ELIOT T. PUTNAM, Headmmzef Mr. Putnam, born in Hingham fifty-seven years ago, spent his early life in Brookline and Milton. After graduating from Milton Academy he attended Harvard, where he majored in English and French, receiving his A.B. degree in 1950. His love of sports and the outdoors, and his fondness of boys, stimulated by many years of summer camp work, led him into school teaching, and he joined the Nobles faculty in September 1950, as a teacher of French. The following year he became football coach, a position he held for 23 years. Trips to Europe and summer courses at Harvard and Middlebury served to broaden his teaching horizon. In 1938 he married Miss Laura E. Wiggins, and was appointed Assistant Headmaster of the school, a position he held until December, 1943, at which time he became Headmaster, following the death of Mr. Charles Wiggins, ll. The recent winter term was Mr. Putnanfs 10-4th consecutive term at Nobles. Words are inadequate to express what Mr. Putnam means to Nobles. His fondness for its students and his devotion to them and the school has served as a special in- spiration to us, the class of '65. Thank you, Mr. Putnam.
