Transcript | NEW OFFICERS ELECTED The following officers were elected at our November business meeting: President, Renee Rabb; Vice President, Linda Jones; Secretary, Joy Goodman; and Treasurer, Cynthia Millis. These people deserve your support during the coming months. WOMEN'S CENTER CLOSES The Women's Center closed on Sunday, November 14. The Center had been the home of Houston Area NOW and several other feminist groups since January of 1973. Due to lack of financial resources, the chapter voted to leave 3602 Milam in search of less expensive quarters. The Women's Center had provided a home for consciousness raising groups, task force meetings, fundraising events (everything from wine & cheese parties to photographs of nude men), newsletter collating parties, Thanksgiving dinners, the preparatory work for the 1974 NOW National Conference, coalition meetings for everything from the ERA to the Jeff Davis Nurses, meetings of the Channel 2 Women's Advisory Committee, and August 26 celebrations. It was also the starting point for the caravan to the infamous drink-in. And it provided a home for Willard and her offspring, several wild cats, and bugs galore. And it is no more. There will be another home for Houston Area NOW, of course. Even now, members are scurrying around checking out prospects. In the meantime, the phone has been installed in the home of one of our members, who has volunteered to take messages, etc. Our temporary mailing address is 4021 Mandell "o, Houston 77006. The furniture that had been donated has been sold. The library is at the home of Nancy Kuykendall. The files and other material are stored at the homes of various members. We may not have a roof over our heads but we still have a network of people who care. |
