The tension grew as the final minutes of the Pi Kappa Alpha sponsored 1987 Miss ASU pageant approached. One lucky girl would be named Miss ASU and go on to com- pete in the Miss Arkansas Pageant. The finalists were announced: fourth runner-up, Shona Joy of Paragould; third runner-up, Laura Stewart of Jonesboro; sec- ond runner-up, Stephanie Stutts of Manila; and first runner-up Lisa Martin of Harrisburg. Then the suspense ended as Angie Boyd of Manila was crowned Miss ASU. Angie is no stranger to the pageant scene. She was 1986 Miss Northeast Arkan- sas and participated in the Miss Arkansas Pageant last summer. She was fourth run- ner-up in the 1984 Miss ASU pageant and was Miss Arkansas Teen USA in 1 983. Angie then placed in the top ten at the Miss Teen USA pageant in Florida. The result of those pageants produced several awards. By winning Miss ASU, Angie added to her list a $300 scholarship and a sil- ver cup. Angie also won the talent competi- tion with a gymnastics routine to a song from the Broadway musical Cars. Contestants of the pageant and their sponsors were as follows: Joni Hampton of Hickory Ridge, sponsored by Greenleaf Flo- rist and Dr. Dean A. Tyrer; Kelly Lynn Rober- son of Helena, sponsored by Alpha Omicron Pi; Laura Lee Stewart of Jonesboro, spon- sored by Zeta Tau Alpha; Mary Beth Cham- bers of Jonesboro, sponsored by Tau Kappa Epsilon; Angela Nanette Boyd of Manila, sponsored by Boyd Turf Farm; Jacquelyn Gail Hosinski of Jonesboro, sponsored by Alpha Gamma Delta; Julie Ann Jones of Bly- theville, sponsored by Sigma Chi; Lisa Renee Martin of Harrisburg, sponsored by Phi Mu; Stephanie Suzanne Stutts of Manila, spon- sored by Chi Omega; Cindy Lu Childress of Jonesboro, sponsored by The Tanning Shed; Jennifer Lynn Wilson of Bono, spon- sored by Lambda Chi Alpha; Stephanie Margo Pierce of Jonesboro, sponsored by Sigma Phi Epsilon; Shona Lynn Joy of Para- gould, sponsored by the Baptist Student Union; and Carol Lee Lovelace of Jones- boro, sponsored by Twin Towers Dorm Council. 26«Miss ASU Joni Hampton amazes the audience with her piano playing ability.
