Biographical / Historical

The Credjafawn Club and their guests went on a Gypsy Tour Sunday, June 22. They left the John Banks Jr. home at 705 Iglehart Ave., at 9:30 Sunday morning. From there, they drove to Sommerset, Wis. and had breakfast and the next stop was Taylor Falls, Wis., where they spent the day. No one but the lead car and the social committee knew where they were going. All had a most enjoyable day. Mrs. Byron Brown is president of the Credjafawn Club and John Banks Jr. is chairman of the social committee. In Minneapolis Spokesman, June 27, 1952, p. 7
