Historical Note
The New Orleans Athletic Club traces
its origin to the formation in 1872 of the Independent Gymnastic Club, an
appellation which it thereafter used until it was renamed the New Orleans
Athletic Club in 1929, the same year in which its quarters at
Irwin
Felix Poche (1897-1971) was for many years closely associated with the New
Orleans Athletic Club as a member, an employee, an officer, and editor of The
Punch. An account of his numerous
activities in this and other endeavors can be found in an article about his
death (Times-Picayune, May 9, 1971).
