Top Secret
Some people have had to look
twice when they see the TJC
Chordaires walking down the halls
these days. Why? There is a good
reason. The TJC Chordaires now
have their new wardrobe.
The wardrobe consists of a red
and white striped sport coat, white
shirts, black ties, black shoes, and
black trousers.
Sonje of the comments about
their new sport coats are, “Wow!”
“They’re too loud,” but most of
the boys ask, “Where did you get
them?” How much did they cost?”
and “Where can I get one?”
We are glad you like them, but
the details are “top secret”, say
the Chordaires.

FIRST ANNIVERSARY
One year, ago on January 2, 1957

ing. They were proud of it then
and we are proud of it now. Let
us keep the building new and beau-
tiful for the students who follow
The Executive Committee of the
Temple Junior College Ex-Students
Association met for a luncheon
meeting in the student center No-
vember 18 to make plans for the
reunion in April and discussed the
Association’s gift to the college
campus. Attending the meeting
were Mrs. Virginia Russell, presi-
dent; Jim Bowmer, vice-president;
Mrs. Evelyn Gover, secretary; and
Reginald Evans, treasurer.
Tentative plans for the reunion
were made for Saturday, April 12,
with complete arrangements to be
made at the Executive Committee
meeting to be held in January. The
committee authorized the accept-
ing of price quotations for lighting
the front of the college building
and for the erection of a circular
sign at the campus entrance. These
two projects will represent an ex-
penditure of some $350.

times.

lected from all parts of Bell county.
Some of the costume were made
by Francis Lange. Jean Ann King

Every member of the college

preparing for the final presenta-
tion as was shown by the excellent
performances of both casts.
