Since its birth in 1 851 , the school has risen and grown and devoted 100 years of service to mankind as an institution of higher learning. Jlu+t ieMU AnniueMxiSuf, of COLLEGE Here we have been taught that education is much more than the study of science, history, language, and mathematics. These subjects are basic and important but at best are only the founda- tions on which we must build such qualities as tolerance, justice, moral courage, and understanding. Far above man ' s recent pro- gress in the physical and mechanical sciences, is wisdom and skill in the field of human relationships. This is one of the most chal- lenging problems of our time, which we, the students of Catawba College, will strive to solve. 1381 raasDBaBB H. H. Smith, LL.D. 1852-1855 A. S.

L. McCorkle suggested that a college be formed to educate the young men of the church so that they would not have to make the arduous trip to Pennsylvania, and so that higher education might be fostered locally. The school, called Catawba for a local river which in turn was named for a tribe of Indians, was opened in the Old Academy Building in New- ton on December 3, 1851. Professor Charles H. Albert was the first Principal. For many years Catawba consisted of a College and an Academy. Catawba was formallv chartered by the State of North Carolina on December 17, 1852. Many men were instrumental in the development of the College. One of the foremost was Dr. J. C. Clapp, who served as President for forty years beginning in 1861. He was in that position when Catawba became co-educational. The first women students were Miss Willie Augusta Lantz and Miss Emma Clapp. Catawba grew rapidly from its humble beginning. The Old Academy Build- ing was outgrown soon after the school began. This infant institution of higher learning was soon moved to Old White Church. After remaining there for sev- Scko-laAlUifL ujlUU Gluzsiactesi eral years, Catawba was moved to a campus south of the town. During the ensuing years, the College continued to grow. There were periods when the probability of Catawba ' s becoming a seminary was discussed. Because of a decision to move the College, the school was closed temporarily at the end of the academic year 1922-23. It reopened in the fall of 1925 at its new location in Salisbury. Only the main building was then in existence, but the plant has steadily been enlarged until it now consists of one hundred ninety acres of land and nineteen buildings, with the promise of more in the future. The College is governed by a Board of Trustees consisting of twenty-four mem- bers elected in the following manner: eight by the General Synod, eight by the Southern Synod of the Evangelical and Reformed Church, and eight by the afore- mentioned sixteen. Thus the close relationship of the School and the Church has been continued through the years. With a century of successful history, Catawba College now looks forward to a hopeful future.

Dr. George Garfield Ramsey TO AN ADEPT CHEMIST WHOSE UNCEASING EFFORTS HAVE BROUGHT INCOMPREHENSIBLE PRESTIGE TO THIS COLLEGE, WE PROUDLY DEDICATE THE SAYAKINI OF CATAWBA ' S CENTENNIAL YEAR. 12 George Garfield Ramsey, Ph.D. Professor of Chemistry 13 A. R. KEPPEL, LL.D. President TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1951: My heartiest congratulations to you on the completion of your college course! This is no mean achievement, but let me remind you that the real value of your four years at Catawba can and will only be measured by the future, not by the past. You alone, in the days that lie ahead, will determine its actual worth. It your college degree creates within you a sense of superiority and cock-sureness your past four years have not only been wasted but have been ill-spent. But, if your college diploma gives you a sense of humility and an urge to prove yourself through your service to others, you can rest assured that your experiences at Catawba have been invaluable. 14 ADMINISTRATION There are those who, no doubt, will be telling you that no time in history has presented a darker future for college men and women than today. To be sure, these are grave times. But let me surest t o you in all sincerity that, in my opinion, no century in all history presents a greater challenge and opportunity for forthright leadership than this one. Integrity, intelligent understand- ing, courage and faith— the foundation stones of true education— are more desperately needed in our national and world leadership todav than ever before in the annals of man. And to whom more than to college men and women can the world turn for such leadership. No age ever offered greater opportunity, for no civilization ever faced more directly a choice of one of only two alternatives: Christianity or Catastrophe. May it in future years be said that men and women of Catawba helped mightily to lead the peoples of the world to sanity and to peace. Mav God speed you on your way. Most sincerely, A. R.

