Royalty comes back A special Queen of Courts ceremony was held January 31, in the C.W. Oliver Gymnasium. Past queens came to be recognized and reunited. They began in 1963 with Carol Smith and went all the way through to 1985 with Diana Shelton. Each queen that attended was presented a corsage by the student council Vice-President Tim Hegarty. The Queen of Courts ceremony was held at the half of the boys' varsity game. Paula Smith was pronounced the new Queen of Courts. Bryan Adkins was the head escort. Paula received a crown, a sash, eight roses, and a kiss from Bryan and was then escorted to her seat. Other candidates and their escorts were Mary Etherton and Mike Wiedmer; Jackie Herpich and Mike Goss; Jenny Herpich and Brian Klaus; and Jennifer Scholz and Robert Sigrist. Each candi- date received a single red rose and a kiss from her escort. The crown and gift bearers were Kyle McCon- naughey, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kevin McCon- naughey; Jaylon Ashburn, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Kelley; Amy Keller, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Keller; and Jamie Wykert, daughter of Mr. Jim Wykert and Sharon Sandy. The music for the dance after the game was pro- vided by JTN, a live band that had played to a sold-out audience at the Uptown theater in Kan- sas City the previous month.
