Cl4—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 26,1980 Pa. Apple Queen (Continued from Page Cl 2) orchard would certainly land her a job somewhere in the fruit industry. “I used to get paid 25 cents a tree to clean up the brush from under them. I picked up drops until my back ached. And I helped with grading apples and cherries on Saturdays and after school,” she said. Kris said she loves the area where she grew up and is afraid that sometimes she takes her lifestyle for granted. “If I want an apple, I just walk across the yard and pick one off a tree. And, I hike around a lot through the orchards. “Sometimes I take a book along and climb to the top of a tree to read. From the top of the hill, I can look out all around me.” The Apple Queen said she reads for an escape. She added she tried to read the book, War and Peace, but it was too hard. She prefers romantic novels, like Gone With the Wind, by Margaret Mitchell. Like many other teenagers, Kris also enjoys dating. And her room, she said, is like a jungle filled with plants.

She likes to run short distances, like the 100 yard race and the 220 yard. But, she explained, she didn’t go out for track because of the cost of driving to school. “I probably would have been a cheerleader if I hadn’t lived so far from school,” Kris mused, “but I wouldn’t trade places with some one m town. I feel close to the outdoors—l’m a country girl at heart. When I’m upset, I wander through the orchards and talk with God. It’s kept my sanity on more than one occassion.” Kns credits her ease in talking with people and groups to her experience working as a waitress where she always had to act happy and talk to people. She said her crown gives her an unfair advantage now when she talks to new people because they see the crown and get a favorable im pression immediately. “I know they will like me and the product I represent.” “Sometimes the crown and the queen idea get old, and my face gets tired of smiling,” Kris sighed, “but it’s still neat, and I’m getting to know people and places I would never have met or travelled to without being the Pa. Apple Queen.” YANMAR DIESEL TRACTORS UNIVERSITY PARK - People knowledgeable about the sheep and the lamb in dustry will exchange their ideas with sheep, lamb and wool producers from Penn sylvania and surrounding states at four state locations during the coming week, says Clair Engle, Penn State extension animal scientist.
