Coach Proctor on Olympic Team for Dartmouth in '28

Many Slaloms and Trails in New Hampshire Laid Out by Him

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

New England's Dean of Skiers is Coach Charley Prector of the Crimson team, who has been coaching for the last two years. In his official capacity he spends usually two weekends with the team, brushing up on their form.

Proctor has worked on practically all of the ski trails in New Hampshire and has built a great many himself. Some of those he has built are the Wild Cat at Pinkham Notch and all other trails in the Pinkham Notch district, the Tuckerman Ravine Trail, the Bear Mountain run at Bartiett, the Chocerua run, and the Tuft trail at Francenia.

Like many other outstanding American skiers, Coach Procter spent his undergraduate days at Dartmouth, where in 1927 and 1928 he was captain of the Winter Sports team. In 1927 he distinguished himself by being crowned all around ski champion of Canada.

He was champion in the intercollegiate jumping, slalom, and downhill in various years and in 1928 he was a member of the Olympic Ski Team, which contests of about six men chosen from all over the United States.

Dartmouth this year has sent Dick Durrance, who can do all kinds of tricks on skis as well as beat most contenders in a downhill race.

Frequently Procter is at races in an official capacity and he lays out many alalom races.
