Mr. Miller, thank you for staying on top of this.
If you have a digital camera, could you photograph page four from the September 1957 issue? Another option would be to take it to a copy shop or library for scanning. Short of that, even transcribing here exactly what Nixon and the editors wrote would be a great help.
Thanks again!

Dear sir,
I apologize for the tardy response, but it was June and now July; a time of the year that still beckons me under the water and away from the computer.
The respectful of the title "Mr" is acknowledged and appreciated. FYI I have had the title of "Doctor" for more years than I care to admit. This is an earned title not an acquired name.
Your advice regarding the use of a digital camera is also appreciated, However since returning from the NAUI 50th Anniversary Celebration my digital camera has some serious problems and needs work, therefore I can not comply.
As I recall I sent you a PM stating that I would dissemble one of my dive flag files which is held together by Chicago Book Binding posts, reproduce the pages and send them to you to reproduce and as an uninvolved third party post. Sadly you did not give me the courtesy of a response.
Therefore you have several options;
1) Accept my short synopsis quoting the present and many future SDM articles
2) Contact Mr. Dockery for his file and SDM articles
3) Contact your local LDS for copies
4) Purchase copies of the SDMs on E bay for verification
The sun is up in California; even though I am older than Mr Dockery it is time for my morning jog therefore I must depart from the computer.
More responses in turn later,
