From his odd idea of entertainment developed the Dartmouth Outing Club, the legend of a "college on skis" that made last week's 25th annual Winter Carnival one of the brightest happenings on the calendar of U.

...ravine, 14 acres of decorative prune trees, broad lawns, flowers, a swimming pool, a theatre with a 7-foot stage for family theatricals, loud speakers by both croquet court and pool. The ranch is under the special care of "Ceegee," who does the hiring, firing and ordering. Of a week-end there will be from ten to 25 guests at La Estancia. Harpo Marx came for a day, stayed a week.
