From the fertile farmland in which that stake was sunk sprang the thriving community which was to become the High Point of today. I T S G O V E R N NI E N T High Point was granted a charter in l859. Numerous amendments to the original charter have been enacted. Today the city operates under the managerial system with an elected council as the policy making body which appoints a city manager to direct the business affairs. The major part of High Point's postwar planning is centered about its public institutions. Definite plans have been made for extensive re- modeling of the YMCA, the erection of a two hundred and fifty bed hospital, and the building of a new public library, although less definite, thought has been turned to a memorial auditorium also. I T S I N D U S T R I E S From shuttle blocks to bus bodies, High Point makes it. Although rightly renowned as the furniture and hosiery capital of the south, High Point is the location for over 150 manufacturing plants exclusive of these two major industries. POPULATION 46,I97 .

In 1946 the High Point public schools were evaluated at 52,646,135 High Point is justly proud of its educational system, for it is recognized by educators as one of the finest in the state. When the city was incorporated, two churches, I T S C H U R C H E S Methodist and Presbyterian, opened their doors to High Point folk. In the eighty-eight years that have since elapsed, the number has increased until now eighty-seven houses of wor- ship are supported and attended by High Pointers. A city of progressive, industrious people, High Point I T S P E O P L E Township in 1947 boasts a population of 4-6,l97, composed of 79.819 white American, 19.773 Negroes, and .OSZ for- eign-born citizens, energetic people instrumental in the de- velopment of a small rural community into a well-balanced modern city. Good climate, availability of intelligent labor, ef- I T S F U T U R E ficient public utilities, adequate electric power, and modern municipal facilities, all point to greater growth and indus- trial progress in High Point, a name synonymous with opportunity.

This proved to be the case when, after the student body had decided to bring out their first year book, the choice of adviser for the undertaking fell upon Mr. Ralph Vance, member of the high school faculty. He it was who piloted the untried stall: through the endless difficulties involv- ed in the publication of an annual of which the school could well be proud - one which for two successive years was to win a first place national rating. It was Mr. Vance who suggested the original and appropriate name for the year book. lt was he who spent much of his spare time for two years with anonymous pictures, rubber cement, and exacting student editors.

AX Ll We admire this instructor not only for his pioneer spirit and his versatility, but also for his helpfulness and his genuine sincerity. As head of the diversified occu- pations department, he has demonstrated his understanding of student problems, and in his capacity as senior adviser, he has proved his ahility in guiding young people. ln Whatever he does, whether it is advising students or selling tickets at a game, he finishes well the task he has undertaken. It is therefore with sincere gratitude and real affection that We dedicate this 1947 edition of the Pvmicfmz to Ralph H. Vance, teacher, counselor, and friend.

Now we present to you, fellow students, the third edition 0 our annualfhetween whose covers you will find a complete record of all events of interest occurring during 1946-'47. As the city in which we live is necessarily closely related to our school life, the staff of the l9-47 Pemiczm has chosen for its theme - Uur City. ln the years to come, as we turn the pages of this volume, we shall find that school and city are closely interwoven in our rememhrances of the past. We ask you, therefore, to make this hook one 'of your priceless possessions - not to be stored away for special occasions but to be put in an accessible place as an eloquent reminder of the carefree and proitable years once spent in senior high. May you also as individuals uphold the ideals which find expression in this volume. In it we have bound together the past experiences which few of us will ever forget - experiences inextricably associated with both H.P.H.S. and Our City.

They determine the character of the citizens. Gur churches are many5 our school system is one. It is the nucleus for the training, in mind and character, of the youth of High Point. About two hundred and sixty seniors leave H.P.H.S. this year With the expectation of hringing credit and fame to a Wonderful institution. f xg y -E 4 A? LQ-LJ. nk Lfimi X4 X Hawk 9 ,MJ 5 if X QQ?

In spite of his numerous daily tasks, he has always been ready to do any service for the welfare of the school. Facult and Administration As we turn the pages of this, our yearbook, We as students have a right to feel satisfied with the things we have accomplished, the projects that have been carried through to successful comple- IIOH. Yet as we look back over the records of the past year, we should never forget that behind every finished piece of work there has always been some directing force, perhaps unnoticed at the time. lt is, therefore, to the men and women in senior high who, day by day, have cheerfully guided and directed us, not only in the classroom but also in the outside activities and projects Which have meant so much to all of us that we now say, simply but with deep gratitude, We thank you.

