DEDICATION
rle is a civic leader, a lawyer, a business execu-
tive, a scholar, an educator, and a friend of High
Point College. Because we think ot him as a
successful personality, — a man who has made
the most of his opportunities and whose achieve-
ments are evidence enough that he has been true
to the ideals that college students on all college
campuses hold to be the highest, we respectfully
dedicate the 1935 Zenith to

Tower-top, pigeon's eye view of campus
life ; a panorama or all that High Point
College means to us — of limping basketball
heroes . . . chem lab odors . . . mixed bar-
room melodies from McCulloch . . . cars
passing on the highway . , . "peanuts for
sale" in the lobby . . ■ ten o clock bell at
Woman's . . . cocky-capped freshmen . ■ .
the gym scoreboard , , . Coach's "Hi-Po"
blowing about in the wind . . . pipe-smoke
and talk and sandwiches at the Store , . ,
the fountain looking aimless; Sunday after-
noon strollers . . . bulletin board gazers . . .
and thumb-hoisting star gazers . . . the
eagerly awaited postman; Old Yadkin's
victory ring . . . Roberts Hall about sun-
down , . . the tall gates through which we
entered and through which we shall leave.
These — and all the other glimpses that
may suggest rare, rich college days.

FINALE
THE class that came to High Point College in 1931 was the best class that had ever
registered at this institution. There were not, nor should there be, any apologies.
We found out later that they flattered every class every year with the same remark.
Whatever our deeper convictions may be, we shall modestly admit that we were only an
average group with high aspirations for improvement and achievement. It is true that
great things come in small packages; the package that is our class has grown smaller
with the years and has, we realize, rather decreased than increased in value. To phrase
it in old tried and true language, the proverbial ship (the class, of course) has lost many
of its ablest hands. Although there are fewer sailors on board, the ship is still in smooth
sailing. It is ready now to make port, not because the crew is too weak to man the old
vessel but because the welcome land is in sight. (Indeed the land is welcome, yet why do
we grieve? From salty seas to salty tears — )
Since figures of speech are in order (see above) and all true-to-form class histories
must somehow manage to refer to an army at war, may we continue to confuse our
metaphors by suggesting that the Class of 1935 has had its war on the seas? Our pirate
foes are the same creatures that always attack college cruisers. We met our share of
opposing forces of valences, bisections, Beowulfs, Renaissances, logarithms, and dates
(the Dr. Kennett or the regulated "skirt barn" variety — as you liked them or as you
didn't) . The most distressing fact that we have come to realize is that we have acquired
a kind of affection for those apparent enemies and are loath to declare the final victory.
Perhaps if we absorb those conventional end-of-the-season lectures that are bound to
assure us that we are on the threshold of life's door and that we are only beginning, we
may see that this victory is not so truly final — that we may look forward to many another
worthy battle.
Perhaps, after all, we have not really done spectacular things. It is more important
that we have accomplished something memorable in our lives; that we have partaken of
something that we leave as a heritage to the classmen who follow us. We cherish in
memory these four years, our associations, our accomplishments (and dare we say even
the demerits or the memory of their cause?) We wish to acknowledge with sincerest
gratitude the inspiration and help of our class adviser, Mrs. White. We express similarly
our appreciation of a most understanding and inspiring faculty.
It will be with a mingled feeling of sentiment, of regret, and of joy that we receive our
diplomas in May. As a class we shall have reached a certain height together. As in-
dividuals we shall cherish our own memories of the years. And individually and together
we shall anticipate the Future, equipped with all it has been our privilege to have gained.

Unquestionably, the Junior Class has done things this year. The three-mile post
(tritely put, of course) has been reached and the class is already a bit proud of its
accomplishments. Another year, sav the Juniors, and we'll —
Well, consider what the Class of '36 has contributed to the College in the past
eight months, and perhaps any boast will not seem too extravagant.
Alpha — a large share in Harrison Gymnasium's invaluable new heating system.
Beta — that mad, merry Fall Carnival when Becky Kearns was crowned College
Queen and Kermit Cloniger was dubbed "the power behind the throne".
Gamma — a gay spring cabaret.
Delta — the Junior-Senior in April, Positively the banquet to end banquets.
Giving orchids whrre orchids are due, the fragrant blooms this year go to all the
officers — particularly to Lois Hedgecock, busy chairman of the executive committee
and to President Cloniger — as well as to Professor Mourane, the private patron saint
ut the junior Class.

