Heard there was a big air battle in France with the RAF
attacking the Reds. Must have been a hell of a fight. I missed the radio
broadcast by Murrow. Sure wish there was a way to record stuff so you could
hear it later. I guess I’ll have to wait for the paper tomorrow to find out what
exactly happened. The regular broadcasts news sure doesn’t give much
information. All they seem to want to do is to sell soap or something instead
of informing us what is going on. You’d think we aren’t even in a war the way
the big new outfits are acting. It’s like they want us to forget and just
ignore it.
Caught a glimpse of Johnny playing ball with the other kids.
Those were the days when all you had to worry about was covering the hole
between first and second. I remember tossing the bat to determine who would
pick first. One guy throws it to the other and then they take turns gripping
the bat hand over hand until you reach the top…and no pinkies. In our games we
always picked Jackie before Eddie. Jackie was a much better thrower. Heard she
won some contest the high school and still holds the girls record to this day
for longest thrown. I had a mighty big crush on her. I wonder where Jackie is
today?
