Many weeks of hard work and preparation went into making the 1978 Miss Pinson Vallev Pageant, sponsored by the PTA, d great success. The spotlight crew, the backstage crew, and the sound crew contributed their time to help make the pageant complete. Each girl that participated selected an evening gown, sportwear outfit, interview clothes, and the various costumes needed for their talent. November 17th was the date of the preliminaries. All forty-nine girls modeled evening gowns, sportswear, per- formed their talents, and held a private interview with the three ludges. Mrs. lean Bynum, Mr. Calvin Lewter, and Mrs. Verna McPherson were this year ' s judges. Mr. Larry Worley did an outstanding job as Master of Ceremonies, and Mike Chatham and Mike O ' Toole did an excellent job as escorts. Saturday evening, November 18th, all the girls opened the pageant with a choreography number to the song just the Way You Are. The top ten was announced, and each participant performed before the anxious audience. pj JTSF ' p}
