John F. Phillips Professor of Malheniatics SIXCE the publication of last year ' s Moundbuilder a strong pillar has fallen in Southwestern College. After twenty-three years of most faithful and efficient service to his Alma Mater, Vice-President John FrThilli[ slipped away from earthly labors on Monday of Commence- ment week, and the funeral services were held on the afternoon of ( ommencement Day. The facult y, the students, friends and alumni from far and near, and citizens filled the gymnasium, and later formed a double line for three blocks on Warren Street while the funeral cortege passed. The services were simple, as he would have had them, and tremendously impressive because of his character and work, and because of the respect and love which the college community bore him. Professor Phillips, as he was usually called, made a large contribution to the College through his work in the classroom. He was a patient, thorough, and popular teacher. .An even larger contribution was made through his student contacts as an administrative official serving in the various capacities of Registrar, Dean, and Vice-President. Students always found in him a sympa- thetic and wise counsellor, and yet. in the life of the institution, his greatest contribution was his work in organizing and managing its business offices. In the state, V ' ice-President Phillips had a large and wholesome influence in inter-collegiate relations and policies. He was the honored and much appreciated President of the Kansas Inter-Collegiate Conference for eleven years. He has passed on, but his works do follow; his influence for good bears fruit in the lives of the multitude of former students; Southwestern College is and will continue to be a strongerand finer college because he gave the service of his life to it.
