Sebelius, 65, who served the "Big 1st" District In western Kansas for 12 years In the nation's capitol, died Sunday at a Norton hospital following a loigthy bout with cancer.

Sebelius, whose district included some of the nation's most productive farmland, was a recognized expert in farm affairs. He was a member of the House Committee for Interior and Insular Affairs. Sebelius and his wife felt a strong tie to their home of Norton, a town Of about 3,500 people.

He was fond of giving visitors the full tour of the city's business district, nursing home, alcoholic treatment center and his own law office. Sebelius died just five days before his 66th birthday Sept. 10. He was born at Almena, the son of Dr. Carl and Minnie Sebelius.

His father was a dentist. Sebelius was graduated from Fort Hays State College and he received his law degree from George Washington University Law School in Washington, D.C. He served in the U.S. Army in World War II and the Korean War. After the service he returned home to practice law in Norton County, where he became active in civic and political affairs.

In 1962 he was appointed to the Kansas Senate and served for six years. He was elected to the 91st Congress in 1968 and served six terms as congressman for the 1st Congressional District. He retired from Congress in 1981 and returned to Norton to practice law. Although he discovered in late 1979 he had cancer of the prostate gland, Sebelius later said his decision not to seek a seventh term was based on a desire to spend more time with his wife and two sons.

He later announced he had no plans to seek either office. Sebelius once recalled a visit he paid as a law student to Frank Carlson when the former Kansas governor and U.S. senator was representing the 1st District in the House.
