TFX kg PFBLIC LIBR ARY Traditions We open the 1969 YELLOW JACKET with an introduction to its theme, Traditions For this yearbook to be successful, it is our task to compose :1 true history of every significant event that occurred on our campus from the fall of 1968 through the spring of 1969, We have hhosen .15 our theme Traditions, for we feel that through this medium we will be successful in relating memories whith will be tremsurcd as long as our yearbook endures. A tradition may mean anything from giving a new senior ring a turn for good luck to studying all night to aitch up on bark work. Every Club, organization, 1nd class has its own set of obscn'nntes. Whether it is marching in a Pied Piper Parade before the Homecoming: bonfire, ordering caps and gowns, or voting: For school officers, each person obsen'es his own set of rites. Tradition is our theme. It is our tic with the past, and it is the heritllge that WC pass on to future classes. It is with this purpose that we open to you YELLOW JACKET 1969.

How can one describe L1 library? It can represent magic for those who naturally like to read, and it sometimes is a place of awak- ening unsuspected talent for more reluumnt rend- BIS. Newly expanded hours have given students an early morning And a late afternoon to do research or read for pleasure. Stocked with 17,684 books, :1 wide assortment of reference books, magazines and newspapers to appeal to every interest, the library is the springboard to scholarship. TWO LIBRARIANS ASSIST teachers and students. Miss Hilda Brazzell, left, is a graduate of Polytechnic Institute With a BA. degree: Mrs. Marcelle than, right, is head librarian She is a BA. graduate of Sam Houston State University, and she obtained a M.S. degxee in library scieme from Texas Womnds University.

Hamlet Note cards are neatly stacked. the last of the 500 words is typed, and the theme is ready to be tumed in. This opera- tion represents only one of the countless activities employed by the 17 English teachers to teilch students to think logically and express themselves adequately. Four levels of learning are included in the English Depart- ment. This is one of the few schools offering advanced place- ment in English IV, Many disses are offered in Level I, A or Honors Courses; Level II, regular classes; and Levels HI and IV, remedial work. Journalism gives special opportunity for those who like to write. Students may also contribute to a literary magazine, Iiblzride. Further enrichment is added through three levels of speech And two levels in drama. MRS. MARGARET BARRYeEnglish III and IV; B.A'. University of Texas, MiAt Lamar Tech; Senior Cabinet, FTA MRS.

To teach new lessons dealing with living in today's democracy, instructors used team teaching techniques fre- quently. The overhead projector was often in use as teach- ers took new materials from mrrent newspapers and maga- zines.

Outstanding Congressional Leadership - The Student Body Congress has worked to bring governing power to the students Their leadership has bmught mmy changes to the outrof-date articles of the Constitution including that of qualifications for all-school officers. Qualifications for citizens of the month made it possible for the Board of Cover- nors to make restrictions for the award. Visitor passes were aCCepted by Our SBC. These will allow TJ stu- dents to bring a non-TJ student as a date to a foot- ball game if a pass is received from the director of activities, The food basket drive and all-school chest drive were boosted enormously by active committee work. They led such things as campus beautification, patriotism And elections. One of the main projects was trying to obtain senior exemptions of finals, Our SEC has spent some time discussing a teenage night- club to be added to our community. 2 EUNERESS K mm SPONSORiMR.
