THE PAJACA 1943 PFEIFFER JUNIOR COLLEGE Misenheimer. N. C. Henry Pfeiffer Chapel A HISTORY We at Pfeiffer feel that our school has one of the brightest futures of any school of its type in the country. In order that everyone interested might have a better knowledge of the amazing progress which is our history, the staff has decided to include a short historical sketch in this issue. In 1899, Miss Emily Pruden, one of the early leaders of education in North Carolina, established a small school in Lenoir. North Carolina. It was named in honor of Ebenezer Mitchell, a veteran of the Union Army in the War between the States. Mrs. Mitchell of Dayton, Ohio, his mother, had contributed money to the founding of the school. Fire destroyed the school in 1903, and the authorities appealed to the Woman’s Home Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church for help. The society took over the operation and management of the school and moved it to its present location at Misenhcimer in 1907. Two buildings were erected, Mitchell Home for girls and Cline Hall for boys. Again in 1914, the school was the victim of another fire. 1'his time the main building was destroyed and Cline Hall had to be used as a girls’ dormitory. The boys were housed in the village. Also in 1914, the high school was accredited by the State Department. In 1928, two years of college were authorized and the lower grades were gradually abandoned. The school then concentrated on the last two years of high school and the first two years of college. In 1933, W. S. Sharp, a man who has meant much in the development of Pfeiffer, came to the school to become its president. Under his guidance, the Junior College was given full recognition by the State Department of Public Instruction. Through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Pfeiffer of New York City, Rowe Hall. Merner Hall. Goode Hall, the new Cline Hall, and the President’s OF PFEIFFER Home were erected in 1 93 5. An endowment fund was also established, in August of 19 35, the name of the school was changed to Pfeiffer Junior College. Other gifts from the Pfeiffers in 1936 and 1937 made possible the remodeling of the Administration Building, the erection of Jane Freeman Hall, and enlarge- ment of the endowment. The high school was discontinued in 1938. Since the unification of Methodism. Pfeiffer Junior College is under the general auspices of the Woman’s Division of Christian Service and Board of Missions and Church Extension of the Methodist Church. The college is incor- porated under the laws of North Carolina and is directly controlled and managed by a Board of Trustees. The Pfeiffers contributed to the school again in 1941. when Washington Hall, the Arts and Industries Building, and the Henry Pfeiffer Chapel were begun. The endowment was also substantially increased. The period 1942-1943 has seen numerous improvements in the school. Extensive landscaping has added much beauty to the campus. Educational opportunities have been extended through the inclusion of an Arts and Indus- tries department in the curriculum, improvement in equipment for other depart- ments (notably Music), and announcement that Pfeiffer will offer summer school work for the first time in its history. The most noteworthy addition to the campus is the Henry Pfeiffer Chapel, one of the most beautiful and best equipped ecclesiastical structures in the state. Our acceptance in 1942 into the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools insures acceptance of Pfeiffer throughout the South, and our recent approval by the University Senate of the Methodist Church assures recog- nition throughout the nation. Yes. if Pfeiffer’s future is as bright as it looms, it is destined for still greater days. FOREWORD In publishing this issue of the PA- JaCa. the staff has tried to recall for you an eventful and history-making year. As you go back with us into the realm of memories we think you will agree that it has indeed been an im- portant year at Pfeiffer as well as throughout the world. It’s not our purpose to make excuses; in fact, it’s not good journalism, but we hope you'll realize that our 1943 PaJaCa was published in a world at war. If it’s not quite what you ex- pected, we are sorry; if you like it— well, thanks! In designing our cover we have tried to emphasize the unity that exists be- tween the ideals of our school and the ideals of our nation by using school colors and the Statue of Liberty. Bob Kennedy. Editor. James Chrismon. Business Manager. DEDICATION To Mrs. Henry Pfeiffer, whose philanthropy makes our school possible, we, the class of 1943. dedi- cate this annual.

From time to time we lost some of our number, but we kept that traditional Sophomore spirit. Mr. Moser and Miss Ricketts were our able sponsors for the year. Under their leadership we tried to maintain all the Pfeiffer Sophomore traditions, though hindered somewhat by the war. Our two years at Pfeiffer have developed our many talents and uncovered latent talents. We ll always remember our last year at Pfeiffer as a year difficult at times but well spent.

