EPSILON—CORNELL UNIVERSITY

Once more we are in the midst of a busy rushing season. Everything
is progressing very satisfactorily under the excellent management of Peg
Johnson. The Frosh class this year was held down to a certain num-
ber so those who were able to enter must be of the best. We are hoping
for the best possible results. Violet Ransome, of the class of '25, is an
excellent rusher and is back for the rushing season. We are more than
glad to have her for she works patiently from morning until evening doing
things for the house, helping with favors and all sorts of things.

Gertrude Linnahan, '21, was back to help us last week. Flo Foster,'24,
will be here this week. We are hoping Elsie Smith. '24, will be here
third week. Gladys Burgess, a Frosh last year, has a leave of absence—
she also helped us last week. Best of all, we have Betty Neely. who is
assistant to the Dean of Women, to turn to, in time of trouble. She helps
us whenever we have perplexing problems and we certainly owe much to
her.

Mrs. Tinker is our new chaperon. She is awfully interested in the
house and we have her loyal support.

Frances P. Eagan, President of Women's Student Government As-
sociation, is back, not only doing much to make student government a
success, but also, is giving every extra minute to aid in making this one
of the best rushing seasons ever.

Frances Mount is another loyal supporter of Student Government.
She is President of the Sophomore Class.

Ella Behrer, Bebe Stow, and Muriel Drummond are presidents of
outside houses.

Carmen Schneider, chairman of the Grandmothers' Committee, was
busy the first few weeks helping the poor freshmen find their grand-
mothers, whose duty it is to make their freshman's first year as pleasast
as possible.

Helen Worden is on the Y.W.C.A Cabinet this year. She, also, is an
active and ever busy church worker.

Dorothy Harris and one of the Seniors are very interested doing
Red Cross work in the slums of Ithaca.

Betty Michael and Johanna Buecking are rehearsing for one of the
first plays to be given on the campus.

Mikki Wilson is working hard, as she usually is, on a Graphic Com-
petition.

Muriel Miller is back after a leave of absence and is living in an
apartment with her brother and sister.

Anita Goltz, '24, was back the week-end we had completed registering.
We expect she will be back to visit us again soon. She is teaching in
Buffalo this year.

Marion Staples, '25, who is now Mrs. John Fessler Haller, is living
in Burlington, Vermont.

Marjorie Kimble Gephart has moved from Auburn to Pittsburg.
Dot Johann and Hilda Wilson are doing chemical work in hospitals,
Dot in Philadelphia and Hilda in New York City.
Veronica Brown is doing graduate work at Columbia in medicine.
But most important of all, we must not forget our fraternity presi-
dent, "Maddie" Koby and the report she brought back from Convention.
She. with the aid of Elizabeth McAdam, has told us much about con-
vention till it almost seems as though we were all present. They have
instilled the hope and desire that we may all attend some day.
