Dear J.C. --

  Blake is M.C. of the Xmas Cantata each year.  Why don't you fly down for an Xmas vacation and dig this program?  While there we could sign all the ? at Arthurs to contracts.
   That Xmas chorale by J. S. Balch [sic] should read "Break forth O Beauteous Heavenly Blake."
   Very much of a drag down here this year.  Have been plauged [sic] by some furies from E. St. Louis, dating back to the old Valley days. 

yrs. Bud.
