Just checked the members database and there is a Louise Kelly Bailey but no information about her.

It would make sense if she were a Theta Phi.. According to her Obit, she did attend Pitt for both undergraduate and graduate level studies, and the family was Roman Catholic.

Update: I just looked at the yearbook from 1935, and sure enough "Louise Kelly" was listed as a Junior. I'd consider this confirmation. Sad because even as an active collegian at the Pitt chapter, I didn't know that.

Louise Kelly Bailey was indeed a Theta Phi Alpha, a member of Kappa chapter. She was Gene's sister. She married Bill Bailey in 1949. Sadly, Louise entered the Eternal Chapter on February 22, 2008 at the age of 93.
