Dear Doris,

Just a couple of scratches to let you know I received your letter, & boy you're pretty snazzy going on vacations during school times! We get our class rings on the fifteenth, and we get out on my birthday this year.

Well, I was watching a baseball game, sitting just about between the pitcher & the [[strikethrough]] cactcher [[/strikethrough]] catcher, when a fly ball was batted & the catcher came to see if he could catch it. Just as I was about to get up to get out of the way, He came running & hit me in the mouth with his knee. My teeth almost went right thru my lip & I have one big 3 cornered cut, two others, & one on the inside on the lower lip!
