The story of a year at college is difficult to tell. Each student remembers something a little different from anything that his fellow-students recall. Many things happened to all of us who attended Lenoir Rhyne during the year ending June. 1942. All of our activities, however, centered themselves around our College. In these pages we hope to perpetuate the memories which all of us hold dear. Some of the events of the year have been important, some of little significance. We want to see this year in retrospect as a warm and living period of a memorable interval in our lives. We want this to be college life from the student ' s point of view. For our theme — if theme there is — we have chosen THIS YEAR AT Lenoir Rhyne. We hope that within the covers of this book, we have caught some of the incidents that typified our life as Lenoir Rhyne students. September. 1941 - June. 1942. %fj •; s«.i Mi ' i ' w jS ' rs ' t: ' - III I .Hi i K ■■•■-â– â–  fV«- ' ,. ' 1.- ' 5 â–  :% fl 1. ADMINISTRATION CLASSES ACTIVITIES ATHLETICS FEATURES DEDICATION During our four years at Lenoir Rhyne we have been drawn peculiarly close to one faculty member — one who has himself been here just four years. We have found in Dr. Greenholt a genial companion in study, a fascinating idealist, an enthusiastic scholar, a sincere friend and a tolerant Christian gentleman. In acknowledgment of our gratitude we dedicate the 1942 Hacawa to . . . . Homer Reginald Greenholt. A.B., Ph.D. Associate Professor of History In Memoriam Ellis Todd Garrison August 6, 1920 Dfxhmber 22, 1941 Of cheerful mien and happy disposition, friendly toward everyone and a â– friend of all, dependable and cooperative, Ellis was a faithful member of the Lenoir Rhyne band as a student, continuing in his place as first trumpeter for the three years since he left college to work in Hickory and serving as band president last year. His spirit of neighborliness will long be remembered as an outstanding example of the love of Christ in human hearts. THIS YEAR AT LENOIR RHYNE Snoic brightened the campus . . . and people ' s spirits . . . The shoicer room — social center of the boys ' dorm . . . Students went t o chapel on occasion . . . Library was center of activity (and study ) during the day . . . Sophomores gave freshmen free haircuts. LIFE WENT QN MUCH AS USUAL Happy couples courted on the front of the Ad Building . , . Serious work went on in science labs, both day and night . . . Occasional dances spiced the social life of the campus . . . Inevitable shirt- tail parades came during Freshman Week. PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE ' Pat, have you ever found anybody who could beat you laying brick. ' ' Yes. said Pat. but I never let him do it! ' Be kindly affect ioned one to another with brotherly love: in honour preferring one another: Not slothful in business: fervent in spirit: serving the Lord — —Romans 12:10-11. Dr. p. E.

The door to higher education had been opened and at last we were in college — long awaited and long hoped for. We had nothing to fear in the first milestone at Lenoir Rhyne College because we were guided and advised by a ' ery understanding and sympathetic fac- ulty and led by a very capable president. David Conrad. It was then that we chose our class colors — green and gold, their significance lying in the fact that we were green upon our entrance and were to be ripe or golden as the wheat upon our graduation. This, along with the college motto: The truth shall make you free, became our aim. The second milestone was reached at the end of our sophomore year — a year full of work and fun. Led by Karl Bargcr, our class increased its treasury through the sale of freshmen caps, entertained the new students at an informal party, and was in full swing with campus life, taking part in many organizations — religious, social, and cultural. Now for greater conquests. As juniors u ' e knew that we should be going on beyond the halfway mark toward our aim. We were beginning to ripen. With Ralph Gurley leading us, our class presented Campus Capers, sponsored social affairs, and prospered from the sales made in the junior store. The great climax of the year came with the junior-senior banquet at Hotel Hickory. The Reverend Harry Althouse was main speaker for the banquet and Mr. Luther Boliek. a Lenoir Rhyne alumnus, was toastmaster. Shirley Smith of Winston-Salem played for the dance which was climaxed by the rendition of our college song. Pair Star of Caroline. by the orchestra. Our senior year saw the completion of the new dormitory for girls and the planning of a new library. Lenoir Rhyne was growing and we hoped that we had played a small part in her growth. We turned again to our first president. David Conrad, to lead us over the last mile. Looking back over these four years we realize that mistakes have been made. Some have dropped out of the race: others have joined along the way. We hope that our accomplishments will be lasting and that we have reached the goal we ' ve striven for. We pray now for strength and courage to make all our dreams into deeds and to withstand the storm now facing us. EMOGENE Locke, Historian.

