DATES TO REMEMBER
[This page prints its dates in two columns, the date on the left and the event on the right, each pair separated by a dash. Read straight across instead of column by column, three of the five entries ran together into one paragraph, so the Annual Meeting and the Sheridan sale lost their own dates. The list is set out here in the order the columns are meant to be read.]