As we turn the pages of life, we will recall our cherished memories of college days. Catawba ' s centennial year will be remembered as one of uncertainty. The world is confused. College days are interrupted by the effects of war in Korea. We only hope that the young men who have entered military service will have the opportunity to recall their college experiences. These men have a rendezvous that will be kept so that America will continue to be a free nation under God. This year ' s Sayakini is the result of the cooperative efforts of the students, faculty, and staff of Catawba College. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to all who helped in the achieve- ment of this task. The Editor 78 STAFF Carl J.

C. State by only 7-6 and then upsetting powerful V. M. I., 14-13. Donald Horner Bill Hi nslcker Popp Charles Price Ronald Ricbv Robe rt Ritchie Raymond Ritchie William Stanfield Settling on the campus two weeks before the start of the school year, the candidates under the direction of Coach Spangler and his able assistants, Marion Richards and Earl Ruth, buckled down to the task of tackling their hardest schedule in Catawba ' s history. With a number of veterans and a host of talented fresh- men on hand, the squad was optimistic about the coming games. But due to various circum- stances — an injury here, and a bad break there — the season ended with a record of four wins and six defeats. With a minimum of luck, at least half of the defeats could have been vic- tories. Nine seniors finished their collegiate careers with a rousing knock-down drag-out battle with Lenoir Rhyne on Thanksgiving Day. The three co-captains — Robert Donaldson, James Goodman, and fames Slate — played brilliantly in defeat as did their other senior cohorts — James Bowles, Vincent Strickland, Donald Horner, Garland Barker, Homer Thompson, and Winfred Cheshire. REDSKINS THUMP NEWBERRY Coach Spangler ' s Redskins opened the season in style with an impressive 18-7 victory over the Newberry Indians. In the first quarter, Popp faded to pass on the fourth down. Finding no receivers, he ran 24 yards for the Indians ' first touchdown. In the second quarter, Linder plunged from New- berry ' s three yard line for the Braves ' second touchdown. Carter carried the pigskin across the line in the third stanza for another tally. Newberry scored in the fourth period against Catawba reserves. rHOMPSOX ERSKINE TRIPS BRAVES The underdog Erskine team suprised the Braves with three touchdowns in the first half, and two in the last half. Carter, Linder. and Stanfield scored three touch- downs for the Indians. The Indians fought hard, but they were defeated 34-20. CATAWBA SCARES STATE COLLEGE N. C. State, one of the top football teams in the Southern Conference last year, received their largest scare of the year as they barely squeezed by the Catawba Tribe 7-6. Pickens, sophomore tailback, put Coach Spangler ' s eleven in the lead in the second period as he faked a pass and then raced six yards into the end zone for the first tally of the night. Stratton ' s placement was wide. State tied the game up in the same period with Barkouskie converting the game-winning extra point. In spite of the defeat, it was a great moral victory for the Indians. BRAVES DUMP PANTHERS Once more Pickens sparked the Braves to a 27-6 win over High Point. He scored one touchdown and passed to Popp for a second. Linder scored first for Catawba on a two-yard line buck in the hrst period. Popp threw to Car- ter for the last touchdown in the final quarter. Ca- tawba kept intact a record of having never lost a foot- ball game to High Point. APPS DOWN TRIBE Catawba, leading 7-6 late in the third period, met their Waterloo when Bill Cross of Appalachian kicked a 25 yard field goal to give the Moun- taineers a 9-7 victory in the Tribe-Apps tradi- tional battle in Winston-Salem. The Indians took a first-quarter lead when Pickens passed to end Stanfield 35 yards for a touchdown. Coble kicked the extra point. After the Apps had taken the lead, Catawba tried a field goal in the waning minutes of the game but to no avail. ELON DROPS CATAWBA The Braves scored first in the game on a 28-yard pass from Coble to Oxendine but the Christians came back to tie the score. Pickens put the Tribe in the lead again when he pranced 98 yards for Catawba ' s second touch- down. Elon took the lead again in the second period, scored twice more in the last half, and defeated the Braves 26-12. CATAWBA UPSETS V. M. I. Coble sparked the Indians to a 14-13 upset victory over V. M. I. in one of the top sur- prises of the season. V. M. I. was ranked among the top powers in the Southern Conference. Holt gave the Tribe an early lead when he intercepted a pass and raced 68 yards to pay dirt with 1 lamilton laying the key block. Coble converted for the point. V. M. I. tied the score, 7-7, with only filteen seconds left in the first half. V, M. I. went ahead in the third period, 13-7, but in the fourth quarter Coble passed to Crane on the Kl yard line. Coble then pro- ceeded to crash off tackle for the score and con- vert the game winning extra point. PRESBYTERIAN DEFEATS CATAWBA A rebounding Presbyterian eleven scored 27 points in the second half to hand the Indians a 27-14 whipping before a Homecoming audience. Catawba held a 7-0 half time lead as the re- sult of Pickens ' returning a Blue Hose punt 87 yards for a touchdown. Presbyterian came back to score 20 points in the third period. Coble passed to Crane for Catawba ' s second touch- down with only two minutes left in the game. Presbyterian scored again just before the whistle for the end of the game. BRAVES MAUL QUAKERS Coble and Linder joined in leading the Braves to a 20-0 win over Guilford. Coble scored first by climaxing a 45-yard drive. He also kicked the first two extra points for the night. Linder scored in the third quarter when he picked up Coble ' s fumble and rambled into the end zone. He scored again from the one foot line, after a 49-yard march downfield. LENOIR-RHYNE CHILLS CATAWBA Late in the fourth quarter, with the score tied at 0-0, the Bears ' Gene Robinson inter- cepted a Catawba pass and raced 95 yards to pin a 6-0 defeat on Thanksgiving Day. The Indians had an overwhelming edge in the statistics which counted nothing toward the final outcome. Carter, Linder, and Pickens paced the Braves offensively while Donaldson and Price led the rugged defense. 107 BASKETBALL The 1951 basketball season here at Catawba has been one of the most spectacular seasons in the entire history of the school. Records have been smashed and the players have made more and larger names for their team and for the school. Coach Earl B. Ruth, cage-minded mentor who played his college ball at the University of North Carolina, piloted his young club to one of the most successful seasons an Indian team has ever encountered. When the smoke had cleared at the half way point of the cam- paign, Catawba was on top of the standings in all games played, with 10 wins and onlv two losses, and was tied for second place in the con- ference. The annual had to go to press before the end of the 1951 season and therefore, all games are not listed. The Indians hit their stride at mid season when they dumped Presbyterian College, 103- 87, the largest score ever turned out by a Ca- tawba quint. In their last game before the mid- term exams, the Tribe downed a tall and rangy Appalachian crew, 80-67, the first time that Ca- tawba had defeated the Mountaineers since 1948. 108 wfm Larry Graham, Captain Earl B.

