—Lancaster Farming. Saturday, July 3. 1976 52 FFA Princess will do them justice in By JOANNE SPAHR QUARK YVILLE The phones had been ringing at her Quarryville R 2 home for nearly a week, and photographers and in terviewers had been taking up whole chunks of her time since she had received the title of State FFA Princess and Miss Congeniality at FFA State days the week before. Yet, with all this hustle and bustle in her life, Marcia Hess was poised and friendly, with an air of sophistication about her when it was time for our interview. It was obvious she is going to make a good representative for the Future Farmers of America during her year’s reign as princess. The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert S. Hess, she’s an advocate of FFA. “It’s really a great organization. I have so much respect of everybody in it,” says the sleek and stylish young lady with conviction. Her belief in the Marcia Hess, this year’s Pennsylvania FFA Princess, poses before her home in Quarryville. For 12 months she will reign over the state organization of Future Farmers of America and will compete in the national American Royal Queen Contest in Kansas City in November. 4 DAY SPECIALS JULY 7,8, 9 and 10 Jumbo Bounty Towels 52c a roll 32 oz.

Her itinerary is quite full. This is only the third year FFA has had a princess, and they plan to use Marcia to a fuller extent in their public relations work this year. « One of the bigger events on her schedule, and one she is looking forward to, is the National FFA Contest in. Kansas City in November, where she will be escorted by this year’s president; Randy Ranck. Randy and Marcia have been neighbors for years and attended high Marcia'Hess school together, so the national event will carry special meaning for both of them. Some other things she’will do as princess are speaking at banquets and par ticipating in fairs. So now, FFA is going to become a large part of her life. Marcia says it wasn’t always that way in the beginning of high school, but her years at Willow Street Vo Tech were instrumental in changing her attitude. , “It’s a great experience and a good opportunity to learn a trade,” she says speaking of Vo-Tech school. “My second year was really rewarding,” she continues.
