        Associate Professor of Mathematics, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois. 
         
        Dr. Logsdon became a charter member of Kappa Chapter in 1937, and after 
        her retirement was a member of a chapter in Miami, Florida. 
         
        She was active in determining the early policies of Lambda State Organization. 
        Her accomplishments in the field of mathematical analysis positioned her 
        among leaders in various fields of education. She is described as an instructor 
        at Chicago from 1921 to 1925 when she was promoted to assistant professor. 
        During the year 1925 to 1926 she was an International Education Board 
        Fellow, studying in Rome. Her paper "Complete groups of points on 
        a plane cubic curve of genus one" appeared in TAMS 27 (1925) 
         
        She held the envy of her friends because she enjoyed a cottage in the 
        Dunes of Indiana and was a great devotee of outdoor life. 
         
        At one time she was president of the Chicago branch of A. A. U. W. 
        The following is copied from a letter written to Miss Ruth Schneider on 
        May 14, 1967, just a few weeks before her death. "Since 1946 I have 
        been Associate Professor Emeritus of the University of Miami. My field 
        is mathematics. I am now eighty-five years old and am living an extremely 
        satisfactory life in the East Ridge Lutheran Retirement Village near Miami. 
        I have enjoyed reading the reports of DELTA KAPPA GAMMA activities in 
        Lambda State which have reached me and I congratulate those who have worked 
        so successfully in building an important place for the Society in the 
        educational world." 
         
    Deceased July 4, 1967
