Dear Mother, Father, and Pete:
We had no trouble about the seats last night. The trip passed very quickly.
The debate tryout poster us up. The debate subject is, "Resolved that the United States should Grant Immediate Independence to the Philippines". That is the debate you lost unanimously about ten years ago, is it not, Pete? Tryouts do not start until next Monday, Material for reading is available now.
My schedule is not as agreeable in arrangement of hours as last semester, but will be all right when I get myself adjusted to it. I have first hour every day except Friday. The only class on Fridays is third hour, over at eleven-twenty. I will therefore be able to leave on the eleven-thirty-seven, Mother.
Mrs. Hertz asked me for dinner tonight. Hope you let Isaac have his way yesterday. Did you, Mother?
I have been reading the paper and writing letters ever since my first hour class. I am too sleepy for any work, besides which, I wouldn't quite know what to do. Social Psych lecture is huge, there must be over 100. Love,
[Fannie]

Dear Fannie,
Only indirectly thru the folks have you heard from us, as we try to include all our dear ones in our "round Robins." Sorry that neither time nor energy permitted our traveling to say a personal farewell to you, but thank you for desiring it. It is also regrettable that you could not come to N.Y. How would you like to join us over here next summer? Perhaps Aunt Hattie will Chaperone you? Reports from Pittsburgh are quite satisfactory; but how I wish they could share this fine sunshine. glad you had enjoyable xmas holidays. Keep well, do not overstrain. Lots of love from Uncle Hugo and Aunt Pauline.
