One price I suspect that many of us pay for our enjoyment of reading is the envy we feel when we come across something we wish that we might have written ourselves. This feeling can be prompted by a phrase that is a superb example of writing style, a statement that is particularly profound, or a passage that states with clarity and effectiveness an idea that we have been trying unsuccess­ fully to articulate. Perhaps this may help explain why some of us suc­ cumb so readily to the vicarious plea­ sures which television and the movies offer us—they don’t remind us quite so painfully of our fallibility as do our struggles with the demands of the English language.

1 The McClure Years

After sixteen years of distinguished service at Princeton Day School, Headmaster Douglas O. McClure will leave Princeton Day School to accept the position of Headmaster at Sewick- ley Academy in Sewickley, Pennsyl­ vania. During his tenure at PDS, the school has grown remarkably both in population and in physical size. The school's enrollment now stands at 860. PDS's physical plant is most impressive with the addition of an ice skating rink, a second gymnasium, a renovated Lower School and a new Middle School, to name only a few facilities added since Doug McClure came to the school in 1966. Compiled below are photographs and memories of the “McClure Years" as described by some of the PDS faculty.

Teaching and the administration of teaching have daily pitfalls. There are many happy opportunities, but often we find ourselves engulfed in small problems and tedious details. “In the fall of 1967, the only men his delight in our Faculty Revues has There are serious problems, too. brave enough to come out for the first been a source of great gratification to Ones that demand and require the rehearsals of Glee Club were Chris me," she continues.

When Doug McClure came to PDS after all the alarms and aberrations of the first years of the amalgamation of Miss Fine's School and Princeton Country Day, he seemed like a White Knight to the beleaguered faculty, and we have seen little in the inter­ vening years to alter our view of him. He has respected the faculty and al­ lowed us a free hand in developing

4 Of all the Headmasters whom I have known, "El Supremo" stands head and shoulders above others in one special area: his concern for each student. Doug McClure has a unique and unending concern for every student as an individual, as a member of society. Over the years that he has served at Princeton Day School, this unusual caring has been exhibited by 1) tak­ ing students to live in his own home to try to provide them with as much sup­ port as possible, 2) counseling count­ less youths, both in and out of the PDS community, 3) striving to provide more scholarship funds as well as in many other ways. The incident which stands out most prominently in my mind to illustrate this point is the time Doug stood up for several students when the tide of public opinion was just the opposite. A few PDS students had broken After thirteen years at PDS it is hard been willing to listen to and support school rules and had gone before the for me to separate Doug and the new ideas, and because of this qual­ appropriate judiciary bodies for a school.

His rapid but clearly heard jests, his acrobatic body movements, his delivery of the songs, and the overall spirit of gentle mockery made Feste, though unim­ portant to the plot, important to the play. I also liked the dignity of Chris LaRiche as Duke Orsino. He made the play believable from the start by the way he spoke his first line (the one line from "Twelfth Night" that all the world can quote). He was not merely repeating a famous line from Shake­ speare, he was truly a man in love. Jonathan Rabb, as was to be ex­ pected, shone as Malvolio. The early pompousness, the foolish self-decep­ tion, and the final bitter anger over his shattered image were steps in a mov­ ing performance. John Jacobus deserves credit for refusing to overact as Sir Toby Belch, a part easily made ridiculous by ex­ cess. He projected the fun, the blus­ ter, and even the drunkenness of Sir Toby by keeping his within bounds Lindsay Suter’s Sir Andrew Ague- cheek deserved the laughs he cre­ ated. In his case overacting seemed true to the character of the foppish knight. The contrast between the two women caught up in the love triangle was perfect. As the sentimental Countess Olivia, who was at first in love with mourning, then suddenly in love with her infatuation for Cesario, Melissa Marks was as beautiful as Orsino described her, and as hope­ lessly out of touch with reality.

Herbert McAneny came to Princeton Day from Princeton Country Day School where he was a member of the faculty and served as Head­ master. During PDS's first year of existence, he was one of the four committee members to chair the administration of the new school. Among his many interests as a teacher, the direction of the Drama Club was his first love The theater at PDS is named in his honor.

Nevertheless, even without an overwhelming wealth of tenors, the tryouts went on. The auditions consisted of learning a short canon (round), to be per­ formed by three veterans of the group and the auditioner. Of course, as in all choral music, tone and reading ability

We arrived eight hours later, and then it was but a short three hours by local train and ferry to the heart of Quebec. The first sight of this old city from the banks of the St. Lawrence was inspiring. Staring at us was the castle-like Chateau Fronte- nac, making the weathered city look like a scene from a fairy tale. But this was no fantasy. Rehearsals and competition still lay ahead, and yet, before the week was through, a fairy tale dream would become a reality for the Madrigals. Before any dreams could come true though, we had to get to the hotel. (A 45-minute wait in the slushy cold for enough taxis to carry 22 people with a fair-sized mountain of luggage dampened our spirits momentarily). Upon arrival, we about half an hour from school, and in the season, the Community Vespers found ourselves scheduled for our no time the group found itself at the at the University Chapel on Christmas first rehearsal— at 10 p.m. that night. doors of the Baptist Conference Eve, were our first priorities.

Each day we were allotted two hours of practice time—these rehearsals were used to the utmost, getting each tune perfected. None of us were ready, though, for the surprise that lay ahead. Mr. J. had told us of the "great hall” we were to sing in—it was not until we entered the Grand Theatre de Quebec that we understood what he meant. We came in through the "Entree des Artistes” into the basement of the building, passing several bands and choirs having their final warm-ups. We were given our own room, (al­ ready filled with violin and cello cases) in which to practice. We warmed-up, straightened each other’s ties, calmed the nerves (as best we could), and climbed the stairs to the stage.
