Written at 3:15 PM on a History Sheet from City of New York Department of Welfare. Sylvia claims it is very hot weather. Went to buy food for the luncheon tomorrow. Wishes she could go to the beach instead of the lunch, but will raise needed money. Asks him how his weather is. Maybe, weather-wise it would be best for him to stay there in Oregon.
