TYME MAN OF THE YEAR Tyme Magazine ' s Man of the Year for 1969-70 is Mr. Wallace E. Carets, chairman of the jour- nalism department at Texas Tech since 1956. Carets, nationally known as an innovator in the field of jour- nalism, is the man responsible for the magazine format which has been used by the La Ventana for the past twelve years. Tech will lose Carets in the fall. He will move to Long Is- land, N. Y., where he will be professor of journalism at Long Island University. Carets received his bachelor of science in 1938 and his mas- ter of science in 1947. Both de- grees were from the University of Idaho. The year after he received his master ' s degree, Carets founded the department of journalism at Idaho State University, where he remained until 1956. His memberships in journal- ism societies are as vast and var- ied as his work experience. He holds membership in the American Society of Journalism School Administrators, Associa- tion for Education in Journalism, American Association of Univer- sity Professors, Alpha Delta Sig- ma, Phi Mu Alpha and Phi Delta Theta. He is one of eight elected members of the American Coun- cil on Education for Journalism, a national accrediting agency. After coming to Tech, Carets founded the West Texas Profes- sional Chapter of Sigma Delta Chi and the West Texas High School Press Association. He is listed in the Who ' s Who in America, Who ' s Who in the South and Southwest, Who ' s Who in the West, and the direc- tory of American Scholars. Bill Dean, director of Stu- In Carets takes time out from his busy schedule to chat with one of his former students. dent Publications at Tech, was in his first year of undergraduate work when Carets took over the journalism department at Tech. He says, Carets has built a sol- id department. Today the Tech journalism department is one of the fastest growing in the coim- try. We are one of only three state colleges in Texas with an accredited journalism depart- ment. k i u U Toi r« la Idi Gil Id Gn la 111 Mt! Sit Iti I

It was a year marked by change, dissention and unrest. Yet it was also a year of increased peace, loving and understanding. It was a year of living. For Texas Tech it was also a momentous .year. The Red Raiders reached unprecedented heights in numerous areas. Tyme magazine has tried to give you, the reader, a«careful look at at least part of the action at Tech during the past year. This issue of Tyme includes a special feature on the Catalyst, Tech ' s infant underground newspaper, in which the writer has tried to give some of the results of the ban on the Catalyst, as well as a look at some of the staff members. Also in this issue of Tyme there is a look at some of the major honors that have been won during the year by Tech individuals and organizations. Texas Tech ' s chapter of Angel Flight, for instance, was judged the outstanding Angel Flight chapter in the nation, from a total of 139 chapters competing for the title. Corpsdettes won marching honors in San Antonio for the second year in a row. Phi Mu Alpha Sinf onia was selected as the best chapter in its province, and Tech ' s only competitive riflewoman, Marcy Wagner, won high point honors at an invitational meet at New Mexico Military Institute. Finally, our cover story, revealing the Man of the Year, Mr. Wallace E. Carets, is an especially meaningful one, not only for Tyme and the entire La Ventana staff, but for the whole student body, for it was Mr. Carets who first came up with the idea of the magazine format, used by the La Ventana for the past 12 years. In a sense, it is he who made th is yearbook what it is today. These are only a few of the things that have helped to make the 1969-70 school year a memorable one and have helped to furnish Tyme with the mate- rial to keep it alive for you. I hope you enjoy reading Tyme as much as we have enjoyed compiling it for you.
