CONNOISSEURS FOUND CLUB TO EXALT, HONOR LOWLY EGG

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Harvard's first non-political club to be founded since the New Deal went into office held its first meeting Monday night in its Mount Auburn Street clubhouse, Jim's Place.

Entitled simply The Cheese Omelette Clubbe after a motion to name it The Cheese Omeletic Institute of 1941 was defeated, the organization is headed by gourmet Rufus Mathewson '41 and gourmand Nelson Gidding '41. Its seven members plan to meet in one of Mr. Cronin's semi-private dining rooms on Monday evenings, order their "omelettes epatants" from the special chef, and dine before the awed gazes of uninitiated onlookers.

Clubmembers celebrated the Club's founding by sending their personal cards to the chef inscribed with "special directions and praises" and visting the kitchen to compliment him after they had finished. "Your products are chef d'oeuvres rivalling those of Madame Poulard of Mont Saint Michel which I love so well," Gidding proclaimed in a eulogy to the blushing cook.
