DEDICATION
For one whose unselfish dreams portray the true spirit of giving,
reward comes through the hero-worship of grateful adolescents
of many generations. It is this spirit that has been exhibited
in the M. J. Wrenn Memorial, from which students may learn
and share in the knowledge of the centuries. This vision has
been presented by his wife, who graciously carries forward his
interest in the education of youth. Therefore, with the deepest
appreciation and respect, we dedicate this 1936 Zenith to
Mrs. Louise C. Wrenn.

On December 17, 1905, a telegram from
M tint co. North Carolina, proclaimed to the
world thai man could soar like a bird. That
clumsy. kitelike affair in which man made
his first flight in a heaver-than-air machine
was the result of a vision of Wilbur and
Orville Wright, and of their unswerving de-
termination to make that vision a reality.
This daring flight marked the birth of a
new era; it was the beginning of the Age
of the Air.

lii spite of public doubt and suspicion.
Aviation has forged steadily ahead. From
the small bicycle repair shop in which the
Wright Brothers made their first plane, the
aircraft industry has grown into huge mod-
ern factories employing thousands of men.
The flight of twelve seconds and only a few
hundred feet, drew the applause of the
world; but today a continuous flight of
three weeks or nonstop flights of thousands
of miles attract scant interest.

VARSITY
The present year brought the Purple Panther cagers their first North State
Conference crown under the tutelage of Coach C. Virgil Yow, popular High Point
mentor for the past four seasons.
After dropping the opening conference contest to the Appalachian Mountaineers
by the count of 28-27, rhe Panthers staged one of the most brilliant winning streaks
in rhe history of the circuit ro take down top honors with eleven victories in twelve
games.

BASKETBALL
This was the first championship five that High Point has produced since 1930,
when the Panthers captured their third consecutive loop crown.
Playing host to the conference teams in the first annual North State Tourna-
ment, held in Harrison gymnasium on February 27th, 28th, and 29th, the Yow-men
increased their court prestige by annexing the tournament title to their champion-
ship honors. They displayed a brilliant brand of ball to defeat Catawba, Elon, and
Lenoir Rhyne on successive nights.

FRESHMAN
BASKETBALL
The Purple Kitten basketeers, under the
direction of Elijah Diamont, student coach,
and G. W. Holmes, Freshman manager,
turned in a very satisfactory record this year.
They encountered several strong teams on
courts both at home and away from the cam-
pus, Besides the preliminary contests, ar-
ranged for practically ail the home varsity
games, the Kittens played several nearby
high schools. On a five-day trip into the
western part of the state, they won four out
of five games.
Giles, Ellington, Edgar Welbome, and
Hauser displayed real basketball ability,
which indicates that more material is at hand
to strengthen the varsity.
Others who played on the Purple Kitten
team were: Trogden, S, J. Welborn, Wag-
oner, Peeler, Setzer, Henderson, Morgan,
and Gallimore.

SOCCER
Although they suffered defeat for the first
time during the history of the sport here, the
Purple Panther shinbusters continued to main-
tain the high standards set by the soccer teams
during the past six years.
Boasting one of the most powerful elevens in
the state, the locals experienced a successful sea-
son both in collegiate circles and in Central
Carolina Soccer Association, which is composed
of fast independent and college clubs.
In collegiate competition the Panthers lost
only one game and tied one. They defeated
Catawba, divided with the Duke Blue Devils,
and gained a victory and a tie with the David-
son Wildcats.
The strong Kernersville club defeated them
in one league tilt, but the charges of Coach
Broadus Culler, student coach for the past
three years, came back to take the title with
nine victories in ten games.
page 55
BASEBALL
High Point's 1935 baseball team ended the
season with fourth place in the North State
Conference, though the club was hurt by the
withdrawal of Sherrill, star pitcher and captain,
who signed to play professional ball. The en-
tire squad deserves credit for its sportsmanship
and hard work. The combination of Rudisill,
Harris, and Diamont carried the brunt of the
battery attack, with Brinkley turning in a few
creditable performances. As a whole, Culler
proved to be the most valuable man, and with
the loss of Jennings only, the team looks for-
ward to a successful 1936 season. The Panthers
played a total of eighteen games last season,
losing nine and winning nine. A total of six
won and five lost was the team's standing in the
conference race. Not only colleges, but profes-
sional and semi-professional teams are included
in the schedule.

