RUFFLE Justice Received Payment, GEORGE M. BILLINGS Treasurer ENGINEERS REPORT OF THE SUNAPEE FIRE DEPARTMENT January 1 to December 31, 1961 In 1961 the Fire Department answered a total of eleven alarms all of which were in the town of Sunapee. On October 13 we had an Open House at the Sunapee Station which was well attended. Insurance on the men, station and equipment now runs r over 30 - of our budget or $1,400-1,500. This points up the fact that it is no longer possible to adequately run the Department on a budget that has not been increased in over ten years. Along with operating expenses, we have two main non-re-occuring items that must be taken care of this year. 1. A new heating system must be purchased for the Georges Mills Station. 2. A new pump should be purchased for Engine II in the Sunapee Station. We were unable to procure radio equipment in con- — 63 junction with the State Civil Defense Office as planned last year, but we have now purchased and installed radios of our own which were completely paid for by money earned by the Department. DAVID W. SHERBURNE, Chief HENRY W. TROW JOSEPH A- HILL LAWRENCE COLLINS AN APPEAL FROM YOUR FOREST FIRE WARDEN In these days of constantly rising taxes and wages, any unnecessary expense is an added burden on everyone's pocketbook—yours and mine. Forest fires cost money and damage our valuable woodlands. Lightning sets some forest fires, but we have no control of lightning. Children cause many fires. Ninety-eight percent of our forest fires result from human carelessness—our carelessness. This, we—you —and I can do something about. When we require you to obtain a permit for out-of- doors burning or forbid you to burn on days of high fire danger or set up regulations—hours, etc., governing the use of the town dump we are simply protecting yours and the town's interests. The ever present threat of forest fires is the concern of all of us; the responsibility for preventing them is ours and the costs of extinguishing are ours. We can do something about this problem, by being aware of and alert to the danger and by cooperating with your warden. Do the things that are required of you 1. Follow the warden's directions. 2. Secure the required burning permit. 3. Keep your fires under control. 4. Completely extinguish your fires before leaving them. 5. See that your children are properly cautioned. Everyone will benefit by it. Number of fires Number of acres burned Number of permits issued 102 GERALD S. GROSS JOSEPH A. HILL District Fire Chief Forest Fire Warden 64 — AN APPRECIATION — On behalf of the town the Water Commissioners wish to take this opportunity to thank Harvey A.

Due to increased use of the library especially by the school children it is necessary for additional help to extend hours, catalog books, replace books in racks, meet book- mobile and install new system of keeping track of books on loan. 72 ABBOTT LIBRARY REPORT For Year Ending December 31, 1961 Activities at the Library this year have included a free film program twice a month during January, February, March and April, using films furnished by the Audio-Visual Center at the University of New Hampshire. For National Library Week there was an Arts and Crafts exhibit ar- ranged by Mrs. Guy Alexander, a story hour for the small children by Mrs. Charles Weinstein and Mrs. Clarence Col- lins and a special full-length film was shown on the Life of Albert Schweitzer. Due to ill health I have been unable to donate the extra time necessary to have a film program this Fall and Winter but expect to again arrange a program of films for the coming year. Books have been given to the Library this year by: Burt Gould, Richard H. Webb, Ray Lawrence, Mrs. Harriet Stocker, Mrs. S. Gilroy Chandler, Mrs. Charles Weinstein, Mrs. Ernest Rainey, Theodore Fortune, Dr. Arthur Nilsen, George Steele, Mrs. Burton Cady, Mrs. William Plaine, Mrs. Florence Rollins and Mrs. Robert Meyer. Magazines were given by Mrs. Lillian Ross and Louis Holbritter. On September 1st I obtained from the State Library, a large collection of books about "Careers" and also books giv- ing information as to College requirements and other help- ful information for particular use by the High School stu- dents and their parents. A preliminary meeting was held in October with the School Board and Principal and the Superintendent and the Board of Library Trustees and Librarian to determine hew the Library can best cooperate with the school in view of the requirement for a High School Library in the School's program to be accredited.

