DescriptionOne letter addressed to Molly from Yuri. The envelope is dated February 1943.;Dear Molly:
So sorry I forgot to write the return address. Apologies accepted?
School-School! I'm goin' nuts with studies and social activities. Have homework every night. I'll be glad the day I graduate. Will I even though?
In school, I'm taking Philosophy, Social Problems, English Literature, Business English and General Arts. I hope I don't have to take Phys. Ed. The weather is pretty bad you know.
Gee-shoe rationing is driving me nuts. Every month I used to buy shoes whether they were worn or not, now I can't even smell a shoe. I wear shoes out ?? because we as a lot of jivery. Darn it!
I heard from June lately? If you write to her, please tell her to write to me. I haven't heard from her in a long time. I'm sort of busy so I can't drop her a line at the present time.
By the way, how do you like the song, "Moonlight Mood," "I've Heard That Song Before," "Black Magic" ? Pretty uh? "Moonlight Mood" drives me nuts. It's really lovely. I'll say the same for the others.
Well-study hard and keep out of trouble and you're hear from me soon. So long.

Love,
Yuri
