OMICRON PI

As commencement time again draws near we alumnae look forward to
another increase in numbers from the present senior class at Ann Arbor.
And we certainly welcome them heartily, everyone. As underclassmen they
worked faithfully on whatever they saw to be done; and as seniors this
year they have been shining examples to the younger members of the chapter,
both in work and in play.

We're all looking forward to summer plans. Louis Duncan's "summer
plans" will cover four years. She sails in May to Shanghai; China, where
she will have charge of laboratory work in St. Luke's Hospital. She has
been in Detroit this last year gaining experience and is truly in love with
the work. Now we feel so proud of her achievements that we can almost
forgive the chemistry prof, who in Louise's undergraduate days made her
take a blue-book on the afternoon she was to be initiated. She spent a week
in New York in February planning for her trip, and also having a good time
in the city.

Dorothea Comfort is still in New York preparing for her work in foreign
fields. Her address is St. Faith's School, 149 110th St., New York City. We
are right pleased with our "missionaries."

The winter formal at the chapter house lived up to all traditions. The
whole thing reminded us of the party last winter when we turned furniture
movers, only this time we didn't have to do any of the work.

Then the Sunday following Detroit alumnae chapter held initiation at
Ann Arbor. There were a number of Omicron P i Alumnae out for that.

Eleanor Eaton and her sister Genevieve were back on Friday night for
the Junior Girls' Play. Irma Schnauffer went with them too, then went
on to Cleveland the next morning for spring vacation.

Irma has been near enough to spend her week-ends in Jackson this winter
and we know from experience how delightful a week-end with the Eaton's
can be. Then, of course, she has the added attraction of seeing Tommy,
who has been teaching algebra in Jackson High this winter.

Peg France is living in Detroit now, so we hear. She was in Ann Arbor
for winter initiation as were Bea Smith, Eleanor Eaton, Hildah Bateman and
Louise Duncan.

Marie and Carleton are now nicely settled in an apartment in Chicago.
Marie writes that her engineer husband has supplied her with three radios,
and she would love to be able to listen in on a nice "gossip party."

Speaking of listening in, wouldn't it be nice if we could all adjust
our head pieces, turn the screws and hear everything that goes on at the
convention? We'd all love to be there, but those of us who are "professional
women," have to be stern with ourselves, and say no. Anyhow, we wish
