The greatest gifts sometimes come in small packages. Such is the case with Miss Phyllis Penton, our college mascot. Phyllis Penton, a Tennessee Temple graduate, came to Hyles-Anderson College in January of 1975, and now serves as a living example of the fact that we have no right to complain. Thursday, January 17, the Hyles-Ander- son College cheerleaders honored Miss Phy]- lis Penton by presenting her with a uniform and a title that will always be hers, that of “mascot.” Yes, Miss Phyllis may only stand thirty-four inches high, but in the hearts of $ PHYLLIS P Ener mae eet TPS SRR ie epee ORES Sa BEES SS RRR ASS CERNE RUN RNID oon vet BS aS a aR te acc Rr ENTON| every member of the college “family” here, she’s a giant. Our thoughts and prayers were with her on January 17, 1980, for not only did we hon- or her as mascot, but many of us said good- bye to her as she left the college awaiting critical surgery. It all could be summed up with a quote from the doctor who was to perform surgery on little Miss Phyllis: “Phyllis, I don’t want to lose you. I need you too much.” Who doesn’t need a Phyllis Pen- ton, a tower of strength even in her weakest moments? Student Life — 223
