The Kosciusko County representatives at the recent Mr. and Miss Tri-State competition fared very well, with Steve Sponseller, Rt. 8, Warsaw, bringing home the first place trophy and the title "Mr. Tri-State." Steve also won a gold belt buckle. Terri Cox, Rt. 6, Warsaw, placed third in the competition for Miss Tri-State, which was quite an accomplishment, because at 11 years old, she was the youngest participant.
