Dearest,<\/p>\n

We got back in Chicago about 10:00 it rained all the way and I think I about scared Steve<\/a> to death. He didn’t like the way I passed trucks.<\/p>\n

Honey this picture is really wonderful. It was certainly worth it to stop by Champaign you don’t know how glad I was to see you and then it had to be for such a short time.<\/p>\n

I thought I might go home around May 1, that weekend around then.<\/p>\n

I made it to all my classes this morning even if I didn’t feel like it. We have an exam in Chemistry Thurs. I hope they don’t give a quiz today because I haven’t even looked at a book. Maybe that is what I should be doing now but you have a certain effect on me that I had to write you.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I wish we could be together more than we have been but I guess there is not much that we can do. I think I will be home around June the 1st or 2nd. Will you be there then? I don’t believe my summer school starts till June 22. Steve is going up into Wisconsin Thurs. and see his girl I doubt very much if he ever gets there, but he might.<\/p>\n

My roommate hasn’t got back yet. I am beginning to think he might have got married he was sort of thinking about it. If he has I probably won’t see him around here very much. That will suit me fine.<\/p>\n

I am always expecting a letter from you and as the score stands you owe me about ten. I will settle for three a week.<\/p>\n
