Howdy to Gung Noka, Chick, 6/23/40
and Snookie: It's a rainy night so I will write a few lines. Had a fairly good week, and it looks like we might be here all summer, as everybody tells us things will start booming in a week or so. Our program is going over big on WABI. Boy, it feels good to sleep in the morning. Whoopee-ee-ee! I think we'll let our advance booker go, as I can book them better myself. The country is beautiful up around here. Tell all the friends, HOWDY.
Simmie
