A member of the NHS and a Cadet Major in the AFJROTC, Mur¬ dock has the honor of a nomination to an appointment to the Air Force Academy. Romell Hedrick possesses an explosive combination of talent, good looks, and personality. A songbird of merit, she has sung professionally for several years and is a member of Dudley’s choir.
