Don Williams mailed me his copy of the book on "Nathaniel Leverone Pioneer in Automatic Merchandising" by Gladys Zehnpfrening published in 1963 by T. S. Denison and Co., Inc., Minneapolis. Don and Nate were roommates in old Sanborn Hall you may recall. I have just completed reading it and recommend it to all Dartmouth men. It is exceedingly interesting and has many constructive ideas and methods for one's future success in life.
