August 20, 1940 from Bill

                                                                         Tuesday

Hu-wo--
     This week is going by pretty fast - but it is still too slow - I just keep telling myself only four more days and then I'll see Dotty again - oh happy day -- or do you think I'm silly -
     Anyway have been keeping myself occupied in very good shape - Mr. Couch was in today for exactly one-half of one hour - and then back to the Tualitin - I am going to fool him tomorrow - about 3:30 I am going to leave the office and take a whole stack of work out to him and really get something accomplished - oh yes, I am also going to bring along my swimming trunks - Mr. Couch suggested that part himself so my conscience won't bother me a bit -
     I get a bang out of you not being able to sleep after drinking cokes - Right now I am making a mental note to see that you drink a whole bunch of cokes Saturday nite - After all I never have kept you up late yet so this might be a good time to start I hope - maybe there will be a half-moon left or something -
     Tell Tony he better start practicing if he wants to beat me, on account of I am hot - seriously though if you see him, congratulate him for me will you and extend to him in a nice way my challenge for next Sunday morning -  He may be champ of 11th st but I still hold the Alder St. Active Club honors - ex-officio of course -
     My cold is all gone and I am once more back to normal -
     Anet called today and wanted me to go out to Jantzen to the Oregon picnic but I just couldn't see it - Didn't feel in the mood and besides I am really watching the budget - wow, is it going to be close for a while -
Hint:  It's very very nice getting a letter from you every day -
                                                        With love,
                                                                 Bill
PS: How about Von's date?
