SPEEDWAY PSI lOTA XI National philanthropic chairman of Psi lota Xi Sorority, Mrs. Gordon Cook of South Bend, Ind., visited with the local westside chapter, Gamma Theta, at the home of Mrs. Dee Brubaker, 5939 Elaine, and announced a new fund inaugurated by the sorority to buy badly needed audiology and speech equipment for Riley Hospital for Children. Recently chapters have contributed to the purchase of a new machine which is used in the diagnosis of problems of the head and throat affecting speech. “Further expansion of the work of the sorority in the field of speech and hearing problems involoves interesting students in entering this field of work. An effective way to accomplish this is to send students to a boarding clinic at Ball State University to observe work being done in this field. Indiividual chapters will pay nominal fees to cover the cost of the clinic,” said Mrs. Cook. Mrs. Maurice King, 1733 Beeler St., and Mrs. Joe Fidger, 5705 Hollister, will direct the chapter’s philanthropic work this year, one facet of which is the lending of hospital equipment for use in the home. There is no charge for this service. Members voted to buy an additional wheelchair for use to meet demands. Hostesses assisting Mrs. Brubaker at the meeting were Mrs. Warren Johnson, 101 N. Lawndale, Mrs. Jack Lee, 6020 Elaine, and Mrs. Merlin Kirchoff, 5909 Elaine.