In our hearts we hold the mem'ry
Of a place we love the best;
O'er it waves the purple banner.
Emblem of its fearlessness.
When we're on the field of battle,
When we strive for praise to thee;
May our teams be undefeated
Ours the crown of victory.
CHORUS
We praise thy name and honor true,
They stand for loyalty and love;
May yours be fame that to you is due,
For we will always fight,
We want the right
To uphold thy standards high;
To give the best we have to thee,
Memories of you we will cherish,

ATHLETICS
C. Virgil Vow
('nil i I,
The ability to work with men, the
determination to win, regardless of
the odds, the power to imbue his men
with his own spirit of determination
and fine sportsmanship — these qual-
ities have distinguished Conch Yow
as an outstanding athletic mentor.
ATHLETIC
ASSOCIATION
All athletics at the Col lege are under the con-
trol or the Athletic Association. This group,
guided by Dr. C. R. Hinshaw as president, has
provided a well-rounded athletic program for
the College — one that rates near the top among
the other colleges of the North State Con-
ference.
The Athletic Council supervises the schedul-
ing of all games, the determining of the eligi-
bility of players, and the enforcement of all
conference rules. The Council also awards all
athletic monograms.
The Association has so directed athletics at
the College that the fundamental aims and pur-
poses back of all its programs have been and
will continue to be realized — namely, that all
participants may be trained in initiative, self-
con ttol, cooperation, and fine sportsmanship,
and that a fine, wholesome college spirit may
prevail.

BASKETBALL
Taking second honors in the North State Conference and winning two victories over
Big Five teams, the Purple Panther basketeers finished another successful season under
the tutelage of Coach C. Virgil Yow.
The Elon Christians proved to be the main obstacle in the Panthers' march toward
the conference title. After winning the first five conference tilts, the Yowmen fell before
the Christians twice in one week to give the championship to Coach Walker's boys. The
old jinx held good again in the contests with Guilford as the Quakers came out on top
in both the loop tilts. Elon and Guilford were the only teams able to beat the High Point
club this year.
The Panthers won 18 out of 22 g:imes played. Thirteen
^^Mt were conference tilts while the others were with "Y" clubs
r t, and industrial teams. The Panthets won nine loop games and
dropped four to Elon and Guilford. A total of fourteen
different teams were played, two of which belonged to the
Big Five. The outcome of the two contests with Davidson
; and Wake Forest, in which the Panthers were victorious, was
\ a surprise to basketball fans throughout the State.

The Panthers conquered E. C, T. C. and A, C. C. in the first inter-collegiate matches
on the opponents' courts. The following week a trip to the western part of the State
netted three more victories to give them first place in the conference standings
The Panthers won their first home game from W, C. T. C. and rhen lost to Elon on
the Elon court for the first defeat of the season. Returning to the home court for two
weeks, the scrappy basketeers won seven games and lost
two, defeating the strong Wake Forest and Davidson teams
and losing to Elon and Guilford.

PURPLE KITTENS
Tile Purple Kittens squad, composed of players who were not quite good enough to
get on the varsity, enjoyed a very successful season this year. Coach Yow spent quite ,i
bit of time with the Kittens, coiching and drilling them in the fundamentals of the game.
All of the Kittens were first year men, hence, they had had no previous experience in
college ball. Coach has hopes of adding to the strength of the Panther squad next year
!rom tins year's, Kitten material.
Grigg, scrappy freshman from near Shelby, has plenty of the old fighting spirit —
always going after the ball with the zest that bespeaks a determination to win. He
should develop into a valuable man.
Shannon, flashy little forward from "down east", is another freshman who should see
plenty of varsity action in the ncxi three years. Shannon shows unusual speed and
accuracy in passing and shooting.
Morris comes to us from Denton. Calmness, speed, and dependability characterize
him. We expect him to develop into one of our most dangerous Panthers before be
reaches for his sheepskin in '38.
Rogers, tall, lanky center from Henderson, proved himself to be a mainstay in the
Kitten lineup, and we are depending on him to develop into a first-rate pivot man.
Other prospects on the Kitten squad were Kearns, Brinkley, Watkins, Barr, Jones,
and Watson.
The men in the above group are: (front row) Alton Hartman, Manager; Watkins,
Morris, Grigg, Barr, and Gibbs, Assistant Manager; (back tow) Shannon, Jones,
Brinkley, and Watson.

