SENIOR CLASS HISTORY At the same time that we, the Class of 1941, are looking back with satis- faction over four years of growth, spiritually, mentally, physically and socially, the College is glancing back over its fifty years of existence. As Freshmen we might well have been compared to the early years of the College, a little uncertain but deter- mined. Early in the fall of 193 7 we elected Wilfred Hahn as our Class President. Under his leadership we found our place in the curriculum of the College. It was discovered that our class was abundantly endowed with abilities. The members took an active part in athletics, forensics, dramatics and the choir. We were giving Lenoir Rhyne all we had in order to get as much as possible out of education. By 1938, with a year of College training behind us, we were more sure of ourselves and the mark we wanted to leave at Lenoir Rhyne. Bob Cald- well succeeded Wilfred Hahn as Presi- dent and wc were off to a good start. Plenty of Freshman caps were sold and our treasury was replenished. As a result the Freshmen were royally enter- tained at a party on George Washing- ton ' s birthday. And so the hatchet was buried — the traditional rivalry between the Freshman and Sophomore classes was at an end. During the 19 39-1940 school session Curtis Morehead was our Presi- dent. The Junior Store was in very capable hands and the proceeds were the largest ever made. Our money and efforts were turned toward the Junior- Senior Banquet and Dance in the spring. It was a big climax to a more than prosperous year. Lawyer David Swift was the toastmaster and Judge Wilson Warlick was the speaker. Music was furnished by Lewis Clayton and his Orchestra. If one hadn ' t known by the invitation that this afi air was to be held at the Legion Hut in New- ton, one would have thought it was in New York ' s brightest night spot. According to both classes it was a ' big success ' . At last, we are Seniors, wiser and older whether we realize it or not. Con- fidence, hope, endeavor, cooperation and a zest for living belong to us. Every side of our personality has been built up. The mere fact that Lenoir Rhyne is a Christian institution goes a long way toward saying that spiritu- ally we have not been neglected. Through participation in a varied physical education program our bodies have grown tall and strong. From class work and participation in extra- curricula affairs our minds are more alert and broad. Social contacts have been numerous. Page Twenty-eight
