A Rainbow Of Dreams Record tickets sales were an early indicator of the success of the Miss Panorama Pageant. The addition of the Little Miss Panorama Contest for girls aged four through second grade increased the amount of money made to over $1,000. The theme Rainbow of Dreams seemed appropriate because most people could only dream of how much hard work went into the pag- eant. Sets were built, outfits were purchased, and turns were prac- ticed for hours, before the public saw the polished production. The little girls stole the night with their witty answers and their show- stopping strolls down the runway. Judges Evelyn Barnes, John Smith, Alta Snell, and Lee Brown had a tough choice to make; but the win- ners were finally chosen. Wendy Hatton and Lynn Woodfin were first and second runners-up, re- spectively; and Jewell Whitney was selected to reign as 1981 Miss Pan- orama. The winners of the Little Miss Panorama Pageant were Mitzi Babb, Little Miss Panorama; Teresa Foggie, first runner-up; Becky Blackwell, second runner-up. After it was all over, they went home to dream of the day when they could compete for the title of Miss Pan- orama. Lynn Woodfin passes in review after she was cho- sen as second runner-up. Miss Congeniality was voted on by the thirty-eight contestants as being the most helpful and consider- ate girl in the pageant. Terri Abernathy was select- ed as Miss Congeniality. Wendy Hatton was selected as first runner-up Judges Alta Snell and Lee Brown gave the contes- tants a final look before selecting the ten finalists.

Chad Blackwell told Santa what he wanted at the Home Economic Christmas party for kin- dergarten students. A bit of Halloween make-up was added to the pep rally by Robbie Gaines. The Indian's gift of shoes went unnoticed as everyone sat down to feast on the Butterball'' Pa had shot. Trick Or Treat, Turkey, And Tinsel The students at Chapman really knew how to celebrate. Holidays were al- ways very special events here. Halloween brought out an unusual number of goblins and ghouls who were ready to party, because Hallow- een was on a Friday. Teachers and stu- dents both donned their favorite cos- tumes for the eve of All Saints Day. At the ball game that night even the band was replaced with a group from the pages of a horror story. Thanksgiving was also a time of cele- bration. Student Council reenacted the first Thanksgiving according to the Hillbillies of the Ozark Moun- tains. The highlight of the play was when the Butterball, portrayed by Lori Smith, was chased around the gym and finally shot for the Thanks- giving feast. Christmas was once again the biggest holiday at Chapman. Mrs. Rogers homeroom won the decorated door contest with their rendetion of Santa's face. Student Council was in the spotlight again as they present the Christmas play. Some skits were religious and others were outrageously funny. But all of them were enjoyed by the stu- dent body. The climax of the show was Santa's entrance. He had his elves and reindeer give out gifts of candy and then he listened to the wishes of a few of better behaved members of Chapman High School.