SOCCER
The Purple Panther shin-busters held their own again this year to boost their non-
defeat record to five consecutive years. Out of nine games played this season the
Panthers won eight and tied one with Duke.
Considerable interest has been displayed in soccer here at the College especially since
football was abandoned several years ago. So great has been this interest that steps have
been taken to introduce soccer as a major sport in the North State Conference. It is now
considered a major sport at High Point and has become the chief item of the fall
athletic program.
The prolonged success of the soccer team is due largely to Broadus Culler, student
coach. His efficient coaching and outstanding offensive play have been prime factors in
making the team recognized as one of the best in the State.
Captain Byrum and Manager Davis are also worthy of a considerable amount of
praise. Byrum will be missed in the line-up next year, but Davis is expected to form an
important cog in the 1935 machine cy. Two other men who were seen in action for the
last time this year are Yount and Jones.

BASEBALL
High Point's baseball representatives of 1934 whip-
ped through to second place in the North State Confer-
ence, with Elon slipping into first. The Panther team
took thirteen games and lost seven for the best season
since inter-collegiate baseball competition was started in
1933.
The first three games of the season were dropped to
Elon, Catawba, and Western Carolina Teachers, but
were followed up by a winning streak of eight con-
secutives. The Lenoir-Rhyne Bears put a stop to this
victory march by handing the Panthers a severe defeat
on May 1. However, the next day the Purple base-
runners came back to take a double-header from
Atlantic Christian and tie with Elon for first place.
In a. return game, Elon eked out a close victory over
the Panthers to take the lead in the titular race. High
Point took the next two games from the Catawba
Indians and the Lenoir-Rhyne Bears, but bowed to
Catawba in the last two games of the season, to finish
in second place.
Sherrill was star hurler, having won eleven out of
his fourteen games, Rudisill, the team's only left-
hander, saw very little action on account of an injured
arm, but will catch plenty of mound duty this spring,
since Captain Sherrill will be shifted to the outfield
for rests now and then. Diamont, Culler, Hight,
Dorsett, and Ingle will be seen in action again this
year.

At High Point College tennis has become one of
the outstanding sports among the students, both in in-
terest and activity. Last fall the men's tournament
created much interest and simultaneously revealed
some choice ability in the freshmen. Frank Niernsee,
a first-year man, battered his way to the top round
in the singles and with the aid of Larry Yount, vet-
eran netman, succeeded in capturing the doubles
crown by defeating the Primm-Cloniger duo. Wilson
Rogers and Humphreys, sophomores, Cary Wright
and Gray, freshmen, turned in stellar performances,
but could not withstand the steady fire of Niernsee
in the singles tournament, nor the overwhelming op-
position of Yount and Niernsee in the doubles race.
Last year the Panther netmen took Elon and Western
Carolina Teachers into camp, but bowed twice to
Lenoir-Rhyne and once to Appalachian. The defeat
of Elon marked the first win of the season and the
first victory in inter-collegiate competition at High
Point College.
With improved courts and a variety of material,
Coach Yarborough hopes to build a team that will
make a definite bid for conference leadership this
Spring.

WOMAN'S SPORTS COUNCIL
T lie newly organized Woman s Sports Association of High Point Collect- is repre-
sented by a governing board composed of the officers of the Association antl all the vari-
ous sports managers.
General affairs of the girls' athletics club are carried on by this selected group
known as the Sports Council. The Council looks after such routine duties as the nom-
ination of officers, the selection of Pledge Week, and the awarding of honors. When
there is apparently enough interest shown in a new sport, it is the duty of the govern-
ing board to organize that sport on the campus.
At the end of each semester the Sports Council must thumb the files in Dr. Ken-
nett's office to find the scholastic records of individual Association members, and to
make sure that no candidate for a class team falls below a "C" average. Finally, it
is the purpose of the Conned to see that the fundamental aims of the entire Associa-
tion are carried out, and to recommend to the society worthwhile activities.

