Her Life And Her Love.
Devoted Library
Founder Loses
Cancer Bout
Mrs. Sibyl Brown was laid to
rest Monday at Crestlawn Memorial Park. Her death, from
cancer last Thursday, closed the
books on 22 years of devotion
and dedication to the coljege she
loved. Building the AnnieGabriel
Library from a bookshelf to a
noted library was an ardous task
which she undertook and successfully completed.
Mrs. Brown, born Jan. 18,
1918, in Muleshoe, Texas, received her B.A. from W. Texas
State University. She obtained
her masters degree in library
science from USC.
Funeral services were held
Monday at Magnolia Avenue Baptist Church. Dean Dewey Jones.
Dr. George Musacchio, Dr. James
Staples, and her pastor, Larry
Nixon all participated in the service. From the reading of her
favorite verses to the talk given
by Nixon, the service was deeply
spiritual and moving which was
a tribute to Mrs. Brown's deep
devotion to God.
Singing for the service was
the Magnolia Avenue Baptist
Church Choir. Mrs. Helen Walker
also sang two of Mrs. Brown's
favorites, "God Leads Us Along"
and "Sunrise Tomorrow". Serving as pallbearers were Gary
Collins, Dr. Ken Futch, J.L. Hardin, Pat McGrew, S.C. Smith,and
Dr. LaVern Young.
She is survived by her husband Olie, and daughter, Mrs.
Richard Melchior, and son, Alton
Theoran.
Mrs. Brown's grave is behind
a   stature  of Christ kneeling in
could not have been selected for
one whose faith was so intense.
Run Off To Be Held       Class Elections
For ASB President
Begin Next Week
The Associated Student Body
officer election was held last
Friday. As a result, therewillbe
a run off for the office of president. The two candidates, Lonnie
Halley who got 157 votes will be
running against Al Johnson who
got 101 vjtes in the first run off
for the presidency.
Each candidate needed 170
votes in order to get the office.

the top two candidates have to
run off.
The run off is scheduled for
this Wednesday, Thursday and
Friday. The polls will close tomorrow at 4 p.m. for the ASB
president election.
Chris Hess won the office of
vice president by a vote of 185.
"I'm excited about it," she cried
out in joy.
Unopposed Teresa Holden got
the position of secretary by 281
votes. "I'm glad about it. I wish
to get involved in the ASB in the
coming year, and I want to work
with the president, vice-president and social chairman." Miss
Holden had been the secretary
in ASB in her high school and
junior high, so she has the experience of taking down the
minutes during meetings.
The social chairman is Kathi
Connolly who got 179 votes. She
exclaimed, "I feel good, I'm happy
about it. I'll try to get the college
more involved in the ASB. I wish
to see everybody help". The social chairman deals with the social events of the ASB. Some of
