FIRST ROW: Millar, Connelly, Carroll. SECOND ROW: T. White, M. Moore, Gaynor, Again this year the Dance Commit- teemen were undoubtedly the most overworked, but least appreciated, group on campus, it was the Dance Committee who labored for long hours hashing and rehashing their themes, it was the Dance Commit- tee, friends of the friendless, who were the matchmakers, it was the Dance Committee who pillaged the campus for stuffed chairs and filled therewith the Pergola, and it was the Dance Committee who built bridges, teepees, rocks, and trolley cars, thrice converting the dining hall into a thing of beauty and a ioy forever, and then thrice obliter- ating all signs of merrymaking, re- assembling the chairs and tables, storing the streamers for another day, and feasting in the wee small hours on their sole reward: milk, Jello, and stale bread. World, meet these martyrs and offer them your heartfelt thanks. DANCE CCJIVIIVIITTEE. Miss MacDonald and friend. 9

CAMERA CLUB Presidents Hall and L. Somers, Again in i959-60, with Mr. Wilson returning as faculty advisor, the Camera Club enioyed a most suc- cessful year. So great was the in- terest in photography that There was not enough ldarkl room, as the year progressed, however, and as space gradually became available, any shutterbug who wished to become an active member, could. The neo- phytes were introduced to the strange and wonderful techniques of developing and printing film and pictures. So well-trained were the new members that they began to give their unhappy instructors de- moralizing competition in periodic photo contests. To the helpful in- struction of Mr. Wilson, the caustic and not so helpful remarks of Presi- dent Hall, and to the more or less honest interest and enthusiasm of all members, the Camera Club owes its success.

CSF CUM LALJDE Again this year the ranks of the California Scholarship Federation swelled to a new record, or new records. Twenty-three percent of the student body during the first semes- ter and twenty-six d-uring the second, represented the largest membership in the history of the school, and an enviable indication of achievement. Membership in the Federation is wholly honorary, and is open to students of grades no lower than two A's and two B's. At Webb, however, it serves the functions of a scholarship list, and carries with it the bonus of one free week-end per semester of membership, The most e x a lte d of Webb's useless societies, however, is its chapter of Cum Laude. A pure gravy proposi- tion, the full membership is an- nounced only at the close of the school year. Dreadfully exclusive, only Seniors with four-year straight-A averages were admitted before Com- mencement this year: Benson, Gen- tile, and Mulhauser. -fi 3 Cum Laude: Gentile, Mulhauser, Benson.
