The proceeds are used to buv the jackets awarded to the senior lettermen who have earned at least 2 majors and 2 minors, one major having been earned in the senior year. Under the supervision of Coach Jacobs, the club has grown in size and prestige. The seniors pictured below are the winners ol the gold and blue jackets awarded by the Lettermen s Club.
