V-Mail. Sylvia rushed after dinner to N.Y. Union Headquarters, only to find that she had gone on the wrong night. So she dashed over to the movies with Ben and Mad [sister and her boyfriend]. Says another week has slipped away; but February 22nd [Washington's Birthday] is coming up and a holiday will help.
