utting on the Ritz anted: high school females, beautiful, talented, intelligent, and well- rounded students to be ambassadors of good will for New Braunfels. These were part of the requirements set by the Comal County Fair Association, Lambda Psi Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi, and the senior class as candidates were recruited for Fair Queen, Junior Miss, and homecoming queen. Many hours were spent at the Canyon High School commons as 33 junior girls anticipated the big event, the Comal County Fair Queen Contest. An afternoon of personal interviews and tiring rehearsals preceded the public performance. Each candidate expressed their feelings on how the Comal County Fair benefited New Braunfels. On the night of September 18, the curious audience awaited the final announcement. Carolyn Fey was crowned Fair Queen, Tammi Seidel, princess, and Kay Knippa, duchess. In another local contest, girls competed for the title of New Braunfels Junior Miss. Again many hours were spent at the Civic Center practicing talent, getting the steps down for poise and appearance, and perfecting the physical fitness dance to Greased Lightning? Hard work proved to be the key as four of the five winners were from N.B.H.S. Fourth runner-up was Nicole Cieslicki, third runner-up was Lisa Thelander, second runner-up was Suzan Carmichael, first runner-up ffrom Canyonj was Monica Krieg, and New Braunfels Junior Miss was Barbara May. Next, homecoming week brought on the traditional festivities with the usual petitions being signed. The student body voted on the four candidates who were selected by the senior class. Anne Schumann and Jean Marie Sterling were crowned duchesses, Tracy Moore- princess, and Michelle Jaramillo was crowned homecoming queen. Although all participants were not crowned a winner, each girl gained experience, and made new friends to last a lifetime. Smiles and anticipation cross the faces of Michelle Jaramillo and her escort Joe Reyes before Michelle was crowned Homecoming Queen. Fair Queen winners are Tammi Seidel-princess, Carolyn Fey-queen, and Kay Knippa-duchess.

:cognition for their scholastic zhievements. Published reports showed lat students of our high school scored igher averages on the SAT than did the average Texas student or the average merican student. Despite our high :hool's records of excellence, Governor lark White felt that some Texas school istricts were graduating illiterate udents. He assembled a committee, the lue Ribbon Committee on Educationv, ith H. Ross Perot as the chairman to :ad the investigation of the schools. A .ain concern of the group was that ex- acurricular activities were taking too ,uch away from academic time. A bill as proposed that would require U.I.L. participants to be passing four academic courses, instead of three. Mr. Perot in- dividually proposed that LQ extracur- ricular activities take place before or after school hours. This would entail having -:Q athletic, band, drama, and similiar ac- tivities practice and compete outside of the normal school day. That,s the significant news of the day, summed up the announcer. Tune in later when we will update this information and bring you the new headlines concerning the world around you. Bandman makes headlines. The Texas Music Educators' Association selected Dennis Hartman for the All-State Orchestra because of his expertise in playing the French horn. : l ..,, ....,. . . sl-4' T ,ii, 0' fl -aim , T Daily news items have nnpact on the student body. current events-l l