TENNIS
I'liiiugh .1 minor spun ai High l\>im < ol
lege, tennis has become outstanding in interest.
Perhaps more students are enjoying it than any
other activity. Competition is keener every year
and the men that land positions on the team do
so after several hard-fought battles. With the
three varsity men, Frank Niernsee, Leonard
White, and Wilson Rogers, from the team of
last year, and with the talent brought in from
the Freshman Class, the team looks forward to
a very successful year. Dale Jarre tt. Freshman,
exhibited the most surprising attack by wading
through the preliminaries to lose a hard-fought
match to Niernsee, ace netman for the Panthers.
Buck Setzer, also a Freshman, looks promising
as varsity material.
Handicapped last spring by not having courts
in any condition on which to practice, the sea-
son passed without a match won, although some
of the men turned in victories for themselves.

WOMAN'S
ATHLETIC
ASSOCIATION
The Woman's Athletic Association during its
second year on the campus has inspired great
interest in athletics for co-eds. The organiza-
tion, national in scope, opens its membership to
all girls who care to participate in sports,
Ail intramural tournaments are sponsored by
the association. The schedule for the past year
included volleyball, basketball, baseball, tennis,
and tumbling. Class teams in each of these
sports battled for the Sidney Brame Loving
Cup, which is given each year to the class whose
teams have the highest percentage rating.
To recognize individual achievement, the as-
sociation awards points for the participation in
athletics. To win an H. P. letter, five hundred
points are required, but a girl may win the cov-
eted H. P. sweater by earning 2,000 points.

VOLLEYBALL
Fall sports for women began in earnest when
volleyball season opened. During the intra-
mural tournament the first week in December,
the hard-hitting Freshman team defeated ail
upperclassmen and captured the Brame Loving

With the culmination of the intramural tilt,
a student committee selected from those who
showed outstanding ability the following to
make an "all-star" team: Ruth Hendricks, Eliza-
beth Hoffman, Fay Holt, Marguerite Jenkins,
Violet Jenkins, Olga Marlette, Elbabeth Phil-
lips, and Ann Watlcins.

BASKETBALL
Every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon dur-
ing basketball season, between the hours of four
and six, you will find a group of co-eds scrap-
ping on the floor of Harrison Gymnasium. Al-
though the girls do not engage in intercollegi-
ate games, basketball has proved to be the most
interesting of intramural sports. More class
enthusiasm and stirring competition are demon-
strated during the basketball tournament than
at any other time during the entire program of
the Athletic Association.
Fall sports were culminated by the basketball
tournament, which was scheduled the last week
in March. Each class team fought hard and
was urged to victory by loyal boosters; but the
dashing Freshmen basketeers proved too strong
for the upperclassmen teams. They stood un-
dr I enter] champion*.
Page 61
TENNIS
Following the spring baseball tournament, the
Woman's Athletic Association sponsored an
intramural tennis tilt. Because of the large
numbers of entries, the ladder system was used
for the tournament. Keen class competition was
displayed as each individual player represented
her class. Balls flew fast over the courts almost
constantly.
After three weeks of fighting across the net,
Adylene McCoIIum and Faye Holt battled their
way to the top round in the singles. The final
clash brought the championship to Adylene and
the Senior Class.
The Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior
classes each sent teams into the doubles. The
two upperdass teams were unable to withstand
the fast balls of the Freshmen, Marie Stevens
and Mary Frances Gerringer, who carried the
laurels for their class.

