expressed a desire to see me again. He seems like a pretty good gent. Certainly he possesses a fine pedigree in his Phi Kappa Psi membership!! On Wednesday I saw a pretty good musical starring Ilona Massey, who is one beautiful woman. If I am still at Quonset when my liberty day falls on Sunday I want to attend services at the Mother Church. Think it is quite likely that I shall get that chance. As for my income tax, Gus, I believe I would like to handle it this way, if it sounds ok to you. I'd like to send you the figures, have you compute the tax, file the report, and instead of paying the amount, put it into U.S. war bonds. I fear that I'll have to pay around $150 this year, and on a smaller income than last, too. Could avoid it entirely on the past twelve months salary if I were married, couldn' t I? Well, its an idea. $1314 -- total pay, as cadet and officer. __54 -- 1½ months pay as a seaman $1368 total. $500 -- personal exemption. 50 -- contribution to church, charity, etc -- -- earned income deduction __-- -- other? Hope you can make out from the above figures. Hardly flew at all the past week, bad weather keeping us down. Did get in one hour of gunnery in which I think I did better. However, the tow pilot dropped the sleeve in the drink, and we didn't get a look at it. Hope some results
