You Came to
High Point College
Years from now when you look back upon
your college days yon will remember thai morn-
ing last Sep te m lie r when another scholastic year
at H.P.C. was set into motion. Sweltering, travel-
dishevelled students came from all parts of the
country- from Florida, from Michigan, from Ten-
nessee and New York. Through all (he years
of your life, you will never again fee] the thrill
that came with coming to college, For both fresh-
men and upper classmen it was a special feeling.
This was a new life for von freshmen. For
many it was the first time away from home. You will long re-
member how bewildered you were, and bow determined not to
show it. And didn't it make you feel good when someone asked
if you were an upperclassman? There was little time to think
your life was tilled with meeting your roommate, wondering
how you two would get along, finding your way around, un-
packing, registering, to say nothing of taking placemen! tests
and beginning classes. In your heart was the sudden thrill of
hearing the college son-- for the first time, and of meeting and
liking new friends. You will remember I hose first days as days
tilled with standing in line. You stood in line to buy your fresh-
man caps, to register, and when you went to the dining ball there
was another long waiting line. Soon after you arrived on the
ea in] his came that dreaded lime in every freshman 1 s li fe rat
week. Remember how you hated it? Yei at the same time it
was fun.
You upperclassmen- it would be even harder to describe your
feeling on returning. It was as if you had never been away; yet
there was something different. When you arrived, the football
team was getting into shape for its first game, a week away.
The campus was the same, but tin-re were many new faces and
some of the old ones were gone. Your first days wvrr spent in
that long registration line, and in jam sessions where there were
long discussions as to who dates whom now-, how pretty Sally's
wedding was, and whom you saw at the beach when you were
there. You began dreading attempts at notetaking in those
S:2() classes and those Ion-- afternoon labs. You stored memories,
as those golden fall days passed, of football games, cabin parties,
waiting in line at the Center, those "wee hour" jam sessions,
hamburgers at the Kopper Kettle, cokes and sundaes at Jeff's,
dinner at the Asia, dancing at the Casablanca or Plantation Sup-
per Club, the Block H Dance, the pep rally and weiner roast after
the Homecoming parade, those informal dances after the football
games, or the peaceful hush of the evening as you came from the
library.
Those golden fall days passed quickly, and as they passed you
dimly realized, especially you seniors, that this was one of the
most beautiful parts of your life. Too soon it would be a thing
of the past and each would go tin bis separate way.

Seniors of 1948 — Proudly we repeat this phrase,
and equally proud are we of our four years at
H.P.C. May the thirty-first means the completion
of one phase in our lives. Some will regret not
having fulfilled their earnest intentions made in
their freshman vear, while others will look hack
with pride on their accomplishments.
These four years, filled with events big and
little, tragic or comic, seemed very brief. There
were small daily events, already forgotten or that
passed unnoticed and will not be remembered until
long after June has come and gone. These things
along with our priceless friendships, our dreams.
our ideals, and our characters, which we hope have
ixpanded and strengthened for having been here —
these things we will take with us.
It almost frightens us to realize that without
our presence and all activities we had counted so
important, things will continue- still there will be
the spring dance and the Zknitii will still be spon-
soring the Beauty Queen.
To those who come after us we fling the torch-
Hold high H.P.C.'s tradition!

You Juniors came into this year of your college
life ready to make a name for yourself. Most of
you were set i>n the course you wanted to go.
Von missed those who did not return to H.P.C.
this fall, but enjoyed meeting and knowing those
who transferred from other schools. They had
much to offer to vim, and you, in return, could
give to them. Vim missed also those who went
ahead of you and graduated with another class.
Now you begin to realize that the last year of
your college life is fast approaching. You feel
a sense of responsibility as you watch vour college
days running out. Next year one of you will be
President of the Student Government, one of you
girls will he President of Woman's Hall, and one
ot you will have the position of Editor of the
Zenith. \ on, who will fake oxer the senior posi-
tions of next year, hope to make it a year in which
to make the greatest contributions to the college
and to yourselves.

Sophomores — now you know your way around. i ou
have come hack to "dear old H.P.C." realizing the
new responsibilities which you have acquired by be-
coming a member of this class. You know that you
must meet the challenge of the future.
Immediately upon your arrival your work really
began. Yon could do so much to assist and cheer
those homesick freshmen. Just last year you were
one of them. There were new friendships to he
made and old ones to strengthen.
Your big day came during "Rat Week," when,
after weeks of gleeful planning, you tasted sweet
revenge at seeing freshmen how down to you. You
really kept those freshmen a-tremble.
An important element in the class was the large
number of returned veterans. More came hack
into your group than into any other. During
these two years they have made their influence felt
and have played a major part in campus activi-
ties.
You enjoyed this, your second year at H.P.C.
\ our Sophomore year lived up to your expecta-
tions, and you loved every minute of it. It has
been a year you will not soon forget.

