Theodore Roosevelt agrees with Archibald Roosevelt regarding the Porcellian elections. He suggests not discussing the matter with anyone until the end of the year and then they will have a “war talk” if Archibald decides to enter another club. Roosevelt will be attending a Harvard Overseers meeting on January 9. There will be plenty of room at Sagamore Hill for Archibald and any friends he wants to bring on New Year’s Day. Roosevelt has been hired to write for Metropolitan Magazine.
