AT THE HOTELS

William Tolman, a prominent insur-
ance man of Connecticut, who is regis
tered at the Alexandria, has unique
and witty way of lodging, the pronun-
citation of Los Angeles which, he
says, he will not speak while away from
home, because he has already found
seventy-four ways of pronouncing 1t
and looks for more to come.
"At Albuquerque we insurance men
were loaded down with good fellowship
