The boys (you know, Archie and Freddie and the rest of the fellas) told me that if I really wanted to see life as is I should go to the summer school just once. So I said what I could and went up to University and asked J--. I asked for a catalogue and got one and brought it down to read. And, to quote a subtitle from Corinne Griffith's last--I was as breathless as listerine when I found what I could take.

For--there is an excellent little course in folk dancing, a delightful little twenty dollars worth of aesthetics But best of all is the course in apparatus. I have always wanted to take a course in that, that and prescription. Really I begin to see why the boys recommended this. Imagine how superior one would feel to know his apparatus--I suppose it has something to do with--well I really am not quite sure what it has to do with. But it sounds very easy. Though folk dancing has a distinct lure for me. I have ever been enamoured of the May pole, though vicariously. I really am not that kind--not quite pastoral--no.

Which reminds me of a letter I received recently from one of the--well just one of the only four or five hundred.
