I would eppreciete a lot anything you can do for Ann. Your suggestion about working through the boys is right, I know, and more can be accomplished thus than anyother way. If you aren't successful there is no harfrdone and if you are, I shall be very thankful. I believe I can see that Ann is going to meke it all right anyhowe She is showing a lot of interest in school and school activities and I am certain that if she gets through this first semester without being discouraged she will make it in a splendid waye She will get interested in this journalism course that she is taking to the extent that she won't care whether she belongs to the sorority or note I know how she performed in highschool as editor of the school paper and if she has any success at all in that line at the University, everything will go rosy with her. I want you to know I appreciate your thoughts and your desire to be of help. With best regards, I am Cordially yours, GEN: OM
