DEDICATED TD . . . At an assembly period in the fall of 1942 a speaker related a story which concluded that one Yale man was the equal of three Princeton men or nine Harvard men. We of the Senior Class will go further — “Doc Wilson, a Yale man, is in our estimation the equal of any man, regardless of his Alma Mater. “Doc” entered these portals as a freshman, with us in 1939, and since that time we have grown to find our way here at Rhody and become part of the life of the college, Dr. Wilson was always there to give us a helping hand, when we were confronted with any obstacle, academic or otherwise. Our Social Committees have gone to him for help, our class officers have all availed themselves of his ever-ready advice, our representatives in any activity have all been encouraged by his personality, each of us, as a member of one of his classes, has laughed at his jokes, been caught unsuspecting by his keen wit and knowledge, felt the sting of his all-inclusive tests, and respected his words of wisdom. For these reasons, and for many incidents too numerous to set down here — the Class of 1943 wishes to show in some way its appreciation to the “Doc”. We, therefore, dedicated this, our yearbook, to Dr. Lee C. Wilson, Class Adviser and FRIEND !