June of 19-l-7 saw the last class of Twenties Bratsn march across the High Point High School stage to receive those all important parchments. Although as carefree and vital as the era into which they were born, these seniors maintained the determination and desire for accomplishment. llluch could be said of the projects undertaken by this class in other years, but the successes of 1946--l-7 were indicative of what had gone before. From the proceeds of The YOIlllgF.ff, annual senior play, the class sponsored the publication of The Pezniran, and financed the traditional junior- senior prom. Honors among the seniors were widely distri- buted. Buddy Boyles, as class president, worked closely with Don Huber, head of the student body. Perhaps the most coveted honor, that of receiving the National Honor Society Service Award, went to James Johnson, who served ener- getically as editor of the yearbook. High Point W3 could boast of sixteen seniors who were listed in the Student Register. lVIembers of the class of ,47 met admirably the challenge of accomplishment and success.

Seated, left to right are: Heywood VVashburn, representative, Mary Ella Coffee, representativeg Harold johnson, vice-president, Paul Conrad, secretary and Clyde Connor, treasurer. No time was lost at the beginning of school last year by the sophomore class in staging an election of officers. Class politicians, both candi- dates and managers, gave vent to great orations. By popular vote Donald Thurber was elected president, Harold Johnson, vice-presidentg Paul Conrad, secretary: Clyde Connor, treasurer and Heywood Washburn and Mary' Ella Coffey, re- presentatives to the Upper House. To start the ball rolling in obtaining class funds, the yearly magazine campaign was held. and for two weeks sophomores pounded doors, trying desperately to sell subscriptions to get the prizes offered high salesmen. The profits, earned by the class, financed the prom, class pictures and PFIIITFHII pages. At a class meeting held in February it was decided to collaborate financially with the fresh- man class in sponsoring an informal prom. The theme of the prom held llareh 28 was that of a circus, and pasteboard animals lurlced in every nook and crannie. 'Neath soft, dimmed lights, carefree youth swayed to the tender melodies furnished by our own dance band, the Dreamsters. The very happy and successful year of the 1947 sophomore class was guided by lylrs. lflossie Shaw, the lovable class adviser, who has helped make this year a memorable one.

In the early fall, class officers were elected. As president, Doris Craven proved herself a fine leader for a young class. Ably assisting her were June Bivens, vice-presidentg Janice Nlurphy, secretary, and Robert Dixon, treasury. Barbara Carter and Harold Gibhardt represented the class in the Upper House. Every homeroom elected its own Lower House representatives each semester. Through the efforts of the class in selling Cur- tis publications, a sizeable amount of money was raised to help fill our class treasury. This money was spent for class pictures in the Pemican and the freshman-sophomore prom. Although we had a very full and successful year as freshmen, we look forward to still greater things in the coming year as sophomores.

That was the question put before the student body early in the school year as to whether or not The Pointer, newspaper publication of H.P.H.S., was to continue in '46- '47. Also casting shadows on the situation were the lack of a faculty adviser and the resignation of Editor Caroline Arden. But, with the position of faculty adviser dropped in the very capable bands of Miss Muriel Bulwinkle, the editorship filled by an efficient junior, Betty Jo Ring, and with a vote of confidence from the student body at a rally, the Pointer survived.

Student Government Don Huber, student body president, through his work on the council, made a fitling finish to an outstanding high school career. lVorking together in close harmony, the Upper and the Lower Houses of the Student Council have, during the past year, undertaken and brought to completion a number of joint projects. Of these, the first was the sale of badges and pennants at the home football games. Financially, however, the most successful pro- ject undertaken was the sponsoring of a series of assembly programs by out-of-town companies. The Social Standards Conference is an annual event which is always anticipated with enthusiasm by the entire school. Early last fall, delegates from the two houses enjoyed a trip to Asheville, where they attended the North Carolina State Student Council Con- gress. Later on, delegates from the local group were present at meetings both in Greensboro and in High Point. ln February, the Council was host to the Central District Conference, which was attended by representatives from a number of other schools. Under the leadership of Don Huber, president, and Joanne Sechrest, vice-president, and with the assistance of Bliss Bain Johnson, sponsor of the Upper House, the council has played an important part in the life of H.P.H.S. In the carrying out of all projects, the council leaders have been ably assisted by the following representatives: Rida Ingram and Ralston Welch, seniors, Dolly Albright and Nick Halipilias, juniors, Mary Ella Coffey and Heywood Wash- burn, sophomoresg and Barbara Carter and Ha- rold Gibhardt, freshmen. We feel that our Student Council is fully re- presentative of the school, in that it comes into contact with more students than does any other organization in senior high. i The Upper House of the council planned and directed many student activities.

