January 31, 1944

Dot’s brief note mentions some excitement in the ranks of senior retail students today. First, one of the girls was walking across campus when she spotted a sailor. She was so intrigued by the sighting that she continued to watch him instead of the sidewalk. She realized her error when her forehead made abrupt contact with a flagpole, requiring three stitches and a new pair of glasses. Another student slipped on the ice getting out of a car and broke her ankle. Let’s hope there are no more casualties!

The only other news of consequence was that her mother wrote to Dot sending particular greetings to Dart.

The letter ended with the admonition to “…sleep tight and stop that scratching!”
