TO DRAG MA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI

PROVIDENCE ALUMNAE

There is so little news to write to you this time! We have held on
meeting, and that an extra one. Last Saturday, September twenty-seventh
six of us met with our president, Muriel Wyman, and made tentativ
plans for the Memorial Service to be held for Lillian McCausland, on
October twenty-eighth, Lillian's birthday. We expect to have members o
our Grand Council and delegates from Boston with us for the service.

In looking through the September To D R A G M A we find that ther
should be another name added to our chapter roll this year. Providenc
is not so large a city as some, but we have not yet located Mrs. Stewar
Crowell of Delta. Will some kind reader please send us the address o
said Mrs. Crowell that we may get in touch with her. We certainl
want to have all the members that belong to us here in Providence know
of our meeting-places, and come to our meetings. Welcome, Helen (Neal
Crowell!

BOSTON ALUMNAE

The September To D R A G M A arrived the morning of our first meetin
this fall so we have little news to offer. The last Saturday in Septembe
dawned bright and fair and twenty-five of us journeyed by auto, train
etc., to Wakefield, where Inga Little Bouve entertained us in her new
home, and such a good time that we had. After three months' vacatio
we all had so much to talk about. We were so glad to welcome Rut
Bond Westcott from Rho chapter who is living nearby in Reading
Marion Hall discovered her at a college club meeting by means of he
pin (notice the editorial in September apropos of chance meetings
Wista Ogle, our Tennessee member, was away on her vacation at th
time and couldn't come, but we've learned of a Tau girl who expect
to be at our next meeting, Margaret Howarth Nelson, whose husban
is teaching at Tufts this year. We'd be glad to hear of more member
in our vicinity. Inga with Betty Sargent, Ruth Robinson and Mario
Phillips to assist her, served a delicious supper, after which we talke
some more. Our largest meeting for some time.

We are interested in Delta's rushing. There are over seventy fresh
men this year in contrast to eighteen or twenty of the "olden days," s
the choice is wider. "Peg" Norcross has promised her charming hom
for one of the rush parties and we are sure that it will be a great success

The first of September we sent out a circular letter to all Delt
alumnae and any other Alpha O's of whom we knew in the vicinity. Th
letter told briefly of the plans for the year, some gossip and a bill fo
dues. The response has been fine for the president has received notes an
cards from far and near. We feel that such a letter once a year keep
us in closer touch with our girls. Incidentally there were several out a
our first meeting who have never attended before. Next month we hop
to take some definite step on work for the winter. The meeting will b
at Polly's on the Hill.

Eleanor Flint Chaplin, Gamma, has a new son, Daniel Gibbs, bor
