In the evening these men renewed their former friendship and talked over the many pleasant memories of their college days. One of the men brought forth something which he regarded as a priceless treasure — the college annual published by his class. The four men spent almost the entire night in turning the pages of the annual and again living through their college days. In order that the present students of Lenoir Rhyne may later review the pleasant memories of their college days, as did the four men who met at the convention, and in order that they may again live through their college experiences, the staff pub- lishes this volume of THE HacAWA. The theme of this book touches on the history of North Carolina, picturing certain events in its growth and certain men whose unselfish devotion and service made this growth possible. May this state continue to progress and may the graduates of Lenoir Rhyne continue to figure in this progress. onewjO u£ HACAWA Book I THE COLLEGE Book II THE CLASSES Book III ACTIVITIES Book IV ATHLETICS Book V FEATURES Book VI ADVERTISEMENTS «HACAWA To Victor Vard Aderholdt Professor of History AN ALUMNUS Loyal and devoted A TEACHER Unhampered by precedent Unfettered by convention Respectful of tradition But bound only by truth A FRIEND Open-minded, broad-minded fair and just We dedicate this book as an expres- sion of our respect and gratitude. :rr=xy: cr: eaccauony i ' hacawa:5 =W = :? ■ ' m m m leciica Jke LENOIR. A FTER Columbus discovered America, the Cabots won for England a claim to the [ _ northern part of the New World. However, for several years England gave but little attention to America until the two half-brothers. Sir Humphrey Gilbert and Sir Walter Raleigh, aroused in England the desire to establish colonies across the ocean. Gilbert ' s attempt to settle America failed, but after his death Raleigh made ready two ships under the command of Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlowe who reached the New World on July 4, 1384, and dropped anchor in Pamlico Sound off the coast of what is now North Carolina. They returned to England with two Indians and the newly found potato and tobacco plants. Raleigh continued to expend enormous sums of money in fitting out several more colonizing expeditions under Lane and White, but these attempts at permanent settlement in North Carolina failed. It was not until some years later, the exact date being unknown, that some people who had originally settled in Virginia migrated south into the present state of North Carolina to begin permanent settlements in the Albemarle Sound region.

Here was the magnifi- cent governor ' s palace, erected by Governor Tryon, and surpassing any other building in the colonies. This rapidly growing town was an emporium of trade with wealthy merchants, enterprising citizens and cultivated society. Originally settled by the Huguenots, Palatines, and Swiss, by industrious Germans as well as by Welsh and ' Englishmen, the region of which it was the social metropolis was inhabited by a popu- lation notable for their thrift, politeness and fine characteristics. Here the first academy had been established and maintained; here the first printing press was erected, and here the first newspaper, The North Carolina Gazette, was published in De- cember, 1775. RHYME Book T OK I wo SENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN SENIOR I 935 Judge Richard Henderson H A C A W A Senior Class History The candle — our class of ' 33 — was lit in the autumn of 1929, and through four years of college life it has burned brightly, lighting the way for those behind us. The drops of tallow are the good deeds that we have managed to accomplish along the way. And now the flame of the candle begins to sputter, for its life is nearly finished; the four years are nearly past. But while the candle hesitates and flickers before going out. let us look back on those glorious years that we have left behind. We must confess that, as Freshmen, we were a bit bewildered for a time. but it can truthfully be said that not a week had passed before we all felt thoroughly at home, and this warm feeling has never left us throughout our entire stay here. Then came organization and we began to feel that we were beginning to amount to a little something, at least. And when we were per- mitted to discard our Freshman caps, we were probably even conceited for a little while, but this attitude did not last long for we soon found out that we were still Freshmen and that there were still plenty of rules that must be observed. Now, in looking back, we can realize as we didn ' t realize then, that our first year was one of the best, and its scenes will long hold a prominent place in our memory. The next year found us busy making life miserable for the newcomers, and we left no stone unturned in our quest for means of more and better torture for those beneath us. But we soon tired of this pastime and turned our atten- tion to more worthwhile things. It was during this year that we hit our stride in athletics, winning the football and basketball championships of the classes. Upon our return to Lenoir Rhyne in the fall of ' 31, we found ourselves entering upon a gay and care-free year of campus life; we learned the meaning of the words Jolly Juniors, for everywhere we went there seemed to be noth- ing but gayety and frivolity. But during this year, in our more serious mo- ments, we were planning for our final year, and there was not one of our num- ber who had not decided to make his Senior his best. So last autumn, when we came back for our final quaff from the cup of college life, we were all resolute in our intentions to make all our activities to count for a finer spirited life at Lenoir Rhyne. We believe that we have suc- ceeded. Our concluding year has been truly our best; we have enjoyed every minute of it. We are proud to graduate from a college as noble as Lenoir Rhyne. We rejoice that we have come through the four years of qualification and are standing at the gateway of life. But with our rejoicing there is a tinge of sadness, for there are those who must leave, from whom it is hard to part — old friends, tried and true. And there are scenes and places which we will always look back upon in wistful remembrance. In parting we pledge to all with whom we have been associated a high and noble place in our memories: and to Lenoir Rhyne College we give grateful and hearty thanks for all she has accomplished for us. To her ideals and aspirations, we here solemnly pledge our allegiance. The candle — our class of ' 33 — flickers. Its life is nearly spent. For a few fleeting moments longer it burns brightly, then sputters and goes out. But the drops of tallow remain.

