The Omaha Panhellenic was entertained at a tea on December 16 by
Delta Gamma sorority. I t has been the custom to hold a luncheon semi-
annually, but Delta Gamma holding the presidency, decided on the tea
instead, which proved a.happy idea. The tea was held at the new Nurses'
Home at the Nebraska University Medical College, and over 200 were
present. Blanche Potter has been the secretary. The loving cup was
presented to Phi Mu for the highest scholarship of the past year. A
delegation of about ten members came up from Lincoln for the presenta-
tion.
Our December meeting had been planned f o r January 6, but as a
number of active girls were in town it was decided at the last minute to
hold it on December 29 with Olive Wrightson and Jessie Wigton. Of
course a number of alumnae members were out of town, but that is always
the case when the active members are here. We were indeed glad to see
Jean Dow, Lucille Mauck, Lucille Crapenhoft, Ethel Wiedner and three
pledges, Helen Brown, Helen Gould and Elva Carter.
At a»sale conducted the first part of November we cleared over one
hundred dollars which was sent' to the Zeta house building fund. We are
planning for a magazine sale to be held in the spring. We have had a
chance to meet a number of Zeta members who come here to the hospitals.
In the last month we have seen both Cora Durbin Hale of Malvern, Iowa,
and Hazel Williams Emley of Wisner. We have a Courtesy Committee
which calls upon all Alpha O's in the hospitals.
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Lueder (Marion Gregg) Iota, announce the birth
of a son on November 14.

DETROIT ALUMNAE
Anyone who doubted the strength of Detroit Alumnae need only to
have been present at the November social meeting of the Detroit Council
of University Women to have been quite convinced that our lung power,
at least, has no equal. As a "Kinder band" we flatter ourselves that we
are quite unrivalled in volume. The stunt f o r the evening took the form
of the Homely Ladies' Journal, life-size, each group in the organization
representing one page or department of the magazine. As one of the
younger organizations, we held the honor of the Children's Page in our
hands, and together with the Doll Dance presented by three of the Ann
Arbor pledges, our orchestra tooted itself lustily to glory.
As a reward f o r our valiant endeavors to uphold the glory of the
children, we entertained our own and only chapter baby, Billy Frances
