Founded in 1925, it has achieved remarkable success in all its under- takings. To the Mi. I. C. must be given the distinction ot' being the first organization to 'sponsor a smoker in Alumni Hall.

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' :-... .
