion
ship tie with Tilton. Cal Waters did an excellent
job as number one man on the team. He won
almost all of his matches. Zander Smith teamed
up with Cal Waters to form an excellent doubles
combination. Both Bob Gilbert and Tim Golan
won most of their singles matches this year, and
when teamed up in doubles had an undefeated
season. At New Hampton the doubles team of
Bob Becker and Townsend Gilbert gained vic
tory in their third set and thus brought Proctor
to a tie for the Lakes Region Championship.
Mr. Littlefield coached the team to victory this
year. Ffe went through the good and bad times
in good humor. Mr. Addy was the honorary as
sistant coach and head of the team's transporta
tion facilities. He was always willing to do any
thing for the team and its members whenever
the need arose. The team is certainly looking
forward to next vear.

During the course of this year Proctor Academy
has brought forth many excellent athletic teams.
Among the most distinguished of these was the
J. V. Tennis team.
Assembling in the early Spring under the eagle
eye of Mr. Edward A. Robbins, the team showed
great potential. As the season went on, the team
received an added boost in the form of several
new players.
Highpoints in the tennis season were victories
over Tilton School, Holderness, and Kimball
Union Academy. Much of the credit for these
victories and also for the team's high morale
should go to the captain, Jay Titus.
The real climax of the season, however, came
in an unscheduled match between the Latin and
French departments, represented by Mr. Rob-
bins and Mrs. Wright. Although Mr. Robbins
played in excellent form, his best so far, he was
decisively defeated, and was not seen on the
tennis courts for several days.
The season afforded a great deal of practice
and pleasure for all the members of the team,
who were as follows: Jay Titus, Bill Cadley,
Peter Kappel, Larry Hough, Peter TerKuile,
James Putnam, Fred Keer, Rick Rust, Victor
Mcdonald, Peter Betts, Peter Newell, Gregory
Kirchoff, and James Ornsteen.

This year the sailing team had the pleasure of
sailing in six new boats. The boats are called
Flying Dutchmen Juniors and are about thirteen
feet long. They are made out of fiberglass which
is practical because they don't require much maintenance.
Our first meet was with the Northfield School for Girls. Our coach, Mr. Knox, and Bill Prout got
so excited over the meet that they both fell in
even before the girls got here. Despite this minor trouble we won the meet four to one.
On May fourth Tabor Academy came here to
race against us. ft was a very windy day and
one of the Tabor boats tipped over. They had a
good team and they managed to edge us out by a score of 77V2-74V2.
Williston Academy came up to race us on the
eleventh of May. There was hardly any wind.
W e put up a good fight but luck was with them
in the last race, and the)' edged us out 3-2.
W e next hosted the Dublin School. It was a
windy day and our captain got caught with his
jib cleared and thus ended up in the lake. He
dried off quickly and was back in the next race.
Dublin sailed well and ended up two points ahead of us.
North Yarmouth Academy came to race us
next. There was a good breeze and they man
aged to turn two boats over in two races. They
kept trying, but by the end of the afternoon we won 4-0.
On Saturday May 25, Dave Cook, Grey
Lerchen, Bill Prout, Sears Wullschleger, and Mr.
Knox, went clown to Boston to take part in the
N e w England Prep School Championships. W e placed third for the third year in a row, and
Dave Cook, for the second year, won the high
points award. Next year we hope to do better than third.
Next spring we will be without our best skip
per, Dave Cook, and I hope we will get some new boys who can sail as well as he can.

This year at Proctor, golf was again one of the
more victorious sports. Although the golf team
did not equal its last year's record, we had a
very successful season. With three old Proctor
golfers and three new boys we closed up the
season winning six of our matches. Our captain,
Nat Fuller, and Bob W o o d who did so well last
year, were both back this year pacing the team
onto victory. Bob W o o d took second place in the
Lakes Region Championship. With his efforts and
the efforts of the rest of the team we took sec
ond place in the tournament, losing by four
strokes to Brewster Academy.
For the first year the golf team has been lucky
enough to have its own coach, Mr. John Maguire.
He has helped us all a great deal, much to our
own benefit. Mr. Hugh Addy also helped us in
our all-successful season.
