Transcription Notes
Mrs Post called for us at 10.45 & drove us to see the site of the pageant. Here we met Gundlach, Le Beaune, Miss Tiernay Miss Anglin etc and had more or less heated conversations about stage etc, in the end reaching a compromise — suggested by Maud — that our scene should be an epilogue instead of a prologue. Then to lunch when Editor of Star phoned me about Mrs Hardcastle who was exciting the papers against me about her dancers whom I excluded for incompetence.1 Her interview appeared later and amused us, rather than frightened us! Saw Miss Bates’s students at 4 which were very good. Then after a quick dinner saw Miss Lancaster’s which were even better. After that Miss Martin’s which were quite good. Weather very lovely but hot and very muggy in the stuffy rooms. Now home again very hot sticky & tired & so to bed.Location
