“l moved last Thursday to the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Emerito Ra-
mos - or should I say ‘hotel’. They
are multi-millionaires and my priv-
ate room and bath is what you might
expect of the Waldorf Astoria, air
conditioning and all. There is a
swimming pool adjacent to my
room but I haven't been in it yet
because it is alwayg raining. There
are eight children in the family,
four of whom are married, and
twelve grandchildren, Most of them
live in this house and they are
all very friendly and a lot of fun.
The home overlooks the whole Mari-
quira Valley and the hillside is ter-
raced with gardens and orchards.
One son-in-law is a farmer and
raises pigs and vegetables, so I
look forward to visiting the farm
soon. This weekend I am going to
Baguio with one of the sons-in-
law and two of his friends. This
promises to be an exciting month.
The weekend after next, I leave
about Thursday for Nueva Ecija to
visit friends there and to attend a
barrio fiesta, ‘Carlos, Mannie, and
the others will be there, too, and |
we have one good friend who be- |
longs out there where he works for
the President’ Aid for Community
Development, a government; project.
Don’t worry about me missing
too much school and flunking sub-
jects. My Spanish. marks are good |
and Miss Antonio wants me to]
skip the next course and go on!
to the fourth session. Of course,
help I couldn't be doing so well
She is a really dedicated teacher.

