I sat around in my kimono until about ten this morning, then Mrs. Cavander came to look over the house and I did some quick dressing. After she left Mom and I went out to do some shopping. We went to Domingo’s, to a Japanese store, and to the hat store. I got another album and some writing paper. I saw some things I resolved to buy. Then we went down after Pop. After lunch I did various things around my desk like pasting my Bagio pictures in my new album. Helen called me up at three and told me that they would be around for me at three twenty. At three thirty they came after me to take me to see the “nomads sports”. We would call it a track meet. The Englishmen have these “sports” every year and a big cup is awarded to the winner. Alex Tyre won it the last two years but a Mr. Clelwrd got it this year. They had a tea dance after the affair and there awarded the cups and prizes. The big cup was filled with champaign and we all had a sip out of it. Helen and Mrs. Miller both left early so for part of the time I had five Britishers to myself. We got home about eight fifteen. Mom said Mrs. Morton told her that Charlie was coming out again.
Jane's Notes: In the scrapbook there is a program from this event. The note with it says: I went with Helen Miller. Afterwards there was a tea dance. Towards the last part I was alone with five Englishmen. Quite a experience. Eh! What!”
