r October 3, 1946. O Tj ^ E N B L U Page 3 Chapter Chatter Alpha Eta Sigma Alpha Eta Sigma is working on two projects this year. One is a continuation of last year’s project and an additional one this year. Last year we sent three boxes of clothes, food, and other necessities to a Dutch family whose name was given to us by Dr. Abernathy. We have received two letters and some pictures in reply. The family, like so many others in Europe, is in dire need, especially since it is a family of fifteen. As our new project this year, we are planning to donate our services to either the Memorial hospital or the Bethlehem house. Our members volunteer for afternoons when they will be free to go, and our sorority Intends to appoint two afternoons a week for them to work alternate ly. The plans are not definite as this goes to press; we hope to have the news for you by the next issue of the “Blues.” Alpha Delta Pi Although they have been at Queens College for two years, Law- rie Clark and Ruth Sherrill have just decided this year to be Cam pus Kids.” The A D Pi’s spent two gi’and nights at Davidson last week. The girls went to the K A house Wednesday night and to The Pi K A house Thursday night. Wouldn’t it be nice if they had Rush Week more often? We certainly were proud to find that our new province president, Mrs. McChord Williams is from Charlotte. Certainly would liked to have seen Jo Loftis at the Debutante Ball in Raleigh. The A D Pi’s are really missing Pran Craven, Nancy Stitt, and Venie Mizell, who have added Mrs. to their titles. Alpha Gamma Delta After a summer of suntans, ra diances, milkshakes, and varied ex periences. the Alpha Gams are once again settled at Queens — full of Pep—anticipating a year of work and fun. M. K. spent a lazy summer at the bleach; it seems that Travis, Kitty, and Rusty had gala times at sum- Orientation KALE-LAWING CO.

Ruth and Neva chose to spend their time as counselors at camp—they liked it too. It was good to see alums “Sparks,” “Queenie,” and Carolyn back on campus. Certainly do miss our old girls. Understand that Caro lyn Cartwright, Kitty Ross, Kinkie Watts, and Ruth Hardison are thriving on matrimony — must be wonderful. Chi Omega Our first Sunday nite “feed” of the year, colored by the culinary efforts of Misses DeArmon and Em erson, was a huge success. There .were two newly-made “alums” among the old ones who were there to greet us-“Slickie” Potter and Elinor Bell. Many new things have been added since last spring, es- uecially on the third finger, left hand of our presidet, Carol Wohl- ford Sarah Bobbitt has returned to us after a seige in the WAVES. Plans have been made for many good'times this year, the first being a joint party between Chi Omega and Phi Mu. Kappa Delta During the summer several of the K. D.’s became happy brides. Es telle Darrow became Mrs. Nevin Rice on June 7th, Betie Austin was married to Wallace Krueger, Aug ust 14th, and on September 7th, Mary Kathryn McArther marched down the aisle to become the bride of Robert Broadway from Shelby. Also in the near future Nellie Da vis, who hailed from Hillsboro, N. C., will become a young Mrs. . . . Ashley Jones has been asked to sing at the wedding. Big plans are going on at the house. Our house had a dirty face so we decided to paint it. We are doing the. inside over too. Phi Mu Burns had a roaring time at the convention on Mackinac Island, Michigan. Kinney’s ring is definitely VOOM! We’re planning a party with the Chi O’s at Barbara Hanson’s cabin on the river. Initiation will be Saturday Jinky Gray, Ruth Kinney, Alice Tucker, Mildred Scott, and Frances Simpson. The feed by the alums promises to be a treat. (Continued f '■■m Page 1) Memphis, Tenn.

Fashion Notes Have you noticed the wonderful wide belts around Queens campus lately? Some of the freshmen have been sporting some really clever ones. We’ve noticed a precious red leather belt with silver studs com plete with a tricky zipper coin purse. Also there are some smart creations in brown leather and black kid. Jane Davis looked grand wearing her unusual belt made of shells. Then there’s Emily Kimrey’s bright red belt. And surely you’ve noticed Geneva Underwood’s brown leather one with a big, long, gold buckle. Mary Lynn Hagler has a snappy brown belt with gold rim med holes all around it. And surely the new fall suits our Queens have been sporting lately have caught your eye. In gray we have Joanne Maccaulay’s chald- striped wool and Conally Smith’s with the smart new sleeve circled at the shoulder with a wide black band. Eloise Hardin looked striking at the Davidson football game wear ing her new black gabardine. Gol die Barron’s forest-green suit but toned with handsome silver but tons stood out at the game also, and everyone has commented on Lillian DeArmon’s navy blue suit with the unusually clever jacket. The newest styles in shoes are being worn by the smart Queen this year. Anne Johnson looked stun ning wearing black pumps with dramatic snakeskin platforms. And those spike-heeled, wine-colored shoes of Zayda Cardona are really attractive. Gloria Lindsay wears the very latest in an unusual black and white combination. The rain bow-colored loafers are brightening up our campus this fall with red, green, yellow, brown, and black predominating. Have you ever seen anything as cute as the Davis twins dressed ex actly alike and wearing adorable brown derbies with saucy brown sat in bows in back. Looking cute as a button was Maude Dickson in a perky beach sailor complete with a little black veil. And talking about black . . . Sara Dell Adams had on a precious bonnet-shaped hat with a turned up brim and a jaunty black feather way down on one side. A high-crowned brown felt with a blue and brown ribboned satin bow worn high over the forehead set off to advantage Kathryn Robinson’s out fit last Sunday. Someone once said that you can tell a queen by her crown and a Queens’ girl by her hat, and we are really keeping up with that tradi tion this fall. Smart Box Stationery Bill Show Co.