Your first day at H.P.C. — You freshmen will
never forget that day- -how frightened you were,
how bewildered, but with the help of the students,
and of the faculty and advisers, how that be-
wilderment changed to greater confidence and
assurance.
You entered the class of 1951 with high aspira-
tions. You realized that you as a class must up-
hold and strengthen the high aims of the college
during your four year life here.
None of vou will ever forget your first impres-
sion of the campus, the faculty, and your feeling
of admiration and almost awe of those wonderful
upperclassmen. You knew you could never treat
those poor freshmen of next year as you were
treated during "Rat Week." That week each
freshman was required to perform special tasks
at the hands of his upperclassmen superiors,
had to go without make-up — in general, "look
simply a sight."
Soon the newness wore off and then came the
feeling of belonging. Each freshman firmly be-
Icives that this year has been an experience he

Preparing' for the long winter ahead, H.P.C. students
brought out dust covered hoots and mittens. The
memories of autumn had been brushed aside for a year
of hard, tedious work — and unforgettable fun. Some-
how your work seemed harder — term papers to write,
extra-curricular activities — even your homework was
harder. The days just were not long enough. They
were filled witli dreams of the coming Christmas vaca-
tion, having your picture made for the Zenith, sitting
in crowded booths at the bookstore, attending sorority.
fraternity, and club meetings, and then the Christmas
parties.
Soon von were on your way home for vacation. You
went by ear, if you were lucky, or by bus, train or
plane. You went to all parts of the country — to Wis-
consin, to Pennsylvania, Virginia, South Carolina and
New Jersey. You came hack with memories of the
Christmas parties you had at home, and the friends
you saw. The first few days were filled with discus-
sions of who received diamonds during the holidays,
and who got what for gifts. Soon attention turned to
speculation about who would win the Beauty Contest.
Amid the rush of basketball games, dates, and classes,
suddenly there came a silence. Examinations had ar-
rived. Everyone carried cram notes ... to the book-
store. Student Center, even the dining hall.
For a moment your heart was heavy, as you thought
of those who were graduating, those whom perhaps you
would never see again. Then they were gone --scattered
to the winds as they tiled out of the auditorium for
the last time in January. All you could do was smile
and wish them success and happiness.

SI'lilH
Spring was here — you first realized it one sunny morn-
ing when you were walking to elass and noticed the trees
in bloom. It seemed to you almost as if they had blos-
somed overnight, because you could not remember having
seen them the day before. One day you walked towards
the gym, past the tennis courts and everything was brown
and bare; but the next time you walked by, you were
amazed at the solid wall of green color around.
There were other ways of knowing — you knew it by
smelling the freshness of the cool green grass as Ed
mowed the front campus. You knew it because 3011 had
to close your eves to shut out the glare of sunlight on
the gleaming white library steps. There was a different
feeling about the campus — a sort of "Zippa De Doo Da"
feeling.
Easter came. You heard the choir at church sing, and
as you listened, maybe you felt it reach something deep
inside of you. You seniors knew this was your last
Raster at High Point College.
Sunbathing became a part of each girl's daily schedule.
There was so much to do — and so little time. May Day
dance practices took much of your time, and there were
dances, banquets, tennis matches, and just loafing.
With thoughts of graduation and leaving, seniors began
counting their cuts and quality points; underclassmen vied
for rooms, and combined packing witli exams, finding
neither beneficial to the other.
Then came May. One moment we were happy with our
usual Spring sentiments of the happiness and newness
of things and the next minute we were thinking of Spring
as being the end of many tilings which we shall always
hold close and remember.

WOMAN'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
The physical education department has progressed
rapidly under the capable leadership of Miss Hope Pate,
physical education director, and Miss Anna Mae Tucker,
president of the W.A.A.
During the year the women athletes have participated
in soccer, hockey, volleyball, basketball, badminton, ping
pong, softball, tennis, and swimming. Working closely
with the department, the Woman's Athletic Association
lias realized broad development and an extensive pro-
gram of organization and promotion of student partici-
pation in athletic and recreational activities.
Many events highlighted the year, the first of which
was a wiener roast for freshmen girls held at the wiener
pit back of the dormitory. This annual event is held
to acquaint the freshmen with the activities of the W.A.A.
in which they may participate.
October 25 was the date on which the W.A.A. spon-
sored the Halloween dance. All students were invited.
Several clubs and organizations on the campus co-
operated with the W.A.A. in having booths as added at-
tractions.
On December 10 the W.A.A. Christmas party was
held iii the hasement of Woman's Hall. There were
games and refreshments and everyone had fun.
The W.A.A. Board consists of the following: Anna
Mae Tucker, president; Ovida Lineberger, vice presi-
dent and head of hockey; Lib Sifford, secretary and head
of soccer; Connie Nunn. treasurer and head of ping
pong; Lovedia Stewart, sergeant-at-arms and head of
<y
softball; Gay Hayes, publicity manager and head of
basketball; Margaret Phelps, volleyball; Doris Pickler,
badminton; and Pat Isenhour, tennis.
W.A.A. has done a fine job in planning and carrying
out an extensive program for women. The important part
this organization plays in campus activities is fully
realized by faculty and students alike.

