Gee, I thought it was a great honor - and certainly wish you lots of success. Are you stationed on the west coast or in Japan? I may go to California next summer - Really can't make up my mind - I'd like to visit Mexico also - Have you ever spent a vacation in Mexico? Last summer I went to Portugal, Spain - North Africa - If you drop by New York - please give me a ring - Oh, just remembered took phone listing out of fall book - may put it back - try - If you ever write - drop a line PS. You know Mr Clarence Williams died - heart attack Sincerely yours Ruth A Herr Mo6-3113
