12-14-73 Dear Betty - Many many thanks for a most enjoyable evening, & a underline delicious /underline meal (which you didn't eat enuff [sic]- of).

Anyway, here's a check for Jack's talk at Old Town. I'll mention you mentioned it to me ^ as a possibility

when I write him from Phoenix*, as well as send him a $100 check from underline December /underline - as he is a writer for it - for which you owe me $100. somehow, if Jay Nash pays me, I wind up no loser. Just you

& him.
 Meanwhile, all I can think of for him to stay is at Jorg's. when I get back from Arizona I'll inquire. who the

hell is "Fred." Thanks again, Salud, Curt

Looking forward to the 1st. Hope Fujii? called & came up w/ something.
