"Post office" by Long Distance. Betty Adams (above), 18, thinks she has an answer to her fiancé's complaints that her letters are too short: An epistle 36 feet long and weighing five pounds. She finishes it today and it's going off to Donald W. Jackson, 21, of Denver, a fireman aboard the U.S.S. Wisconsin at Portsmouth, Va. Betty typed the letter on shelf-lining paper and pasted on it photos, clippings, razor blades, sticks of gum and other knick-knacks.
