Miss Fletcher C omradeship born out of fair competition A metamorphosis of external and yet oftentimes profound nature took place during the Miss Fletcher con- test. The extrinsic qualities of the contest were the pre- sentation of talent, poise, and grooming achieved by each contestant. However the deeper, less tangible qualities that developed lie in the experience of sharing and help- ing one another. It was a kind of comradeship born out of fair competition. The participants, each representing an organization of the school, spent weeks planning and rehearsing for the climatic moment. Times of extreme frustration and em- barrassment were interspersed with levity and CX- citeinent. In the final moments, however, when the crown was placed and the new Miss Fletcher began her reign, each girl had gained deeper insight into her own strengths and abilities.
