a flat tire, during the whole 3,900 miles. Quite a record, isn't it? They
are still raving about the scenery, and the good times at convention.

much inspiration and heaps of new ideas from Minneapolis.

      Our officers f o r next year are: President, Helen West; vice president,
Hazel Buzzell; secretary, Priscilla Knowlton; editor To Dragma, Corinne
Furbush; and treasurer, Florence Ramsay.

       Summer activities of Seattle alumnae chapter have been mainly social.
 W i t h all except about $25 in hand of the $250 needed for the second year
 of the Alpha Omicron Pi bed, the members have been resting from their
 year's activities. Some sort of benefit affair will be held in September to
 finish up the sum which is due about October 1. The scheme of finance
 which will be carried out during the next year to raise the fund for the
 third year of the bed has not been decided upon.

       On August 1 the chapter held its annual picnic at the home of Ethel,
 Adah and Minnie Kraus. We abandoned the plan of dancing for a change,
 and spent the evening after supper in games and about the camp fire on
 the beach.

       On August 15 the annual summer luncheon was held at the Women's
 University Club. Active members were invited to attend and a large
 crowd was present. After the luncheon Laura Hurd gave a talk on the
 convention and bridge followed for the remainder of the afternoon.

       A number of brides have been added to the chapter this summer.
 Helen Lewis has been married to Forrest Schaefer and has moved to
 Seattle from Raymond, Washington. Alice Turtle was married early in
the summer to John Wolfe and is living in the university district. Mar-
garet Shotwell was married to Jack Gregory in a pretty wedding at the
chapter house. Ruth Jordan was married to Sterling Peterson at her
home in Oregon and is now living in Seattle, not f a r from the house.

      Alice Campbell, one of the most active of our members, is in California
this summer and has been in the San Bernardino mountains as an assistant
director of one of the Los Angeles playground camps. She has been plan-
ning entertainments and leading songs.

      A number of the alumnae worked on the Theta Sigma Phi convention
in Seattle in June. Beryl Dill Kneen was vice-marshall, handling pub-
licity, commissary, program arrangements and entertainment features. Kdith
Korres handled the housing and worked on advertising. Mildred Fruden-
feld assisted in publishing the convention paper and directed the stunt
night.

      Minnie Kraus enjoyed a trip to Yellowstone during her vacation.
      Ethel Kraus has returned to Seattle after taking her master's degree at
Columbia.
      A number of Upsilon girls have been in Seattle during the summer,
including Lois Wiley, who is teaching music and singing in Pittsburg, Car-
oline Paige of Portland, and Eloise Fleming of Yakima, who attended
summer school, and Anne Seeley Gilbert of Yakima.
      Word has been received in Seattle of the birth of a daughter to Elinor
Peterson Allen. The baby has been named Elinor Jean. Elinor and her
husband live in Spokane.
     Anita Pettibone has been married to Robert Schnelby and is living in
Spokane.
