Dessa Thompson, in Pasadena, to which all the new girls were invited. Another outstanding event of the year was the Atlas-Axis reception dance at the home of Dr. Longyear in Alfadena.

This past year we have continued our bimonthly professional meetings under the direction of Dr. Georgia Smith. The Kappa Psi Delta sorority was an outgrowth of the A. S. O. It was started in the spring of 1904 and was incorporated according to the laws of Iowa, with ten charter members. When the S. S. Still College of Des Moines was sold and the student body divided, the majority of members came to Los Angeles, where a new chapter was established in the fall of 1905. There are now chapters in Philadelphia, Chicago, Boston, Kansas City and Los Angeles. On October 2, when school opened, we were pleased to welcome thirteen new girls. The premier of our rushing season was a dinner at McDonnell ' s, followed by a motion picture at Loews State Theatre. Kappa Psi Delta ' s annual reception sponsored by the Alumni was given at the home of Dr. Wade Morris in Los Angeles. Following the reception twenty-one girls spent the week-end celebrating hdallowe ' en at Edith Putman ' s delightful cabin at Redondo Beach. As a special treat for the December meeting Dr. Eleanor Keim of Melbourne, Australia spoke on practicing in a British Province. In February, the alumni and actives entertained new members with a dinner given in Dr. Charles Weston s home. The April meeting of field members and actives was held at Dr. Amanda Lowe s home in FHoilywood. In the second week in April the field members entertained the girls on Kappa Day, April 19, with a delightful dinner given at the home of a field member. Kappa Psi Delta ' s formal dance of the year was given in the beautiful country home of Dr. Katharine Gibson in San Fernando Valley. Page Seventy-one

Astra Chapter of Lambda Omicron Gamma was organized March 8, 1929 at the College of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons as a part of the National Lambda Omicron Gamma Fraternity which was founded in 1924 at the Osteopathic College in Philadelphia. Although the youngest fraternity on the campus, Lambda Omicron Gamma can look with pride at the achievements of its few years of existence. In 1932, we were honored by the award of Interfraternity Scholarship Plaque, won by our maintaining the highest interfraternity scholarship rating on the campus. A number of interesting and instructive meetings were held during the year. At the first Hy Katz welcomed the new men on the campus and introduced Dr. J. Farber, who addressed himself particularly to the sub-frosh and freshmen on the prob- lems confronting them. Dr. FHatfield held a clinic on appendicitis. At another meeting Dr. Jenney, who has recently returned from a tour of European hospitals and clinics, gave some of the highlights of his experiences abroad. Dr. N. A. Davis presented a paper on the diagnosis and treatment of arthritis. Dr. Dain L. Tasker spoke on pneu- monia, and illustrated his lecture with X-Ray slides. .New men inducted into the fraternity this year were J. Brotman and B. Gordon, and a number of men were pledged. Ten girls of the American School of Osteopathy, realizing that they were enter- ing what was accepted as a man ' s field, and that their work was difficult, started a study club. One day while walking to class with Dr. Georgia Stennenberg, Dr. Still suggested that the girls study group, which was a sister organization to the Atlas Club, might fittingly call itself Axis, so was named the first women s osteopathic organization. As time went on, new osteopathic schools were opened in other cities and new chapters were added to Axis which was incorporated as a sorority. The chapter in Los Angeles was the last one to be formed in 1917. Axis Sorority began their year with a party at Dr. Collinge ' s cabin, just before school began. On October 13, o formal reception wos held at the home of Dr. Page Seventy