P g ' of Junior Class Officers Robert Barkley President Charles Hemphill Vice-President Lois Peery Secretary-Treasurer Kathryn Perry Historian Junior Class History In September, 1930, the present Junior class was admitted into the classic halls of Lenoir Rhyne College. At first some of us were keenly disappointed with the realities of college life, but most of us were satisfied. We chose capable Ray Overcash to guide us through the uncertainties of our first college year. Who can ever forget those early days of persecution and humiliation at the hands of the all-wise, all-powerful, all-scornful Sophomores. ' ' After the first two or three weeks, we became accustomed to college professors, schedules, rules, and Sophomores. We began to lose our timid, frightened air. and we found that we, too, could take part in college affairs with impunity. We de- veloped a sense of comradeship and unity through our participation in college activities. We came to love Lenoir Rhyne. In our Sophomer year, we again chose Ray as our president. We recognized the fact that in our class we had leaders who could compare favorably with those in higher classes. We were well represented in every phase of college work. With Bob Barkley leading us in our Junior year, we feel that we have made many worthy contributions to the life of the college. During this leader- ship year, we have done our utmost to develop and exercise those qualities nec- essary to successful leadership. We are now facing the last year of our college career. The goal of our striving is coming into view. We face it with the determination to make the last year of our college life even more successful than the years that have passed.

We were fresh and bright from high school and were expecting a fine year. We got it, though some of us dropped out at the end of the first semester. Although many of our number did not return this year, some new ones were added, and we arc still a large class when we are together. This year of 1932-33 has been designated as Leadership Year for our College. Our class is doing its best to make it a real Leadership Year and we intend to carry on and do our part in making every year as outstanding. Last year we were ably led by Luther Stirewalt as president. This year we are under the leadership of Robert Rhyne. The class of 1935 has entered into as many different college activities as one class can. We have members from our class on the football, basketball, tennis and baseball teams. Many of our members rank high in scholastic achievements. Some are officers in the various campus clubs. We are well represented on the staffs of the college publications. When this year is over, we do not expect to let the spirit of leadership on the campus die out, for we will be back as Juniors, ready to keep on working for a bigger and better Lenoir Rhyne, Page Sevenly-two 33 H A C A W A Lincolnton, N.

Mauney Secretary-Treasurer Alice Deal Historian Freshman Class h istory Blue Monday? No! It was a green Monday, that fifth of September. 1932. About 125 models of what good little boys and girls should be ( . ' ' ) — could be seen over the campus wherever one would least expect to see them. And those adorable little models are the Freshmen — the same Freshmen who still persist in doing the wrong thing at the wrong time. From the first they filled the lives of the Sophomores with the pleasures that only Sophomores can truly appreciate. But seriously now — with that Monday the history of the class of ' 36 began. Although it is not yet filled with startling events, it has been duly recognized as having prospects of the brightest. Our Freshman class contains material from which the best is going to be developed. It has already furnished its share of participants in athletics, whose names, as well as those of students of promising scholastic ability, will become more familiar to the public within the next few years. Rather than a history or record of past achievements, we Freshmen have only a promise for the future to offer: but that promise is one of many and worthy ambitions realized, our college honored, and success attained.

