Letter from Salt Lake Public Schools – Am going to answer it soon.   Took another long walk today with Alyce Claire.  This time Mary went along.  Got food card at Cafeteria.  Wrote several days ago to the Matson Steamship line in Los Angeles about routes and prices.  Also wrote to L.A. Chamber of Commerce about other steamship offices. Ty-Ty says Dad is planning to be here the 25th for two days.  Surely hope he can make it this time.
