Junior Council girls . . . Stand tall, look ahead T- One of the oldest junior honoraries recognizing out- standing junior women of the Texas Tech campus is Junior Council. Constantly seeking ways to serve Tech and the Lubbock community, this year ' s Junior Council sponsored a Junior Techsan Day in which orphans from Lubbock Children ' s Home and the State School were escorted to a Red Raider football game by various Tech couples. Another project of Junior Council was an all-school shoe shine in which Junior Council mem- bers shined the shoes of cowboys, professors, males and females. This day was filled with many laughs and good times, but also required hard work and effort. A red blazer with the distinctive Junior Council red and black insignia indicated a Tech woman who has received the highest honor which can be conferred upon a Junior woman. Junior Council chooses for mem- bership each year 25 outstanding sophomore women who have excelled in scholarship, leadership, and de- pendability. A future project is assistance in making tape recordings to be used by blind students at Tech. Junior Council is always ready to serve as hostesses for Texas Tech.
