Mar. 4, 1919

Dear Mother,

I made 110 on No. 1 this morning. The wind was fierce both morn-ing and afternoon. I should have had 100 - I had a 10 on a hole that should take five or six, and an 8 on one that should take five, and a 5 on one that should take three Father and Mr. Wintringer and I played. This afternoon Mr. Lawrence joined the party. He

played his first match in the tournament today and was beaten. So was Mr. Hall - [six seven] up and [seven six] to go. Mr. Wells made a 79 today. He celebrated afterwards, too.

Mr. Wintringer left tonight. He surely is nice. The only thing I have against him is that he talks like Norman E. Henry.

I played miserably this afternoon. The wind got the better of me, and made me tired later on, so I stopped after fifteen holes. in accord-ance with your and Dr. Jonah's instruct-ions. I feel fine now,

after dinner and a hot bath.

I got a long letter today from Marian.

After writing to Gdpas tonight, if it isn't too late, I shall typewrite and read some of the astrono-my Mr. Wells gave me. He surely set me going.

Has anybody called up for the debating stuff?

Love,

Fannie

My dear Stella

Fan's report is so thorough that she leaves little to report. I [notice]she failed to tell you I played well morning and afternoon. This afternoon I had the ball going better than ever this year. The day was [fine]; its raining tonight but tomorrow should be [right]. I am going to let Fan take a couple lessons of 1/2 hr each to see what that will do for her. I see Lesters term exams begin on the 24: I suppose that cuts out Washington as he will likely want the previous Saturday and Sunday for preparation. Will you pls [phone] Leon Falk and ask him for

a letter of [introduction] to his [Uncle] in [Savanah] for your father. Papa asked me to get it before he went away. Let L.F. mail it directly to papa. I feel quite well - that pain has [reappeared] but is not so pronounced as it was. Read yours of Monday. Love and Kisses

Affy
