Content and physical description
ContentVítězslava Kaprálová is still unsuccessfully looking for an apartment and is struggling with a lack of finances. There are no practical courses at the Sorbonne now, so she may have to go to the Alliance française. She usually sees Bohuslav Martinů for coffee in the afternoon. He helps her as much as he can. If it weren't for him, she'd be "here like a stake in the fence". On Sunday she was with BM and Viktor Kripner in Dôme, before that she saw Věrka [Uhlířová], who is dating the parish priest [Alexander] Šímovec. She is to compose music for the Čapek memorial evening.
