Cleaned a little before I got ready to go to game. Mr. Wood went on to Granville. Helen stopped to see some people she met this summer. Had to stand at the game. Among the band. Fun. Good game too. Not too easy but we won 19-7. Got Sundae after game. Mary Burtch tried to fix my hair a new way after supper.

Toasted in the New Year with Jordans, Hutchmans & Kathi’s friends, Ken & Linda Rudy.

Watched the Rose Bowl parade. Dave & Kathi sledding in woods.

Tried to interest Kathi in 1870 letters that Grandpa E.M. Sheneman wrote to Lucy Hildreth but she wanted to watch T.V.

Mother in MGH with gall bladder attack. Took her yesterday — very unhappy there.

Dear me I made my dummy an inch longer than the printer counted for so— shorthand 15 word test and Mr Sipe sure had it in for me. Eighth period Miss Foreman sent me to clean out cuts and by time my Herald finally appeared I was so nervous. Even helped deliver it. After choir practice Helen and I got a coke at Tenders. Found that Miss Arth has a new son.

Getting some of my proof run off. Galleys were all set up though so I didn’t have all the material for the dummy. Had to miss G.R. party because of Herald work. Bernard Brooks came down in the evening to help me make my dummy up. Had fun while working. He told some Buerce stories Brrrr.

Can’t get my typing for Herald done but otherwise coming okay. Correcting copy now. Helen and Mary came up to Herald office after school where I was working. Helen and I decided to change blouses so we did. Behind locked doors. Mary came down for all night. Typed for me and was a general help.

More attention first period. Forgot about Guild meeting and had to telephone mother to fix something. My dress is getting made. Pretty good Guild meeting. I was so tired I had to keep going to keep going. Drew for “Black-eyed Susan” sisters.

Rained again so we have no wiener roast again. Had lots of fun first period. I never was anybody before. Worked 8th period on the Herald too. Spent an hour buying me a green wool dress to make. Colleen came over to see about Guild program books. Studied Herald.

Sunday school and Sunday dinner here with Aunt Sylvia’s. Went to Gilmore’s with Mary Burtch and Helen to see Dick’s pictures. One was supposed to look like me. At Mary’s for supper. Came home after B.Y. to study

Went to Springs for groceries with Helen and then came home. Gave her a bouquet. Mother, Mary and I went up town in pm. Got Mary a dress and probably would have gotten one if it hadn’t been for my getting sick. Aunt Sylvia and Perry and Wilda came about 5. We went up town in evening and I got a green hat. Had popcorn and apples.
