ommended. All seems to be satisfactory and I'm dismissed. White spots were mentioned – still a few which ought soon to disappear.
Wes drove us out and back to the Ferry in a machine. Visited Roberta L. for a few minutes. She's feeling much better but hasn't been out yet and didn't feel strong enough to go over with us.
It's beautiful and warm here today. Can't be much better down there. Wonder what time of the night or morning you departed after a wonderful time at the wedding. Your machine is outside your house. Suppose Tiny is still around. Not being able to get central last night I was afraid you weren't going to be able to get us perhaps. I'm glad you did a. Be good! I lost heavily the last hand last night.
As ever D.

Dear Charley –
I happened to see a letter today which Aub. Rawlins, a 1st yr. man in the Med. School there wrote to Vic Randolph here who is an Alpha Kappa Delta brother of mine but who is also a Nu Sigma.

How's the old med. work coming? Hope as fine as silk and nothing to worry about. We're head over heels in it and like it better than ever. You

surely will enjoy the clinical & ward work when you come up to S.F. San Francisco
We're getting along O.K. in the house here. Have had some interesting clinics, talks and smokers already, and really everything is humming. Wish you could be here to be in with the bunch.
The Fed. Board Vocational Office is fixing things up O.K. so no need to bother any more about that.
So long, old man, & let us know if you get Aub. Fraternally,
Ted Lawson (over) [underlined]

Say hello to Roger MacKenzie for Woodley Stellar & me & tell him we sure wish that he were here with us. Get him on Aub's. track too. Between you two you ought to land him.
Ted.
