"Adventure”’ is the word for Junior Miss. This is the way the program —a national scholarship competition for high school senior girls — is most frequently described by former participants at every level. The 1978-74 W'alkerton Area Junior Miss program will be held at the John Glenn High School Auditorium, on November 16 and 18. and girls who have taken part in the past join forces in urging everyone to attend this year’s competition. The program begins each evening at 7:30. Elizabeth Dim, Walkerton Area Junior Miss, now a student at Ball State University, said, "The opportunities for scholarships, the chance to meet new friends, to share in the fun. excitement and learning are all important parts of the Junior Miss experience. I wouldn’t have missed it. and I hope every girl who can — this year and in the future — takes part.” The local Junior Miss activity is part of a nationwide scholarship program to encourage excellence in all young people by recognizing the achievements of high school senior girls. "Since its beginning in 1958. the Junior Miss program has earned the respect and support of religious. education and civic leaders throughout the nation," Larry Set nor, pageant chairman said. Judging at all levels is based on scholastic achievements, peforming talents, physical well being, perception, and abilities in human relations. More than $1 million in college scholarships, bonds and other awards are presented to Junior Miss contestants at local, state and national competitions each year. The winner of the Walkerton Area Junior Miss program will participate in the state competition for the chance to take part in thr

America’s Junior Miss finals in Mobile. Alabana. At the beginning in 1958, 18 states, with 50 girls- participating, took part.
