Phoenix Attorneys Go into Partnership, Surpris in g Many Friends-Are Well Known in State and Fed eral Courts

Oscar T. Richey and Benton Dick suite of rooms bearing on the door ways the announcement, "Richey and Dick, attorneys at law"
 This is one of the interesting de- velopments of the last few weeks in the federal court of the state of Arizona. Work in this court as as sistant district attorny and practice before it in criminal cases threw the two men together in a business way, after they had been associated as friends ever since they both accept ed Tucson as their homes many years ago. The change in administration left Richey to enter private practice, and his friendship for Dick caused 1 him to propose a partnership. l Both are attorneys of special note Both have been involved as repre- sentatives before the fedral court of clients in the Arizona Mutual and Arizona Trust Company difficulties Both are widely known.
 Alliances with law firms in Los l AIStltS, sodL FIdHClSCO anu w dSH- ington, D. C., have been secured. Or March l. the new shingle goes up. | Benton Dick was one of the work up-f from the bottom sort of a fellow So was Richey Neither started ou to be lawyers. Dick was a traiI dispatcher for years on the Southerr Pacific lines, after having worked il this department on eastern roads Richey was an expert accountant Fondness for Blackstone threw then into the work of being legal men, ant they have both plowed wide swaths
 Both Richey and Dick have groWl up in their professions in the con fines of old Tucson's courts. The! had both been in Phoenix some tim before entering partnership.
 On a recent trip to San Bran cisco, when he took a leading par in the trial of the Italian land con spirators who attempted to exploi Phoenix real estate by proxy, Riche was admitted to all the state am federal courts there. This enable the firm to claim it can practice be fore any court in Arizona and Cali fornia.
 There are innumerable friends wh wish the new firm all the luck il the world, and it's members sue individual prosperity as their industr so richly deserves.
