Conroy Girls’ Club First Row—Left to Right: Quammen, Johnson, Brokken, Hanson, Hoiness, Bean, Elliott. Second Row: Miss Bjelland, Workman, Hendrickson, Carpenter, Jacobsen, Nolle, Knudson, Bates, Bean, Scanlon. Third Row: Arns, Kraling, Losen, Elton, Bigalk, Dennstedt, Scanlon, Riseland, Kingsbury. The Conroy Girls’ Club is an active junior organization of the Women’s Club of America. This year, the club’s membership totals twenty-five. The main objective of the Girls’ Club is to buy books for the school library. Through their work, they encourage the reading of more and better books. To Miss Bjelland, who has been their advisor for several years, the club owes a great deal. It is with her leadership and patience that the girls have so successfully achieved their aims. Each year, the seniors are presented with gold pins, and this year the juniors and seniors purchased gold sweaters with the Club’s maroon insignia sewn on them. In the future, the upper class members will have the privilege of buying official sweaters. An interesting assembly program, featuring the life and music of Stephen Foster, was included in the club’s activities. The frequent meetings with planned entertainment, book reviews, and tasty refreshments were a source of many hours of delightful fellowship.
