The Eau Claire Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, an Honor Society in Education, chose Miss Betty Tobola, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Tobola of Thorp (Clark Co., Wis.) and a junior at Eau Claire University, to be their delegate to the Twenty-sixth biennial convention in Denver, Colorado, which was held March 6th through March 10th. Miss Cynthia Philbrook, formerly a resident of Thorp and now a Senior at Eau Claire University, was chosen to go also as an alternate delegate.

Miss Tobola and Miss Philbrook were flown round trip by United Airline and stayed at the Denver Hilton Hotel. They attended general sessions and group discussions each day from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Some of the highlights they enjoyed were a tour of the Air Force Academy, a visit to the Garden of the Gods and a trip to the Flying "W" Ranch, which included a chuck wagon dinner. A formal banquet ended the convocation. The delegates will be giving a report on their trip to the chapter at its regular March meeting.
