THE FEMALE LEADERS OF TOMORROW Five outstanding young ladies were chosen to participate in Girls State — a program which develops leadership and character. First, as many girls as were in- terested, filled out applications for Girls State, they were sent to the American Le- gion. In turn, the American Legion voted, and five were chosen to give speeches to them on why they would like to go to Girls State; When the Legion voted, they chose Lorretta Burden and Tracy Ball; Carol Balistreri, Janice Crowe, and Kim Petty were chosen as alternates. Later they had an orientation program and then took a bus to Florida State Uni- versity. During this week the girls met Governor Rubin Askew and a few of his cabinet. They also ran for “mock” governmental offices and met in a ‘‘session”’ in the House of Representatives and the Senate buildings. 1. Tracy Ball tries hard to keep up her grades. 2. Carol Balistreri has much on her mind. 3. Lorretta Burden finishes up her English composition. 4. Tracy Ball, Third runner-up; Carol Balistreri, alter- nate; Kim Petty, alternate; and Lorretta Burden, First runner-up. Oh, when a Girl Stater says, hello You'll say, now there's a girl I'd like to know. She's got the spirit, pep, and loyalty — And she is proud to be a girls state nominee.. And when she graduates she'll never forget All the fun she’s had and friends she met- And deep within her heart she'll always be A Girls Stater you'll see.
