Dissatlsfactlon with previous methods of choosing a homecoming queen produced a new one and honored Laurabeth Pierce In that capacity for 1977. A nominating election was held in which each stu- dent was allowed to nominate four senior girls. They were Tamala Allred, Mindy Merwln, Donna Sue Hale and Laurabeth Pierce. Subsequent votlng established Laurabeth as 1977 homecoming queen. This method allowed the queen to represent the en- tire student body and would eventually give an equal opportunity to every girl. In the afternoon parade, nominees rode a float built by seniors. All four girls, escorted by their fathers, moved to the center of the field in a half-time cere- mony where Laurabeth was crowned by Natalie Mitch- ell and presented a dozen red roses. Natalie, 1976 queen, was escorted by Wayne Atchison. Cllmaxing festlvites, Stanton topped New Home, 21- 6, and students and exes moved on to a dance at the Legion Hall. The student council chose to allow the Chamber of Commerce to host the dance in their place. The local chamber had sponsored a series of post-game dances raising money to purchase the old T8.P depot. It was to be moved to another location to house the Chamber of Commerce office. 1 F' l , V H -. V ,' -s T y , L mala Allred lead chants at bonflre J.