Although tumbling has been taught along
with the various other sports, it was not Lin til
last year that a tumbling team was organized
and special attention given to those girls who
snowed skill in executing the tumbling feats.
On April 12th, last year, the four classes held
a tumbling tournament. It was a contest largely
between the Freshmen and Sophomores, and the
Sophomores were declared the winners. The
Freshmen showed more picturesque stunts be-
cause of their numbers; but the Sophomores
displayed more athletic ability and expertness.
Many of their formations were cteated by the
girls themselves.
This year a class in tumbling Has been taught.
The girls have learned to do hand-springs, head
and elbow stands, forward and backward rolls,
to bicycle, to make various figures, and to build
pyramids.
Piqe il
WOMAN'S
BASE BALL
When basketball season is over, the co-eds
of the college immediately turn their attention
to baseball. As in the other sports, an annual
tournament is held to determine the champion
class.
Last spring the base-runners labored days be-
fore they were able to transform the wilderness
behind the girls' dormitory into a baseball dia-
mond. With each succeeding class pracrice,
well-trodden paths between the bases became
visible.
Teams from the Freshman, Sophomore, and
Junior classes entered the tournament, which
occurred the second week in May. Competition
was very keen. During the first round, each
team won and lost one game. In the second
series of games the hard-hitting Sophomore
team, led by their star hurler, Faye Holt, fought
through victoriously.

Those -uibo are familiar with the trend
in Aviation realise that the first thirty years
only foreshadow the tremendous develop-
ment of the next decade. Having demon-
strated its practicability, its safety, and its
economy, Aviation has come to its own.
Great financiers and small investors alike
are buying stocks in a progressive billion
dollar industry producing airplanes for
military, commercial, and private use. The
public is interested in Aviation; it has taken
its position as an integral factor oj modern
life.
STUDENT
GOVERNMENT
Student Government at High Point College is
no longer experimental. Since 1933 the students
have proved their ability in matters of cooperative
self-government. The council has profited by its
mistakes, and probably its accomplishments have
now reached a period of quiet growth and devel-
opment.
The Student Government has initiated a work-
able honor system, lias handled matters of disci-
pline efficiently, and has been instrumental in the
attainment of a greater srudent unity, a deeper
regard for school ideals, and a growing, enthusias-
tic college spirit.

PUBLICATIONS
BOARD
The Publications Board is an informal or-
ganization governing the student publications
of the college. Its purpose is to promote unity
and good will between The Hi-Po and the
Zenith; and its duties are to strengthen the
prestige of the publications, to create a closer
feeling among the members of the two staffs,
and to encourage the student's loyalty to bis
board by dividing the responsibilities. Regula-
tions are that the board supervise the signing
of contracts and the appointments to the two
boards. The student may not be a member of
both the Zenith and The Hi-Po staff at the
same time. All cuts and photographs of each
shall be available to the other without extra
cost or delay. These rules have brought about
a congeniality between the staffs that enables
each to work more successfully.
The editors and the managers of the two
publications, the advisor of the Zenith, and a
chairman appointed by President Humphreys
constitute the membership of the board.

your hands; it is our very best; each member of the staff hopes that it will be the pride of the

A CAPPELLA CHOIR
The choir represents the most organized mu-
sical group on our campus through the forty
voices that blend in concerts presented through-
out the Eastern states. Although it was organ-
ized only six years ago, the choir is now recog-
nized as one of the few outstanding A Cap-
pella Choirs of its kind in America. The mem-
bership consists chiefly of untrained voices; but
through the pieces selected and the appreciation
expressed, its presentations have been lauded by
audiences in many prominent cities.
Each year the choir makes an extended itin-
erary into the North or South. Members re-
turn describing humorous episodes of travel.
The members express their most sincere grat-
itude to Mr. N. M. Harrison, whose efforts
make their trips possible, and to Miss Marga-
ret Sloan, the director, who is enabled by her
unequaled patience and her love of music to
communicate to the members her enthusiasm
for the truly great compositions. It is to them
that we owe the advancement of this organi-
zation.

INTERCOLLEGIATE
DEBATERS
Last year the delisting squad met several col-
leges, both in the North and South, and won
most of the decisions. Returning from the trip,
they took first place in the tournament, which
made them champion debaters of North Caro-
lina.
This year the squad is made up largely of
new men, only one having participated in inter-
collegiate debates. The major meet of the sea-
son was the Southeastern Forensic Tournament
at Rock Hill, South Carolina, where the team
won five debates. Professor Cullen B. Owens,
forensic coach, arranged to meet several col-
leges in the state and a few out-of-state teams.
The query was, "Resolved, That Congress
should have the power to override by a two-
thirds majority vote decisions of the Supreme
Court declaring laws passed by Congress un-
constitutional."
The members of the squad were Leo Pittard,
Hoyt Wood, Sulon Ferree, Ed Stirewalt, J. E.
Garlington, and Dwight Morgan.