No final plan has been completed but we hope to have a more helpful library system in use by the beginning of the next school year. This system would provide for one library service for both the town and the school. The new gymnasium and auditorium have been in use during this school year for regular classes and for school and community programs. Other major needs of the school, yet to be accomplished, include the following: a more complete academic program; a broader general program that will more satisfactorily prepare students for good citizenship and for earning a liv- ing without additional education; additional Health ser- vices; a program of Student Guidance; and the elimination of alternation of courses. These recommendations were made for this school in December, 1957 and do not refer to any requirements of the new Minimum Standards for New Hampshire Secondary Schools now being prepared. We appreciate the work that is being done by the Librarian at the town library and by the teacher in charge of the school library and wish to express our sincere thanks to Mrs. Davies and to Mrs. Colcord and their assistants. We wish to express our appreciation, also, to the members of the Board of Trustees of the Abbott Library for their in- terest in the town and school libraries and thank them for their assistance in working out a more satisfactory plan for a Sunapee Town and School Library.

Enrollment The enrollment for the school year 1961-62 is 26S divided as follows: Elementary (Grades 1-8) — 194 High School (Grades 9-12) — 74 Next year the high school enrollment should increase about 20 students—as this year's Senior class has 10 mem- bers and the present Grade 8 has 31 members. This larger high school enrollment should help to reduce the present high per-pupil cost of Sunapee High School for there will be more students to fill the number of courses now being offered. School Library Considerable time and thought has been given to im- proving the services of the School Library. Meetings be- tween school personnel and personnel of the Town Library are bound to improve communications between the two libraries and make for an improved use of both facilities. At our request, Mr. C. Paul Quimby, Director of Secon- dary School Services with the New Hampshire Department of Education, reviewed the Sunapee School Library set-up. He also spoke to the Sunapee P. T. A. on the same subject and stressed the need for a strong school library and how failure to have a good program of library service would prevent many educationally desirable instructional things from happening. He strongly recommended obtaining some- one with some professional training as a librarian who could organize and plan the library collection and also work to develop an increased use of the library as an instructional tool by both faculty and students. 6-6 School Set-Up Present plans for September 1962 call for the operation of Grades 7 & 8 with Grades 9-12 in a 6-year Junior-Senior High departmental set-up. This should result in better utiliz- ation of the faculty by allowing each to concentrate to a greater extent than at present in his major field of prepara- tion. Most teachers cannot work as effectively in their minor 85 field. Usually their preparation and interest is not as ade- quate in the second or third minor field of teaching. Natural- ly, the students suffer when the instructor has a limited background in a particular subject. Evaluation of Sunapee High School The membership of Sunapee High School in the New England Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges re- quires an evaluation of the school by a Committee repre- senting the Association. Failure to comply could result in serious implications for graduates of Sunapee High School who are college-bound, for this Association has virtually be- come the accrediting agency for New England. Such an evaluation consists of three principal parts: 1. Self-evaluation by the Staff 2. Visit by a Visiting Committee 3. Written Report of Visiting Committee The faculty of Sunapee High School under the leader- ship of the Principal has been diligently at work on Part I of the Evaluation—which must be completed before the Visiting Committee arrives for a three-day inspection of the school. They have held weekly meetings since early in the fall and I wish to commend them for the fine profession- al manner in which they have taken this added, time-con- suming though necessary, assignment. The three-day visit of the Visiting Committee is sched- uled for the latter part of March of this year. The Report which this Committee is required to make should prove of great value to the school as it attempts to make improvements and carry out necessary changes to keep abreast with the offerings of other schools throughout New England and the country. Respectfully submitted, GORDON B. FLINT Superintendent of Schools 86 REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL SUNAPEE HIGH SCHOOL Sunapee, N. H. February 7, 1962 Superintendent Gordon B. Flint Newport New Hampshire Dear Mr. Flint: Commencement Exercises for Sunapee High School were held on June 15, 1961. There were sixteen graduates: William Colby, Ann Collins, Richard Conrad, Sylvia For- tune, Linda Gardner, Charles Gorf, William Hill, Theodore Huff, Natalie Rich, Alona Rollins, Sandra Rollins, Janet Gamsby, Frank Shepard, Tinker Trow, Georgie Wiggins, and Janet Wiggins. Recipients of prizes and awards were as follows: Alumni Scholarship Award Sylvia Fortune Babe Ruth Award Sandra Rollins Frank Shepard Murvin A. Bailey Award William Hill Bausch and Lomb Science Award Georgie Wiggins Daughters of American Revolution Citizenship Certificate Sylvia Fortune John U- and Delia M. Emerson Scholarship William Hill Josten Citizenship Award Ann Collins Merit Scholarship Award Georgie Wiggins Sunapee Fire Department Sports Award William Hill Three members of the class are attending the University of New Hampshire. One member is attending each of the following: Cornell University, New England College, Aroo- stook State Teachers College, Hanover School of Nursing, and Hessar Business College. Three members are in the Armed Services. May I again urge close cooperation between the home and the school in arriving at post-secondary plans of stu- or? O t dents. It is imperative that each of us neither overestimate nor underestimate the capabilities of our children. It is be- coming increasingly difficult to enter a post-secondary school, and it is also becoming increasingly difficult to finance an education. We must strive for continuing and close co-operation to eliminate as many errors as possible in choice of subject matter and in making post-secondary plans. Respectfully, DAVID W.

