Pork Queen crowned

Kelli Baier, daughter of Stan and Imogene Baier of rural Wayne, will represent the Wayne County Pork Producers in the 1983 Nebraska Pork Queen Pageant to be held Jan. 7 and 8 at the Ramada Inn, Grand Island.

The contest is being held in conjunction with the annual meetings and banquet of the Nebraska Pork Producers and Porkettes.

Pork Queens from 28 area groups will be vying for the 1983 Nebraska Pork Queen title. The reigning queen is Verlyne Dannehl of Bertrand.

Each contestant will present a five minute consumer-oriented oral presentation before a public audience and will have personal interviews with a panel of judges.

They will be judged on general knowledge of the pork industry, ease of expression and personal poise.