Each day we are gaining confidence in ourselves and feel that we are not only being prepared to meet any test that may be given at school but that we shall be able to meet the tests of the future. We have found that happiness and pleasant satisfaction await the one who works. Much we owe to our faithful instructor for any knowledge that we may have picked up and for our happy days here. Together with all the other lasting memories we have found here, we will carry along with us the memory of the president of our college and mem- ories of the faculty. Handicapped by the fact that the commercial course is only of one year ' s duration, we Commercial students are not able to take leading parts in any campus activity, but we have furnished active and hard-working members to the various organizations and as a result have done much to make this year a truly leadership year. It is a sad realization that we shall not be here for three more years, but we take our departure with high hopes and with the consoling thought that we may always share in making a Greater and Better Lenoir Rhyne.

On July 21, the two hundred and eighty-four members gathered in the Presbyterian Church in Hillsboro. Out of respect for his office. Governor Johnston was chosen president. Largely due to the influence of Willie Jones, this convention refused to approve the Constitution. Nevertheless, many people saw how troublesome it would be for North Carolina to live alone. Petitions poured into the Legislature and that body ordered a new convention to be held in November, 1789, at Fayetteville. On November 21, 1789, this convention ratified the Constitution and North Carolina became one of the states of the United States.

Iota Chi Sigma Helen Schroeder President John Bryan Vice-President Ethel Hockemeyer Secretary-Treasurer William Freed Baliff The Iota Chi Sigma is an honorary journalistic fraternity which was organized on the Lenoir Rhyne campus several years ago as a medium for stimulating more and better work from the students in journalism and to reward in a definite way those students whose untiring efforts and enthusiasm have made possible the college paper and the annual. The local chapter was directly connected with the national organization until a year ago when the latter merged with a larger fraternity. Due to lack of finances the Lenoir Rhyne group has not yet affiliated with the newly merged fraternity, but it plans to do so as soon as it is convenient. On the campus the fraternity serves to promote a feeling of friendship and cooperation between the two staffs and to maintain high standards for the publications. This year a number of new pledges were initiated in recognition of their services on and interest in the staff of the weekly paper and the annual. From time to time meetings are held to discuss and learn of some phase of journalism. Aside from its literary activities the fraternity stages varied and extremely pleasurable social events, including an annual spring banquet. Page Ninety-three 33 H A C A W A tf Sf « l  v Ferdinand Rumke Edilor-in-Chief John Bryan Business Manager The Hacawa As another year goes rolling along, the school term is swiftly and relentlessly drawn to a close. In accordance with the custom which has prevailed for the past twenty-three years, the present staff offers this twenty-fourth volume of THE HACAWA to the students of Lenoir Rhyne College, with the hope that it will compare favorably with the past editions. Naturally it is desired that the publication of thi.s volume will be worthwhile in that it will furnish pleasant hour.s of enjoyment to many as well as to prove a valuable handbook for future reference to those events that have taken place on our campus during the school year. It is universally recognized that nothing can be efficiently and perfectly done unless every individual concerned becomes interested, enthusiastic and willing to support the project. Ana- logously, until every student of Lenoir Rhyne becomes interested and willing to aid in the publication of THE HACAWA. the best possible and a complete annual can not be secured. The present staff has done much in the way of arousing the interest of every student in the annual. It has succeeded in obtaining more individual pictures than ever before and has experimented with a new method of raising financial support by means of a publication fee which every student pays by means of quarterly installments. The results of this method of collecting fees have been somewhat disappointing, but it is hoped that in the future the students will rally to the support of THE HACAWA and consequently a bigger and better annual will be the inevitable result.

By the virtue of the constitution that was drawn up in 1 ' J M . the publication was brought under the direct control of the student body, the members of the staff being elected by the competitive system and being responsible to the student body. A method which has proven very satisfactory and efiicicnt. The purpose of The Lenoir Rhynean is ro portray to the students the life and activities of the campus, making of them a written record so that they may be referred to in later years and in order that they may form a standing memorial of our college life at Lenoir Rhyne. The realization that a college newspaper has immense possibilities is evident in the fact that the motto of The Lenoir Rhynean is For a greater Lenoir Rhyne. In addition to being an excellent form of advertising, through its medium much good can be brought about. To this end we have endeavored to censor our columns and not publish anything except that which was for the benefit and betterment of our college. Yet we are trying to take and present a fair stand on all matters, trying not to appear radical yet striving to bring about reforms which we think will be for our mutual good. To carry out the traditions and purposes of the weekly publication more appreciation should be felt on the part of the entire student body, and more support should be given the staff members for they themselves cannot make The Lenoir Rhynean truly representative of Lenoir Rhyne College.

