Abstract
Description
Photograph of Lubbock Mayor Rogers presenting a proclamation to members of the Goin' Band on December 9, 1966. The typed caption tucked behind the photograph states "'THAT GOIN' BAND FROM RAIDERLAND' WEEK' -- The city of Lubbock officially recognized what everyone on the Texas Tech campus has been saying for years -- the university band has never been lost a halftime show. To show its appreciation, Lubbock's mayor, W.D. (Dub) Rogers, proclaimed this week (Dec. 11-17) as 'That Goin' Band from Raiderland' Week. Here, six members of the band thank the mayor for the proclamation. They are, left to right, Julie Ryan, Lamesa sophomore; Karon Elkins, Snyder senior; Carroll Laird, Premont junior; Mayor Rogers; Kirk Hays, Amarillo senior; Mae Bell Witcher, Cheyenne, Wyo. sophomore; and Robert Pendleton, Amarillo senior. Dean Killion is director of the Tech Band. (Tech Photo)"
