Shelling Bee at Beahm Jr. High a old-fashioned shoot- out occurred at Beahm Jr. High in Mount Joy on Friday afternoon. when twenty-three students par- ticipated in the annual district spelling bee. The sixth, seventh and eighth graders competing repre- sented five grade schools besides ‘the junior high. They qualified by being finalists in preliminary spelling bees held in March in their respective build- ings. After seven complete rounds the field of twenty - three was reduced to five. In the eighth round Ernie Lapp of Kraybill’s Menno- nite School was eliminated when he misspelled the word ‘‘elegance’’. In the following round ‘‘familiari- ty’’ felled Scott Sipling, the only seventh grader left in the field. And then there were three. The three eighth grade girls remaining huddled closely together on the stage, each one cautiously approaching the micro- phone when it was her tufn to spell. Each girl remained accurate as the firing of words continued into the thirteenth round. Donna Watto met her nemesis on the word ‘‘indefensible’’. And then there were two. Lori Harvey and Grace Snyder both had trouble in the fourteenth round when neither could spell ‘‘jabot’’ (a pleated frill of cloth or lace attached down the center front of a blouse or dress) so the bee contin- ued. : Finally in the seven- teenth round Grace missed the word ‘‘lozenge’’, and Lori then spelled the same word right. She needed to Pvt. Flowers spell only one more word correctly to be declared the champion. Miss Catherine Zeller, the pronouncer for the bee and former head of the English Dept. at Donegal, uttered the word ‘““maintenance’’. Lori, after a moment's pause, an- nounced ‘‘M-A-I-N-T-E- N-A-N-C-E’’. And then there was one! After a long, thunderous ovation from the attentive Beahm student body, fac- ulty and guests, Lori was declared champion of the 1979 Donegal District Spell- ing Bee. Lori is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Harvey, R.D.1, Mount Joy. Runner-up, Grace Snyder, who chal- lenged the champion ad- mirably, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Snyder of Snyder Road, R.D.2, Mount Joy. Both of these girls will participate in the county spelling bee sponsored by the Lancaster Intell, which will be held on Friday evening, April 27th, at the Manheim Township Middle School. In case one of them can’t attend, Donna Watto will participate. Donna is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Watto, R.D.1, Marietta.
