CLASS OF 1940 OFFICERS MelVIN Gantt President Cecil Carpenter ' Vice-President Addie Locke Secretary Carroll Miller Treasurer Helen Byerly Historian CLASS HISTORY It was September 19 6, when, wc. the Class of ' 40, first assembled on the campus of Lenoir Rhyne College, prepared for a four-year flight through the realm of Education. With Vance Daniel at the con- trols our plane took off, and though we had many forebodings as we winged into space, our pilot guided us safely over the initial lap of our journey. After a short vacation we returned again to our plane, this time with Emory Carpenter directing our course. By this time we were veteran travelers, and we settled into the routine of flight with far more ease and confidence. When the plane settled to earth late in May our journey was half over, and we again dispersed for a short breathing spell. As Autumn approached wc returned to our meet- ing place, there to place Tom Foard in command of our Ship of Learning. All too quickly this phase of our flight was completed, and we glided to a smooth three-point landing, only the last lap of our well- charted course remaining ahead of us. Faith, Hope, and Courage, respectively, had been ■our watchwords before, but for this, the final hop, it was Confidence. With Melvin Gantt as our pilot we are even now circling Graduation Field, and, though the thrill of accomplishment flows like heady wine through our veins, a pang of nostalgia occasion- ally grips our hearts. For four unforgettable years we are grateful to Lenoir Rhyne College. Helen Byerly. Hi tonan. ■s nnn nBBHB
