DAUGHTERS HOLD BRUNCH IN L.A.

PLANS FOR CHAPTER UNDER WAY

Sixteen people attended a get-acquainted brunch of the Daughters of Bilitis in The English Room of the New Clark Hotel in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 27. After a rundown of the organization's activities to date and plans for the future, enough interest was expressed that immediate steps will be taken to start a provisional chapter in the Los Angeles area. Anyone else who would be interested in joining a local group in Los Angeles should contact us immediately Daughters of Bilitis, 693 Mission St., Room 308, San Francisco 5, Calif.

▲ chapter in Los Angeles will be the first of many we hope to charter throughout the country. It is hoped that the next area to be organized will be New York. We have had many queries and requests from that vicinity. has recently moved to New York and it is hoped that as soon as she gets settled she will be able to supervise formation of such a group.

To date we have had a good response from Seattle. Certainly the interest is there but indications prove that there is still much "fear". It will probably be some time yet before Seattle people are ready to join the movement.

QUARTERLY PUBLICATION COMING UP

THE LADDER staff is preparing a quarterly publication which includes the first three issues of THE LADDER. This will be ready in the very near future.
