4 print or handwritten items: One partial news clipping congratulates Constance Pelzer for being chosen as College Marshall (among others). Another item is a 1922 Commencement program and list of graduates, including Constance Pelzer on cream cardstock. One of the two handwritten items is an unsigned note (presumably by Constance Pelzer) on a small square of acidic paper describing the friendship of her mother and the wife of President D.B. Johnson and Constance’s subsequent frequent visits with the Johnsons that introduced her to many notable guests (among them Jane Addams and the donor Harry Emerson Fosdick). The other handwritten piece is a letterhead note from Mrs. James W.