WOMAN'S SPORTS ASSOCIATION
Women's sports are something more this year than attractive lavender costumes and
lively exhibitions of "ye oldc folke dances." Since the formation of a local chapter of
the Woman's Sport Association, there has been a renewed interest in co-ed athletics.
1 he new organization, national in scope, opens its membership to all girls and faculty
members who care to participate in sports. Its general purpose is to develop a program
of athletics that will provide both wholesome recreation and practical training.
Specifically, the Association sponsors all infra-mural contests and supervises all competi-
tions in women's sports.
Soon after its foundation here, the new organization promoted a volley ball tourna-
ment that brought more than half of the co-eds out for the competing class teams.
With tlie close of the fall season, basketball became the popular sport and the various
teams were rivals for the College championship, decided bv a series of contests in
February. On the sports calendar for Spring were baseball and tennis tournaments.
The new program has also featured throughout the year, tumbling, tap-dancing, and
hikes (both the plain and the breakfast variety).
To recognize individual achievement in athletics, the Woman's Sports Association
awards points for participation in its various activities. lo win an ill 1 letter, five
hundred points is the requirement; a girl may win the coveted HP sweater by earning
two thousand points.
To the class whose teams have the highest percentage rating. Miss Sidney Brame
awards a loving cup at the end of the year.
It is the further project of the Association to work hand in hand with the Admin-
istration in an effort to establish a department in the College that may in the near
future award to candidates the B.S. degree in physical education.

VOLLEY BALL
High Point co-eds do not have any opportunity to participate in inter-collegiate
flames. But they are quite willing to leave all athletic exhibitions up to the brawny
Panthers if they may enjoy the lively mtra-mural games that have been initiated this
year.
Fall sports for the College girls begin in earnest when volley ball begins. Almost
any afternoon during the crisp autumn days a number of lavender-clad players may
be seen scurrying about on the breezy court back of Woman's Hall. All this enthusiasm
nivalis heavy practice in prep.-. ration tor the hotly-contested November tournament.
Class competition during the past season was particularly keen. With a wealth of
hopeful candidates seeking team positions, it was very easy to select four efficient groups
of volley ball players of true point-making ability.
Naturally after months of ardent training a great deal of interest was shown in the
championship play in November. Though having encountered some lively competition,
the Sophomores emerged victorious. Final scores were ;
Freshmen 43 ; Juniors 27
Sophomores 34; Juniors 27
Sophomores 25; Freshmen .13
The following are the members of the 1934 championship team as they appear in
the above group: (back row) Vesta Troxler, Becky Kearns, Fay Holt, In/.a Hill, and
Josie McNeill; (front row) Jo Williams, Margaret Dixon, Pauline Parker, and
Mabel Koontz.