September 8
“The second semester is officially
over today and I had my Spanish
standardized test this morning and
my Speech test yesterday. The pres-
sure is off now until Monday when
the third term begins. Although I
have never studied under the col-
lege semester system which we have
at home, I think I would prefer this
term system or a modification of
it. It is bad enough trying to con-
cuntrate on two subjects at once,
let alone five.
T just finishing reading The Art
of Loving, by Erich Fromm, a very
good book, which inspired me so
that I am now reading The Sane
Society, by the same author. I be-
lieve I'm really getting somewhere.
Last weekend I went with the
son-in-law Rudy and two of his
ular resort city in the mountains
of northern Luzon. We lived in a
secluded cottage and cooked our-
selves a dinner of three chickens
one night. Rudy is a real good cook,
although we ended up eating some
of the chicken almost raw. We
also had a meal of snails and a
bowl of chopped pig's intestines
in blood, among other things. All
was very delicious. ;
1 bought a ‘G’ string, which is a
sort of breach cloth worn by the
male population of Baguio. Some-
times the men wear white shirts,
ties, sport coats and “G” strings.
Redlly a sight! The trip home Sun-
day afternoon was thrilling as we
wound down a narrow switchback
road which revealed a view one
might expect to see in Switzerland.
Beautiful!
Tonight I'm going to Los Banos,
the agricultural branch of the Univ-
ersity of the Philippines, tolattend
an International Night. I have a
good friend there from Ceylon, so
I'll see him and have a chance to
talk to many people. Tomorrow
morning some of us are going to
Hari’s Sikh Temple. He and I spent
all yesterday afternoon talking a-
bout ‘life’ and find that we agree
about many things. We have really |
become close friends.
« *Miss Antonio, who is in charge
of the Spanish department of U.P.
would like to go to the States some-
time. I wish she could go to our
area and set up a Spanish depart-
ment in our new high school. Since
Mandarin, English, Hindi, and
Spanish are the four languages
spoken by the greatest number of
people in the world, it seems a
shame that we don't have Span-
would like to make impossible?”
We would sure like to get it started.
Well, they cleaned out the swim-
ming pool yesterday to get it ready
for Sunday afternoon when there
will be a big barbecue here, so I'll
probably take a swim or two this
weekend. I'll miss some of the
barbecue because I'm going to the
home of Mr. Dennett Howe for din-
ner. He is general manager of the
Philippine Manufacturing Co., the
friend of Dean Wilson. (Amherst)
Last night I had some delicious
ice cream made from caribao milk
when I was out with the de la
Ramas family:
Oct. 8
Here I am in my new home and
I like it very much. Mr. and Mrs.
Enriquez are very thoughtful hosts.
They are owners of the D & E Res-
taurant in Quezon City. Mr. Enri-
quez wants to check his dining car
that goes to Legaspi near the
southern tip of Luzon, so I am to
go with him and visit the Rotary
Club there and see the famous
Mayon Volcano, which is supposed
to be a perfect cone. The trip will
take Wednesday, Thursday, and
Friday of this week. My ’ate’ (older
sister) Linda is very nice and en-
gaged to a doctor.
Yesterday I went, swimming in
the ocean at Matabungkay Beach in
Batanga with the Enriquez’ only
son and a friend of his. It sure felt
good—the water was almost too
warm. Saw some lovely views at
Tagaytay as we went through there.
Hope you can find some of these
places on a map.
Because the family only eats
breakfast at home, I eat lunch and
{ dinner usually at the restaurant.
I get a chance to sample all kinds
of dishes, which is fun.
The weather has been both rainy
and sunny lately, but it can always
be referred. to as sticky. When the
sun is out you can walk a block
and be dripping wet with perspira-
tion. The hottest time of year is
said to be March and April, also
the driest.
I was so delighted to hear we
beat Lehman that I sat right down
and wrote a note to the coach and
his boys. I sure miss football. Hope
you have the pleasant memory of
beating Forty Fort by now. The
Dallas Post is finally reaching me
and I'm sure glad to have it.
The semester is over on October
26th and I plan to spend the two
weeks vacation in Mindanao. The
Zamboanga Rotary Club is expect-
ing me and I hope to visit others,
too, and to see something of the
Moro life down there. It may all
fall through because I still am not
sure of my passage by boat. I'll
be on my own and make plans as
I go along, bacause I have no idea
what to expect down there. Tl
let you know what happens.
Don’t be surprised if you receive
some samples of Filipino handcraft
to appraise. We've been out to a
barrio the past two Sundays, en-
joying ourselves and meeting with
the youth leaders and the barrio
council to plan some work projects.
What a wonderful experience all
of this is! :
The actual distance between
places here is not so great, but the
poor roads make traveling a tiring
process. Recently I visited the
Rotary Club of Tarlac and spoke at
their meeting. It really isn’t very
far (less than 100 miles) but it
took hours to get there. I enjoyed
my stay there. The Rotarians show-
ed me one of the biggest sugar cane
plantations and mills in the world.
40,000 tons of sugar every year.
Also toured ome of the five Philip-
pine Pepsi Cola plants. The manager
of the plant, who is originally from
Brooklyn but has become Filipino
clear through, answered all my
questions about the soft drink in-
dustry. All soft drinks here are
only ten centavos (about three
cents), due to cheap labor and
plentiful supply of sugar. Filipinos
consume over 40,000,000 cases of
v
the best Chinese food. It was cer-
tainly good. =
Right now I just finished a glass
of fresh papaya nectar, Papaya
grows all over the place. Bananas,
too, grow wild. They are smaller
than the ones we have, but of
course much tastier.
Guess everything in the gardens
is good and dead by mow. How
peculiar to think of furnace fires
in your houses—does it really get
that cool? A year or so ago the
temperature dropped to 60 here—
most unusual — and the papers
headlined “Cold Wave Hits Manila.”

Oct. 14
This novel life of practically liv-
ing at a restaurant is proving to be
very interesting. It affords a good
opportunity to talk with and study
many different types of people who
patronize the place. Mannie Guzman
went to church with me at the
Knox Memorial Church in Manila
this morning, after which we went
to the restaurant where someone
from Los Banos came in for dinner
ish, especially when it is spoken in
almost all the other countries in
the western hemisphere.

on the weather should be sunny,

After lunch I went to Ramoses
for a visit with Mrs. Ramos. She is
really going to the States in No-
vember and will definitely visit you
in Shavertown. 1 tried to get her
to leave here sooner, while it is still
beautiful in Penna., but she cannot
