Plana for the secmd annual
Cleveland County Junior Mias
Pageant were announced today by
Jerry Emmert, President of the
Cleveland County Junior Miss
Foundation.
This year’s pageant will be held on
Friday and Saturday nights, Oc
tober 19 and 20,10TB, at the Malcolm
Brown Auditorium. "It was
necessairy to expand the pageant to
two nights because of the tremen
dous support given to the program
by rising high school seniors
throughout the county," Emmert
stated.
"Each high school In the county
was visited during May and the local
program was explsdned to each of
them. Since that visit, we have
received 2T applications for this
year's pageant," Emmert said.
"The deadline tor entry has been set
for July 1, 1070, and any potential
contestant that has not returned her
application la urged to do so before
the July 1 deadline.”
Emmert stated that any ap
plications received after the July 1
deadline would not be allowed.
The aim of Junior Miss on the
national, state, and local levels Is
primarily to provide scholarships to
deserving high school seniors to
assist them In their pursuit of a
college education. In addition, the
Junior Miss experience is a memory
that no contestant will soon forget.
On the local level, the program
provides an t^portunlty for senior
girls from throughout the county to
get to know each other.
Judging In Junior Miss consists of
five categories: scholastic
achievement, physical fitness,
creative and performing arts
(talent), poise and appearance and a
judges Interview. The program la
different from many pageants In
that there Is no bathing suit com
petition.
"Last year S800 In scholarships
WM guaranteed by the local Junior
Miss Committee", Emmert said.
"No one on the committee profits
from the pageant, and no one
receives a salary, ttaerefMO, all
profits are returned to the con
testants in the form of scholar
ships", Enunert said. "This year we
are guaranteeing 11,450 in
scholarships and we certainly h<^
we can increase that.”
The pageant Is (q>en to all young
ladles residing In Cleveland County
who will be a high echoed senior in
the next school year. Any Interested
girls who may have questloas or
wish to receive apidlcatlon forms
