      Successful Scholarship Fundraiser



      Held By Panhellenic Alumnae Of Palm Beach County



         On March 8, the North Palm Beach Country Club became
      the scene of a fictional crime where women attending the annual
      scholarship fundraiser were treated to mystery and suspense
      while enjoying their lunch. It began with a mystery trivia
      competition followed by a discussion by the speaker, Oline H.
      Cogdill, who reviews mystery fiction for local papers. Her list of
      awards, essays, judging of mysteries and thrillers are numerous.
      She held Saturday’s audience “captive” by her stories of life
      experiences and allowed questions after her speech.
         Cogdill donated mystery books that she has reviewed to
      be sold for the scholarship fundraiser. In addition, the alumnae
      chapter had filled the banquet room with silent auction items,
      raffle baskets, lottery tickets and other items that were sold to
      raise money for scholarships. Last year ten scholarships were
      given. In all, the event was a success, and plans have already   Honnie McClear and Meg Kravetz sell lottery and 50-50
