The club also praised Mrs Grosvenor and Mrs Chaysom for site gifts and proposed a commemorative tablet. A hospital discussion proceeded with support for a future Lawrence hospital. Attorney notices and local real estate items followed, plus a report on Cleland’s rubber-neck bowling win and high scores by Cleland, Bolisos, and Gibson.
