CHI
Under the capable management of Jessie Lewis '24, the chapter house
has been kept open for the summer school session at Syracuse. Among
the number of alumnae and actives whom we have heard are there, are Ruth
Walker, Helen Howalt, Ruth Caskey, Mina Gordon, Flo Gilger, Mildred
Riese, and Mildred Sittser.
Mildred Pehrson, ex-'25, is attending Summer Normal School some-
where in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Marion Jones and
Esther Koon are studying languages and art respectively in summer
schools.
Emily writes me that Ruth Guthrie Woodruff is taking a trip to
Colorado this summer.
Some of our teachers are to be located in other cities and some
remain in their former positions. Fran. Carter is to teach in Paterson,
N. J . , Gertrude Marks in Baldwinsville, N. Y . , Gertrude Hall in New
to Wolcott, N. Y . , to teach music and physical training.
Among the seniors this June, Kay Jenkins will teach at her home
in Ridgewood, N. J., and Doris Knapp at Wellsboro, Pa.
A pleasant surprise was given to me today when Genevieve Canfield
Mason and friend husband stopped for a few minutes chat. They were
en route from Syracuse to Hartford, Conn., and intended to make a
surprise visit also at the Memorial Hospital at Albany, where Marcia
Rosbrook is dietitian.
Agnes Crowell Rood has been visiting her parents in Syracuse during
the summer. A letter from Esther Hagenbucher Hill at her summer
cottage on Oneida Lake tells me how delighted she was to receive a visit
from Agnes and to hear the news from Detroit.
The much heralded houseparty of Chi and Alathea Alumnae is sched-
uled for the ten days of August 22-31. Polly Emmerling Stage, coming
from 'way down Arkansaw,' will be only one of the many from furrin'
parts to be welcomed at the chapter house.
Frances Canady Myers, ex-'24, gives an enthusiastic description of
her visit in the East during the- month of May. Helen and Buster Mc-
Nees, Polly Howalt and Thelma Robertson were four of Chi's girls with
whom she managed to visit. She is delighted too, with the silver baby
cup sent by the actives to little Grayce Elizabeth.
Frances' address is 1224 Bonita Avenue, Berkeley, Cal.
ENGAGEMENTS
At the delightful senior dinner given by the sophomores at the chapter
house on May 30, startling announcements were made. Recovering our-
selves after the announcement of the engagment of Matilda Petri, '24,
to Mr. Frank Olrich of Syracuse, we were surprised to receive red roses
to which were attached the cards of Katherine Jenkins, '24, and Mr.
Burton Robert Clement, '23.
MARRIAGES
On June 14, at the chapter house, the wedding of Esther Hagen-
bucher, '20, to Allan D. Hill of Syracuse, took place. Besides being one
of the prettiest weddings we've ever seen, it was the first to be held
in our new chapter house. What a thrill it gave us as we saw first
Kay Gilcher, '20, charming as maid of honor, and then the bride come
down the lovely winding staircase! Chi girls who were present were
Doris Knapp, Emily Tarbell, Mina Gordon, Ruth Hawkes and Margaret
Kreisel.
Invitations have been sent out for the wedding of Matilda Petri to
Frank Olrich on Sunday, August 10, at the Irvington Presbyterian Church,
Irvington-on-the-Hudson, N. Y.
A delightful out-of-door wedding has been planned for Aug. 30, at
Fine View, Thousand Islands, the summer home of Jessie Lewis. Esther
