By Betty Lynn Wilson Sunday, Jan. 4; Arrived back at school about 7:30 with ambitions for an industrious 18 days.

Just realized that two weeks from to morrow is reading day and you know what tjiat means. Heard from Lee this a.m. . . . Want to see “Above and Beyond.” Thursday, Jan. 8: Did manage to get caught up on hygiene reports, but the text book was too heavy. Anyway, I’ve ac complished one thing today—hy giene.

Sunday, Jan. 11: Went to church this a.m. and movie this p.m. “Snows of Kilim- anjara.” . . . Was a disappointment, but I loved it.

Wednesday, Jan. 14: What can be wrong with me? 1 realize every day that exams are getting nearer and I don’t do a thing about it! Went to hear a Fred Waring group tonight. En joyed it thoroughly, but got home and couldn’t sleep . . . Kept seeing Blue Books. Thursday, Jan. IS: I guess you realize the situation as it now stands.
