either was contemplating marrying anytime in the near future.

prominent organizations ou the campus—Student Council, the governing
body of the school, and the local Panhellenic Council. She is also on the

the honorary literary club on the campus. Margaret McCoy is president

We are proud to say that our girls are among the leaders In the university.
We are looking forward with a great deal of pleasure to the celebration
of the sixth anniversary of Nu Omicron on April the twenty-eighth. Won't
all of the Alumnae who can take advantage of this opportunity make a
special effort to come and be with us on that night? We are going to
expect you. N E L L F A I N '23. .
PSI—UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA
Psi Chapter wishes to introduce to our readers their new freshmen that
they have taken in since the last letter. They are Louise Kapella. Irva Raer,
Ellen Jardin. Margaret Stimpson and Anna Hassan. We are indeed very
proud of our younger sisters. Just after initiation, which was March .1. they
gave the girls at the house a charming dance. It was given at the home
of Marie Campbell who is a pledge.
Initiation was certainly wonderful this year. We had so many of the
Alumnae girls out. It was held at the Arcadia on Saturday, March 3rd.
Eleanor Gaiser was a very charming toastmistress and she arranged every-
thing so cleverly. The entire idea was carried through eight stages of an
Alpha Omicron Pi's life. We had the infant represented by a doll wh»
behaved beautifully. The other stages were the school girl, the freshman,
the pledge, the active chapter girl, the engaged girl, the married girl, and
the girl in the professional world. Each stage was represented by a particular
girl in the chapter and we heard a speech from each.
On Wednesday, April 4th, Eleanor Gaiser was married. The entire
chapter was invited and we were all anxious to see Eleanor again. She was
graduated in February, having finished her course earlier than expected.
She is now Mrs. John Lovatt.
Our annual subscription dance is planned. We are all working hard
to make it a big success for we are hoping to make our Convention fund
from the receipts. The day after the dance the Alumnae are having a bridge
party at the Bellevue Stratford. They are planning to make some money
for the Women's Club Fund of the university.
We are anticipating with great pleasure a visit from our Grand President,
Mrs. Hennings. She will just be in time to help us welcome the incoming
officers. We are having installation of officers Monday evening. Margaret
Story has been chosen for our next President. She is a wonderful girl and
very capable.
We were all glad to see Mrs. John White again who will be remembered
as Peggy Penn. She is looking very well after spending the winter in the
south.
Everyone on campus is working hard for May day. Tryouts were held
yesterday and two of our girls were successful in getting speaking parts.
There were a larg> number who tried nut for the cast so we are proud that
Louise and Gertrude were successful in their attempts.