The debates for both men and. women were on the question: Resolved, that Congress should enact legislation provid- ing for the centralized control of industry, constitutionality waived. As only one former debater among the men, namely Lex Barkley, was available, new material had to be developed. Dent Summers, a freshman, and George Chapman, a sopho- more, with Gordon Keller as alternate, up- held the affirmative, while Marshall Shives, a freshman, and Lex Barkley, a junior, defended the negative. On March 4 the affirmative won over Elon at Elon College by a split decision; at home the negative easily won unanimously. The same negative on March 1 1 defeated High Point College at High Point two to one, but at home the affirmative lost by a unanimous vote. On March 1 5 a hotly contested dual debate with Appalachian was lost by split decisions. The record made was a remarkable achievement in view of the fact that all debaters with one exception were inexperienced. The women debaters were even more successful than the men. On March 12 the negative team, composed of Helen Miller and Emma Fritz, won at home over Tennessee Teachers College of Johnson City by a split decision; the affirmative, Rebecca Lawrence and Emma Fritz, on April 7, won by a unanimous decision over Winthrop (S. C. ) College at Rock Hill, and the fol- lowing night the negative defeated the Wofford (S. C. ) College men at home by a split decision. The three senior girl debaters, with Emma Fritz again upholding both sides, entered the Ashcville Tournament of the Southern Associ- ation of Teachers of Speech, m which sixteen institutions from seven states took part. During the three days of the tournament, April 13-15, the girls won three and lost three debates, defeating such strong schools as Murray Teachers College of Kentucky, and Wake Forest College. Lenoir Rhyne placed third in this tournament for the debate champion- ship of the South. The work of Rebecca Lawrence was good, that of Helen Miller excellent, and that of Emma Fritz outstanding. In Oratory a commendable record was also made. At the Asheville Tournament Emma Fritz participated in the oratory nominating contest. On April 15 Mac Teufel, jointly coached by Miss Pearl Setzer and Dr. Albert Keiser, Page Ninety eight 33 H A C A W A - ' ••■ ' • Ncgativ Ehrhart Neaative Chapman Affimatim Barklev Ncgath ' c won the Women ' s Oratorical Contest held at Asheville Normal and Teachers College. The subject of her oration was The New Frontier. Since Lenoir Rhyne had won the oratorical trophy, a silver plaque, three times, it came into the permanent possession of the school. Evelyn Ballentine and Harriet Teufel had been the previous winning orators. Speaking on Washington, A True Guide in Time of Need, Lex Barkley represented the college in the State Oratorical Contest at Lenoir Rhyne April 22. On May 6, Luther Stirewalt, a freshman, with his oration, Education — the Road to Peace, participated in the State Peace Contest at Raleigh. The high standards of honor, fair dealing, and thorough preparation of speakers characterizing the forensic activities of the college are being recognized far and wide. Her forensic coach. Dr. Albert Reiser, has been for some time the executive secretary and treasurer of the North Carolina Intercollegiate For- ensic Association as also secretary of the N. C. Intercollegiate Peace Association. In addition he has been chosen as director of the Tri-State Forensic Tourna- ment to be held this year. The excellent work in both Oratory and Debating has received national recognition by Pi Kappa Delta, largest and most exacting forensic honor society in the United States, for it admits Lenoir Rhyne debaters and orators to membership in the General Chapter.