BASKETBALL
The same ardent gum-chewing fans who perch high on the boards and supply the
soprano shrieks at the ball games, are themselves quite adept in the art of basket-making.
When the Davidson -de pie ting Panthers are not about rheir haunts, Miss Brame's students
invade Harrison Gymnasium and cavort about the basketball courts to their heart's con-
tent. This is not to say that the co-eds do not take their basketball seriously. For doubt-
less if they too could engage in inter-collegiate games the Lavender Kittens would make
a strong bid for any championship. According to the co-ed coach, games during the past
season revealed that there are many players of exceptional talent.
With the advent of spring and the interest in baseball stirring, the girls locked up
their basketballs and deserted the courts — but not until they had finished the annual
inter-class tournament that brought championship honors to the Freshman team after
their defeat of the Juniors and Seniors.
In the accompanying picture may be seen a representative group of Miss Brame's
ablest basketeers. They have been selected from the three lower classes.
The players are: {front row) Dorothy Perry, Lillian Varner, Vesta Troxler, Marjorie
Hlkins, Margaret Dixon, and Pauline Parker; (back row) Rebecca Kearns, Josephine
Williams, Vera York, Katherine Bivins, Pattie Hendrick, Helen Dameron, and Fay Holt.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT
Student government at High Point College is only an infant; it is just learning to walk, but
its possibilities are many and varied. The student government movement came as tile result of a
sincere desire on the part of the student body to have a voice in its own discipline. There was
a need for a centralizing, unifying force on the campus, and a student government, vested ill a
student council elected by the students, was the only logical answer.
Since its inauguration in 1953 it has gone far towards fulfilling its purpose. It has promoted
proper conduct and worthwhile attitudes among the students; hut it has not forced these attitudes
and this conduct. Instead it has held them up as ideals. It has founded an Honor System and
ha> had tin- sati^-facii I H'cing thai >>steii) mirk reasonably well. Finally, It has been instru-
mental in leading the students towards an enthusiastic, loyal school spirit,

PUBLICATIONS BOARD
The Publications Board is the governing body for the publications on the High Point
College campus. Its duties are very few, other than endeavoring to enforce its iron-clad
regulations, to promote harmony between the Zenith and THE HI-PO, and to supervise
the signing of contracts and appointments to the two boards.
Last year the board went on a "legislative spree" and passed a group of regulations
for the purpose of strengthening and adding to the prestige of the two publications of the
College by creating a closer feeling, cooperation, and fellowship between the two staffs;
by fostering the student's loyalty to his respective board; and by dividing the responsibility
and honors more evenly among the Students. Some of the regulations stated that no
student at the College shall be a member of both the Zenith and THE Hl-PO Staffs;
that in case a member of one or the other of the two staffs receives an offer for a
position on the other board, he shall at once declare his ineligibility and withdraw; that
no member of either board who resigns from that board or is dropped from membership
shall during his full time at the College become a member of the other board; and that
all photographs and cuts of each board shall be available to the other without cost or
delay. Fortunately, these regulations stipulate that they may be set aside in case of an
emergency.
The membership of the board consists of the Editors and Managers of the two
publications, the Adviser to the Zenith, the President of the Senior Class, and a chair-
man appointed by President Humphreys.

THE ZENITH
Only those who are experienced in the Annual field
can truly appreciate the difficulties and disappoint-
ments that a staff experiences in the evolution of a
yearbook from a chaotic conglomeration of ideas into
a concrete finished work that is regarded by the
average man as a pretty picture book. Rest assured
that we have given our best, and in so doing have
experienced our share of difficulties and heart-rending
disappointments.
This year we have enlarged the book slightly and
abandoned the standard cover in order to give you
something different. The loose theme is merely a
medium rhrough which we have endeavored to portray
campus life to you more fully.
Allow us to express our sincerest appreciation to
W. A. Daniel, M. F. Dunbar, Tom Daniel, and
Herbert Hitch for their personal interest and counsel.
To you, students, we offer thanks for your unfailing
cooperation, and hope that the 1935 TLenith pleases
you. Burt Asbury.

THE HI-PO STAFF
Striving always to present imp.irtiallv th.it which
the student body desires, THE HI-PO feels that this
year it has come the closest to that peak of news
d is :e mi nation desired by every college paper chat it
has done since it was first established in 1926.
The aim of THE Hl-PO has been two-fold: first,
to present impartially all news of student interest;
second, to drive, editorially, for a better High Point
College.
We believe that throughout the entire year THE
Hl-PO has told the student body what it wanted to
know as soon as possible. News coverage has been
complete because and only because of the whole-
hearted cooperation of an enthusiastic, active board.
The editorial policy of the paper has without ex-
ception been constructive. Much improvement has
been made; we believe that it was motivated by THE
Hl-PO. We rest our case.

