                       TRIBUTE TO SYLVIA STOVALL

                                 ______


                          HON. EDOLPHUS TOWNS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, March 7, 1995
  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, there is a very special woman in Brooklyn 
named Sylvia Stovall, who is a district administrator in district 13. 
Sylvia is also a consistent advocate on behalf of children. Her concern 
for the emotional and academic welfare of students is reflected in the 
mentoring she has done with young men and women, many of whom have 
graduated from college and experienced successful careers.
  Sylvia attended North Carolina Central University, and graduated 
respectively from Brooklyn and Bank Street College. She is currently 
pursuing a doctoral degree.
  Ms. Stovall is a member of the board of directors of the Cypress 
Hills Local Development Corp. located in Brooklyn, and she was recently 
honored as one of the unsung heroes and heroines of our community by 
the Harriet Tubman club at the First A.M.E. Zion Church in Brooklyn. It 
is my pleasure to highlight her contributions to Brooklyn.
