And the Valley of surroundings To our eyes, a story tells. Of the victories that await us, And the light that yet is bright, Of the knowledge that We've gathered, Beneath the Gold and XVhite. YVl1ite, it is the sign of fairness, And the Gold, the sign of hope. YVith these qualities Within us, XVith all problems we can cope. Xve will fight for Alina Mater, Both with courage and with might. For we're loyal to old Packer, And we love the Gold and VVhite. -lHAHlE Lovn, '43 -ALICE Gmswonn, '43 0--0--0--0--0--0--ov 0 0 0 0 o omni- The Nucleus 1943-Page F0l'ly-eight +0--0--0--o-bl-4--ov-0--0 0--0--0--of-0--1-so--I--0--0