But with the opening of the spring sessions, Coach Earl Ruth faced the unhappy prospect of finding re- placements for a number of last seasons ' s reg- ulars who graduated either to the pro ranks or from school. Gone were stellar performers as Henry Lineberger, flashy fielding shortstop. Also missing were Bill Poole, classy catcher, and two of the starting outfielders, Frank Can- non and Bob Bell. Another test facing Coach Ruth was that of replenishing the corps of pitchers which had been depleted with the de- parture of Paul Brendle, Bill Newsome, Tommy Ridenhour. Martin Winbauer, and Joe Kelly. Left to carry the colors into batde were Jack Ward, Don Lyerly, Dave Hodge, Larry Taylor, and Charlie Price along with a few other holdovers. tlLA Intramural Sports Keen competition, hard fought battles, wholesome entertainment, plenty of spectator interest, and efficient management made this year ' s intramural program one of the best in a number of years. There were six activities, team games and individual games, which were real dogfights for the final championship. With the drop in enrollment, there was consequently a slight drop in the number of participants, but this did not detract from the calibre ol the playing. Actually with fewer teams there were stronger teams all along the line, which led to a better balanced program. Tag football brought hint of things to come as was evidenced by Section D surging into an early lead for the yearly championship when they dropped defending champion. Section E, into the also-ran department. During the spring, there were three intra- mural tournaments running simultaneously. In- dividual sports such as horseshoes and tennis proved to be quite popular and very hard fought affairs. But as usual the Softball, volley- ball, and basketball programs brought out plenty of spectators. Congratulations are in order for the Depart- ment of Physical Education and Student Man- ager, Earle Graves, for their smooth and effi- cient management of this year ' s successful pro- gram. 1 1 Tennis Tea m Brevard Brown Donald Thompson Alan Seligson Bill Simpson Robert Peeler Mr. Robert Spangler, Coach Golf Team Bert Gillespie, Manager Nat Patterson Walter Prestwood W.
