John F. Zeller Papers
Well I finished my 1st week of Center School without any trouble. I've had "S" on all the tests - S and U are the only two grades. "S" for satisfactory and U for unsatisfactory. But next week and the two following it are still ahead and plenty tough. This is much worse than Law School -- mainly because they try to cram so much into such a short period.
When I finish in three weeks -- unless I have to repeat -- I may be able to get a 3 day pass and get home for 24hrs or so. On the other hand I many be shipped immediately to Fort Sill. In which case I won't be home before the end of March or the beginning of April. Since Mother & Dad were here -- it really doesn't matter much which way it turns out -- for very few of my friends are in Lewisburg anymore anyway - and I'd much rather go home with that gold bar on my shoulder.
Incidently, when I leave here, I go as a Corporal. So I'm due for a pay boost in another three weeks.
It was good to be with Mother + Dad last week-end. I suppose you've heard all about it by now. I only wish I could have seen all of you folks too. I'll be thinking of you all this Thursday and wishing we could be together for the day.
