JEAN CARROLL Editor V JACK GREENE Business Manager FOREWORD As the lens of a camera focuses the details of an image upon the Elm in the camera, just so we hope the con- tents of this book will focus upon your memory the friends. the class- mates, and the outstanding events of the year 1940-41. If you, in glanc- ing over the pages of this volume. should recall these happy by-gone days. and if you. recalling them, experience the pleasure which only such memories evoke. then our hopes will be fulklled and our work will not have been in vain. BooK ONE BooK THREE CLASSES ATHLETICS BooK Two BooK EoUR ORGANIZATIONS FEATURES BooK FIVE ADVERTISEMENTS DEDICATICN r To MRS MYRTIS J MACKEY This hook was but a hlank page on our hands . Hour by hour did nothing more than pass. Mere idle thoughts from a silent class. But we. as though captives held in bands, Kept looking for one who stands Apart from the others of the mass: And to you our eyes were Cast, For you never falter nor demand, You work with us with joy and pride: You neuer leaue 'till the task is done. Our genuine friend and leader true, Our thanks indeed are exemplified, For now the class of '41 Dedicates this book to you. FACULTY vj rf! SH ING HARRY P. HAIQIJ SupczinlcmlvnI MR, .I. R.

Theirs is a friendship we'll ever hold dear. Our cherished memories. dear school. of thee Pace 'IllL'f'l7ftl SENIGR CLASS I-IISTGRY The class of 1941 registered at Harding High School in September, 1935-a new class in a new school. for that was the year that this school first opened its doors. What a year the seventh grade was! With changing classes, using lockers. losing all our possessions, and coping with seven teachers, we two hundred and seven seventh graders were really in the middle of our high school daze. ' As soon as schedules were arranged, locker numbers were learned, and lesson-assignments were in order, we elected our first class officers: president, Tom Lefler: vice-president, Ed Watt: secretary, Louise Hagler: and treasurer. Jack Greene. Mrs. Lois Summerville was our class adviser. Our first class meeting was soon held, and we unanimously selected our school motto: Great Oaks from Little Acorns Grow. During this first year our school song, Harding High Forever, was chosen, and the first edition of Till? ACORN was published. Miss Edna Triplett was the hrst adviser for THE ACORN. Mrs. Willie S. Shore organized a public speaking club containing sixty members in March, 1936. and it made its first public appearance in the auditorium on April 24. Many fine presenta- tions were given by students of our class: talks and sayings by Joe Messina. Edna Mae Moody, Alice Beaver, Bob Cherry, and Betty Jean Goodson. A debate was also given: the query being: Harding High School Should Have Honor Study Halls : the affirmative won. Later that year another debate was given, Resolved: North Carolina Should Abolish Capital Punish- ment : the negative side won. In the eighth grade, we, like veterans, were inclined to look down on the lowly seventh graders. We elected officers: president, Bob Cherry: vice-president, James Baldwin: secretary. Marie Nelson: treasurer, Margaret Funderburke. The Harding Hi-Lights was organized, giving our class its first school newspaper. Several members from our class served on the staff. They were Betty Sarratt. Helen Daniels, Joe Messina, Tom Lefler, Bob Cherry, Marie Nelson, Margaret Hunter, and Nancy Sharpe. A gala picnic was given at Bryant Park. What a time we had that day playing baseball and eating hot dogs! In the ninth grade our class officers were: president, Joe Messina: vice-president, Betty Sarratt: secretary, Margaret Seegers: and treasurer, Claude Hudson. Our social activities included a weiner roast held at the school on the coldest night of that year! Hot dogs really tasted good after we had run relay races and played other games to keep warm. Later in the year our grade mother, Mrs. T. G. Hunter, gave us a formal Valentine party at her home on West Fifth Street. At the helm in the tenth grade were: president, Bronze Trull: vice-president, Alice Beaver: secretary. Erskine Deaton: and treasurer, J. B. Orr. That year seemed to be one of study for all of us, it being our first year of senior-high school. Our officers in the eleventh grade were: president, Henry Stokes: vice-president, Margaret Funderburke: secretary, Audrey Parish: and treasurer, Betty Jo Reinhardt. After many Cmissb trials and happy tand other wisej experiences, the year was super-climaxed by the Junior-Senior Banquet held in Efird's dining room on May 17. The banquet was carried out on a Mexican Fiesta theme, with the Senors and Senoritas clad in formal attire. What a time we had reading our menus printed in Mexican! Everything. however, turned out to be in the good old American plan. Toastmaster for the occasion was Henry Stokes. class president. Mr. Tewkesbury was enjoyed along with ensalada do pena and tajada de carne asada. Several other enjoyable talks were given for the benefit of the under-grads as well as the graduates. Junior Marshals that year were: Jean Allison. Jean Carroll. Joe Messina. Lewis Padgett, Betty Jo Reinhardt. J. C. Rhyne. Margaret Seegers. Nancy Sharpe, Eel Watt, and Jack Greene. The officers who led us through the first semester of the final stanza were: president. Wallace Bunn: vice-president, Jean Carroll: secretary, Kitty Kendall: and treasurer, Jack Moore. The officers for the second semester are: president, Wallace Bunn: vice-president, Margaret Seegers: secretary, Kitty Kendall: treasurer. Jack Moore. A swell job they have done, too. With the promotion of sports, dances, movies. and other extra-curricular activities, they have made this. our concluding year. a pleasant and exciting one. One of our best-known and best-liked young ladies won fame and recognition, not only for herself, but also for old Harding. She is Margaret Seegers. who was presented a silver loving cup by the Charlotte Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She well-deserved it. too. We hardly had time to get used to school again after the Christmas holidays. we were allowed another two weeks vacation due to a flu epidemic. Afterwards we managed to stumble through the mid-term exams. Then, in February, came that event to which every Senior Class looks forward-the Senior Class play! After we had received our final Annual at Harding, the Junior-Senior Banquet was held. And so commencement, and the final curtain falls.

An increased instrumentation and enrollment enlarged the orchestras musical scope, and work was begun immediately on numbers which exceeded in difficulty anything that the group had ever before attempted. 'l'he orchestral concert which was given early in the winter was a great success and the organi- zation received warm praise from an enthusiastic audience. At the March meeting of the National Music liducators' Conference the Orchestra played before a national committee of music teachers from the Southern District of the United States, Later in the year, the orchestra competed in the spring music contests with fine distinction.