She takes each year vision, determination, and faith, develops it into Reaching down into that strange part of one, Playmaking touches the soul and causes it to vibrate with an appreciation of art, work, and play. With its artistic, scholastic, and aesthetic qualities, it cultivates the body, mind, and heart. It is leadership training. Its beauty and spirit enthrall one and gives him a desire to create. Miss Pearl Setzer is a leader, giving the raw material given to her and with he actors and authors. In the spring of 1932, after the Playmakcrs had been to the dramatic tournament at Chapel Hill and won honors there, they put on a program of readings and plays for the Mother ' s Day Celebration. A very artistic pageant in honor of the George Washington Bicen- tennial was presented for the May Day festival. Ferenc Molnar ' s romantic comedy, The Swan, was given as the commencement play. The Playmakers started their seventh year with Little Woman, a play taken from the novel by Louisa M. Alcott. This play had a double cast and was given in Hickory, States- ville and Lenoir. Previous to and after this several one-act plays, The Woman Who Under- stood Men, The Wedding Rehearsal, The Pot Boiler. Saved, Fourteen, and others were presented at literary society, Y. W. C. A., and other meetings. The casts of these plays were from the new playmakers and the plays were directed by fraternity members under the supervision of Miss Setzer. The Christmas pageant for this year was The Spirit of Friendship, written by Miss Setzer, This was given at St, Andrew ' s Church and also at a Rotary meeting at Hotel Hickory. After Christmas the annual Author ' s Reading was held and five of the eight plays read: Judgment Delayed, by Edith Huffman of Hickory: The Last Resort, by Lex Barkley of Statesville; Guarded, by John Bryan of Hickory: Pink Drops, by Susie Iscnhour of Conover: and Roses for the Crippled, by Elizabeth Hewitt of Lattimore, were sent to enter the playwriting contest at Chapel Hill. The first four of these were produced by the Play- makers in Hickory on March 24. Judgment Delayed will be presented at the Dramatic Tournament at Chapel Hill. The Playmakers will also present at this tournament Saint Cyprian and the Devil, by Ethel Van de Veer, This play is of the early Christian era and with it Lenoir Rhyne will compete with Duke and other North Carolina colleges. Page One Hundred Two 33 H A C A W A Glee Club Obviously a music department is important to any college in many ways. And a music department is incomplete without a glee club. Such an organi- zation broadens the field of music, giving lovers of that particular art an oppor- tunity to participate who otherwise would find it impossible to express their musical talent and appreciation. The Glee Club of Lenoir Rhyne College, with its capable instructors, and with the assistance of the faculty and student body has made for itself a distinguished name not only throughout the immediate vicinity but through- out other sections of the state. In the past years, the Glee Club has given concerts in many different cities. These perfo rmances have always been exceedingly successful and it is prophesied that the Glee Club will maintain its splendid reputation during the present season.

W, C. A. are united in one purpose, the reahzation of full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God, and the making of this life more pleasant and less wearisome for all people. Through the activities of the Young Women ' s Christian Association, life on the Lenoir Rhyne campus is made richer and fuller. Even before they arrive at the college the new girl students receive letters of welcome from some of the members of the organization and on their arrival they find that it is the Y. W. girls who further welcome them and help them in all ways possible in becoming adjusted to their now surroundings. The Y. W. gives the new Page One Hundred Four 33 H A C A W A girls big sisters. who take a personal interest in them. The big sister, little sister break- fast, an annual affair, makes the new found sisters the best of friends. The faculty reception for students, the Mothers ' Day week-end. teas, parties, picnics, a hiking club, ball games, the welcoming of visitors. Bible reading, chapel programs, and annual Christmas caroling arc sponsored. Topics used in the weekly meetings arc varied and interesting. The programs which consist of plays, discussions, or musical programs are usually conducted by the girls themselves but outsiders who are interested in the work are sometimes invited to talk. Discussion plays an important part and all of the girls are encouraged to express their views on the subject under discussion. Some of the subjects that have been considered were etiquette, vocations, art. music, recreation, the ideal girl, happiness, make-up. clothing and interior decorating. At Christmas many toys were given to children whose parents were unable to pay Santa Claus. Baskets of food have been taken to several families and visits to the sick have been made. The organization this year purchased a supply of china, which may be used for social activities of any kind that may be held at Mauney Hall. The Y. W. fosters a closer relationship between the town girls and the boarding students. It seeks to aid the members in finding themselves and in making them finer women mentally, morally and physically. The Y. W. girls feel that they have done their part in making this year in which leader- ship has been so actively and enthusiastically stressed a success. The girls have generously given their time and efforts to become leaders in the many campus activities: they have striven to conduct themselves in such a manner that others might follow their example and be benefited thereby: and ' most important of all is the fact that these girls are preparing themselves for leadership not only during this year but all the years that are yet to come. Page One Hundred Five H A C A W A German Club OFFICERS Wade Yount President Roger McArver Vice-President Julian Whitener Secretary-Treasurer In this modernistic era of civilization, a cultured and intellectual person is synonymous with one who is not only familiar with the spoken language, literature, and customs of his own people but also with the life and language of the people who live beyond the boundaries of his own native land. To produce this requisite of culture as far as the foreign language itself is concerned, an adequate system of modern languages is given at Lenoir Rhyne. including German. French and Spanish. This department of education is under the excellent leadership of Professor H. O. Anderson who. realizing that the formal class periods are not enough for the students to gain sufficient knowledge of the life and customs of the foreign people themselves, organized what is known as the German Club. The members of this club are not exclusively those who are taking a course in German. hut any one who so desires may join the organization. The programs presented at the club meetings are very interesting and instructive. Very helpful and information-bearing talks arc made. The outstanding address of this year was made by Professor Anderson on The German Educational System. Page One Hundred Six 33 H A C A W A French Club OFFICERS RpBERT Rhyne President Cyrus Anderson Vice-President William MorETZ Secretary-Treasurer In the fall of 1928 the desire for a cluh which would promotG an interest in the French language and customs was born. This desire was realized when the French Club was organized the same year. With Professor Anderson capably directing the activities of the organization, the club has become a means of much educational value to those interested in France and her people. Meetings are held on the fourth Tuesday in each month. Topics of interest which deal with the spoken language and culture of France are presented to the members by some pro- fessor or some one who is acquainted with the subject. All conversation and speaking at these meetings are supposed to be carried on in the French tongue. The purpose of the club is to present to the members a practical knowledge of the social life and language of the French people as practiced in France at the present time.