Miss Margaret Sloan
Director
Through her kindness, patience,
and perseverance, Miss Sloan has
endeared herself to the members of
her choir and taught them an ap-
preciation of the art and beauty in
group singing.
A CAPELLA CHOIR
The A Cape! la Choir was organized six years
ago and since that time has achieved recog-
nition as being one of the few A Capella
Choirs of musical prominence in America. Its
membership is limited to thirty-five voices, due
to the fact that its extensive travels will not
permit a larger number. A limited number of
new singers is admitted each year in order to
fill the vacancies of those who have graduated
and to replace those whose ability does not
measure up to the standard of the group.
Examinations are given just as in academic
courses and those passing are given three credit
hours for the year's work. An annual northern
tour is made of the prominent cities of the
North with part of the trip being made on
water. An annual tour of the Southern states
and Cuba is also made along with week-end
trips to different sections of North Carolina
and adjacent states.

A CAPELLA CHOIR
It might be well to recall some of the hippen-
mgs on the northern tour last year lest we forget
such an incident as singing in the Hall of Fame
at the Nation's capitol. You probably remember
being an hour late for the concert in Wilmington,
Delaware, tired and hungry, yet comfotted by the
fact that not a soul had become tired of waiting
and gone home. Remember how FVhbel Dix sucked
lemons for two days before we crossed the
Chesapeake in order to ward off seasickness, and,
on the same voyage, Furmin Wright was con-
vinced that he saw a whale?
In time, we may forget some of these incidents,
but there is one thing that will always remain
foremost in our memory — that is the work of
N. M. Harrison, Promotional Secretary, Were
it not for him, the Choir might have never re-
ceived the nation-wide acclaim that it now enjoys
and its members might not have been privileged to
travel extensively. We realize our indebtedness to
him and express our sincere appreciation.

LITTLE THEATRE
Dramatic work at High Point is represented by the Little Theatre, now celebrating
its second anniversary. Although the Little Theatre is not yet fully equipped, it has
as its purpose the development of a strong organization that will be in the future even
more the center of dramatic activities at the College.
Last year the artistic productions of the Laboratory Class in Drama were favorably
received by some of the ablest dramatic critics in the State. Despite the fact that the
department was handicapped by the lack of technical facilities, the few who worked
daj and night in the old Tower room with hammer and paint brush were able to stage
performances that were declared outstanding.
Thus, with the foundations of an active organization already laid, the Little 1 heat re
has undertaken to do a great deal this year. Under the direction of John M. Erickson,
the Laboratory jirimp, assisted hv other interested students, has attempted an ambitious
program of worthwhile plays for the College audiences.
The fall season began with "Dulcy' , with Pauline Parker in the leading character
role of a talkative young wife who creates one difficulty after another with her "harm-
less" chatter.
In January posters on the campus announced Richard Sheridan's famous period
play, "The School for Scandal" — "a laugh hit for two centuries". Dressed in vivid
costumes of silk and velvet, a large cast of snuff-sniffing gentlemen and proud, cruel
ladies gossiped in the typicalh hnllian: and sparkling seventeenth centurj manner about
their friends and acquaintances. The scenery, constructed by Professor Rulfs and his
student workers, -was impressionistic.
The spring season included the efforts of the Speech Class — a short comedy and
skits that were presented at a local theatre.
Perhaps the climax of the year's dramatic work came with the inevitable Senior
Play — the class of 1935 having as its contribution the mystery melodrama, "Three
Taps at Twelve".

