my Uncle Saul and Aunt Gertie held a reception for me in their living room, as we no longer have the space in are much smaller apartment for a gathering of any size. Our former apartment would have been ample, but times have changed. And hence Uncle Sahlin and Gurney's apartment on 32nd Street. I made the rounds receiving the well wishes from my relatives. Polite handshakes from uncle's diminutive kisses from aunts, silent adoration from younger cousins. What's this? My Uncle Saul asked me. My tassel suma *** laude. E. I said, That's a Nana, my aunt Gertie explained to him. What about this? She asked. A stole, I said, lifting the light blue satin with my fingers. You mean you stole it? Uncle Saul joked. It's for being the school of journalism's top graduate. I said, Oh, did you hear that soul on these? Says the top graduate. You must be a pretty smacked cookie, he said. I opened my mouth to reply, and and Gertie spoke instead. Miriam, may I have a word with you a moment. She took me by the arm and led me aside. Tell me, Miriam, are you still seeing that Glickstein boy. It wasn't what I wanted to talk about. I wanted to talk about the newspaper business and current events and Roosevelt's reelection chances in the fall. Hitler's violation of the Treaty of Versailles, anything that was big and important. But I answered her question instead. Yes, I said, He is off on business. Albany, I think, to bed. He had to miss your big day. Too bad. All right, but anyway, it was my day, not hiss.
