Leeds Gulick made a trip to the Pacific Coast from Valley View, Phoenix, Arizona, where his sanitarium is located, and found Ray Bennett in Los Angeles last February. "Ray is the same cordial, big-hearted man he always was. He showed me much of the wonderful stock of jewelry in which he and his brother-in-law deal. Dartmouth men, particularly 1913ers, are assured of fine value in anything purchased through Ray." Leeds claims that we failed to mention the trip made by Marc and Frances Wright and their stop and visit with the Gulicks, but he will have to become a better reader of the class notes in the MAGAZINE. We wish more, or every one, would send in notes and news, for sometimes it is hard scratching to fill a column.
