Slept until 1:30 P.M! Some record – Graded a few papers and was thinking of going to supper when Foster called and wanted a date.  We double-dated with Ellis and Ellen (?) Anderson who is bacteriologist for Dr. Haire.  Saw the same show I saw yesterday but we rode around and had a good time until 11:30.  No word from Alyce Claire

Here’s what else was happening 80-years-ago today

Friday early  1 A.M.  But not in bed for long – Alyce Claire got a call from Gene that Joyce would have her “baby party” right away.  In 15 minutes Alyce Claire had decided that she must go and I would not let her come alone so we both left town at 1:45 A.M. Got there at aaoc3:15.  The baby came at 6 but it was dead.  The less said, the better. It was a terrible shock to everyone, she had been so perfectly healthy.  We left about 7 and got back in time to give 2 exams. I gave Joyce some chloroform but aside from that  I rather stayed out of it – Haven’t been much good all the rest of the day.  My first experience with a birth but I hope it is not my last.  There followed a bitter discussion on A.C’s part on life in general and having families and suffering in particular. Poor girl!  She has been through too much in the last few months.  Wish I could do something for her that would really help.
