ASSISTANT HEADMASTER Although he is new to the post of Assistant Headmaster, Mr. Robert J. Aarthun is no stranger to Breck School. Since coming to Breck in 1957, Mr. Aarthun has coached varsity football, varsity wrestling, varsity basketball, and J.V. baseball. He has also been the Athletic Director. Mr. Aarthun attended St. Paul Monroe High School and Macalester College. He majored in Social Sciences there, and his minor was Physical Education. He has also done postgraduate work at the University of Minnesota and the University of Michigan. Always a friend of the student body, Mr. Aarthun in his new job has become an advisor for any student with a problem. Always available and enthusiastic, the new Assistant Headmaster is a great support for the school. We hope Mr. Aarthun will continue to assist Breck for many years. 11

RECTOR AND HEADMASTER Since he came to Breck in 1953, Canon F. Douglas Henderson has been the driving force behind the school. As Headmaster, he has led Breck to new heights. Canon Henderson’s enthusiasm and vigor are easily seen in the forms of the Chapel and the new building complex. Through his leadership he has made Breck what it is today. Few underclassmen get to know Canon Henderson very well, but the Seniors find that he is one of their greatest friends. When the pres- sures and problems of college applications arise, the twelfth graders can always turn to Canon Henderson for advice and support. In his Sacred Studies Classes, Canon’s knowledge and understanding of the problems that face the youth of today have been a great help to his students. We hope that the student body here at Breck will continue to receive Canon Henderson's guidance and friendship for many years to come. 10

The Curriculum and Program Committee works closely with the faculty in planning the curriculum for each year. The Finance and Capitol Funds Committee and the Building and Property Committee are also very important in the progress of Breck School. Under the leadership of Bishop Kellogg, Chairman, the Board decides the financial programs and establishes policies for the school so that Breck will continue to improve and expand. The Board is dedicated to the “Commitment to Betterment” which is the byword at Breck. The new wing is concrete evidence of the success of the Board in its endeavors. Breck’s future is profoundly influenced by the continuing efforts of the Board of Trustees. Their determination and hard work is gratefully appreciated by the student body and the faculty. 12
