Dear Mother, Father, and Pete:

I had tryouts last night. I think I did pretty well. I I then came back and studied until eleven. I feel as though I had staid up all night, as my neighbor from across the hall did. I have tryouts again tomorrow night. I have a paper due for Romance tomorrow and a history topic due first hour Friday. I have as yet started neither one.

I have four classes tomorrow morning, so that if you don't hear me in Philadelphia you know why. I cannot get a letter off before the afternoon mail unless I write before break fast. I'll tell you now what I would have to say then.

"Worked on history topic all Wednesday afternoon and on English paper all evening. Will work all afternoon today."

I spent three hours in lab this morning, and after analyzing an unknown solution for two hours and a half, dropped the solution. That means I have to start all over the next time.

Love, Fannie
