Here we learned that Arnold has won a scholarship for his studies at Harvard Medical School, and his father Bill Nevis offers additional money to help him out.
Bill is being evaluated again at Sansum Clinic in Santa Barbara for his diabetes, which he typically fails to control well. (His daughter-in-law Newlin Ashmore Nevis, a registered nurse, said that in the 1950s and 1960s he "abused his body" by eating whatever and how much he wanted and then shot up with insulin to compensate. He did not exercise.) Rubye is Hazel's brother's wife.
A note from Bill's wife Hazel indicates she will assist in controlling Bill's diet.
