meetings of the National Panhellenic Congress. However, we were able
Jo have "get-acquainted" banquet last night and we who had not had the
oleasure of meeting these wonderful sisters before were thrilled at the
opportunity. We are looking forward to another meeting within the next
f e w days.

     Dorothy Tucker Wilkes is N u Kappa's new Alumnae Advisor and
we enjoy our close association with her so much. We feel that with her
wise advice, backed by the alumnae, Nu Kappa should be able to accom-
plish great things.

                       BETA PHI—INDIANA UNIVERSITY
      The beginning of the new year, 1926, finds the AOII's at Indiana with
many new and welcome things with which to start the year off right.
      First, we have a new pledge, Gladys Weeks, of Lafayette. She is
a sophomore and a darling girl whom we're very glad to have.
      Seond, we have two brand new Phi Beta Kappa keys, belonging, one
to our president, Kathryn Bolitho, Chicago, and the other to Roselyn Beal,
Terre Haute. These new owners are trying hard to learn where and how
to wear them modestly. Kate and Roslyn were initiated into their own
fraternity on December 10th, 1925, and since that time we've been feeling
that our scholarship will be higher this semster due to their example.
      T h i r d : Marjorie Ashley, although that is not now her name, added a
new AOn husband to the list on New Year's Eve. She is now Mrs.
Harold A . Owen. Marjorie and Packy were married at her home in Fort
Wayne. Capt. Owen is a tactical officer in Howe Academy at Howe, Indi-
ana, and Marjorie is going there in February.
     Last but not least, there are three new fraternity pins in the house.
The first to appear was a Lambda Chi Alpha pin which is now being worn
by Katharyn Hoadley, Bloomington, a pledge. This pin was once the
property of John Ellis Fell, of Greentown. John is certainly to be con-
gratulated, but since he's a very likable fellow himself, it's mutual!
     During Christmas vacation, Mary Rogers became the proud possessor
of a Phi Kappa Psi pin which was Jimmy Beck's. Both Mary and Jimmy
live in Bloomington and have known and liked each other a long, long time!
Jennv Carpenter, Sullivan, attended the Sigma N u convention at West
Baden during the holidays, and came back wearing the "white star of
Sigma Nu." Don Bowen of Lebanon, was the "bestower" and we agree
with the "bestowee" that he is a very nice one. To Kate, Mary and Jenny,
Beta Phi offers congratulations and her sincere wishes for much happiness
and joy during the coming years.
      Beta Phi is taking a lively interest in athletics this year and several
girls are now on teams. Pearl Koegel and Kathryn Hoadley made fresh-
man soccer team; Kathryn Blough and Mary Elizabeth Johnson, freshman
hockev team; Vivian Ellis, sophomore hockey team; Thetis Kemp and
Catherine Lawrence, junior soccer team; and Dorothy Clarke, senior soccer
team. Dorothy Clarke also made Varsity soccer team.
      Miriam Combs, a pledge from Terre Haute, and Annabel Sproull,
Bedford, are both in Glee Club this semester. Annabel was also accom-
panist for the cantata, "The Rose Maiden" which was given in Decem-
ber by the University chorus.
      Thetis Kemp. Union City, is the newly elected vice-president of the
Junior class. This new "job" is added to an already long list of activities
for Thetis. She is treasurer of both W . A. A. and W . S. G. A., is a
member of Pleiades, and is on just about every committee that comes

mother so kindly offered to hold f o r us in Gary could not be given during
