Morgan Smith
(1901-1982)
Morgan Smith, a graduate
of Thetford Academy in 1922,
died just before Thanksgiving
and was buried Saturday in
Union Village. Faculty from
the Academy and friends from
all over the Upper Valley
attended the ceremony.
Morgan was on the board of
trustees since 1948. He was on
all of the building committees
for as long as anyone can
remember. Morgan was sort
of a walking encyclopedia on
TA's history. He devoted a lot
of time and energy to the
school. Morgan showed a lot of
interest in the industrial arts
shop when it was being built.
Mr. Tefft recalled Morgan
accompanying him on several
trips across the Green
Mountains just to visit schools
with ouLstanding industrial
arts shops.

referred to him as "the

Christmas Program
Thetford Academy's music
department presented its
Christmas concert, free to all
members of the community,
Friday evening, Dec. 17, at
7:30 p.m. in Anderson Hall.
The concert consisted of
performances by TA's choral
groups, its four iostrumental
groups, and a Christmas skit
written and performed by the
seventh grade.
Prior to the public per-
formance on Dec. 17, the
group presented the concert
at the Thetford Senior
Citizens' Christmas party on
Dec. 15, and to the student
body in a special assembly on
Dec. 16.
This year marked the start
of a new choral music
department at TA, instructed
by Mrs. Nancy Kwoh. She
directs a mini-chorus of 10
singers, a girls' ensemble of 23
sopranos and altos, and a
mixed chorus of 22 male and
female voices. Mrs. Kwoh also
offers individual piano and
voice lessons.

school students who may
capitalize on work already
done or write especially for
the competition.
The writing contests vary in
requirements and prizes. Two
Vermont contests are the
Mountain Review and the
George F. Edmunds
Memorial writing contest.
Works accepted by the
Mountain Review appear in
the annual publication of all
genres of Vermont students'
writing. One of the oldest
writing contests, that in
memory of Vermont's great
Senator George F. Edmunds,
has been sponsored since 1927.
The topics of the essays,
poems, or one-act plays must
be in some way related to
Vermont.
There are also several
national writing contests. The
'82-'83 National Youth Writing
Competition awards prizes of
up to one hundred dollars cash
for poetry and short stories.
The Scholastic Writing
Awards has several divisioos
including , poetry, reviews,
humor, dramatic scripts and
original songs. Prizes for
these are cash, typewriters,
Paper Mate products, and
scholarships.
Some other contests are
very specialized in the type of
writing requested. Entries to
the National Haiku contest
must be haiku poetry. Haiku is
a well defined verse form of
Japanese poetry which con-
sists of three lines of five,
seven, and five syllables
respectively. It usually
conveys an emotion evoked by
a moment in nature and is
often linked to a season. The
five winning students of this
contest will travel to Japan
with their English teachers.
For the Gandhi contest,
participants write an essay on
a given topic about the film
Gandhi, which will be released
by Columbia Pictures in
January.
For more details about
writing contests, see your
English teacher today.
