Finally, wet or not, started for Allens / and got there pretty bedraggled. Their 
maid pressed suit for me and so about time rain let up pretty much, around 2.00 p. 
I got out to Club to phone Russell. Learned that arrangements had been made 0.K, 
and that I would be notified in plenty of time to board ship. After phoning 
(the rain had stopped), I started for the commissary to get few socks (work socks) 
and who should pass in car but Cabanillas, who took me home, and of whom I 
asked advice re radio sonde. Said idea was O.K. 
Shortly afterward Dorothy came home and I went over to mail two letters 
and got ice cream. Talked over Ids. after dinner, and who should walk in but 
Jim Korner. 
Stamps wet and very gummy at night when we are cool and sleep under a 
sheet. Dry during day when our clothes get soaking wet with perspiration. 
J une 13, 19^2. 
After breakfast to Zetek’s, then walked to Panama RR. Sta. via near Tivoli 
by way of Ancon, then to Cathedral, and then home by way of street car tracks. 
Met P.L. Hurd and Brown. Former was with Mallard. Talked over old times. 
After walk, had lunch at Y. Went to Club to phone Robbie, but could not find 
her or school in directory. Saw Hurd again bowling, got shine, took shower, and 
wrote Alvina note. 
Clear and sunny today, nice breeze, very comfortable. Yesterday rain, but 
otherwise no trouble with weather at all, this week June 9-13? 1942. Allens 
both got off at 4.00 p.m.; fooled around until dinner time taking life easy. 
Went to Balboa. Sat around until 10.00 tith newspaper and book and phonograph.
