DEDICHTIUH MR. WILLIS PHELPS AN ODE TO OUR ADVISOR Through the year you have guided us, The class of '47 From the time we entered as hopeless seniors, 'Till we leave forever more. You arranged our courses and schedules, Helped with our dances and plays, Signed excuses by the hundreds, Guided us in thousands of ways. So now we, the Class, in tribute Dedicate this book to you, For your unfailing assistance In helping to see us through. We can never really thank you For the kindness you have shown, For the guiding hand you gave us In making V. C. S. our home. 3

To none of these our hearts are bound, for none of these we fight We love to cheer the dear old Red and White. Come sing to fair Van Etteng Come raise your voices high. Sing loud and laud her praisesg Her rivals bold defy. Dearest Old Alma Mater, thine would we ever be. Come sing a song to Van Etten, oh here's to Thee. 2
