James wins Ms. Senior 0000[evada
PAHRUMP--Pahrump can now claim a new Ms. Senior
Nevada winner among its ranks, Millie James was crowned
with the title on June 29 at the Boomtown casino in Las Vegas.
James also won the talent portion of the competition with
her mime impression of Ray Stevens' "The Streak", which is
a rer•dition of horrible little tales involving a streaker. She
dresses as an old man as she "tells" the tales.
A 10-year resident of Pahrump, James said her husband is
ecstatic about her win. She works as a gaming auditor at
Terrible's Town Casino.
The areas of competition are gown presentation, talent,
philosophy of life presentation, and interview with the judges
for poise and personality. Her philosophy is, "We all have the
capacity to create small miracles each day. If you can put a
smile on someone's face. If you can help someone who's
down, then you have created your miracle."
Josephine Weatherspoon of Pahrump was also a contestant
in the pageant. Entrants have to be at least 60 years old to
participate. This is the 12th year of the contest and the first
year it was held as an open competition in which they did not
have to first compete representing a town.
James will travel to Biloxi, Miss., to compete in the national
competition in September. She is a mother of 4, grandmother
of 8 and great-grandmother of three. One daughter lives in
Pahrump. At 5 feet 11 inchs, James was the tallest contestant
in the state pageant.

NHP to have additional staff in Pahrump
PAHRUMP--Trooper Steve Harney, public information
officer for the Nevada Highway Patrol, advises the Gazette
that the NHP will have additional personnel in Pahrump
over the Fourth of July weekend to help the local office with
holiday traffic. With the extra help on Hwy 160 traffic, the
NHP is hoping that it will not have to report fatalities from
the fireworks activities or alcohol consumption and driving.
Highway 160 near Pahrump has not claimed a life recently
among the many weekly accidents, but there was an
immediate fatality Sunday night, June 28, near milepost 44.
Raymond J. Ruiz, 21, of Las Vegas was killed instantly in
a rollover accident at approximately 8:20 p.m.
Ruiz was a passenger in the 1982 Ford wagon driven by
Jennifer Gerber, 19, of Henderson• Gerber was driving
northbound when the left rear tire blew, the car went off the
roadway and flipped over. Rodney Gallegos, 20, of Pahrump
and Kathleen Spurlock, 15, of Henderson were also
passengers•
Gerber and Gallegos received minor injuries and Spurlock
was listed in serious condition at University Medical Center
in Las Vegas. A blood-alcohol test was given Gerber and
the incident is still under investigation pending the results.
