November 30, 1932 - Wednesday

I seem to have done nothing but study the past few days. I went up to the library today after my one o’clock and then we had faculty to dinner and after they had left I went up the library again.

This month has been rather stormy for me within the house. But I don’t think there will be another rupture. There has been some happy and exciting days too so all in all it’s a pretty good balance. 

November 29, 1932 - Tuesday

This morning after my class I went up to the library and then I went up to the library again after lunch. I saw Chuck Thomas up there again. He and George came over tonight. He brought me a Coolie Coat!

November 28, 1932 - Monday

This afternoon after my one o’clock I went up to the library until about five. Doris Gram, our district governor, is here. Model Chapter Meeting. Afterwards went to the library again. George came after me about 9:30.

Ann's letter to Mrs. Hibbard:

Dear Mrs. Hibbard,

That was the most wonderful Thanksgiving dinner I have had in years. I don’t know when I have had such a huge delicious slice of turkey breast. The whole dinner was just heavenly. I want to thank you for being so kind to me and for always making me so welcome. I want to thank Mr. Hibbard, too, for asking Margie Woodworth to dinner. I was certainly glad to see her again. She had a good time too and she likes you both so much.

We got back to Eugene about twenty to eleven Thursday night and got the bus out to the house and we got here before some of the people that had come in a car. There were a lot of people on the train going back to school and with everybody talking and feeling so good after Thanksgiving dinners, the time went very fast and it wasn’t a tedious ride at all.

It was very quiet here this weekend because so many people were gone for the whole weekend. The two quizzes I had on Friday were still enough to suit me. It’s a good thing that I got back because they were quizzes that I couldn’t have made up.

George and I are both very interested in a couple of books just now. George is reading, “Mutiny on the Bounty” and I am reading “Messer Marco Polo” by Don Burne and I just love it.

I may see you again before spring vacation. I am considering coming up to Portland for New Years.

Love, Ann

George's letter to his dad:

Dear Dad,

I will take the cup, V9334, and I will have you do the lettering up there. I do not know what it is consist of yet, but I shall find out at the meeting this evening and the information to a post script. After the whole etching has been completed, I will send you a check for the full amount. Thank you so much for getting the information on it. Dad.

The trip down here was not bad at all; at least it was better than riding in a cold automobile. I did all my studying on Friday and Saturday, and that left me all of Sunday with nothing to do. So I occupied it with reading a good book.

There is really nothing to tell in this letter, as I have not been back long enough for news to accumulate. Thank you again for the information about the cup, and give mother my love.

Love, Brother

P.S. These are the words that we wish to have engraved on the cup:

Dear Dad,

The deal is off until you hear further from me. Preble is here and he is going to see if some alumni will donate a cup to the cause. However, it is my belief that he will not be successful. If that is the case, I shall write you for the thing in a few days or possibly a week.

George.

November 27, 1932 - Sunday

The last of the Organ Recitals this term was today. I studied this morning at the house and from two to four thirty at the library. Then we went to Vespers. Later George came down to the house and we read again.
