Dedication of the 1967 ZENITH Goes To one whom we feel truly deserves this honor. He is an example and inspiration to those around him and gives willingly of his time to benefit others. He is a loyal friend to all his students, and one to whom we proudly dedicate the 1967 ZENITH. Respected by his fellow teachers and loved and admired by his students, he has made contributions in his field which have been great credit for High Point College.
