From your pard, John Jones. .92 V93 .5 1 , December lst, '09. Dear Bob:- E l've got about liiteen minutes before going to school so i i here goes. Our Thanksgiving game went oil line and we l beat by a score ol 11 to l0. This was my first public game in loot ball and l was almost as frightened when we started 5 X out as l was when lstarted to school here. But say, boy, Y 1 when we once got started it was great. l'm going to try lor the first team next year. l wouldnt have got to play but gi gg, l Dale was sick and I was sub for lull-back. Thanksgiving night the high school students entertained the loot ball boys and l took Mable B. It was really the first time l had ever taken an Attica girl any place and when l took her home l didnt know what to say. l couldnt think ol a thing except that blamed piece l learned out oi an etiquette book last year when l iirst started to Attica. l began on it. I never knew before how long it was and l plowed thro it and sweat, l know, worse than l ever did before. l couldnit think oi a thing to leave out so l went on to the end. Mable looked surprised at iirst, then she turned her head away, then she picked up a piece oi paper oil the porch and twisted it and when l got done she said something and hiked into the house and l'm sure I heard her giggle. l reckon l made a tool ot myseli. I'll know better the next time it l ever have the lace to ask her any place again. Did you ever do such lierce things? Here you are a sophmore in college. lsn't it great? l'm going to start to some college as soon as l get thro here. Well, so long. John.
