Rumsey, Dexter C.
From "somewhere in the Pacific," Rumsey says it should be "Everywhere in the Pacific," and not "much 'dope'" due to censorship. The "greatest regret of a college man is losing touch with the lads he knew," in "this time of stress & strain & broken homes." He mentions many servicemen from San Diego State College and the new who have "taken the veil." If he can get back to San Diego he will "go whipping out El Cajon Blvd to State."
