    To answer the question in your Christmas note, I seem to have no power with the academic people, tho' I know several ^college teachers who do, for instance, like "Pippins & Cheese" but don't seem helpful on promoting it.   I wrote a plugging letter to some Ohio colleges offering P & C at a low price for classwork, but am doubtful of the results.  Will be out in Ohio week after next & ask the Peninsula Library whether they sold any on that basis.
    This "New Year's card" is largesse from a guy-friend of a friend - who became a Falstaff fan overnight when I sent him the book in thanks for several pictures at Christmas.

   It's fine about "The Disinherited" in paperback.
   Oh, did you ask me how P & C had sold.  About 360 by
