Miss Iowa of 1966 Pays Surprise Visit to West After deciding how to budget their spare time, eager West High students joined the rush for club membership during the first few weeks of school. A typical early morning scene was the intermin- ably long line of chattering, impatient students wait- ing to purchase supplies at the bookstore. Planned to stimulate student interest in Junior Achievement, the annual J. A. aud was presented September 13, with Robin Krumbholz speaking on the topic, Why Would Anyone Want to Join J. A.? Her answer was that Junior Achievement lets its participants meet other people, gain knowledge of the business world, and support free enterprise. That afternoon Marie Mushro, Miss Iowa of 1966, treated West students to a surprise assembly in which she described her recent trip to Atlantic City, New Jersey, and thanked West students for backing her in the pageant. In her presentation, Miss Mushro advised girls interested in the pageant to concentrate on improving your talent, but also study hard and have a desire to do something outstanding for the state of Iowa and for your country. The Senior Class held its first meeting September 15, and nominated candidates for senior class office and for Falcon Day's Queen.