LITTLE TH EATRE
The Little Theatre of High Point College
offered as its major production, "Three-Cor-
nered Moon," by Gertrude Tonkonogy. This
rapid-fire comedy, one of the bright spots of
the 1932-33 theatrical seasons of Broadway,
depicted the efforts of a madcap family to adjust
itself in a work-a-day world after the depres-
sion had relieved it of a comfortable amount
of stocks and bonds.
Its spring production was Emlyn Williams'
melodramatic thriller, "A Murder Has Been
Arranged," which kept the English playgoers
gripping their seats when it was produced a
few seasons ago. The interests of the play lay
largely in the ingenious manner in which the
murderer was trapped and in the unique setting
in that it took place on any stage on which it
was produced, but that it first was played on
the stage of the St. James Theatre.

BLOCK "H"
CLUB
Athletes who meet the requirements of
dependability, sportsmanship, loyalty, team-
work, and have won a monogram in any
sport at the college, are eligible for member-
ship in the Block "H" Club. However,
every man must be passed on by a unani-
mous vote of all the active members before
admission is obtained. Its activities consist
mainly of furthering a higher type of ath-
letics at the College by promoting a brother-
ly spirit among the players, stressing cooper-
ation and clean play, and striving for a more
friendly feeling between rival teams.
Although the work of the club is not vis-
ible to the students as a whole, there always
exists that feeling that it is an honor to wear
the emblem of one's school and to hold its
name always at the top, representing the
highest in scholarship, athletics and the ideals
of manhood.
May that flame ever burn within the
breast of one wearing our college block "H'\

MODERN PRISCILLA
CLUB
The Modern Priscilla Club was organized in
1927 by the members of the Home Economics
Department classes for the purpose of creating
interest and of givmg to its members a broader
outlook into the held of home economics.
Home economics majors and all students taking
one or more subjects in the department are
eligible.
Each year the Modern Priscillas climax their
work of the year by giving a formal dinner, to
which the members of the science department
are invited. Each member has the privilege of
inviting someone as her special guest. The cus-
tom is for the club to bring something to be
used in the Home Economics Department or
in the Practice House which the department
sponsors every other year. This model home is
planned and operated by the junior and Senior
girls.
It is the aim of the club to help build a big-
ger and better High Point College — that each
succeeding class may be stronger and better
equipped.

PAN-HELLENIC
COUNCIL
The Pan -Hellenic Council is an organiza-
tion composed of one student and one fac-
ulty member representing each Greek letter
social club on the campus. It regulates and
controls all the affairs that are common to
these clubs, such as the amount of dues,
scholarship requirements, and the security of
pledges. It has the power to refuse or grant
permission for the organization of other local
clubs, and also to demand at any time the
disbanding of any or all of these organiza-
tions. Its name is derived from the ancient
Greek custom of having a council to govern
the affairs of different nations in that
country.
The Council has been active since it was
first organized and through its efforts has
made the fraternities and sororities better
equipped to handle the social life of the
students.

LIGHTED LAMP
The Lighted Lamp is a new honor society
that was organized as a joint movement of the
faculty and students to promote higher stand-
ards among the student body. The rules for
the first tapping were made by a committee
from the student government and the faculty,
but the organization is now self-perpetuating.
The members are elected in the second semester
of the junior year oc of the senior year. Re-
quirements for membership are: (1) Scholar-
ship — an average of B and no failures or con-
ditions for five semesters; (2) Character — ex-
cellent; (3) Service- — outstanding; (4) Leader-
ship) — the candidate must have proved his abil-
ity as a leader. Members are chosen from
various student activities such as athletics,
Christian organizations, student government,
forensic gtoup. publications, literary societies,
and social groups.
Charter members of the society are Emma
Carr Bivins, Wilbur Hutchens, Lincoln Fulk,
Adylene McCoIlum, and Lois Hedgecock.

