in the afternoon our second team played B Company's 1st team in football. And we beat 'em too, 10-0. I play left end. It was a good game as you can see by the score. A fellow cant run very fast down here in the sand. It seems as tho down here a fellow's wind isn't nearly as good as it is up home. The sand and dust seem to affect your wind, here. We had a payday last Friday. As soon as we get out of quarantine I'm going uptown and get my picture taken.
