The eligibility of these initiates was determined by their fulfillment of the requirement that their rating place them within the upper tenth of their class as measured by grades for scholastic achievement in the first two years of their college work. During the meeting in which the new members were received, officers for the year were elected: Mary Frances Devine, president; Ellen Shropshire, Vice-president; Mary Anne Dunn, secretary; Claire Notzon, treasurer. The Chapter is limited in membership by the numerical enrollment of the Junior and Senior classes of the College and by the scholastic rating of the members of these classes, which determine the one tenth of the number who shall be eligible to the distinguished honors of recognition by the Chapter. In each year the students, thus made eligible for membership, are nominated by the faculty advisory committee in conformity with the evidence of the official records. Students s0 authenticated for membership, with the faculty representative, constitute the active Society. Miss Margaret Leech represented Texas Phi Chapter as faculty delegate of Incarnate Word College at the twentieth annual meeting of the State Council, which was held in Nacogdoches, March 28 and 29.

Numerous projects undertaken under the notably competent direction of the Moderator, and with the enthusiastic cooperation of officers and other members were carried to creditable achievement. Among the distinctive, memorable promotions of the organization was that of the move- ment to foster the reading of Catholic literature. In the development of this program, appointed groups were assigned to the reading and reporting of several specified Catholic novels. To conclude the course of this activity a general discussion was held in assembly, and the results were appraised in a commentary on the benefits derived from the prosecution of this noteworthy engagement. Since! the purposes and objectives of the Sodality are fami- liarly known, as well as are its many achievements, the record requires no more than passing mention of them. Hence, there are noted no more than an indication of the main of these accustomed activities: the weekly meeting each Monday of the Sodality and its committees, the regular recital of 'the office one day each month, the catechetical instruction of under- privileged children at Guadalupe Center and other places, the articipation of the Sodalists in the Diocesan C. Y. 0., and their enterprises in the several fie ds of influence peculiarly apt to the apostolic ventures of a college Sodality. The officers, 1940-1941, appear on the roster as: Gertrude Martin, Prefect; Mary Katharine Russell, Vice-Prefect; Lucy Gold Lytle, Secretary; Dorothy Mae Regini, Treasurer. Committee Chairmen are announced as: Catholic literature committee, Rita Ruth Carlin; Apostolic committee, Helen Caesar; Our Ladyis committee, Betty Jean Lamm; Eucharistic committee, Maria Liebscher; soc1al committee, Zelime Lytle; publicity committee, Marian Seng.
