Thursday Evening

My dearest Mama Doll,
Your sweet letter arrived today and was waiting when I came in from school.  We got out a bit early since there's a big football game at 7:30 P.M. My school plays a school (Horace Mann Jr. Hi.).  They had a pep rally during the last period.  Such yells and cheerleading could hardly be surpassed by a real high school or college.  I guess I'll try to see the game since one of the captains is in my home room.  I was not assigned to duty this time. 

Things have been going very nicely.  The children are far from bright, but somehow I'm "forcing" them to get certain routine knowledge.  I'm not even trying to counteract some of their weaknesses