The faculty considers the work so important that it has a standing committee on literary society work, with the head of the English Department. Dr. Albert Keiser. as its chairman. The aim of the society is the intellectual and cultural development of its members, this being brought about by papers, recitations, oratory, extemporaneous speaking, debates, and music. It endeavors to afford the participants an opportunity to become adept in the art of public appearance and to express themselves upon the platform, so that when similar occasions are encountered in life they may be met with no flinching on their part. A further aim is to acquaint the members with the rules of deliberative bodies and to cultivate their social and aesthetic nature. Socials are frequently held with the purpose of bringing the members into closer harmony and fellowship, which results in more and better cooperation, thus fostering and advancing all causes concerned. On account of the varied activities of the literary society, the meetings prove to be both interesting and instructive. The training that it affords is immensely important, a fact that is realized and verified by the interest shown in the society by the students. Page One Hundred Eight 53 3 H A C A W A Diakonian Club OFFICERS Luther Stirewalt President Jack LaslEY Vice-President Robert Shelby Secretary-Treasurer Many of the students who jrc pl.inning to enter the ministry and some who are interested in rehgious activities have banded themselves into an organization known as the Diakonian Club. This club is one of the most important factors fostering religious culture on the Lenoir Rhyne campus. The primary purpose of this organization is to help prepare students who intend to devote their lives to Christian service. However, this is not the only predominating objective of the club; it also endeavors to create, through its members, a desire in each and every student to gain fuller and better knowledge of God and the essentials of a Christian life. The Diakonians meet bi-weekly. These meetings are of various types — round table dis- cussions, lectures and an occasional social meeting. Many diverse topics are touched upon by the members during the round table discussions. Each member is given the opportunity to express his views and thus all members are benefited. Several persons who are active in the religious field have given beneficial addresses at these meetings. The social meetings create a finer feeling of fellowship among the members and tend to develop their social sides. The members have not limited their activity to the Lenoir Rhyne campus, but have extended their work in the surrounding communities and have thereby aided and benefited many. Page One Hundred Nine Ebxt 33 H A C A W A Luther League OFFICERS Jack LaslEY President Dent Summers Vice-President Evelyn Patterson Secretary -Treasurer The Luther League at Lenoir Rhyne College is one of the most important and influential organizations on the campus as it is definitely concerned with the spiritual and moral life of every student. The ultimate purpose of the Luther League is to create a higher standard of Christian life and Christian leadership in each and every student. This organization has been absolutely indispensable in advancing the creation of leadership in the religious phase of the leadership program at Lenoir Rhyne for this year. Each individual member is given the oppor- tunity to lead programs, to express views and opinions, and to learn other viewpoints on many subjects that assist in making an ideal Christian boy or girl. These programs are made interesting as well as instructive and creative. Another significant factor of the Luther League is that it helps to make better and more devout church members. Interest in the church and work of the church is one of the foremost objectives of this organization. Its motto is: Of the church, for the church, and by the church. In one sentence, therefore, the infinite impor- tance of the Luther League can be summarized as follows: It raises the standards of Christian life, helps to create Christian leadership, makes better church members, and in college makes better students and creates fellowship on the campus. tffl