The House Plan, which or- ganizes the large school into four smaller units called houses, is de- signed to combine the advantages of the better physical facilities, more comprehensive curriculum, and more extensive co-curricular pro- gram of the larger high school with the distinct advantages of intimacy of the small school where teachers and students seem to know and understand each other better. Whether we shall be at Andrew Warde or at Roger Ludlowe next year, we are looking forward to the start of this new program which promises so much for the future. 4

Q? 'N 1: tiris 'S 4A 5 ,r gli is K Since our class, in the past four years, has faced major changes in education, be- ginning with the first double sessions at Roger Ludlowe and culminating with a new concept in secondary education which will go into effect when we leave, it is only logical that at this dividing point, we should review the changes and accomplishments that have taken place from the time that Annie Burr Jennings donated the thirteen room Brown House to the town in 1914 for the education of its forty high school students, to the present time when Fairfield has found it necessary to build a second high school to accommodate its seventeen hundred students. We as Ludlowites should be proud of these changes and accomplishments which will take on added significance when we realize what has brought them about. This volume of the Fairfieldiana is our at- tempt to record the school year in the light of those events in the past which have been so influential upon our years at Roger Lud- lowe.

Daniel B. Fitts As we reviewed the history of Roger Ludlowe for inclusion in this volume of the Fairfieldiana, we became more and more aware of the part you have played in helping us adjust to those four difficult years on half sessions. Even with the time consuming added responsibilities of planning for the opening ofa second high school, youhave continued to make sure that we had the best possible curricular and co-curricular program that time and effort would permit. 5
