One of the most clever May day
touches the miniature May basket, a
real little basket, filled with real flow
ers, pinned to the purse carried by Mrs.
Theron Hoover as she called during so
cial activities, Friday . . .
Matrix Tabic, an annual event staged
by active and alumnae chapters of the
Theta Sigma Phi, national journalism
honorary, throughout the country, is
building up quite a tradition in Oregon
now . . . Portland alumnae arranged
their fifth annual one, Thursday night,
theirs being the larger Matrix Table in
the state . . ..These affairs were dreamed
up nearly 20 years ago and their purpose
is to honor women of achievement in all
fields of endeavor, although women in
journalism and writing are always in
cluded, of course, in the group of those
honored . . . There is one striking thing
about these Matrix Table dinners how
ever, setting them apart from routine
banquets ... At Matrix Table, politics,
prestige and "big names" mean nothing
... In other words, all guests come, re
gardless of who they are, on the same
basis, the theory being every one there
is important or he or she would not re
ceive and invitation! Only the "women
of achievement" honored at each event
are spotlighted and given special place
cards . . . Just another way of carrying
through "'e-ariE5s" a n cvtter-of-fast
principles and procedure in that free
dom of the press! . . . The Portland alum
nae chapter has worked out a scheme,
however, that assures every Individual
his place in the sun . . . Two members
make the introductions in a special sys
tem, using a hostess at each table, a
movable "mike" and a spotlight, and
in rapid order every guest at every table
is introduced! . . . Among the special
guests at the Thursday gathering were
Mrs. David I.yle Davis of Seattle, one
of the founders of Theta Sigma Phi; and
Mrs. John Webber, Portland, who was
one of the Theta Sigs starting the Matrix
Tables while living in the mid-west in
the early 20s . . .
