Kappa Beta Pi Founders' Day Dinner at Dodge Founders’ day of Kappa Beta Pi, in- ternational legal sorority, was cele- brated in Washington this year with a dinner last evening, December 15, in the garden house of the Dodge Hotel. Mrs. Edwina Avery, president of the Women's Bar Association and dean of province 2, was toastmistress. The Committee on Arrangements was com- posed of Edith Cooper, chairman; Caroline Hopp, Grace Kanode, Mary Marraffa, Lula Prather, Louise Roe and Anna M. Smith. Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mussey, Judge Kathryn Sell- ers and Elizabeth C. Harris, who are honorary members of the sorority, were honor guests. This legal sorority was founded in 1908 at Chicago-Kent College of Law and its purpose is to encourage a higher professional standard among woman lawyers and law students, and bind them together with a lasting tie of fraternal relationship. It has grown slowly and conservatively as its charters may now be granted to only qualified groups in American law schools on the approved lists issued by the American Bar Association and the Association of American Law Schools. There are now over 50 ac- tive chapters in the United States, 1 in Canada and 1 in France. Out- standing woman lawyers who have achieved distinction at the bars of England, France, Germany, Switzer- land, the Netherlands, Spain, Mexico, Canada, Brazil, China, Socuth Africa and Egypt are numbered among its members. In this country, in addition to those members who have hung out their shingles of “attorney at law” and are successful practitioners, Kappa en- joys the distinction of having in its membership and points with pride to Judge Florence Allen of the Sixth United States Circuit Court and Judge Genevieve Cline of the United States Court of Customs Appeals. Mention must also be made of Kappa women who are doing valuable work for their country and communities in the ca- pacity of judges of Juvenile and Do- mestic Relations Courts, members of State and National Legislatures, as- sistant corporation counsels, clerks of courts and so on. ‘Washington is particularly fortu- nate in having a colorful aggregation of capable woman attorneys. Not only are there the District of Columbia residents, but there are many women here occupying posts in the Federal and local governments, not to men- tion many new positions in the New Deal which call for legally trained ‘woman lawyers.
