OK, here goes:
 
*The Bronze Hot-Dish*
[winners names to be inscribed on the pedestal, which resembles a can of
cream-of-mushroom soup]
 
*The Gov. Arne Carlson Cup*
[a statuette of "Governor Goldy" dropping trou at the state of Iowa]
 
*The Clique Cup*
[finally, a trophy of our own (created by Josten's, of course) that won't
have to be shared with anyone "not from around here"]
 
*The "Real Good, Then" Trophy*
[a miniature likeness of police chief Marge Gunderson (from the film
"Fargo") giving a big "thumbs up"]