PUBLICITY
Another badly needed department was added at High
Point this year, too. that is the publicity division, headed
by Hill Currie and Horace Billings. The purpose of this
department is to acquaint the public with college activi-
ties, to maintain a close relationship between the town

KDITORIAI. STAFF
The Hi-Po rounds out another year of recording
in black and white the story of the activities of High
Point College students.
Elected to till the Editor's chair of the Hi-l'o
this year was Horace Hillings. Wayne Cagle was
associate editor. Sports editors were Marvin Cooper.
Henry Maddux, and (ray Hayes. Percy Payne held
the position of News Editor and Homer Rogers was
Feature Editor. Lorraine Chapman, Bette Rader,
and Mary Lib Vaughn were in charge of social news.
Members of the news start' were E. W, Alexander,
Ellie Prime Cutchin, Herman Coble. Betty Spear-
man. C. W. Stewart. Hetty Gibbs, Joe \ easey, Doug
Williams and members of the Journalism class.
Circulation of the paper was accomplished by Eliza-
beth Sifford. Circulation Manager. Hill Shatterlv
handled the photography.
The amount of advertising carried in the paper
was kept at a high level by a hard working adver-
tising staff. Robert Cress began this year's work
as business manager. After his resignation earlv in
the year Richard Noble assumed the position and
carried on the remaining months. He was assisted
by Gordon Cress. Jimmie McGhee, Marguerite Tay-
lor. Billy Vendric and Donna Burns.
>>;■,
Tlie Hi-Po office is located in the basement of
the Student Center. The paper is published by the
students and for the students and can !><■ picked
up from the big table in the foyer twice a month.
Professor A. S. Withers is the faculty adviser to
the students who publish this newspaper.
The paper began this year with an experienced
stuff, most of them having worked on the Hi-Po
before or some publication before coming' to High
Point College. Regularly, the Journalism class,
under the professorship of Mr. Withers, made con-
tributions to the paper, also.
There was a great deal of resigning and accept-
ing of offices on the Hi-Po staff this year. Starting
ofl with Billings, as editor, and Cress, as business
manager, it was not long before Cress had resigned
and his duties were assumed by Richard Noble.
Soon Billings relinquished his position as editor,
in order to devote all of his time to his duties as
president of the student government. He was suc-
ceeded by Henry Maddux. Then Marvin Cooper
and Arthur Stevenson were appointed business
managers to fill the vacancy left by Richard Noble.
Every member of the Hi-Po staff hopes that it
has been successful in informing the students on all
matters pertaining to their interest and welfare.

of H.P.C. life, its student body, and its organiza-
tions.
Pandemonium reigned as the staff worked to
meet that deadline. There was the dummy to be
drawn, pictures to be made, ads to be collected,
snapshots to be brought in. write-ups to finish,
letters to type, and bills to pay. Any member of
the staff' will be willing to tell you what a job it
really was.

Above the pecking of a typewriter, assistant edi-
tor, Lorraine Chapman, asks Betty Hayes, editor,
who leans over a dummy, "What happened to the
sophomore class write-up?" Margaret and Ann,
business manager and her assistant, rip through
a mountain of papers on the desk searching hope-
fully for another ad.
Gay Hayes and Horace Hillings did splendid
work on the boys' and girls' sports pages, while
Lib Clifton collected information about the seniors
for their write-up. Amy Buekner took a load off
the editor's mind by being in charge of collecting
snapshots.
Miss E. Vera Idol, faculty adviser, through sev-
eral vears of experience, aided inestimably in guid-

Each of the staff will have different memories
of this year's work; the hard work and the funny
things that happened. We hope so much that you,
the students, will like the book.

UNITED STATES OF AMERrCA— first among nations in
national income! First in production of wheat, corn,
cotton, petroleum, coal, and iron! First in commu-
nicationSi in motor vehicles per capita— first in many
essentials to good living and prosperity.
And directly related to that position of leadership
is our standard of education— for it has been shown
that a country's wealth and welfare rise along with
its educational standards. And countries rich in
natural resources can be poor and backward with-
out the benefits of education.
Yes, the United States is a leader in the field of
education too— but for how long? Appalling con-
ditions prevail today in many of our schools. Many
of our most brilliant teachers are working against
odds— crowded classrooms, shortages of equipment
and textbooks, long hours. . . . Thousands have left
the profession for other work.
You, and every United States citizen, will suffer
from this situation, because it cannot help affecting
our national prosperity before long.
WHAT TO DO?
Today— make it your business to take these two steps:
1. Check up on educational conditions in your local
schools; 2. Back up and work with otganizations
seeking to improve teachers' working and Living
conditions. For only by keeping our educational
standards high can we hold our place in the world
—and assure a prosperous future for our children.
