“The TJC contest was started
five years ago because there was
no contest on the junior college
level to prepare students for the
state meet. It has proved popular
because it is a one-day meet, and
the coaches can listen to partici-
pants from other schools,” added
ton, Belton.
Students named to Who’s Who
will receive materials from Who’s
Who which must be filled out and
returned to who’s Who immedi-
ately, Dr. Paul said. The biogra-
phical information the student
sends to Who’s Who will be used
with the student’s name in the
Who’s Who book published
annually, he added. Students
named to the honor should
immediately make appointments
to have their pictures taken for
the 1974-75 Templa', Mrs. Sallie
Aldridge, advisor to campus
publications, said.
TJC Leopards and Leopardettes
continue season, mounting up a

Thirty-seven Temple Junior
College sophomores have been
named to Who’s Who Among
Students in American Junior
Colleges.
Twenty-one of the students
chosen for the honor are from
Temple, Dr. Walt Paul, Dean of
Student Services, said. Of the
other 16 students, tow are from
Belton and the remainder from
area towns.
To be eligible for Who’s Who,
students must be sophomore
students in good academic stand-
ing who have shown themselves
to be campus leaders. Students
rently mired in the cellar of the
conference with a 1-6 record. If
Lee fails to make it into the top
four by seasons end, then they
must pass their option of hosting
the tourney to the team next in
line.
Coach Scott said that the next
team to have the option is none
other than TJC. Thus the fourth
place is very important to Coach
Scott and his team. If TJC fails to
finish in the top four, then they
must give the opportunity to the
next team in line. That team is
San Jacinto, currently in 1st place
in conference with a clean 7-0
record.
The eventual winner of this
South Zone tournament will then
play the Region 14 North Zone
