248 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

NU OMICRON

GENERAL

Since N u Omicron is still a very young chapter, we have only fourteen
alumna:. There are only four graduates f r o m this list—Katrina Overall
McDonald, 'i8, Ellenna Webb Douglass, '18, M a r y D . Houston, 'l8, and
Katherine Sharpe, '19. Marion and Douglass Legg are attending the University
of Texas at Austin and f r o m all reports seem to have made quite a place f o r
themselves there. M a r y John Overall is at school at Sophie Newcomb, and
although we are glad to share her with P i , we still claim her as our own since
she was out of the chapter long enough to become an associate member. Since
Katrina lives so close to New Orleans, she and M a r y John see a great deal of
one another. K a t r i n a has just written a very enthusiastic letter about a recent
visit to New Orleans, when our district superintendent, Margaret Bonner
Bentley, was there.

The Nashville A O IPs are teasing Mary D . about her advent into the
movies. Recently a new theater has been opened i n Nashville, and several o f
the stars of filmdom were here to add to the general excitement. The Girls'
Cotillion Club, of which Mary D . is a member, had the actors to tea at the
Country Club and later pictures were taken, which are to be shown all over
the United States and Canada i n !...<« Theaters. Mary D . would be glad to
meet her sisters in this way. She can be seen talking to the actor, T a y l o r
Holmes, and also i n a "close-up."

Katherine Sharpe, who received her degree i n Pharmacy last year, is putting
her education into practice, filling prescriptions i n a drug store out west.

lone Blair Goodpasture, ex-'2o, is still as loyal as ever. The active chapter
is glad that she and Lurton live in Nashville now.

From last reports Ellenna Webb Douglass and her doctor-husband are still
as blissfully in 'ove as ever (and that is saying l o t s ) .

Our two remaining brides, I*ois Calahan H i n d m a n and Mary H a r r c l l
Rogers are not so busy w i t h domestic affairs as to forget college days in
Alpha O. Mary intended to visit her friends this winter, but decided that i t
would be best to wait until summer-time since Jacksonville is pleasanter in
December than Nashville. Lois comes to see us quite frequently. She still lives
at Fulton, Kentucky. Our other Fulton alumna, Marion Huddleston, cx '22,
was here at the last party the actives gave. We were also delighted to have as
our guest at the party an Omega sister who is doing V . W . C. A . work here.
Josephine Johnson and Elizabeth Tarpley, both from Omicron, attend all of our
fraternity functions.

I forgot our most recent bride—Billie Shelton Belsches, ex-'20, who lives on
a farm in Virginia. We rejoice with her in her happiness, but have not quite
forgiven her, for we were counting on having her back in school next year.

Louella Whorley has stopped school and is playing "lady of leisure" at

present. •

Alice Colsher has j u s t returned f r o m Atlanta where she made an extended
visit to friends.

Although Mary Annie Landy is not "constitutionally" a member of this
chapter, she is every other way. We were sorry to lose her f r o m Nashville, but
glad that she and " P o l l y " Hobson (another Omicron g i r l ) are enjoying their
work f o r Uncle Sam in Washington.

Since all the alumna: are disposed of, I would like to tell those who have
not been i n close touch w i t h the chapter this year, that the growth of N u