TENTH ANNIVERSARY
SINCE High Point College is celebrating this year its tenth anniversary, it is well
that we review some of its brief history and refresh our minds with the efforts and
sacrifices of those responsible for its existence.
High Point College had its beginning in the mind of Rev. J. F. McCuIloch, D.D.,
a native of Guilford County, North Carolina, and a graduate of Adrian College,
Adrian, Michigan. Several years after his graduation he returned to North Carolina
with the conviction that the North Carolina Methodist Protestant Conference should
establish within her borders a high grade college. With this purpose in mind he visited
the Annual Conference at La Grange in 1893 and presented his ideas so well that a
committee was appointed to investigate, and if possible, to provide means for building
a college. No sooner had the committee begun its work than it found that the church
in North Carolina had no need for such an institution. Whereupon, Dr. McCuIloch
set about to establish a church paper in order that his views, along with other college
propaganda, might be put into the homes of the members of the Methodist Protestant
Church.
Accordingly, the Church Record was established ; the name was later changed to the
Methodist Protestant Herald. A lot was purchased in the city of Greensboro and a
building erected upon it. The proceeds from the sale of this property, which had
greatly increased in value, became a great asset to the college enterprise.
The college enterprise really began to take shape when Mr. J. C. Roberts of
Kernersville provided in his will a gift of $10,000 if the college should be built by 1920 ;
otherwise, the gift was to be used for educating young men preparing for the ministry.
The gjft created considerable interest in the college project and when the buildings
were erected, the administration building was named in his honor.
At the Annual Conference in Enfield in 1920, a committee was appointed to
inaugurate a campaign for funds and another was appointed to work with the architect
in drawing up plans for the institution.
Several cities, notably High Point, Burlington and Greensboro, offered special
inducements for location. After much consideration High Point, which had agreed to
give a large tract of land and an additional $100,000, was selected.
The cornerstone of the first building, Roberts Hall, was laid on June 29, 1922;
and the first class matriculated September 15, 1924. This class was composed of
fifteen students coming from other colleges and registering as Sophomores. The first
Freshman class numbered 101. And there were several special students bringing the
total registration up to 132.
Dr. R. M. Andrews, who had served as Field Agent during the campaign for funds
and as a member of the building committee during the construction of the college,
became the first president. After his resignation in 1930, Rev. Gideon I. Humphreys
was elected by the Board of Trustees as his successor.
The sea of red mud which existed in 1924 has gradually been turned into a beautiful,
grassy campus, and a new gymnasium has been erected through the efforts of N. M.
Harrison, Promotional Secretary.
High Point College successfully weathered the storm of the depression while other
colleges with much better financial foundations were forced to close. Since it has
overcome the obstacles of its first ten years of existence, High Point College may
rightfully expect much from the future.

On Home-coming Day,
So the Gov'ment did say,
A lotta things went all ascrewy.
There were quair incidents
And pink elements;
Some say 'twas all mountain dewy.
For rest between classes
The slick-britch-ed masses
Rush noisily out to the store
To swallow some candy
And the first joke that's handy
And place two keen eyes on the door.
They're Still That
Way
It was just after eight
The spooner was late
And she kept work-
ing her thumb;
Her nerves were a-thrill,
She couldn't keep still,
Oh, why, oh why
don't he come?
She'd rush to her room
For a touch of perfume
Or to straighten a
lock gone awry—
Then she'd pick up a
book,
Give a glance or a look,
When back down tine
stairs she would fly.
It was a few minutes
past
When at last, at last
He finally came into
the hall —
From the stairway she
said,
As she blushed rosy-red,
"I forgot you were
coming at all!"
— Pine Knot, 1924.

The girls aren't complainy
They're off to Five Points on a hike.
With not so much jack
But a well-loaded pack
To eat and to do as they like.

To hear someone babble
On something he knows nothing of;
Of boosters and kickers,
Light wines and hard likkers
And not one little word about love.

Keep the girls in the straight way,
At least from seven til ten,
When they go to their knittin
So calmly submittin'
To the thoughts of what might have