THE CLASS I Do you remember the day in Septem- ber, 1941, when you first came to Pfeiffer how bewildered you were . . how homesick some were . . the lordly, yet friendly manner of the Sophomores. . . social activities of the first week: gym parties, President's reception, and picnic and!!—those entrance exams? Finally we got down to the more seri- ous business of getting a college educa- tion meeting our first classes . . getting acquainted with professors and their methods hard, grinding study . care- ful, methodical lab work research in the library, and all the other things that go with it. Well, that is. we did for a week any- way. T hen came that dread of all Fresh- men rat week. Remember?. . .Walt Draughon solemnly announcing rules and regulations adding new ones daily . . shining shoes eating left-handed Charles Ehninger’s dress and makeup . . threats of dire consequences of disobedience. It was fun but a relief when finished. And don’t forget that class meeting in which we elected our officers and sponsors. Harold Edwards was chosen president, Alton Wright vice-president, and Clo Vaughan, secretary-treasurer. We picked as our sponsors Mr. Lefko and Miss Chap- man. Gradually college life became a hum- drum, monotonous routine with occasional bright spots such as the Autumn Dance . . Christmas vacation week-ends at home bumming trips (boys anyway!!) . . . Washington Ball basketball games . . that smashing victory over Oak Ridge . . May Day, and then, don't forget those exams they certainly broke the monotony. As the year wore on we all became bet- ter acquainted and it was time to begin thinking of next year. Officers were elected for various organizations and activities: Doris Jean Garmon, editor of the t orch; Ellis Love, business manager of the Torch; Fern Templeton, president of the Speakers OF 1943 and Actors Guild; Bob Kennedy, editor of the PaJaCa and president of the Y. M. C. A.; Inez Wilson, president of the Y. W. C. A.; James Chrismon, business man- ager of the PaJaCA; Hilton Seals, presi- dent of the student body; and Virginia Cohen, president of the W. A. A. Then came the last few weeks of school with their busy days “Y” retreats balmy weather spring fever strolling on the lawn after supper track our first conference championship Alumni Dance with that swell orchestra final exams graduation and then, that day we all left. After fourteen short weeks we were back it was ’42- 43 our year, but things had changed. It wasn’t the same old school with the war and a new bunch of silly Freshmen gee, they were dumb, but we finally educated them and we were deter- mined not to let the war discourage us. But, try as we might, the war situation did sort of get us down students leav- ing uncertainty no basketball sche- dule difficulties of traveling favorite professors gone. We had our moments though all was not discouraging. Remember this? offi- cers: Alton Wright, president A1 Cook, vice-president . .

Everything was not just as we wanted it our last year, but it was an outstand- ing year, nevertheless, and one we will always remember. FRESHMEN The largest Freshman class to enter Pfeiffer, to date, was that of 42- 43. Not only was it a large class but it was a versatile one as well. Many of its members soon became prominent in campus activities. Some of them were elated to know that they were so in the majority on the campus, but they soon began to appreciate the advice that only a Sophomore could give them. What the future held for this class was uncertain and some were afraid, but they faced it as all Pfeiffer men and women do—with confidence.

Only two of last year’s varsity men, Williams and Huntley, returned, but with such freshman material as Tate, Winecoff, White, and Dockery, the outlook was bright for a very successful junior college campaign. Pfeiffer’s reputation as a junior college power had been much enhanced last year by surprise victories over Belmont Abbey and Oak Ridge, and we were all looking for- ward to another season. None of our old junior col- lege rivals of the N. C. J. C. C. could be scheduled, however, because of transportation difficulties. High-scorer, and perhaps our best all-round per- former, was Tate with 114 points in nine games. Pfeiffer’s diminutive forward, Winecoff, was always in there pitching, racking up 78 points in eight games. Williams, star guard, put many a sensational long shot in the basket. In spite of the fact that many of our best per- formers were forced to leave during the season. Coach Lefko always managed to put a team on the floor. Only three of our nine starts ended in victories, but we were always proud of our boys. Managers: MANESS AND STROUD Harris. Burrage, Talbert, Kerr. Page 7 hirty-three 1942 N. C. J. C. C. TRACK CHAMPIONS Pfeiffer is indeed proud of its 1942 track team. This group brought the school its first conference championship since the inauguration of inter- collegiate athletics here. The championship was won in a meet with Belmont Abbey, the perennial winner, at the Davidson College track. Outstanding individuals were Edwards, the high scorer, and Poplin. Left to right, first rote: Timmons, Fowler, Harmon, Lowder. Cook, Cohen. Second raze: Kirk, Morton, Williams. INTRAMURAL CAPTAINS An important part of the physical activities program at Pfeiffer is the intramurals. Each year the student body, both boys and girls, is divided into teams. Every team is headed by a captain who manages the team. Page Thirty-four Congratulations to the Sophomores Sincere Best Wishes For Your Success in Life T C. D.
