Irma Jean came to our school from Bozeman, Montana, and spent just her senior year with us. A comparatively new stu- dent to' Bellflower Christian, she is rather quiet, but we suspect she really is as full of fun as the rest. When you come to know her, you will discover her wil- lingness and ability to work hard. She is always reliable and cooperative. Her favorite pas- times are rollerskating and rid- ing-in motorboats, that is. She has done real well as a member of the Glee Club and as a mem- ber ofthe G.A.A. also. Her arn- bition is to secure an office or bank position. t.?- 'N r . i . x ...J SHARON BROE RSMA Here I am, you lucky people.

As a freshman she joined the Delta Gamma Club, as a sopho- more she became a member of the Gazette Staff, and as a jun- ior she belonged tothe Forensic Club. Her performance in the Junior Play will be well remem- bered. She sang in the Glee Club for the last three years and readily participated in the activi- ties of the G.A.A. for the past two years.
