PAGEANT ENTRANT
Two years ago this August
Cherrie Harris of Loop had an
exciting time in El Paso. This week
she is in San Antonio and is a
contestant in the Miss Texas U.S.A.
Pageant which is a state
preliminary for the 1983 Miss
U.S.A. She is having a busy time
this week with the 100 contestants
from all over Texas. She left
Lubbock Friday night--Saturday
night the ride in the river boat was
planned. The contestants have
been modeling, and are being
filmed, the films to be used to
promote the City of San Antonio. A
Fashion Show, a “Magic Time,” a
circus and Western Night were
included in the week’s activities.
One night is also Family Night, and
Eldon and Lois Harris, Shelley and
Nikki left the middle of this week
for the colorful city of San Antonio.
Cherrie took her boots and
western apparel, but no hat-she
said her hair would be in “fancy”
braids. Scouts from modeling
agencies, film companies and
others are contacting the girls all
week. Most of the activity is at the
Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown
San Antonio. Preliminaries will be
this Saturday night, then the 15
“top” contestants will be chosen
^Monday night, Aug. 23. This show
will be broadcast at 8 p.m. on ABC-
-Channel 28, Lubbock. Contestants
will compete in swimsuit, formal
wear and personal interviews by
the judges.
Cherrie’s sponsors this year are
in Lubbock. Two years ago she was
sponsored by Seminole State
National Bank and Seagraves First
State Bank. Cherrie was Miss
Gaines County in 1978 and
competed in the Miss Texas
pageant in Fort Worth in 1979. She
holds other titles, 1978 Miss Cotton,
Miss Bicentennial from the
Seagraves Loop-Area, Panhandle
West Texas Ideal Miss, and was
fourth runner-up for Texas
National Teenager. A graduate and
valedictorian at Loop High School,
Cherrie has attended Texas as a
pre-law major. In El Paso two
years ago she was selected by a
GRASLAN

GETS
THE
YOU GET THE GRASS
For decades, the rangeland of West Texas has been covered with brush trouble-
makers like sand shinnery. Battling these brush problems has been all uphill for ranchers.
Until now.
Now, there’s a totally new approach to controlling brush. It’s Graslan? From
Elanco. Graslan is a pelleted, aerially-applied brush herbicide. And one application gives
years of control.
Graslan. It’s the new foundation of a range management program that controls
sand shinnery and other West Texas troublemakers, allowing your rangeland to live up
to its full potential.
