Along those lines ...
The earliest use of the term UTC as such (and TUC in the French) that
I have found is in the Jan/Feb 1964 Bulletin Horaire from the BIH.
This was the first issue done by Guinot after Anna Stoyko gave it up.

Does anyone know of a use of the term UTC/TUC which predates that?

Steve,

I don't have one earlier than your 1964.

Essen, 1958, no mention of UTC (way too early):

Essen, 1968, mentions UTC, and proposes what would become leap seconds:
