    Physician's Gift to Medical School. 
    —The chairman of the Semicentennial Commission of the University of Southern California announces a gift to the medical school of $100,000 from Dr. and Mrs. Wesley Wilbur Beckett, Los Angeles. The medical school was reopened last September after having suspended operations for several years. Dr. Beckett has long engaged in practice in Los Angeles; he is vice president and medical director of the Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company and a director in other corporations. In transmitting the gift to the university, he said that there is no worthier object for gifts than the school that will train young people to heal the sick and apply themselves to health problems of the community.Identification
