# Great Duck Island, Maine

44°09′08″N 68°14′55″W﻿ / ﻿44.15222°N 68.24861°W﻿ / 44.15222; -68.24861
Great Duck Island is a small island (1.5 miles (2.4 km) long by 0.5 miles (0.8 km) wide) in the Gulf of Maine, 11 miles (18 km) south of the entrance to Frenchman Bay, not far from Acadia National Park. Along with nearby Little Duck Island and 11 others, it is part of the town of Frenchboro.
According to The Nature Conservancy, the island provides habitat for the largest nesting black guillemot colony in Maine. Great Duck is an active site for ecological research, conducted by the College of the Atlantic at its Alice Eno Biological Station. Much of this research focuses on the nesting habits of Leach's storm-petrel.

## History

The island was inhabited year-round from sometime after 1837 when William Gilley purchased the island, until 1986 when the Coast Guard left and the lighthouse was automated. For much of this period it was used to pasture sheep, support the light station, and provide a summer retreat for mainland property owners.
Great Duck Island Light was established in 1890, and the original lighthouse, head keeper's house, fog signal building, storage building, and boathouse from this year still stand.
Bill and Ellen Bigenho purchased most of the island beginning in 1949. According to their daughter Ellen Spain, they used a 16th or 17th century map to dig up a pirate treasure of gold and silver in 1953.
In 1963 Boston psychotherapist George Cloutier bought most of the island from the Bigenhos. In the 1970s Cloutier constructed an airstrip, and ran a psychiatric clinic and intentional community on the island including a geodesic dome and yurts, described as an "experiment in gestalt psychiatry that must be unique in island annals." The clinic closed in 1979.
In 1985 The Nature Conservancy and the State of Maine purchased most of the island in joint tenancy. In 1998 the College of the Atlantic acquired the 12-acre (4.9 ha) light station under the Maine Lights Program, renaming it the Alice Eno Biological Station in 2000.

# O Dia que Durou 21 Anos

# 1964 Gillette Cup final

The 1964 Gillette Cup Final was a cricket match between Sussex County Cricket Club and Warwickshire County Cricket Club played on 5 September 1964 at Lord's in London. It was the second final of the Gillette Cup, which was the first English domestic knock-out competition between first-class sides. Sussex won the match by eight wickets.

## Background

The Gillette Cup had first been contested during the previous season, in response to falling crowds at County Championship matches. Sussex won the first tournament, defeating Worcestershire in the final.
In 1964, the tournament was reduced from 65 to 60 overs per side with individual bowlers restricted to a maximum of 13 overs each, down from 15 in the initial 1963 competition. Both Sussex and Warwickshire had first round byes, and thereafter, Sussex beat Durham, Somerset and Surrey to reach the final, while Warwickshire knocked out Hampshire, Northamptonshire and Lancashire.

## Match
### Summary

Warwickshire won the toss and chose to bat first, but lost early wickets, falling to 21 for three. Their captain, Mike Smith steadied the innings to an extent, scoring 28 runs. The bowling of Ian Thomson, who took four wickets for 23 runs across his thirteen overs, conceding less than two runs per over, helped to restrict Warwickshire to a reasonably low total. The batting team were buoyed slightly by a score of 35 not out from Alan Smith, batting at number nine. They were eventually bowled out for 127, with 12 of their 60 overs still remaining.
In their response, Sussex's opening batsman, Ken Suttle and Les Lenham, scored 42 and 47 runs respectively, to help move their team close to the target. After they were each dismissed, the team captain, Ted Dexter, and Jim Parks, Jr. came to the crease and carried their team over the line. Sussex finished on 131 for two, reaching the target with eight wickets and almost 19 overs to spare. Thomson was selected as the man of the match for his bowling performance, by a panel consisting of Len Hutton, Alec Bedser and Freddie Brown.

### Scorecard

* 5 September 1964 Scorecard
| Warwickshire 127 all out (48 overs) | v | Sussex 131 for 2 (41.2 overs) |
| Alan Smith 35* Ian Thomson 4/23 (13) | | Les Lenham 47 Khalid Ibadulla 1/28 (10) |
* Sussex won by 8 wickets Lord's Cricket Ground, London Umpires: Arthur Fagg and Dusty Rhodes Player of the match: Ian Thomson (Sussex)

## Aftermath

By winning the 1964 Gillette Cup, Sussex held onto their title from the previous season, but they did not win the competition again until 1978, despite final appearances in 1968, 1970 and 1973. Warwickshire returned to the final in 1966, beating Worcestershire to win their first title.
