(I have indicated the highlights of both sides of the object by typewriter; actually it was printed in two columns, instead of the one I have indicated. Jane saw the object about three weeks ago when she was sorting out some papers. I picked this item after finding it lost among some newspapers, and about to be thrown out. I placed it between the usual two pieces of Bristol, then sealed it in the regular double envelopes.

(Seth talked about mental enzymes in the very early sessions almost three years ago now. See Volume One of The Early Sessions.)

(As stated, the object is an article taken from The Saratogian of September 1950. Jane wrote it, since she had a part-time job with the newspaper while attending Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York. The object concerns the election of Jane as president of the Day Students Council in her junior year, and the photo at the top of the article shows Jane and the other three female members of the council. They wear the “uniform" in style then—blue jeans.

(The typing below the photo and on the back sums up the content of the news stories on the object. Jane last saw the object about three weeks ago, but did not know it was in my possession particularly, when I decided to use it as an object. I folded it once as indicated on page 168 before inserting it in the usual double envelopes.

(“A connection with many small colored squares. This reminding Ruburt however of your op painting.” As stated, Jane had images of small colored squares. We cannot connect them with the object however; although it is easy to connect them with my optical painting of last year, which hangs here in the apartment. The painting is made up of many three-quarter-inch squares of brilliant color.

(“Something going around.” Possibly the same three interpretations can apply here, as for circumvention.
