The new Rose Queen, selected from among the seven members of the Royal
Court, which was announced last Monday, is Camille Clark of Pasadena.
At La Salle, Clark is a member of the school cheer squad, National
Honor Society and Junior Classical League. A tutor at inner-city
public schools and volunteer at Union Station and the Covenant House,
she hopes to attend the University of Virginia and major in finance.
The queen and her court will take part in more than 150 community
and media functions leading up to the 117th Rose Parade on Jan. 2
and the National Championship Rose Bowl Game on Jan. 4.
More than 1,000 young women from the Pasadena area tried out to be part
of the Royal Court. Selections were based on a range of qualities,
including public speaking ability, poise, academic achievement,
community involvement and personality.
Clark's court includes:
-- Lorri Bowman, 17, attends John Marshall Fundamental High School,
where the Altadena resident is the student body president and a
member of the varsity tennis team. She hopes to work with children
as a speech therapist.

School, where she is a member of the National Charity League and the

-- Alyssa Jones, an 18-year-old Arcadia resident, is a freshman
at Pasadena City College, majoring in child development. She is
organizing a volunteer group that teaches horseback riding to
handicapped children.

School, where she is president of the Art Club and active in student
government and the yearbook. She hopes to study speech and physical
therapy in college.
