SILVER BELLS FOR SOUTHERN BELLES ALL DRESSED UP AND SOMEWHERE TO GO To the question What are the advantages or disadvantages of the state lottery? Miss CHS, Grace Potter, responded: If the funds had been specifically designated for education, instead of being allocated by the legislature, the lottery would positively serve education. As it is, we don't know the effects, and it's very hard to answer this question. Personally, I hate to see us come to the point of depending on funds from gambling for something as important as education. b AO, Ci Announcing that Grace had won the beauty contest was a very special moment for me. I was proud of her because of the time and effort she had put forth and the way she handled herself on stage. On December the 6th, 1986, the bells were ringing on the occasion of the Miss CHS 1987 contest. The stage was lovely and even improved as the beauties entered the scene. The con- testants this year consisted of 36 lovely young ladies, who all wanted to achieve the same goal: being crowned as Miss CHS 1987. As one of their yearly activities, the student council began the contest prepara- tions as early as November. The members of the stubent council worked hard to locate judges, deco- rate the auditorium, enlist the contes- tants and prepare entertainment. During the month of November, tap classes and various clubs were asked to select and sponser a girl to repre- sent them in the pageant. As the date of the pageant approached, the stu- dent council enlisted Master of Cere- monies services from Wesley Potter and Jennifer Enfinger. The 36 contes- tants appeared in groups and individ- ually, after which the judges made their decisions, and 12 semi-finalists were chosen. When, after a short in- termission, the 5 finalists were an- nounced, the girls were judged on their responses to questions. Master of Ceremonies, Wesley Potter, was assisted by Jennifer Enfinger, Mis- tress of Ceremonies. Entertainment during the intermissions was provid- ed by the Dixie Style Cloggers and vocal selections by Debra Collins and Donald Rogers. Rachel Toole and Mrs. Thera Harris provided musical accompaniment during the pageant. Once the judges made their final de- cision, it was Wesley's duty to an- nounce Miss CHS 1987. While the 5 finalists were waiting in anxious sus- pense, Wesley presented Miss CHS of 1986, Joli Hall to the audience. Then he proceeded to make the big announcement. The fourth runnerup was Leanne Gilmore, third runnerup was Meda Smith, second runnerup was Heather Roberts, first runnerup was Donna Duce. At this dramatic moment everyone, especially Wes, was excited at the announcement of the winner, Grace Potter, Wesley's very own sister.