Much has been written in this field, and many groups and researchers have experimented with subject matter beyond that found in standard arithmetic texts, demon- strating that pupils can learn with enjoyment and under- standing much more mathematics than that to which they have been traditionally exposed. It is true that the results of standardized tests have shown that we "measure up" quite well in terms of national norms, but it is also true that these measures are based al- most entirely on computation efficiency rather than a deeper understanding of the structure, power, and beauty of mathematics. It is not, therefore, out of a sense of failure that we take a closer look at this important subject, but rather out of a sense of duty and responsibility to our young people in this rapidly advancing technological age. During the first semester of the school year, it was most encouraging, and much to the credit of our school system, to see a number of elementary and secondary teachers at- tend, on a voluntary basis, a series of math meetings under the leadership of Mr. George Cunningham, Director of Math- ematics Education from our State Department of Education. Here, they received first-hand experience in the newer approaches to this subject, recognizing at times that some of the "new" ideas were only a new language for ideas al- ready known. Emphasis was given to the idea that the pro- perties of numbers were as important as the actual com- putation with numbers; that the nature of the operations with numbers was as important as the answers obtained; and that mathematics can be fascinating to many people not only because of its utility, but also because it presents opportunities to create and discover. The effect of changes already realized in Junior and Senior High School math has, and will continue to in- fluence the elementary school curriculum and there is suf- ficient reason to expect that a major change will take place 89 in the elementary arithmetic program within the next few years. We believe that our Union if43 Math Study Group was a significant first step in becoming familiar with some of these inevitable changes. New text books in math are re- flecting these changes, but much is still in the study and experimental stage, and many publishers have not yet plunged into a complete series for all levels. They have how- ever, made available supplementary and enrichment ma- terial which will strengthen present programs. A new mathematics guide for New Hampshire schools, tentatively developed at a special week-long conference last April, is now being reviewed, edited, and will receive wider distribution throughout the state by next year. This will reflect much of the "modern" trend and will be a stimu- lus for local school systems to improve the mathematics curriculum In summary, it might be said that our brief look into "newer" approaches to mathematics education is but a period of readiness for what is to come. As studies and re- search now going on throughout the country continue to show success, we can expect that within a few relatively short years, (1) a much higher level of mathematics will be taught at all grade levels, (2) that arithmetic programs will incorporate many new topics not generally found in the traditional school curricula, (3) the precision of the language and vocabulary of mathematics will give way to greater thinking, understanding, and learning.

In Sul- livan County this post is currently held by John W. Sargent of Georges Mills. Residing within the county there is also Conservation Officer Jesse Scott of Newport, while Officers Richard Bryant and John Frain cover certain surrounding towns within this county. These men watch over the local interests of sportsmen and the public, bringing their requests and special needs to the attention of the Department's headquarters in Concord. While the Fish and Game Commission and Director estab- lish fishing seasons and regulations after annual public hear- ings, game laws and license fees are acted upon by the Legislature. Thus each local member of the General Court is also a representative in fish and game matters. Other departmental services, such as fish propagation, management and research, construction activities, hunter safety education, etc., are administered from headquarters, but the public can avail itself of these services by contacting the local conservation officer or commissioner. A Personal Footnote From Your Commissioner It is my sincere wish, while I am serving on the New Hampshire Fish and Game Commission to do a good job, by having an objective viewpoint of the Department and of my County. In so doing I ask your cooperation in this fulfillment. Let us always remember that the conservation of our wildlife and surroundings is the concern of each and every person. The quality of our state is but the reflection of the people in it. Respectfully submitted, JOHN W.