This group took The sparkling personality and willing ef- ficiency of joanne Sechrest, student body vice- president and leader of the Lower House, are known throughout the school. over various activities this year and did great Work on each. Just a few of the jobs which they so ably undertook were: the sale of pennants and badges during football season, fwhich inci- dentally, increased the deflated treasuryjg the traffic problem, which Doris Allen and her com- mittee promptly dissolved, and the cafeteria pro- blem, for which they purchased table posters. They had big plans for homecoming. but these were cut short by a teachers' meeting! Feeling rather 'ipeppyu and excited over a forthcoming game with our ole' friend, Greens- boro, a committee, headed by Joe Price, went before the house and asked them to sponsor a bonfire and pep rally to be held the night before the Greensboro-High Point football game. Per- mission granted, ,loe and his committee, under the sponsorship of the Lower House, staged High Point High School's first bonfire, which we might add, was a 'iroaringl' success. The Southeastern School Assembly programs and Social Standards Conference were just a few of the activities which they sponsored jointly with the Upper House. Throughout its accomplishments. a spirit of harmony has prevailed and leadership has de- veloped. '45895v A f if fi n..,,, ational Hono Wa- pl'8SCHfailOl'l.

This organization, the ultimate goal of all stu- dents, is not solely an honorary club, it is a very active and important function of the school. Perhaps the most outstanding service rendered by the Honor Society is the scrapbook, which is now being compiled every year by a committee from the group. This book contains every notable school activity of the year from sports to proms. It will give each succeeding class a lasting remem- brance of the goals and aspirations of their pre- decessors. The two important financial undertakings of the society this year were the sale of stationery and of personal cards. The latter project is a very practical one, inasmuch as the cards are used with the commencement invitations. Every year a senior at High Point High School is presented the National Honor Society Service Award, an honor given to the student who, in the eyes of his classmates, has rendered the most unselfish and outstanding service to his school. This year at the spring induction James Johnson was announced as the winner of the cup. The enthusiastic response of the student body when Don Huber made the presentation was evidence that the choice was practically unanimous.

At the first meeting of old and new members, talent cards were hlled out by all. These cards were filed for the use of anyone who wished to seek talent, as in the case of the Amateur Show. Members also chose from a list of different subjects the one in which they were most interested and signed up for a discussion group on that subject. This year opportunities were offered to mem- bers to prove their excellence by the Good Health, Masque And Gavel Soil Conservation, World Peace, and Town Nleeting of the Air contests. Rodney Borum, Masque and Gavel member, was declared one of the Winners in a county elimination Good Health Contest, held in the high school library on No- vember twenty-sixth. He was also the winner in the World Peace oratorical contest. In the Soil Conservation contest, Herman Coble placed first over Rodney Borum and Joe Aaron, both of whom are members of the society. The crowning achievement of the year came, however, when Caroline Arden, in Nlarch, was chosen one of the four hnalists in the nation-wide Town Meeting of the Air broadcast.

Although the Beta Club stimulates achievement among its members by furnishing an incentive to effort, it does .not foster nor tolerate a feeling of superiority in its members. The qualifications are unwavering-- ninety-two scholastic average for juniors and ninety for seniors. No student, however, may attain membership without the approval of the administrative head of the school. This year the club participated in an educa- tional survey talcen of the senior class. The stu- dents stated their choice of colleges and also re- vealed their life vocation. The local Beta Club also donated the silver plaque displayed in the library. Upon graduation each member who has maintained an average of ninety-two or higher during his high school years is honored by having his name inscribed on this plaque. The High Point and Lexington Chapters acted this year as joint hosts to the 1946-47 convention in VVinston-Salem. Ruby Workman, Robert Shackelford and Hugh VVinn represented High Point as marshals.

