(See page 216. The object was a memo slip from the Jewish Community Center in Elmira; from the desk of Gladys H. Austin, secretary to the Center’s director, Mr. Miller. It is printed in a dark chocolate brown on rather bright orange brown paper. It was folded once horizontally in the double envelopes, as indicated, although there were also vertical fold marks in it.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(On Friday, November 4, Jane called about a job teaching nursery school at the JCC. She was given an appointment with Mr. Miller for Tuesday, November 8, by Gladys Austin. On November 8, Gladys wrote out the memo slip used as object, bearing the name of Mrs. Methinitus, another teacher with whom Jane would work. The name is written in ordinary black pencil. Jane met Nancy Methinitus on Wednesday, November 9, and began teaching Monday, November 14 at the JCC. Sometime after Gladys Austin wrote out the memo slip on Nov. 8, the folded slip found its way into my jacket pocket.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(“A capital G.” See the copy of the object on page 216. The name Gladys H. Austin is seen in the upper right-hand corner of the memo slip; in capitals.

(“I am reaching for a word that sounds like grow, or Gomez.” Jane said that here she thought of Gomez Addams, a character in the Addams Family TV program—and that the similarity lay in the initials G A, for both Gomez Addams and Gladys Austin.

(I think it possible this data came to mind because of the phonetic or sibilant similarity between the names Gladys and Gomez.

(“Green.” Jane said that strange as it seems, green reminds her of lettuce, and lettuce in turn reminds her of Gladys Austin, whose name appears on the object. Jane doesn’t know why, but when she met Gladys for the first time she thought of lettuce. Jane considered the possibilities in rhyme, since she is a poet: Gladys, lettuce, etc., as perhaps calling up such an association.

(“Alienate. Things separate from another. A going apart. Something by proxy.” Jane thought all this data an attempt to get at the name Gladys Austin on the memo used as object. Gladys, as Mr. Miller’s secretary, served as a go-between, Jane said, between Jane, Nancy Methinitus, and Mr.Miller. It was Gladys who finally informed Jane she had the job at the JCC, for instance.

(“Music or Muzak.” Music is involved in Jane’s job at the JCC. In the downstairs playroom at the JCC, Jane and Nancy play a record player for their young charges, which is similar to the Musak recorded sound system. On a Friday afternoon Jane and Nancy took the class to an upstairs room at the JCC, where Nancy played the piano. This room was next door to the office of Gladys Austin who came in to listen.

[... 4 paragraphs ...]

(“Connection with a grocery, and vegetables.” Again, possibly a reference to the lettuce/Gladys association on Jane’s part. Also, on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, November 24, Thursday, Nancy called Jane and asked her to bring some vegetables to class for a special project. Jane forgot to buy the vegetables hence her memory of the incident. Nancy’s name appears on the object.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(“A circumstance with unknown ending.” Jane said this is represented quite well by the object. When Gladys gave Jane the memo bearing Mrs. Methinitus’s name on November 8, arrangements were made for Jane to sit in on a class the next day, and to thus meet Nancy M., etc. Naturally Jane wondered how things would work out, etc., which bears on the next data also: “Someone wonders how something will come out.” Jane discovered that she and Nancy were very compatible.

[... 3 paragraphs ...]

(“A note and a sender who is not feeling well.” This is very good data. The note refers to the memo page used as object. It was written by Gladys Austin on November 8, at a time when she was not feeling well. She described this to Jane in some detail, explaining that the JCC had been so busy recently that the staff had been working weekends also. Jane remembers that Gladys also worked the weekend following—November 12-13, and then took Monday, November 14, off because of fatigue.

(“A mid-thirty connection here, or three five perhaps.” See page 216. Mrs. [Nancy] Methinitus, whose name appears on the object, is in her thirties, and quite possibly 35 years old. Gladys Austin is about 45 according to Jane.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(At this time Jane cannot recall if Gladys Austin’s memo pad is part of such a calendar arrangement. She remembers a lot of papers on Gladys Austin’s desk, with the memo pad among them, but paid no particular attention to it.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(“A bill.” Jane believes this data is connected with the three-dollar data to come below. A bill here refers to art supplies Jane picked up on the way to work at the JCC one day, and charged to the JCC. Gladys Austin, whose name is on the object, makes out the checks to pay bills.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(“Stringy or to do with string.” Possibly, according to Jane, a reference to her borrowing string from Gladys Austin one class day at the JCC. The class members were to string Cheerios to make necklaces, etc., but the string was too flimsy and deteriorated too easily; knots couldn’t be tied in it, etc.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(The items, paste, scissors, etc., for the class came to about three dollars, and were charged to the JCC. Thus Gladys Austin, whose name is on the object is connected with this data, since she makes out checks to pay bills for the JCC, etc.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(“Something that is mine, and to do with a group accomplishment. A calendar date.” This is good data. In the sense that Seth and Jane stem from the same entity, as explained in certain sessions, the object would be Jane’s. Gladys Austin gave it to her.

[... 1 paragraph ...]

(The calendar data would be another reference to the memo pad and calendar idea explained earlier. In a more literal interpretation, as explained Gladys Austin wrote the memo to Jane on November 8, with the specific intention that Jane would meet Nancy Methinitus on November 9. This she did. See page 216.

[... 2 paragraphs ...]

(2nd Question: Can you elaborate on the capital G? “No. Ruburt now thinks of Grumbacher.” See the data on page 221. It is stated there that the capital G refers to the name on the memo pad used as object, Gladys H. Austin, etc.

[... 8 paragraphs ...]
