What could tall, attractive 21-year-old brunette college senior Francine E. Huss and slender, striking 17-year-old blonde high school senior Suzannah Nolt possibly have in common? Well, for starters, they both love to eat, both can dance up a storm, both are from Mount Joy, both are the youngest of several children, both have done some modeling, both like to jog. And, currently and most importantly to each, both are candidates for the title of Miss Lancaster County. The 28th annual Miss Lancaster County Scholar- ship Pageant, known nation- ally as one of the most well- known and well-organized preliminaries to the presti- gious Miss America Pageant, will take place on Saturday, September 29, at 8:00 PM in the Ephrata High School auditorium. And both Francine and Suzy are off and running— literally—in preparation for the big night. It’s a lot of work, they agree with vigorous nods, and the training and practice have become daily occurrences that start with such basics as a good diet, plenty of rest, attention to hair, complexion, clothes— and practice, practice, practice. Francine is a senior at Adelphi University on Long Island, and sometimes both the time and the place for practicing is hard to find. ‘I try to practice every day,” this engaging young woman says, ‘‘especially the more difficult steps in my rou- tine.” For her talent presentation in the pageant, Francine will do a jazz dance to ‘‘The Music and the Mirror’’ from the Broadway show ‘‘Chorus Line.’’ She’s dancing in high heeled shoes for the first time, and that’s taken some getting used to. ‘At school I have to change clothes and go to find an empty room or studio somewhere. It's hard,” she smiles, ‘but I'm really enjoying it."’ Practice time for Suzan- nah Nolt has been hard to find, too. Blonde, blue-eyed Suzy is the female half of the fourth-ranked junior figure skating pair team in the Eastern U.S., and most of her moments are spent practicing on ice with her brother Jeff, 18. ‘‘Jeff and 1 have an apartment in Wilmington and live there most ©. the time to train with eur coach Ron Luding- ton.
