No, it is true that Convention delegates presented a play written for Chi Omega for a number of years.

OK. I'll say C. I like pomegranates and I have actually met someone named Persephone.

a.) All Hail, Demeter!
b.) The Earth Mother
c.) Pomegranates Forever
d.) None of the above

Good guess aopirose...but alas, incorrect.

The Earth Mother was written for Chi Omega and was also performed at the dedication of the Greek Theater on the campus of the University of Arkansas.

So thats the question. I'm taking out my handy dandy NM Manual from a while back... Mary Love Collins died in 1952, and right underneath that is Elizabeth Dyer, Delta. She was the NPC chair from 1963-1965

You are correct, my sister! The answer is Elizabeth Dyer.

(One correction in your comment, though...MLC was S.H. from 1910-52, but she died in 1972.)

[BellaBerlee]

Oops, thanks ... now as I reread it says "Former Chi Omega National Presidents" and then those are the dates for her! I guess I was just so excited to answer

You are correct! Ethel Switzer Howard's badge was recently donated to the Executive Headquarters! Do you have a question, Jobellesis?

Is is the first chapter in Chi Omega - Psi?

[Jobellesis]

Psi is correct. I think that this was one of the first issues of Life after they began publishing it again. It came out just as I was finishing my senior year in college. I graduated a few weeks later. One of my sisters told me about the issue, and I bought one for myself. I've kept it all these years.

I guess it's your turn to ask a question.

[BellaBerlee]
