CAME’ES EJNC ... AWESOME! On Wednesday, November 11, 1982, people began arriving at the BHS auditorium for the first annual Campus King Pageant. This was to be a landmark in the history of the institution. One could tell by the vibrations in the air that this was not going to be an ordinary evening. The build-up to this night began in the middle of October, with the Student Council providing the cafe- teria with an array of male legs, chests, and arms. Each week for three weeks, six sets of muscular legs, six firm chests and six bulging arms were each attached to contain- I ers. The Student Council then ex- plained that students should deposit their extra lunch money in the container that was most appealing to them. All six senior male physiques were carefully screened and photo- graphed and the identities kept secret until the night of the competition. The proceeds from this were contri- buted to the Leukemia Foundation. A few minutes past 7:00 p.m. the house lights dimmed and the pageant was underway. The host for this event was none other than the sophisticated Daryl Rankin. He started the evening off by explaining what was to take place. First, there would be a Bathing Suit Competition. Each contestant was to wear the suit of his choice, and strut his stuff” on stage. Following this would be the Talent” portion of the program. Each competitor was asked to display any talent that most suited him. Finally, there would be an impromptu speech by each entry, with a pre-determined time limit to reply to the question. Based on these three categories, each performer would be judged. All contestants were scored on a basis of one through 15 points for each category based on originality and perform- ance. The panel of judges were: Senior, Steve Lee; Senior, Helen Lyons; Band director, Mr. Baggs; and English teacher, Mrs. Reardon. The stage curtains parted and appearing on stage was the hand- some Kent Stock and his lovely escort, Karen Barber. Following them was the charismatic Kevin Duffy and the beautiful Kelly Keenan. Next to appear was the awesome Bryan Franco accompanied by a gracious newcomer to our school, Cathy Callaham. Following this couple came the macho Scott Mathews and his elegant escort, Dawn Mabey. Next to grace the s.tage was the charming Don Seaman and the ravishing Cindy Davies. Concluding this bountiful abundance of interest- ing people was the stunning Howie Alexander and his partner, the sultry Lisa Giustino. The curtains then closed. While the contestants were chang- ing for the first part of the pageant, entertainment was provided by Keri- anne Kelleher and Lisa Scognamig- lio. Lisa accompanied on the piano while Kerianne sang “Looking Through the Eyes of Love”. This was a first-class act! No stone was left unturned during this pageant! Then the moment everyone was waiting for: the Bathing Suit Compe- tition! Entering first was Mr. All Everything” (Kent Stock) wearing blue trunks with rainbow stripes on the torso, striking various positions to show off his defined muscular contours. Appearing next was Mr. Sociable” (Kevin Duffy) showing off his burly anatomy in a bright red swim suit. Next on stage was “Mr. Wellabalsam“ (Bryan Franco) in subtle beige shorts, enhancing his glowing skin tone and outstanding body structure. The “Don Juan” of BHS, “Mr. Suave” (Scott Mathews), entered in light blue trunks, accentu- ating his rippling bicepts and tri- cepts. Mr. Universe” (Don Seaman) then came forward in bright yellow shorts to charm the audience with a definition of his own. Finally, “Mr. Conceited” (Howie Alexander) wore a black bikini suit. He expressed no modesty when he took the stage. When you have it, flaunt it, right Howie? After that excitement, the audience needed calming. They were enter- tained with commentary by Daryl Rankin and a song played by BHS’s own Hank Williams, Mark Tracy, with “Your Cheatin’ Heart”.

Continuing with the night’s flurry of events was the Talent Extrava- ganza. The audience was first enlightened with a dramatic reading by Kent Stock. Fortunately, the house bouncer, Jerry Augnst, spared Kent from more embarrassment and carried him off stage. “Mr. All Everything” lost some of his “All” on that one. Kevin Duffy enthralled everyone with his rendition of “The Gambler” with the help of Mark Tracy playing guitar. Bryan Franco next captured everyone’s attention danc- ing a ballet to “The Flight of the Bumblebee”. Brian, is this your calling in life? Soon the crowd was overwhelmed by “Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers”, known to us as Scott Mathews and Lisa Giustino. Their elegance and refinement would have definitely won them fame on “Dance Fever”. Next, Don Seaman rocked BHS with “You Really Got Me” and “Start Me Up” with Kevin Duffy doing vocals. Keep on rockin’, Don! Closing this segment of the program was a guest appearance by “Shirley Temple”, Howie Alexander. No one else could have portrayed “Miss Temple” better. Ending the evening’s competition, Mr. Rankin began the questioning. Kent told everyone what he planned to do if he became Campus King. “Nice things”, right, Kent? Then Kevin Duffy told us what the colors of the flag meant to him. (Very Strange!) Oh, girls — Bryan Franco told everyone what he likes in his women ... Who can fit that description? — He’s still waiting! Then Daryl was able to stump his contestant, Scott, with a trick ques- tion. Being the charmer that he is, Don Seaman had no trouble with his question. Finally, Howie was back again to entertain all with his views on the flag. We’re glad to live in America, too! As the curtains closed, so did the evening’s competition. To absorb the last few minutes until the winner was announced, the contestants sang the Annual Campus King Song”. Mark Tracy was called back on stage by the audience to do his Elvis impression. Then came the results: Second runner-up — “Mr. Suave”, Scott Mathews. First runner-up — “Mr. Wellabal- sam”, Bryan Franco. Campus King — “Mr. Conceited”, Howie Alexander! Howie received a bouquet of roses and paraded around as the reigning Campus King. Congratulations!
