Revue 1946 - Linton Public Library

The second annual Linton Invitational Relays established a traditional
election of a queen and her court made up of the lassies of the student body.
The pupils of each third period class of the student body voted on April 21,
individually and secretly for the girl whom they wanted as their queen.
Morning of the next day the votes were counted by members of the student
council.
Rita Halbach, had the honor of having bestowed upon her the title of
queen. Rita was elected vice-president of her class at the beginning of the
year. Rita has been a part of all elections held for a queen and her court
in years previous. She had as her attendants: Rose Scecina, Barbara Gil­
mour, Gloria Fisk, Patty Clark, Doris Frederick, Rita Rogers, Norma Mc­
Phail and Margie O'Hern.
Dawned the night of the big event and royal robes were discarded for rain­
coats and umbrellas. The honored queen and her court stood out among the
spectators by having at their disposal the honored parking place at the
track. Parked on the outer edge of the rack, and dressed in assorted colored
suits, they presented trophies and ribbons to all winning participants in
the track meet.
Reading left to right in the above picture are Rose Scecina; Rita Halbach,
the "queen;" Barbara Gilmour, Gloria Fisk, Patty Clark, Doris Frederick,
and Rita Rodgers. (Members of court not in photo: Margie O'Hern and
