Four people now know my secret love, three besides Comstock. Anne Prince - she guessed through our notes in class. Eddie Huhn - I let it slip a couple of times & had to take him into confidence. And Eck - a mistake.

1. When going up to Latin between classes I was being shoved along by the crowd and got pushed near Dolores who was at the drinking fountain. I was kind of facing away from her. She jabbed me in the side, laughing. "What's this?" I said and jabbed her back.

2. I said hi to her a couple of other times.

3. Anne Prince told me in a note that Dolores asked if she knew who my secret love was and if it was her (Anne). I read the note while walking home from school in the warmish air (the warmest day since last fall) and, God, it made me feel so wonderful. No lie.

Today I was helping Ken Moore get fixed up with a frosh pie he thinks is sharp - Peggy Neutzling. Of course I've been helping! I hope he really goes all ape for her. However, he said he thought he'd still date Dolores. Shit. Oh well, what the hell. I can still pull it off. I've got the same confidence I had with Jane last June, only more, and with her it took me a few months but I did it. I hope this time it doesn't come to such a bad end, though.