Page One Hundred Ten XVx 33 H A C A W A Young Men ' s Bible Class OFFICERS Dent Summers Superintendent Luther Stirewalt Assistant Superintendent Ruth Miller Secretary-Treasurer The Young Men ' s Bible Class was organized six years ago and has become a regular campus organization. The membership is composed of all the dormitory boys and any others who may be interested in attending. Professor Hackemann has served very efficiently as instructor ever since the class was organized. The purpose of the class is to give the young men an opportunity to assemble every Sunday morning in a classroom of the Administration Building, just as they are accustomed to do in their home churches, where they may become bettor acquainted with the Bible and thereby become better Christians. The members of this class have done much to make this Leadership Year a success; they have worked to have larger attendance at the Sunday morning class periods: they are pre- paring themselves for leadership in the religious field when college days are over: and they have made it possible for several families to enjoy Christmas by giving food and gifts. Attendance is not compulsory, but every one is urged to attend. There has always been a gratifying number present, proving that the class is truly beneficial and helpful. Page One Hundred Eleven 33 H A C A W A Young Ladies Bible Class OFFICERS Ruth Mangum President Ruth Cauble Vice-President Annie Ledbetter Secretary The young ladies residing on or near the college campus are organized into a Young Ladies ' Bible Class, which functions as a part of the College Department of St. Andrews Lutheran Sunday SchooL The class meets each Sunday morning for devotional and study periods. This year the members have had as their goal a bigger and better class, working together for the best interests of themselves and all others in the Sunday School. At the annual Sunday School Christmas Party, gifts of food and clothing were placed under the Christmas tree and were later distributed among several needy families in the community. The girls have visited several old people and shut-ins on Sundays during the year, talking or reading to them. Different members ha ' e gone each Sunday afternoon so that all might share in bringing cheer to these folks. During the fall the class had an outing in the woods, sponsored mainly to furnish some wholesome entertainment for the girls on Saturday afternoons. The outing was a Hallowe ' en surprise from Miss Helen Stabler, teacher of the class. More socials have been promised for the spring months. The girls have hoped that through their interest and cooperation in the work of the Sunday School, the students on the campus might be brought into a closer fellowship with each other and that the spirit of Christ might reach them in a more satisfying way. The members of the class deeply appreciate the work Miss Stahler has done as their leader and helper in all of the class activities. Page One Hundred Twelve 33 loiy LENOIR FIRST at Bethel; farthest to the front at Gettysburg; and last to Appomatox — thus was North Carolina in the great War Between the States. The war was begun at Bethel Church in Virginia. After two unsuccessful attacks upon the Southern forces, the Federal troops retreated towards Fortress Monroe. During the first attack, five men including Henry L. Wyatt of the North Carolina regiment, offered to burn a house which was giving shelter to some Northern riflemen. In this attempt Wyatt was killed and as a result won the undying fame of being the first Southerner to fall in regular battle in Ihe war. During the Battle of Gettysburg, North Carolina brigades were among those fight- ing farthest in the front. When the number of Confederate deaths was finally ascer- tained, it was found that the regiments of North Carolina had lost 4,033; that is, more than every fourth man that fell at Gettysburg was a North Carolinian. As the awful conflict between the North and the South was drawing to a close, it was General Grimes ' division of North Carolinians who made the last charge before the mournful day at Appomatox, where on April 9, 186.5, the remnant of as peerless an army as ever marched under banners sadly surrendered.

