(This is an entry from the journal entitled Mexico Summer written by Elizabeth Lancaster Carsey 80-years-ago. )

Washed hair, clothes, and got a little straightened out for the week.  In drying our hair on the roof we both received a slight sunburn!  Wrote Alyce Claire and the family. Slept a little after dinner. Expected Carsey to call about tonight but the telephone was discompuesto. They, he and Bob, came for us about 9:15 and we strolled through the Alameda before indulging in the Regis.  The Austrian Von Helmsburg came in and Betty and Bob stayed with us until we decided to look into the Montparnasse (or old Heidelberg?) They had good music at the latter but it was tres crowded.

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

A new Saturday Evening Post

The U.S. and Russia shake hands.
