Arlington Va.
23 Oct 1947.

Dear Doris:

I have some news for you: Billy Dodge came to "collect for the Star" tonight, and said they are coming up to race Harvard the weekend of Nov 1-2, Sat & Sun. and he thought if he had time he would like to see you and may Eric Nordholm would come along too! So - if he is to go, he will let me know later in time to tell you and arrange for seeing you.

They have been [[strikethrough]] play [[/strikethrough]] sailing the last 2 weekends: 2 weeks ago they sailed in N.Y. and came off 3rd in 9 contestants. Last week with 5 or 6 at Annapolis they came off 1st, Princeton next. And this weekend they are going to sail with 2 or 3 others. He seems quite excited over the business and very much interested in seeing you up there too. So don't get scared.

Love
Mother
