Dearest,<\/p>\n

Have been studying steady since 7:00 and am about wore out. I stayed down at Elaine’s last night and this morning Stan and I got up and played tennis. My game is improving.<\/p>\n

About my dating when I was home last time. I saw Mary after the senior play and we went to the restraunt. I know what you are going to say now that you see why I was so understanding about the pin. Maybe I was understanding but I was also disgusted. I have told you many times that Mary doesn’t mean a thing to me and I still mean it. This might not sound very convincing in a letter but I do mean it.<\/p>\n

Don’t you think “Bud” is alittle to much of a reduction for John Gerald Anthony Garity Jr? I guess its not any worse than Tom for Thomas E. Cartmell. I never put the Erastus anymore the E. enough.<\/p>\n

Fri. night about six of us took the “L” down in Chicago to the show to the “Chicago” saw a pretty good stage show. Wish you could have been here. Honey when I think of how little I get to see you and how little the chance is for us being together for any length of time in the near future it makes me sick.<\/p>\n

Have you been having a date every night?<\/p>\n

Only two more weeks to go I hate to think of summer school. I doubt if I last through it.<\/p>\n

With all my love,<\/p>\n

Tom<\/p>\n
