Dear Mom and Dad, Tues. the 11th approx. 10am. [Jan. 1972]
We just got our room cleaned. It looks real nice. Today is the day to get clean sheets, pillowcase, and towels too. I put new bulbs in my desk light this morning. I told Mr. Ackerman (assistant to Mr. Eddinger) downstairs about my desk light yesterday, but I told him the wrong room. I've been away from school long enough so that any facts about school life have faded away. When I tried to think of my room number, 323 came to my memory. I went down this morning to correct my mistake. I went to see Ackerman, but he had already given

a slip of paper to the janitor with 323 on it. I found the janitor and he helped me out. He gave me a couple bulbs and told me to tell him if it was any thing else. It must have been the bulbs, because the light's really bright now. When I first put the bulbs in though, the front bulb flickered a little until I repositioned it.
I went to see Mr. Eddinger's secretary yesterday because my new class schedule conflicts with my old work schedule. I checked with his secretary today and she says that he says I can work all day Thursday instead of Tuesday afternoon. I went downtown to the Penna. Tax office today. They say they can help me as soon

as they get their state forms. The man the helped me said to bring my W-2 forms and Md. and Federal forms in as soon as I get them. and he says he'll help me with them. I have to check with them first whether they have gotten the forms they need too. Please send my W-2 form when it comes from Zone Marking.
I'm sorry, Mom, I had to throw away one of the sandwiches, because I wasn't sure it would keep another day and I haven't been hungry enough to eat it.
I'll check on the deadline for renewal of financial aid this week. And

possibly I'll get the necessary forms while I'm at it (i.e. if they are available).
Spring recess begins Friday, March 3 at 2:00 pm. for me and officially at 5p.m. Classes resume at 8am. March 13.
Everybody in Psych 21 (Learning Experimental) gets a rat to take care of and to use in experiments.
It only took about 3 mins to inflate the top of my chair Sun. night and 3 mins last night to inflate the bottom.
I ran 4-5 miles yesterday afternoon plus I've walked downtown both today and yesterday. I intend to continue the running to be in shape for track.
I hope you had a nice stay at the Hielman's and a pleasant trip home and visit at Joan's.
Love, Mike
