Letter is decorated with hearts which Sylvia says are her first installment on Valentine's Day. She tried sending him the New York Times, but it keeps coming back to her. Also, talks about the new found freedom that women now have. She mentions that when she is out with the girls, she does not "have to rush home immediately." But for her, things can be adjusted easily because she would prefer to rush home but for others, "it may become a habit- not easily broken." Went over to the Selective Service Board after dinner.
