It was also nice seeing Rex again. Just love the city of Monterey. It’s so beautiful—wow!!!…Guess who were my most ardent fans? The Photographers and ushers, ha!—Jimmy Lyons & ‘Dizzy’ are real fine people. Dont [sic] forget about the clothes for Belcanto. Have to raise money immediately.” In fine condition.
