Thelma Mothershed

The quietest of the group, Thelma is also the smallest. A mere slip of a youngster, 16 years old, she had had long experience in learning patience. While in elementary school she suffered an attack of rheumatic fever that kept her out for three years. At that, she is only a year behind in her studies. Thelma has always wanted to be a schoolteacher; ever since the first day she ever attended one. Nothing that happened at Central High School this past term has shaken that ambition. Her pastimes are quiet ones, necessitated by her health (she would love to be able to dance), and include baking cookies, crocheting, reading or going to the movies.
