In the fall of 1926, the club emerged from the embryonic stage and established itself as a sectional club composed of students from Troy and the neighboring cities. The majority of members are graduates of La Salle Institute of Troy. It has for its purpose, primarily, the promotion of the interests of Blanhattan, not alone on the campus but to further the name and fame of Manhattan in the Capital District. Its influence is most keenly felt in the environs of its members. At the beginning of its third year, Mr. Hugh A. Graham, '29, succeeded Mr. Byron as President of the Troy Club.

Reardon '29 Secretary, Edward Johnson '30 Tr1'aszn'er, Leo Cleary '29 In the merry autumnal month of September, 1926, there arose in our midst the 1nigl1ty figures of two famous alumni, namely, VVilliam Nippy', Dunn and Blorgan Hliedi' Burke, both of football fame, to thrust forth their unshaven chins and announce the formation of the Nutmeg Club. During their reign they bent painstaking efforts to the formation of a ubona fidew Manhattan Club. Every year the club celebrates with a oyous Christmas Dance, and this school year has far surpassed the rest. Under the able chair- manship of Edward McGrath, its president, the club ran a beautiful informal hop at the Mattatuck Country Club. Those of this club who will be graduated this year. leave the Colle 'e with sadness in their hearts. They mass to active under- u 0 U . 1 Q graduates the heritage which has been given them and which they have tried to preserve during these short four years. Um' Himdwd fiiglily-Him' :-... .
