The membership is very limited, admission being granted only to ten sophomores and five fresh- men, two faculty advisors and the Dean. Because it is an honor club, the members are elected for merit. Besides the constant and pleasant task of spreading pep and good cheer, the Boots and Daggers has sponsored several special occasions for students. The society had the privilege of giving the first school social; games, cards, dancing, and refreshments were the source of entertainment. Another new feature, initiated to the program this year, was the Men ' s High Jinks, attended by over two hundred students and professors. The regular events fostered are the Book Exchange, to help circulate books: the Student Handbook, edited by the Boots and Daggers secretary and containing rules of administration; and two competitive events; the Water Pull and the Breakfast Relay. Boots and Daggers hopes that these activities have helped to reach that desirable goal — an ideal college atmosphere. i [571

Camera Club fa 1928 Officers Spring 1929 RodDonkin President LOUIS PROPER William Miles Vice-President Robert Hansen Dudley Robertson Secretary-Treasurer DUDLEY ROBERTSON Hratch Mugar Business Manager ROD DONKIN Faculty Advisor GALE GRISWOLD ' ■Hold That Pose! Although it is less than two years old, the Camera Club is rapidly becoming one of the most popular organizations in school. With an active membership of over thirty, the club participated in several field trips, banquets, and informal entertainments during the past year. Members of the club get a great deal of pleasure out of developing and printing their own pictures. In fact, they have found it so interesting that the darkroom is always crowded with men experimenting with their films. They all feel that the knowledge of photography gained by participating in the club ' s activities will prove beneficial to them in the future. One of the outstanding accomplishments of the club this year is the founding of the College Scrap Book. This is composed of snaps of events of interest taken about the campus. With pages devoted to football, field trips, the bonfire rally, and campus snaps, the book presents an accurate and interesting record of the school year that all can enjoy. This year marks the beginning of the Scrap Book, but it will be kept up by the Camera Club each year and when completed, it will be an excellent pictorial history of M, J. C. [58] --• '
