Spring bursts forth at High Point College as sun returns after weeks of chill. Students enjoy warm sunshine on campus while two boys explore a pond bank signaling renewal. A later cool spell renews coats, but the mood remains hopeful and bright. Staff photos by Art Richardson.
Mrs. Tennie Highfill Fox, longtime educator and beloved hometown figure, left a $15,000 loan fund at High Point College to assist worthy and needy students. Born Minerva Centennial, she mentored generations in Siler City, Summerfield, Deep River, Pleasant Garden, Oak Ridge, and High Point, where she taught when two schools existed. Known as Miss Tennie, she walked to school daily, warmed students’ lunches, and championed teacher pay and retirement, using extensive Raleigh trips to push reforms. She died at 84, leaving a lasting educational legacy and a life rich with teaching, humor, and care for children.
A humorous column lists pleasures of March and the approach of spring, noting muddiness and robins, plus joys of having a teenage daughter and the antics of haircuts. It ends with a brief item about the Wings Over Jordan Choir concert at St Stephens A M E Zion Church on Price Street on March 19, 1964.
