June 25. Flew to Madison Wisc. to spend the night with Fran and her wife and two little daughters who are always glad to see their "Aunt" Virginia especially when she brings them little presents. Lots of rain clouds around and airport was "socked in" so we circled 11⁄2 hours trying to land and finally was met by Fran in a pouring rain. We checked out a lot of FPE problems and solved a few I hope.

June 26. Very pleasant visit with Jeri 49-K-1 FPE who has con- tributed many interesting stories to TVia and who also does the lit- erature survey in the Femme Forum. Lively discussion of world prob- lems. That evening we all went out to dinner and I ordered a “Mar- garita easy on the rum" but bartender forgot the easy and it really hit me. I'd of been a dizzy blonde except that I'm brunette.

June 27. Flew to Chicago and met by Gisele 13-J-2 FPE who was our cover girl back on No. 32. Went to beauty shop for a hair do so I'd look O.K. on The Kup Show next day and spent the evening with a couple doing some more counseling.

June 28. Did the show on WMAQ and among other guests was Philip Langnor whose father, Louis, wrote the fascinating book, “The Importance of Wearing Clothes." He told me afterward that he agreed very much with various things I had said about our society, its polorization and TV etc. A good contact to have made. Leslie Ug- gams also one of the guests very charming girl. After visiting several bookstores in Chicago we had a meeting with the Chi Chapter of FPE till about 10:30 and then had to leave to do the Marty Faye Show on WCIU. Got back to the group in time to watch the Kup Show which we had taped earlier in the day.

June 29. Flew to N.Y. and transferred to the International termi- nal. One of the members of Alpha in L.A. had decided to accompany me so he flew in from L.A. that same day and we met at the KLM counter, got checked in and had dinner with about 3 hours to kill till plane time. Sure were a pile of people going to Europe by all sorts of airlines. You could hardly get around in the terminal. But at last plane time came and we went out to it. It was one of those stretched Douglas planes and was it ever long—all the way from nose to tail yet!

June 30. Flight over was uneventful and we landed in Amsterdam and were met according to plan and taken to hotel. As woon as we were registered we got a taxi to the RR station and took off for The Hague to have a conference with the editors of "SEXTANT" the pub- lication of the Dutch Society for Sexual Reform. This is a large orga-
