Accompanying Mr. Sowder on the trip were Mr. and Mrs. Secrest of Santa Monica and Mr. and Mrs. Voss of West Los Angeles. The party went down by train taking three days for the trip. However, they flew back in eight and a half hours and Mr. Sowder was high in his praise of Mexican airlines, their service and comfort. The party made Mexico City their headquarters and made side trips to Cuernavaca, Taxco, the pyramids of the Aztecs and Maxmillian's palace. Mr. Sowder was particularly interested in the art colony at Taxco where the largest silver mine in the world is located. The garden of the roof of the palace and the floating gardens also were among the highspots of his trip. He described the weather as lovely and Mexico City as a lively city to which he hopes to return some day. The city of Trenton, New Jersey, was founded by English settlers in 1685. M-m-m-m...
