Campus Improvement, a group of boys led by Mr. Noldt, was organized to do those little things around campus that just never seem to get done. One of C.I.'s chores was to gather together wood for the All Saints' Eve bonfire. Much old wood was found behind Fifield, our remodeled inlirmary, formerly Stevens House. The school has a new lining machine which C.I. used for the first time on our new football field. This we had to do numerous timesg be- fore each game, and after a heavy rain. We also built home and visitor benches for Cotting Field, and painted them green, thereby doing away with the football players' corn- plaint that they had nowhere to sit down. We also spent a large amount of time on Clancy's Mountain in the area of the ski tow. Forestry cut us two large poles which we used to repair the supports for the tow rope. Check- ing the motor, putting up new braceboatds and pulleys, and stringing the tow rope kept us busy a good many afternoons. We also helped clear brush at the base of the hill to make a larger loading area. We often used the woodshop when on many of our errands of mercy , and in the process managed to get it quite well cleaned up and ready for the extensive use it was to get throughout the year. Our last project which we performed as the cold north wind turned thoughts to ski- ing and skating, was piling dirt and transform- ing it into a pitcher's mound on the new baseball diamond. Campus Improvement had a most successful season under the inspiring leadership of Mr. Noldt. CAMPUS I PROVEMEN T We worked, we worked, we worked, Yes, every day we all worked. We worked, we worked, we worked, Never a day did we shirk. We worked, we worked, we worked, And had fun. Front Row: Sigman, Jagoda, Buck Row: Mr. Wakely, Wojtul, Miller

After hiding our time a short while after spring vacation, the ice finally gave way to the de- mands of all Cardigan and we launched our spring season. With a sizable fleet of four Tech Dinghy fiberglass sailboats, six aluminum canoes, six alumi- num rowboats, and a fourteen- foot Cadillac boat complete with twenty-Hve horsepower motor, we were well occupied while waiting for the lake to warm up for swim- ming. Fine winds throughout the spring offered excellent sailboat racing, a very popular pastime. Fred johnson and Bill Smith were our top sailors, having qualified as sailing instructors, and they of- fered to teach the exacting skills to all who were interested. Our thanks to Mr. Lary, Mr. Linn, and Mr. Wood for a highly successful waterfront season.