STUDENT
ABSENCE
COMMITTEE
The Student Absence Committee is composed
of nine students whose duty it is to pass upon
the validity of excuses offered for either class
or chapel absences except those of the Seniors.
The majority of this committee decides
whether each absence shall be excused, and
makes its report to the Dean's office. Those
absences not excused become a permanent part
of the student's record.
This method of handling absences, a new
experiment in student government this year, has
not been tried by any other college in this state,
therefore the outcome may mean a great influ-
ence in future policies in regard to this phase
of college life.
Members of the committee are: Edith Crow-
der, Lois Hedgecock, Mary Margaret Bates,
Inza Hill, Virginia Grant, Leo Pittard, Lincoln
Fulk, Alton Hartman, and Paul Owen.

HOMECOMING
DAY
The third annual Homecoming Day, held
November 30, 1935, brought back many of the
alumni. The celebration opened with the pro-
gram in the auditorium at eleven o'clock. Au-
bert Smith of the Class of '35 presided, and
William Hunter, '29, introduced the speakers.
Reverend J. Elwood Carroll, '28, led the devo-
tional lesson. Dr. Humphreys made the open-
ing speech, followed by A. Lincoln Fulk, presi-
dent of the student body, who welcomed the
visitors. Dr. Glenn Perry, '29; Miss Doris
Keener, '33, and E. C. Glasgow, '30, were the
alumni speakers.
At one o'clock the college entertained both
the alumni and present students with a buffet
lunch. The afternoon was filled with athletic
contests — horseshoe pitching, tumbling exhibi-
tion, soccer, basketball, and volleyball. The
annual banquet and dance proved ro be an
enjoyable entertainment for the evening.

From Kitty Hawk. Aviation has now
gained ground in every progressive spot of
the world. It has engrained itself as a pail
of the life of a civilisation. We have used
the theme of Aviation in this ZENITH to
suggest that the vision of Mr. Roberts is
comparable to the vision of the Wrights.
From a dream our college has become a
reality and has grown like the field of
Aviation until its principles aid in influen-
cing each generation. Its growth has been
rapid; we believe that success has just
begun.

FOUR YEARS
Gee! What a heterogeneous group that filed past the office of Mr, Gunn
that first afternoon of registration. All sizes, all expressions, all types. A pro-
digious taste it would seem to work a process of integration over this crowd;
but next day faces seemed less strange. After the first week of socials, in fact,
it seemed that no one was a stranger, and before the year was gone each class
member seemed to be a real part of the other.
September — the second year rolled 'round. Now to see all the old gang, to
look at the Freshman Class, to help in the initiation — for now we were Sopho-
mores. What a difference! It seemed that no one had come back. Of course,
there were a few, but what a large group missing! It really didn't seem like
the same place. Even our president-elect did not return. After a few weeks,
everything became more organized. Ed Sharpe was elected president, and be-
fore long we had a closely-knitted class. Somehow, it wasn't so bad, after all,
to be a smaller group. That year was a full year as the class tried to make a
name for itself. Parties and various schemes were tried in one form and an-
other. The Sophomore Cabaret made a name for the class and for the college.
It was a gala affair!
The class still had dwindled at the beginning of the Junior year. But, in
spite of the fact, the class was most vigorous. The chief aim (on the sideline,
I may say) was to make money. For it was this year that we had to entertain
the Seniors and help pay for the project of heating the gym. Programs, car-
nivals, and a fashion show were sponsored by the Juniors, the returns from
which enabled us to meet our obligations with only a small assessment from
each person.
In the beginning of the year 1936, we returned to our Alma Mater only
to learn that we had lost two of our most valuable members, Ed Sharpe and
Kermit Cloniger. Yet, the class now numbers forty-three. Our projects have
been successful, our aims high, our work steady. Four years we have remained
with an ever-changing student body. During our stay we have seen progres-
sive movements visualized and realized. How much we have contributed, we
do not know.
Tennyson said, "I am a part of all that I have met."
We know that we are a part of the college, and that the college is a part
of us.
