80 TO DRAGMA OF ALPHA OMICRON PI
To DRAGMA. Peg attended summer school at the University of Cali-
fornia, Southern Branch, but she did not study all the time! For she says,
"We took in all the sights we had time f o r ; sleep was the only thing we
did not see much of." She, with Helen Haller and Ruth Cook made a
happy trio on more than one occasion. Peg is back in Cleveland again
this year. She decided she was too much of a home-bug to leave her
big sister and stay in the west.
Sophie Nichol attended summer school at Indiana State.
Peg Westfall was Counselor at Wiseacres, the Dayton Y. W . C. A.
camp, during the summer months.
Mr. and Mrs. William Bohlender (Esther Schmitt), with wee Mary
Ann, enjoyed a motor trip through northern Ohio last summer. They
stopped and had dinner with Henny at the Bronze Lantern in Columbus,
and called on Katherine Zwerner Thibaut.
Charlotte Haarlammert Ragan, with her Alan, stopped in Oxford
and called on old friends, before "Fording" back to Palmer College,
Albany, Missouri.
Addie Louise Winston is teaching at Elkton, Kentucky, this winter.
MoVee Lindsey has been promoted to the position of buyer in the
book department at the Rike-Kumler Company in Dayton. MoVee is
wildly enthusiastic about her work. She spent a delightful two weeks last
summer, motoring through the east with M r . and Mrs. Runkle.
Mary Young stopped off in Oxford for a bit of a visit on her way
to enter the University of Chicago, where she will work for her master's
degree in sociology this winter. Her address is 48 Green Hall.
Helen Scott saw Grace Willis Smith in Knoxville last summer.
Scotty says, "We had lunch together and gossiped for a whole day at
Whittle's; so that we could see where the rest of the AOn's had enjoyed
convention.
Edna Gilbert is teaching in Youngstown, Ohio, again this year.
Lucille Dvorak spent a few days the first of October with Milly
Dennison in Oxford. She was enroute to Cleveland, after a year spent
in the south in Chautauqua work. Lucille is as "pepful" as ever, and
says, "The experience of the past year makes me appreciate two things—
Main Street (no truer book was ever written) and good dentists!"
A nice, newsy letter comes from long-unheard-from Alice Venn. Until
the September To DRAGMA came, she did not realize how much she was
missing in being out of touch with the fraternity, and now is anxious to
get back. Alice left Newport High this year and is now teaching at
Norwood, Ohio. She motored to Kansas City and spent the month of
August with Jessie, who is in the office of the Fred Harvey Restaurant
Company there. Jessie went out to visit cousins last November and liked
it so well that she stayed.
I wish you might all see the two darling pictures that Martha Hughes
Fry sends—one of Fry's "love nest," the other of Howard Hughes Fry
and his "muddy." Mart seems to think heaps of that little son!
Martha Jane Hitchner called on old friends in Oxford the last of
August. She was on her way back to Philadelphia, where she will be
with the White-Williams Foundation again. Her work with them really
ended October first, but they wanted to keep her on a while longer with
the Junior Employment work. A f t e r that she will be in the employ of
the state and connected with the Mothers' Assistance Fund. I t all sounds
very complicated, but Martha says it is just about the same as school
counseling. Whatever that is! She and Lucille Dvorak had tea and a
confab together one day in September.