We have attempted to gather all sorts of material in these pages which will recall to many of us the things we did while here. We have tried to be informal in getting a rather intimate pictorial record of our activities. Our aim has been to make this a student ' s book — one that each of you can feel is truly representative. As the time for its publication nears we of the staff are filled with trepidation. Connolly Ga.mble, jr..

I am tolerant. I am serious. I don ' t care. I am humorous. I am satirical. I am well-informed. I am ignorant. I am an idealist. I am cynical. I am critical. I am criticized. I question autho rity. I demand to know the why behind everything. They laugh and say I am a fool. But I think for myself. They scoff and say I will learn. I point to the world they have never learned to govern. They call me inconsistent and I call them inconsistent. We misunderstand each other. We call each other names. I believe my truth and they believe their truth. They try to tell me what to say. I refuse to listen. I am the voice of the student of Lenoir Rhyne. I speak for the minister, the teacher, the engineer, the musician, the soldier, the doctor, the dentist, the housewife — the world — of the future. My ancestry is English. Dutch, Irish, Norwegian, German, Italian. French. Spanish. I have been influenced by Aristotle, by Lippmann, by Shakes- peare, by Sandburg, by Luther, by Fosdick, by Pegler, by Hemingway, by Winchell. I am the Lenoir Rhynean, Volume XXXI. John M. Mangum.

Guard FOOTBALL 1941 The Bears inaugurated the 1941 season with an invasion of the University of North CaroHna, and although Lenoir Rhyne lost by five touchdowns, the Bruins gave the Tar Heels such a fright that they didn ' t recover all season. With three conference victories and three defeats. Lenoir Rhyne had a fairly successful gridiron season. Downed by the Elon Christians, the Bears redeemed themselves with their second consecutive slaughter of the powerful Appalachian Mountaineers. One of the surprises of the season came in the victory of the indomitable Newberry Indians, who won over the highly-favored Bruins 13 toO. The Catawba Indians, perennial rivals of the Bears, continued their year ' s triumphant sweep of the North State Conference, passing their way to a two- touchdown win in the Thanksgiving classic.

BASKETBALL 1941-1942 From the win-loss angle the 1941 hoop season cannot be termed a success, but the Bears have learned to appreciate a well-fought game fully as much as a victory during the last few unfortunate seasons. In conference play they chalked up six wins against eight losses: three victories with two losses went down on the record in non-conference games. The Bruins improved steadily throughout their twenty-game schedule, winning three out of four of their last games of the season. One of the highlights was the Elon tussle which ended 44-43 in favor of the Christians. In the post- season tournament at High Point College Lenoir Rhyne was paired with the leading High Point Panthers, who eliminated the Bears early in the tournament. Hugh Mashburn, tall powerful center, established a nine-year scoring record for the locals, ringing up 223 points during the season.

The fortunes which fell to the lot of the Shoremen in their opening double-header with the New- berry Indians — two defeats — seemed to stick with them throughout the season. Some of the games were dose — and some were not. The Bruins suffered from a weak pitching department and liitting slumps were prevalent, but at times they showed great potentialities. The locals trimmed Guilford and Ap- palachian twice each and won once over Atlantic Christian and High Point.

Captained by Senior LesHe Conrad, the Bruins met a short, stiff schedule and came out on the long end with only three matches lost compared with seven victories. Losses were marked up in the Clemson and in both Guilford encounters. The squad was led again this year by the brilliant Jay Shepherd, number one player from Greensboro, who chalked up seven wins against two losses. Ralph Gurley, taking five of his matches and dropping one. had the best individual average for the season.

We bid farewell and Godspeed to our coaching staff — Pat Shores. Clarence Stasavich and Dave Hodgson: we wish the best of luck to those players, past and present, entering the service and we feel sorry only for the opposition wherever they are. Homecomings, Thanksgiving Day with Catawba, basketball tournaments. Easter Monday baseball, and tennis with Guil- ford — these events must remain as mem- ories until battles return to the playing fields under the rules of good sportsman- ship and fair play. Meanwhile, intramurals will take a new place in our program and heroes will arise from the unheralded ranks of amateurs. But we can rejoice and be glad — our tennis team has at last licked the Quakers! And the 1942 Bear baseball team shows jgBHH signs of taking the North State Conference crown! . : i â– ?- ' •■ - v ;-- • ' ' i .rV ' ' ' $ ,.1 ' .. 1 ' .-f V ' ..r;l ' f ' l) ' iy- v-- ' ' i«« ' MAUNhv Hall -A •.
