THE SANDWICH CLUB THE SANDWICH CLUB is an organization of the young men of the College interested in moral and spiritual questions. It is composed principally of ministerial students and has one object— the securing of positions for the young ministers. The Club meets on the first and third Fridays of each month of the school year. At meetings a lunch of a substantial character is served — hence the name. The program of each meeting usually consists of an address by a prominent man on some church question or a sermonette by one of the members of the club.

THE PRESS CLUB ' W PERHAPS the most unique of the many auxihary organizations of the college is the Butler Press Club. This organization has a twofold purpose since it offers both social enjoyment and training in journal- ism. Almost without exception itb members intend journalism as their life ' s work and essay to make it truly a profession. At the beginning of each year a program committee is elected which proposes and executes most of the work for the year. Monthly meet- ings are held at each of which the club is addressed by some successful editor or prominent journalist. Follow- ing an informal discussion of some phase of newspaper work the next thing in order is a feed. The Batler Press Club is a member of the Indiana Association of College Press Clubs. The officers of the club are Fred E. Shorte- meier, president; Bloor Schleppey, vice-president and Benj. Reach, secretary-treasurer. Membership is by election.
