()jr remt 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.

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. 1 GIDEON IRELAND HUMPHREYS, A.M., D.D. PRESIDENT BOARD OF TRUSTEES Executive Committee H. A.

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. 1 t ' Ktm !!

Morning and evening, Aviation is making its thrilling stories of spanning an ocean or continent, of the discovery of a lost city, of the rescue of the storm-bound or the flood-trapped, and of the strength- ening of international friendships. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Coach C. Virch Ymv All athletics of the college are under the guidance and control of the Athletic Associa- tion. This group, composed of five faculty members and two representatives ftom the student body, provides a well-rounded athletic program which enables us to stand at the top in the North State Conference. It supervises the scheduling of games, enforce- ment of all conference rules, determining the eligibility of players and the awarding of monograms. It srrives for rlie highest in sportsmanship in college athletics. Page SI DlAMONT P[ RW ' Atm Brinkley Martin Fo vaud Intrieri Culler Booi H Center Harris 1 ! ■ . I I I.

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.

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. Page S3 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. Page 54 iif ' XVirji . m ' f 1 ' « m  m 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. Page Si Humf rttys, Cooper, Setter, Jartctt, Hornady Roger Nierniee, Whit? 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. Page 57 WO MAN ' S ATH LET I C COUNCIL The Woman ' s Athletic Council is the gov- erning board of the association and is composed of its officers and various sports managers. The Athletic Council looks after such rou- tine duties as the nomination of officers, the selection of pledge week, and the awarding or honors. The main purpose of the council is to uphold the fundamental aims of the entire as- sociation and to recommend to the society worthwhile activities. The following are officers who served on the Woman ' s Athletic Council during the past year: Lillian Varner Pauline Parker Jacqueline Cameron Margaret Dixon Marguerite Jenkins Virginia Grant Dorothy Bell Inza Hill President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Editor Hiking Manager Sergeant-at-Arms Publicity Chairman Page 53 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. ?aqe 5? 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 Cup, The final scores were: Sophomores 46; Seniors 15 Juniois 30; Seniors 26 Freshmen 34; Juniors 23 Freshmen 38; Seniors 37 Sophomores 42; Juniors 24 Freshmen 32; Sophomores 25 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. Page 40 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. Page il TU MBLI NG 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. Page H tv 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.

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. Snidek, Austin Rulfs.

Wood rsqe 73 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.

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. Stiuewalt, Morgan. Fuik, Feuree Pittard, Gaklington, Wood Page 64 C • PARHAM PARKtR PEKRV 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. • 9 Pagt as 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 ' 411 III ■ ■I Page 84 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. • d Page 87 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. Page 35 LOIS HEDGECOCK LINCOLN FULK 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 t he 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. Pdqt 87 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.

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. t Page ?8 V 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. COLLEGE LIFE IN SPOTS It was just a romance in the fall. The Freshmen even knitted in the Foyer Yes, ih.

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 coll ege. 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.
