Ten girls were chosen by the senior class as finalists. On the night of September 25, they had to represent themselves and their own class on the home field at Kingston Stadium. Candidates Kim Edwards, Surria lgram, Lisa Kaschmitter, Sherri Kopecky, Chris Landis, Sally quee Matejcek, Sara Sargeant, Julie Schmitz, Julie Schreder, and Tracy Sumner stood before the crowd waiting for Maria Lindsey, last year's queen, to place the crown upon one of their heads. As the moment neared, the ex- citement rose. The girls glanced at all the fans. The audience was quietly waiting for Jefferson's sil- ver anniversary queen to be cho- sen. Maria lifted the crown and gently placed it on 1981's new queen-Julie Schmitz.

On September 11, the stu- dent body gathered to hear the announcement of the 25 queen semi-finalists. The class of '82 dominated the festivities by win- ning the Powder Puff game, which replaced the tradi- tional bonfire. ln addition, seniors were the only class to participate in the final vote for the queen, thus making the queen truly representative of the senior class. The Homecoming game was held on the 25th against the Dubuque Hempstead Mustangs. Unfortu- nately, it rained and the J-Hawks were defeated.
