The club's meeting in Jan 1932 "was devoted to the screening of members' pictures, the projection including 9.5, 16, 28 and 35mm. widths, which exemplifies the cosmopolitan nature of the Chicago Cinema Club. Every member was requested to bring a 100 foot roll for projection and those who brought no film were fined twenty five cents." (Gale 31).