Each club had its own officers, who presided at the meetings held according to the vote of the individual club. Each group has two consuls president and vice-presidentj, one senator Cse- cretaryj, and one equities Cprogram chairmanj. Presidents of the first-year classes were Doris Craven and Harry Kotsianos.

Knowing that a club for dinner every Thurs- day could not operate on its reputation, the Key Clubbers began inaugurating beneficial projects. The first of these was the sponsorship of a magic show given by Mr. Coke Cecil. This was follow- ed by the selling of Christmas trees last winter and by the selling of flowers and corsages this spring. Qnly last October did the Key Club manage to become an official school organization. lt selected Mr. Bert lshee as adviser and held its formal induction of new members of the audi- torium in December. ln order to accomplish its prime purpose-to do for the school what the average civic club does for the city-the Key Club has systematically cleaned the school grounds at intervals and has established a scholarship fund which will enable a deserving student of High Point High School to attend any school of his choice for four years. The Key Club Scholarship was awarded this year to Bobby Adams, who was chosen by a faculty scholarship committee and approved by the Key Club. The value of the scholarship is to be S200 each year for four years provided the winner maintains a high scholastic average and upholds the ideas of the Key Club.

Almost any Monday night during the school year, the members of the A Cappella Choir may be found with eyes focused on the director, Mr. Emile Serposs, waiting for the pitch to be taken and the down beat to be given and another even- ing of hard work to begin. This is characteristic of the weekly rehearsals of the A Cappella Choir in preparation for their numerous programs and concerts and their state musical contests. Before Klr. Carl G. N. Cronstedt bid farewell to his li'l folk, as he has affectionately dubbed his choir members, at mid-term, and left for New York to obtain his doctorate in music, he directed the combined choruses of the three choir periods in a presentation of Handel's illestialz. The Choir also had a successful spring season. Not only did they sing in almost every church in the city and the outlying communities, but they traveled to Winston-Salem to the district music contest and to Greensboro to the state finals.

This year, for the first time, a national YRICA-YWCA conference will be held at Grinnell College, Grinnell, Iowa. By vote of all Y-Teen clubs, Barbara Lowe was elected as High Point's representative. In August, 1946, the Virginia-Carolina Re- gional Conference was held at Camp Merrie- Woode in Western North Carolina. Imogene Haney, Jeanne Montgomery, Charlene Thomas, Barbara George, Betty Jo Hedrick, Betty Jo Ring, and NIiss Dorothy Hollar, not only repre- sented High Point, but came back with their heads full of ideas for our clubs. The highlight of all projects for the past year was a successful canteen, started by the Y-Teens in the spring of 1946. The basement rooms of the YWCA were redecorated, and records were bought. A snack bar and tables were placed in one room, a ping pong table and tables for other games occupied the game room, and dancing took place in the foyer. The canteen is open every other week-end and anyone of high school age is permitted to attend.

Qgloeew ATHLETICS As a result of the facilities offered by a health-conscious com- munity, athletics is a year-round activity of High Point High School students. Football, basketball, baseball, track, tennis, Wrestling, and golf are emphasized in the high school athletic program. In their desire for success, our boys and girls are conscious of the fact that victories can be moral and mental, as Well as physical. Sportsmanship either in success or in defeat is always a sufficient tribute to any Well-trained team. ,LE 1? 1 C ' tx K M 5 Q, 3 5512, D y ixd RQ KK?

Simeon, Head Coach In mid-August, Coaches Simeon, Crowder, Bowen, and NIcCoy called practice sessions twice daily for the local's 1946 football team. Finally, after several weeks of training, the Black Bison inaugurated their campaign for 1946 football honors by turning back a supposedly strong Reids- ville eleven to the tune of 33 to 7. Hugh Gordon and Terrible Tommy iWcGhee led the team to a well-deserved victory. Following the win over the Golden Lions the locals ran smack into Bull-dog Fever. The ones from Thomasville, first on the list, fell vic- tim to a terrihc onslaught resulting in a 45 to 0 rout. Durham's Bull-dogs were next, and this tussel proved to be a duplicate of the Reidsville encounter, 33 to 7. The reserve strength display- ed by the Pointers was particularly outstanding at this time. In this tussel, Don Huber and T. C. Isom broke into the scoring column. What proved to be the third and most power- ful of the canine aggregations was that of Bur- lington. In a closely fought contest, the Blue and I The 1946-'47 Black Bison Football Squad, first row, left to right: T. C.

