Remitting dues for those of its members who enlist in the service of Uncle Sam is nothing new for the Multnomah Athletic Club, which has 675 of its members in the present conflict and six gold stars on its mammoth service flag for those of its members who have given their lives in the service of the Nation.
Twenty years ago yesterday, May 25, 1898, 33 members of the Winged “M” institution sailed from San Francisco for the Philippine Islands as members of the Second Oregon Volunteer Regiment. The directors of the club met the same week and unanimously voted to remit dues of these 33 members who enlisted for the Spanish-American war.
