RELIGIOUS COUNCIL Row I IV Norman. C. Le Valin. N. LinJestrand. A. Larson. Row 2 W Liljegrcn, G. Hartquist, I). Lindman, I. I Erickson, I Nils. Student meetings, Fellowship meetings, and gospel teams are just a lew of the many and varied duties of our Religious Council. In fact, this or- ganization is responsible for the entire religious life of the school. To coordi- nate and direct all the religious activi- ties is the main purpose of the council. Last fall, a Missionary Emphasis Week was sponsored by the council. In the fall the council also took charge of a prayer conference, and Rev. Gus- tafson, who spoke the entire week end from the book of Ephesians, challenged all of us to new heights in our Christian experience. A Missionary Week was held in March. It was decided to con- tinue the support of our missionaries, Ted and Carolyn Kelly with gifts and pledges from the student body and the missionary fund. The annual Julotta and special Holy Week services were outstanding events of the past year. Gospel teams travelled to many Chicago churches as well as out of town places, even as far away as Marion, Ohio. Much of the credit for the success of this fine organi- zation goes to John Nilson, president, and to Nancy Lindestrand, who was in charge of student meetings; also to their able sponsor, Chaplain Erickson.

GEIJER In a class by itself, with a name almost unpronouncable by non-mem- bers, Geijer is one ot the best loved organizations ot North Park. Geijerfor- engen is highly esteemed and revered by every true North Parker. Its pur- pose has always been to promote that good old Swedish culture which most of us have inherited from our forefath- ers, and the efforts of the members this year have been highly successful. Geijer is not only for Swedish students, but for all who are interested in learn- ing about Swedish customs and tra- ditions. The tra ditional Smorgasbord was held before Christmas, and after a delicious meal, Alyce Larson was crowned Lucia Queen. Wearing long white robes and carrying candles, Alyce and her court serenaded us with Santa Lucia at the Christmas Party sponsored by the student council. Row I I Sandberg. ( I Benson, M. OIso...

DEMENUD1 During each school year, the sec- ond Wednesday evening of the month is the time when the Demenudi Club meets. The name ot this club is com- posed oi the first two letters of dentistry, medicine, nursing, and dietetics. This year the club has had many outstand- ing meetings such as the lecture on Re- cent Trends in Endocrinology by Dr. Donn; the annual picnic held in the fall; a plastic surgery film; a discussion of vi- visection led by Dr. Sanders, a professor at the Chicago Teachers ' College; and a talk on Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning by one of the club advisors, Dr. Donald Wikholm. The most important social event of the year was the annual ban- guet held at the Tally Ho in Park Ridge during the latter part of March. At that time we were privileged to have as speaker, Dr. Wallace Thornbloom, a medical missionary home on furlough from Africa. In addition to these activi- ties, Demenudi sponsored a chest x-ray campaign in the fall in which over eight hundred students and faculty members participated. Under the able supervision of the sponsors, Miss Bernice Hinshaw and Dr. Donald Wikholm, and the direction of the officers, Glenn Hartguist, presi- dent; Jane Ericson, first vice-president; Dave Ellowson, second vice-president; Carol Le Vahn, secretary; and Marilyn M. Johnson, treasurer, the Demenudi Club has added another profitable year to its record. Row 1: Row 2: R,.„, J: Roiu I Row 5: Row 6: Row 7: C. Carlson. J. Erickson. M. Carlson. 1. P. Berquist. S.
