Are you delighted to be going to Sand? I knew 
it would please you. Make your reservations to leave 
Kure on the 1st and Midway on the 2nd. Dr. Ely will 
arrange for you to go on to Sind. Enclosed is a copy 
of your itinerary. Tell Bill 1*11 send him a summary 
of changes soon. 
Too had you are leaving though, I have been •_ 
practicing to fit Bill’s request for a Heavy Duty Women— 
hut I don’t think I can make it by the end of September*
