SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the early autumn of the year nineteen hundred and thirty-eight a group of eager, yet somewhat be- wildered students eame upon the threshold of a new world. 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.
