January 1915 ANCHORA:


Interesting tidbit about the three "Delta" chapters:
"Hanover College...installed Delta chapter in the fall of 1881...this was the second time that Delta was chosen for a name of a chapter in Delta Gamma, but fate seemed to decree it an unlucky choice for later a third chapter dared to choose this Greek letter and each in turn passed out of existance. The unlucky trident of Delta has become a legend in Delta Gamma and no new chapter braves the superstition."

"Delta" chapters were:
Delta (I) - Trinity College, TX (1880-1881)
Delta (II) - Hanover College, IN (1881-1887)
Delta (III) - University of Southern California at Los Angeles (1887-1897)

This ANCHORA has a GREAT history published within it -- most interesting to me was the "investigation" of the Psi Chapter (which was our first chapter at the Lewis School for Girls - though the school's name had been changed by the time the chapter's charter was withdrawn.