SEPTEMBER
Someone leaves open the front door of Roberts
Hall on the morning of September 11. The halls
are overflowing with strange wide-eyed creatures
that drift in. Alma Mater claims them for her
own. She dries their tears, registers them, orients
them with no end of parties, blesses them and calls
them "My Freshmen."
Three days later the upperclassmen stroll in
leisurely to register and are amazed to hear the
Class of '38 discussing "skirt barn" possibilities in
manner most familiar. "Shades of C. R.!!" is the
newest phrase on the campus.
Classes begin at 8:30 A.M. on the fourteenth.
"Which one is Miss Wilmington?" is the big ques-
tion of the day. Everybody knows the answer by
8:30 P.M.
The usual initiation schemes make the freshmen
aware of their humble station by way of hair
ribbons, pig-tails, "rat" signs, confused make-up,
and garish garb for the co-eds; buckets, rolled pant
legs, wholesale paddlings and painful peek-a-boo
games for the lads.
Everybody is introduced to the faculty and vice-
versa at the faculty reception. Four new faces
are noted in the receiving line — two begoggled
ones, one be-mustached one and another rather
cherubic one.
Everyone is dined and picnicked over and over
again (at the City Lake mostly) by scads of gov-
ernments and literary societies and things.
Freshmen don cunning purple caps and upper-
classmen turn green with envy.
Harvest moon complains of too much compe-
tition from the Roberts Hall-Girls' Dorm string
of lights.
OCTOBER
Hectic rush days are going on and on — hot dogs
and teas on and on
Until the night of the fifth when rushees decide
whether to join or not to join and if so which one
to join or not to join.
Theta Phis convert the dining room into the
Candle Night Club. Gambling tables and bars
are the order of the night. Whoops!
Student body has fun and ice cream at the
M. P. Church reception.
Dr. Bowen lectures to a garden club on the
lowest forms of life.
Mrs. White and the Senior girls serve tea for
the College brides.
The Juniors stage a carnival. Becky is made
Queen of the Fall. Page Kermit! Never mind.
Hallowe'en party a howling success.
NOVEMBER
The Lab presents "Dulcy" to a fair-sized audi-
ence in fairish manner.
An autumn Saturday and students sigh for the
old days when we had a football team, too.
The HI-PO plays host to the North Carolina
Collegiate Press Association and entertains royally
with banquets and a merry dance or two. Place:
Sheraton Hotel.
Cheers and cheers for the Sophomore co-eds
who win the volley ball tournament.
Hill Saunders is made Freshman president.
Leo Pittard is chosen president of the Ministerial
Association in session here.
"Haven't things changed?" the old grads chime
in unison.

The Conference hears the Choir sing. And
Springhill and Midway.
State hears our debaters debate.
The same garden club hears Dr. Bowen on big
bad mosses.
The Day Students mourn the loss of their chere
chat, Julia.
Faculty won't talk turkey about the petitions for
more time to eat turkey.
Thanksgiving! WoXiday — mm-mm.

Anyhow, it was successful.
Your Calendarer just can't remember what oc-
curred in December except
Classes adjourned — Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year!
JANUARY

next holiday.
High Point just beats E. C. T. C, A. C. C,

dal". Lovely ladies and scandal-mongering and
an interesting library and "Oh fi, uncle"!
Edith Crowder, Mary Parham, Pattie Bartee,
Sulon Ferree and Lincoln Fulk are to marsh for
the Seniors.
Wilbur Hutchins and C. T. Morris are elected
to the presidency of their literary societies, the
Thalean and Akrothinian, respectively.

High Point gets beat something fierce and steps
right smack into Elon's coffin.
Second semester begins. "Aw yeah, I'll do

Again the faculty entertains. Saint Pat-
rick provides a good excuse for a merry
party.
The Zenith rushes madly, madly to press.
APRIL
Brings the usual things. Flowers, show-
ers, investiture services, the Junior-Senior
banquet, baseball, Easter holidays, and choir
trips galore and galorious.
MAY
Brings all things usual and unusual.
Rushy days, violent cases of spring fever
and wanderlust, another lyceum program,
Thalean-Nikanthan Anniversary Day, mote
baseball, more choir trips, more and more
banquets and farewell frolics, the Zenith,
elections, examinations — Commencement! ! ! !
There is nothing more to say,
So we must close — but by the way —
Perhaps we'll meet Home-Coming Day.
P.S. — Hasn't everything been fun? Adieu,
adieu.

Is an outstanding example of accomplishment as the result of
co-operation and steady hard work. Large or small, any com-
munity thrives only when there is co-operation and a general
spirit of service.
Utility Service and the Community
More than any other one factor, the quality of its utility services deter-
mines the desirability and attractiveness of a community for business or as
a place in which to live.
In industry and in the home the application of electricity to industrial
and household operations is multiplying the effectiveness of the labor of
the worker and relieving the housekeepers of drudgery and fatigue. And
while it increases the efficiency of the individual, it raises the quality of the
work accomplished as well.
We invite attention to the standard of utility services in the cities in which
we supply these essentials to modern living and modern business.
