On October 13, following the high school football homecoming game, the Junior mothers sponsored a dance above the police station. The profits were used in part to pay for expenses of building the Junior float, and more than $100 was left over to be used for the Prom. The Juniors sponsored a record-dedication booth at the PTA Carnival on November 4. They also raffled off a record album. They made about $40, which went to the PTA to be used for the Prom. The Juniors had a concession stand in the high school cafeteria on Band Day, April 6. They sold sandwiches, coffee, and soft drinks, with the pro-cedds going to help pay for the Bannuet. Hard work has been done by the committee of Juniors to choose a irdque theme for the Banouet and Prom and to decide on what kind of decorations to choose. They also made a careful study of the bands available, before choosing one for the Prom. All the Juniors have been working to make this year the best ever. The Pawnee High School Beta Club chose Jeanne Yadon, a Junior, as its candidate for Vice-President at the Oklahoma State Beat Club Convention at the Skirvin Hotel in Oklahoma City on April 5 and 6. All the Pawnee Betas organized in an intensive campaign to elect Jeanne. Floyd Williams and Jill Hamburger, as Student Council members, worked on the annual staff. They worked on the Juniors section, the teachers, and other school personnel. Jeanne Yadon, the other Junior staff member, was in charge of the advertising section. 27

Juliene Nuttle Alta Ohse Bill Peters Janet Poteet Janet Poteet Is Chosen as 1968 Bruin Queen; Mike Priroeaux Paul Primeaux Alice Reed Jim Riemer Charlotte Richards Roger Robbins James Roberson David Scott The Junior Class, although a strong team, still encourages individuality. The class members show individuality to the extent that each one almost had his own ’’individual ring. On September 26 they finally settled on the style they wanted. The new rings are 10 carat gold, set with square red stones with a bear insignia on top. There is also a place for one initial on both sides of the stone. The rings were received at the jewelry store on January 18, and all the Juniors rushed down to buy them. It was reported that several Juniors had to give their rings away before they even got a chance to wear them. The Juniors came in second in the magazine contest, with $311.74. Donna Nicewander, Junior Football queen candidate, became one of the high school football queen attendants. She rode in the Homecoming Parade and was escorted by David Alley at the homecoming game. Donna Nicewander was also one of the basketball queen attendants elected by the student body, and took part in the Basketball Homecoming on January 26. The Juniors were very happy when Janet Poteet was selected as Bruin Oueen on January 11. She was chosen by a pair of impartial judges from Oklahoma State University. As Oueen she has a full-page picture in the 1968 Bruin and is first in the royalty section. She was crowned and kissed by Student Council President, Gary Colclazier. Elaine Fenley, one of her six attendants, is also a Junior. A number of other Junior girls participated in the contest, constituting a majority of the girls who entered. 26
