YELL SQUAD Every school must have its pep builder. In Conrad the Yell Squad has never failed to respond to the call when the team needed their support. Comprised of fifty-nine members, this booster group provided all the enthusiasm needed to spur the team on to a successful season. TWIRL CORPS The Twirl Corps has entertained at numerous basketball and football games. They gave generously of their talents and presented colorful, precise maneuvers. Numerous demands were made from the spectators for more performances from this group. It is the sincere hope that next year an even larger body of performers will be organized. This is indeed a school spirit building and morale boosting organization.
