Morelock F©w men in any profession believe in people more than Dr, Morelock believes in them. His manner with the students is one of friendly interest combined with an unselfish willingness to help them in every way he can. He is perhaps the country’s most eminent authority on the Big Bend of Texas and his inter¬ est in the area undoubtedly comes from his untiring devotion to the progress of education and appreciation of Western life. Although he has not been with us long, Dean T.H. Etheridge is well known on the campus. He is always busy, but never too busy to help a student with his problems. With ready sympathy and the wisdom of experience,he advises the youth of Sul Ross in making their dreams become realities. Miss Alice Cowan in her role of guidance and supervision of Sul Ross girls, has made a place for herself in their hearts that will remain always. Mr. C.A. Gilley, Dean of Men and Professor of Mathematics is im¬ portant on the Sul Ross Campus. He will be remem.bered for the incred¬ ible combination of a mathemati¬ cian ' s mind and a poet ' s heart.

The time and effort given to this publication have been a real pleasure and we are indeed happy to make this contribution. It has been our sincere desire to catch the spirit of the college during this eventful year. We have attempted to record the names and faces of our friends-of all who have worked, studied, and played with us. We deeply appreciate the willing cooperation and support given us by the student body, for from support and cooperation is built better and strong¬ er institutions for freedom. The Brand Staff.

Ralph’s ambition is to be associated with some news¬ paper and we are convinced his aim is the right one since reading his regular sports write-ups in the Skyline. If you don’t know Ralph, get acquaint¬ ed-your time will have been well spent. Barbara Beard Barbara Beard, is active in local church acti¬ vities, president of Zeta Tau Zeta,and a mem¬ ber of Alpha Chi.Barbara still finds time to be friendly with all her fellow-students. Brains coupled with a magnetic personality, make her a person worth knowing. Alta Bell Bilbo Just Bilbo”, whose ambi¬ tion is to be a good com¬ mercial teacher in a good school with good pay, (well for a while, at least). Being treasurer of Alpha Chi and Sachems keeps her up-to-the-min¬ ute on her bookkeeping knowledge. Her cheery smile helps students in many ways. All in all, Bilbo is a girl who would be welcome on any campus. Jean Engle Louise Hamilton Raymond Holstein While busily humming Anchors Away , Jean works harder than the proverbial beaver at the job of being Editor and chief proponent of The Brand. She is also president of Sachems, The Victory Belles and secre¬ tary of Alpha Chi. Louise Hamilton, member of Theta Gamma and Sachems, has a sincere smile for everyone. She is interest¬ ed in music and teaching school is her pride and joy. If she gets along only half as well as a teacher as she does as a student, she will be tops . Raymond Holstein -- is an Agriculture major, who hails from Campbellton. He is President of the Junior Class and Lambda Kappa Delta. His hobbies are Palomino horses and good-looking girls. While awaiting his call into the service, Raymond is on the job for a college educa¬ tion . Lea Matteson Lea Matteson is a well known personality on the campus because of her sin¬ cere friendliness. She has been a nominee for Most Popular Girl for the last two years. Lea is a member of Sachems and In¬ ternational Relations Club. It is because of her will¬ ingness to work with others that we will not forget her soon. Her home is in Eldorado. Ellie McKinney Ellie McKinney comes to us from Eldorado. She is a girl who is thoroughly de¬ pendable, kind,and clever. Sachems, Alpha Chi and Phi Rho Sigma have had the honor of welcoming Ellie as a member, and Sul Ross is proud to say, She is one of our students. Eugene Medlin Otis Montgomery Fay O’Conner As he looks forward eagerly to assuming the duties of a private in the United States Army, Eugene takes time out to be President of Theta Gamma, Business Manager of the Skyline, reporter for the Press Club and member of Alpha Chi. Always expect him to do and say the unusual. As Dr. Sperry’s right-hand man. President of the Senior Class, and the Student Coun¬ cil, Otis is kept pretty busy working for the general good of Sul Ross. Call on Otis has literally become a campus by-word. Otis is a Pre-Med student, but Uncle Sam is watching him too. A nominee for school beauty, and a model for many Big Bend Publicity shots, Fay is a popular addition to the Phi Rho Sigma House. Her spare time is spent in selling tickets and smiles to th movie-goers at the local theatre. Bobbie Dee Oliver Bobbie Dee, or Bob is the most likely to succeed in our opinion. Reasons? Highest ranking freshman in 1940, Alpha Chi Vice- President, Phi Rho Sigma President, right-hand girl in the Registrar ' s office. Here ' s power to an attractive, intelligent, All-round girll Mae Cross Robinson Being the Secretary of the Spanish Club and Schems and a member of the Alpha Chi is enough to keep anyone busy—but Mae has the added duties of help¬ ing with the business man¬ agement of the college and keeping up the morale of one Lieutenant Bob Robin¬ son. Anna Tennant is one of the talented in our midst. She painted one of the mur¬ als for College depicting life on the campus. She completed her work at the end of the first semester and is now teaching in Fort Stockton. We miss her presence and many contri¬ butions to school life. Grace Thomas—perfect stu¬ dent. If you don ' t believe it ask her teachers and classmates.But--that isn ' t all—she is assistant in the Book Store, President of Alpha Chi, m.ember of Sachems and Gamma Delta Kappa. Grace ' s second election to Who ' s Who proves that Sul Ross will not forget her soon.

We shall win or we shall die For those principles on which our coun¬ try was founded Are inherent in all of us, and no nef¬ arious Parasitical tyrant shall destroy that for which we would die. We are fighting for something real, Not only because we feel That we must save those last fragments of civilization From the horror of obliteration. We do not want to kill nor be killed. But it is the will of God that ful¬ fill The prayers of those who gave their all So that we, too, might not have to fall Under the bane of the Nazi gall. We shall feed the flame of peace With our hearts and souls. So that our children ' s children may never know The agonizing despair Of loneliness and fear. Lt. A. 0.