A powerful Yellow Jacket team from Lexington had plenty of sting in the first period, but in the latter stages of the game, we came from behind to win in a thriller, 14 to 7. Hugh Gordon's spectacular 60-yard dash to pay dirt was the high-light of this hotly contested fray. Sa1isbury's injury-riddled eleven proved to be no match for the steadily improving Bison team. Jimmy Rickert and Company poured it on to the count of 34 to 6. Then the stage was set for the home-coming clash with the Charlotte Wildcats, who, fresh from an impressive victory over Ashe- ville, had high hopes of turning back the locals. However, fate didn't plan it that way for the Cats, who later trounced Miami High, Knox- ville, and Peabody of Massachusetts in stunning upsets. Frank von Drehle was little short of sen- sational in sparking the Bison to its 14 to 0 win. Boyd Chapman sent the water-logged pigskin through the uprights following von Drehle's devastating plunges for touchdowns. The Locals were heavily favored to trounce Asheville on the following week-end, but the underdogs tossed the dope-bucket sky high, and the Pointers considered themselves fortunate in being able to tie the Maroons O to 0. The High Point bus had broken down 15 miles from nowhere on the hard and tiresome trip. This was just one of the unfortunate mishaps that threw the Bison off their game. Few people thought that the Pointers could regain their form in time to give Greensboro a run for their money. The Bison line, however, rose up three times inside their five-yard line to repulse Whirlie drives. Donald Hooper and M. F. Snooky Grooms refused to give when the giving meant defeat at the hands of their most ardent rival. Tommy McGhee saw limited action because of an injured ankle.

With Truett Grant and Tom McGhee missing the Reynold's encounter the Black Demons edged out the Bison 14-13. Rich- ard Crowder clinched All-Conference honors by taking a breath-taking pass from Frank von Drehle for the final local touchdown. A few weeks after the Reynold's affair, team members voted to play a post season game with the Washington and Lee High School of Arling- ton, Virginia. The General's superior aerial at- tack gave the margin of victory to the Virginians, 26 to 14. This ended High Point's quest for 1946 school-boy honors with a record of seven wins, two losses, and two ties. Frank von Drehle and Nl. F. Grooms were placed on the Charlotte News All-State Team. Donald Hooper made the Greensboro Daily News selection. Hooper also played in the Shrine game for the North Carolina All-Stars and turned in a creditable performance. Hugh Gordon, always strong on both defense and offense, was voted the most valuable player by the citizens of High Point and awarded the lWost Valuable Player Award by the American Business Club.

In The Hoop For I94 The Black Bison basketball team let the West- ern Class AA championship slide through their hands by a single game. The Bison had a confer- ence record of 14 wins against two defeats- from Greensboro, who iced the crown in their last meeting with the Pointers with a 32-3-1- victory. Playing the leading members of the Eastern Conference, the locals claimed decisive victories over Mt. Airy, WVilson, and Raleigh, while tak- ing a 30-39 defeat from Wilmington, state champions. The Pointers paid a visit to Lynch- burg, Virginia, for their last non-conference game and received a 45--'l-6 defeat from the Virginians. Gpening their conference schedule against Asheville's Maroons with 54-33, the High Point team showed championship possibilities and continued with a 39-24 conquest over R. J. Reynolds. Then the Bison 1net and conquered one of their toughest obstacles when they downed a determined freshman team from the University of North Carolina, 36-28. Resuming the conference grind with a 58-38 job over Gastonia, the Pointers were knocked off Co-Captains Bill Hartley and jack Hawks, poised to drop a foul shot. the conference perch by Greensboro on the local hardwood 20-29 in an air-tight defensive game. The team bounced back and took victories over Charlotte, Salisbury, and Asheville. Reaching their scoring peak with 61-l2 and 60-33 victories over Salisbury and Gastonia, the Furniture City lads looked as if they might make a come-back to cap the coveted conference crown, but fell short two points as Greensboro clipped the Bison 32-34 in the Gate City. Although out of the running, the locals never gave up and de- feated Burlington in an overtime period after trailing all the way until the last minute. Richard Crowder, towering pivot man, led the season's scoring and missed the conference scoring honor by only two points. Crowder had copped this honor last season. Bill Hartley and Bill Hun- sucker followed Crowder in the scoring column besides playing brilliant defensive ball. All three of these boys were placed on the all-conference team, with Nelvin Cooper getting honorable mention. Coach Tony Simeon shifted his starting line up several times this season because of injuries to the team and good showing by the reserves. Co- Captain Jack Hawks, Billy Ray Hunsucker, Bill Ellington, and Ray Watson shared most of the work at the forward spots. Richard Crowder started every game at center and proved to be an iron man for the Bison. Truett Grant was Crowder's first line sub and played brilliantly in spots. Co-Captain Bill Hartley, Nelvin Cooper, and Frank von Drehle shared the starting assign- ments as guards to give the Pointers a set of reliable back-court men. The Pointers will be able to send a team on the court next year that has seen extensive service, but it will be handicapped by the lack of reserves as most of them are upper classmen. Bill Elling- ton and Billy Ray Hunsucker will return as for- wards, and Richard Crowder will be at his re- gular center post with Kenneth Yarborough and Jack White at the guard positions. Bill Hartley, smooth working guard, was named by popular vote of the squad as the most valuable player, and Billy Ray Hunsucker and Richard Crowder were named Co-Captains for next year.

