Fhrb-1 BSU Promotes Social Activities The only religious club on campus, the Baptist Student Union, boasts the largest club membership of any campus organization. Striving for a better understanding of Christian ideals through worthwhile activities and fellowship, BSU counts among its assets its director, divinity student Phil Hughes, a Lubbock native now attending Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Hughes works in cooperation with Miss Sandy Sullivan, who acts as faculty advisor for the organization. In addition to being the largest, BSU is also one of the most active clubs. lncluded in the year's activi- ties were a fall social for enlisting initial members, the Christmas party, and in early February, a ski trip to Santa Fe and Glorietta, New Mexico. Also, the club honored favorite professors with an early-morning breakfast on campus. Later in the year they attended a Missions Conference at the South- western Theological Seminary, as well as a Leader- ship Training Conference in Abilene at Hardin-Sim- mons University. As a contributing campus organization, BSU states as its purpose: to relate Christianity to daily living for the college students benefit. Bubba Fowler, a member of the Avant Garde group recording for Columbia Records, lectured for BSU on a subject with which he is familiar, lay missionary work with the hippie section of south Chicago.

Like everything else at TCJC it is still nebulous, but its potential is high. APO has received a national charter which official- ly establishes the TCJC chapter, and the club has taken its first pledge class. APO has rendered numerous services to the school during this first year. Members have been especially active in campus elec- tions. They wrote the school code, conducted the Howdy King and Queen election, and su- pervised the election in which school colors, the mascot, newspaper, and yearbook titles were selected. The twenty-eight members also hosted the dedication ceremonies and open house activities on campus. APO officers for the year are Bobert Frost, president, John Neil, first vice-president, Dennis Brown, recording secretary, and Chuck Luke, treasurer. Faculty sponsors are Caroll Commons, Sheldon Maple, and Don Richards. I 2' , Robert Frost, APO president, discusses projects for the spring semester.

1 9' ,ibn :ff F54 Groups Perform In Area Events With numbers in their repertoire ranging from Brahms' lf Thou Be Near, all the way to Cannon's Bill Bailey Wont You Please Come Home, the TCJC Choral Department is the embodiment of versatility. Divided into two categories, the Choir and the Singers, students have a choice in the type of music they sing. Classical and con- temporary selections constitute the maior work of the Choir, while the Singers lean more toward the popular vain. Both groups have performed for various conventions and civic groups. Making their debut last November at Morningside Junior High School, the troupe with Director Leonard McCormick went on to perform at the convention of the Southern Association of lunior College Administrations in Dallas. The years events culminated in the Spring Concert held in the theatre.