These students have organized for the pur- pose of promoting a bigger and better Lenoir Rhyne through clean athletics, a high type of sportsmanship, and forceful leadership. There is a president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer nominated from the floor. The procedure is according to regular parliamentary regulations. Each member is pledged to uphold the constitution and by-laws at all times. The athletes of the various sports are brought together fraternally, and therefore strive for a common goal without dissension. The L Club is not merely a group of athletes with athletics as a sole objective. Leadership is one of the ideals. In every organization on the campus will be found its members as officers and leaders. The L Club members are among the most prominent students of Lenoir Rhyne, bearing out the adage a healthy mind in a healthy body. The wearers of the L through their club effectively present their ideals to the student body and strive for recognition, commendation, and adoption. Certain social activities are sponsored by the members and common interests guarantee congeniality. This is an all-round club deserving approval.

Five letter- men of last season, four of whom were regulars, answered the opening call, and this quintet of experienced men was augmented by several members of the previous years squad and a host of new material. Two games were played before the Christmas holidays. The Yadkinville All-Stars, composed of former college luminaries, were completely annihilated 72-3 2 by the smooth- working Red and Black team. Practically the entire local squad participated in the game and Little. Leath and Payne shot baskets from all angles. The fast-stepping Charlotte Y five managed to nose out our boys next in a well- played game, and after the holidays they repeated the do,se on their own court. Stasavich and Payne were unable to play in this game. The next five games were with Conference foes — two were dropped to Appalachian and Catawba, and High Point. W. C. T. C and Guilford were defeated, the latter by a tre- mendous margin on the home court. After mid-term examinations, the boys took a trip into Tennessee and western North Carolina. Although fine ball was played, three of the games were lost by close scores and W. C. T. C. was turned back in a great battle due to Little ' s phenomenal basket with only three seconds to go. Four straight conference games were played at home with the Bears emerging victorious in three — taking the scalp off of the Catawba Indians in addition to A. C. C. and Elon. A three-day conference trip remained with the Bears having to defeat Elon and one other team. This was done — the season ' s climax was a great victory over Guilford to bag the first conference title for Lenoir Rhyne. After being laid ofl a month because of a wrist injury. Captain Hughes returned to form and ended his cage career in a blaze of glory. Lloyd Little, with 23 1 points scored and his great fighting spirit, ended his college career as the most important single factor of the winning combination. He and Stasavich made the All-Conference selection to give the Bears the distinction of being the only school to place more than one star. Stasavich was the real spark plug of the team and whether at guard or center performed expertly. Payne, freshman center, helped the team considerably and was a big factor in the final victory at Guilford. Bill Leath. flashy forward, was second high scorer with 165 points and showed great promise for the future. Sonny Overcash. reliable junior guard, was elected captain after performing well along side Captain Hughes and Stasavich. The following made their letters: Captain Hughes, Captain-elect Overcash, Little, Leath. Stasavich, Payne, Stetler, Bumgarner, Reynolds, Hendricks and Manager Townsend. Only Hughes and Little will be lost by graduation. Gold basketballs were given the Icttermen and Coach Shores as rewards for winning the coveted title. : _, y Page One Hundred Thirty —- 33 BA5 E BALL 93 Robert F.

It was to be a war of the American people, involving every community and family of the entire Union. The awful hatred and strife of the Civil War had passed away. In North Carolina there was entire patriotic cooperation and this state gave willingly and gen- erously of her material resources and of her sons who fought so bravely and cour- ageously to turn the tide of war into a glorious victory for the Allied Powers. Walter Hines Page was appointed ambassador to England: Josephus Daniels became Secretary of the Navy; and Angus W. McLean offered his services on the AVar Industries Board. North Carolina troops were the first American troops to enter the Little Kingdom, Belgium. The Tar Heel Brigade, making up a part of The Old Hickory Division, was the first to make the assault on the Hindenburg Line and as a result of gallant fighting was the first unit to penetrate the German line of defense. Indirectly North Carolina was re.sponsible for another important feature of the Great War for at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, the Wright brothers had flown the first airplane and thus began the most important means of modern warfare. 0 RHYNE Z7 Book Five SPONSORS SUPERLATIVES KALEIDOSCOPE Miss Nina Yount, Sponsor Student Body and Captain Football Mrs. J.

In the early part of the nineteenth lentury it surpassed all other states in the pro- duction of textile manufactures. Due to the effects of the Civil War, it dropped behind several northern states, but is now rapidly regaining its former position of supremacy in textile manufacturing. The water power of the state is very great, in fact, more than twice enough to manufacture the entire cotton crop of the South. Already the state has more cotton factories than any other in the South and is a large manu- facturer of tobacco. Other factories of all kinds are rapidly increasing in number. Much of this industrial development has been largely due to the construction of num- erous powerful hydro-electric plants in various parts of the state. North Carolina now has more than five thousand miles of railroad in operation and more than seventy-one thousand five hundred and twenty-nine miles of highways. This great network of railroads and modern highways has placed the state in the fore- front of the farming and industrial states of the South. RHYNE = V m ™ •HV rt jn u Jl j £.

It is made today for its value tomorrow, to bring back to mind the happy memories of school days. And with a keen appreciation of this future value, coupled with the experience of more than thirty years, we work closely with, and for, the school that the annual may be a complete, interesting history. It may be next term ... or a few years away in college . . . but when your thoughts turn to the publication of an annual may we have the opportunity of telling you more of the service we can render.