Bottom right: These 'fathletic girls catch a little sun between innings. In September the girls greeted the opening of school and a new teacher, Miss Lee Bledsoe. The first sport undertaken by Miss Bledsoe and her students was soccer, which was carried on until the cold weather drove the players inside. On the whole, a very good basketball tourna- ment was enjoyed by the girls. After-school parti- cipation Was greatly encouraged and several out- of-town trips were made in which our intramural teams competed with intramural teams of other cities. At the completion of the basketball season, as both the freshman-sophomore and junior-senior proms were approaching, Miss Bledsoe instructed her classes in dancing. She taught Waltzing, box- ing, etc., to help the girls obtain grace and poise. Directly following the course in dancing, the girls began volleyball. As this sport requires much skill, many participated and intramural teams were formed. As the days began to grow warmer, girls' gym classes felt the call of spring and went out-of- doors. There they carried on softball and other sports. All in all, the entire season was very successful. u5124Ev Coached exclusively by athletic director Tony Simeon, the boys' physical education classes start- ed the year with vigorously contested games of tag football. As the cold weather drew nearer, the boys met in the gymnasium for instruction in basketball, Wrestling, and gymnastics. VVarm days came again and the boys went to the showers, dripping with sweat from softball, tennis, and track. These classes not only trained the boys in the various sports, but also impresed upon them the necessity of fair play and good sportsmanship. It encouraged them to participate in the varsity sports, for much competition is needed to make successful athletes. Top: Boys' gym classes engage in a fast-moving tag football game.

VVe should like to mention in particular a few persons Whose services have been most valuable: Bob Hester, associate editor, Pat Conrad, engrav- ing editor, Ted Hodge, photography editor, Claude lVlcKinney, art editor, Joyce Linthicum, printing editor, Bob Renfrow, copy editor, Jeanne Kline, feature editor, Bill Campbell, sports editor and Jon Barnes for his assistance in class layouts. Much thanks is due Miss Dorothy Hollar, our adviser, with- out Whose guidance this book would have been impossible. VVe should also mention the members of the business staff: Barbara George, Frances Griffith, Helen Rigby, Robert Shackelford, Anita Withers, Gloria Savvas, and Walter Tice, the copy staff, and the underclass staff members. The 1947 Pemiccm would also like to express its deep appreciation both to Mr. Gordon Brightman of Jahn and Ollier Engraving Company, to Mr. Charles Pierce of Hall Printing Company, and to the entire staff of VVootten-Nloulton. Their cooperation has been more than we could ask for, and their services have added much to the success of the book. We should like to mention Miss Muriel Bulwinkle for her excellent Work in editing copy, Mr. D. P. VVhitley for his full-hearted cooperation, and the entire faculty for their sympathy and encouragement. We hope that you will like this book and that it will mean much to you as you leave High Point High School, some for the last time. We hope also that it will help to perpetuate those things for which Ralph Vance, the City of High Point, and High Point High School stand. And finally We hope that in future years it may be not just a link that recalls a few memories of high school, but a publication through which a way of life at High Point High School can again become a reality.
