Prestige Qualifies Seniors Scholarship, leadership, citi- zenship and service to the school determined the Kiwanis and Optimist Students each month, in addition to those named for the year. Faculty members filled out a form monthly, designating their senior choices, being sure to follow the stated guidelines. Mona Doyhenard, Kiwanis choice, and Mike Mahan, Op- timist, captured September's honors. Mona served in Stu- dent Senate while Mike held the office of Student Senate president. October found Debbie Aga- pito and Mark Swingle as num- ber one. Debbie participated in girls' volleyball. Mark led the school in a great year of foot- ball. Kiwanis Janet O'Connor and Optimist David DeKruger re- presented the month of No- vember. Both displayed all four of the guidelines, unquestion- ably. Janet held an active post in National Honor Society. Young, Varsity cheerleader, held the month of December as Kiwanis girl. Mike McDaniel, Senior Class president and yearbook photographer proved to be a good selection for Optimist boy. Besides holding honors for November, Janer O'Conner was also chosen Kiwanis girl for the year. Holding up the Opti- mist end was Kevin Gobbo. Kevin was a Senior Class sena- tor. The month of January found Michelle Cox as Kiwanis girl and Lance Benton as Optimist boy. Michelle was involved in National Honor Society, Quill and Scroll, as well as being edi- tor of the yearbook. Lance par- ticipated in Science Club, STP and National Honor Society. Following tradition were Sherry Waldschmidt as Kiwanis girl and Darren Laughlin as Op- timist boy. Darren diligently la- bored in Science Club and Na- tional Honor Society for three years. Sherry showed immense enthusiasm for school activities by joining Quill and Scroll, Na- tional Honor Society and as- sisting with the yearbook. Optimist And Kiwanis 23

Sweethearts Exhibit Beauty Male viewpoints on beauty spoke for themselves as the members of Fruita Monument Chapter of Key Club Interna- tional selected their sweet- hearts each month. Each girl displayed distinct beauty char- acteristics, was usually active in school affairs, and maintained respectable grades. Starting off the school year, the young men chose Octo- ber's sweetheart, Shirley Fields, reigning over FJome- coming month. November rolled in with the selection of Catherine Brown. For an Inter- national flavor, the gentlemen selected Monica Ffurtado, an Argentine foreign exchange student, for December. As the new year ap- proached, so came another new face; LuAnn Paulson upheld the standards set by the club as she also captured the title for Sweetheart of the Year. In February, St. Valentine brought beauty, Suzanne Rashleigh, into the limelight. Suzanne returned at the end of January from spending a se- mester in France. March winds blew in Key Club sweetheart Dawn Gsell. Spring returned in April with sophomore Cathy Johnson. At the close of the school year, May righteously chose junior JoAnn Cordova. These recepients attended a morning breakfast with the young men, as Key Club hon- ored each girl during her re- spective month. 1.
