DEAR JACK:

   THE underlined:  VOICE REJECTED ALL BOOK REVIEWS DONE BY STAFF.  SENT IT TO "SHAG'S" FRIEND, HELEN DEBERRY AT McCALLS, WHO HAD MY ARTICLE.   CALLED HER TODAY AND WAS TOLD SHE'S NO LONGER THERE.  THEY SAID THEY'D LET ME KNOW.  "LIFE IS FRAUGHT WITH IMMINENT PERIL"!
   I AM AT WORK ON MY NOVEL, "THE FRIGHTENED MAN."  IT IS 90º  BUT MIGHT RAIN TONIGHT.  BEEN WITHOUT A DRINK FOR A WEEK.  AS THE GUY SAID "THE TROUBLE WITH NOT DRINKING IS THAT WHEN YOU GET UP IN THE MORNING, THAT'S AS GOOD AS YOU'LL FEEL ALL DAY."

ALORS, Frank

LOVE TO GLADYS.
