A NEW PICCADILLY

Many patrons of the McAlpn nave
recently been surprised TO find among
the McAlpin personnel familiar faces
Of former employees of large hotels in
London, Paris and other European
cities who were forced by the war to
abandon their places abroad
Curiously enough. many of the for
rier maitres d'hotel and other en-
ployes of Continental hotels bear Ger
man names and were. in some in
stances. forced out of their places be-
cause Of their nationality.
Among the familiar faces of the ex'
ecutive staff Of the big hosiery, known
to many travellers, the most conspicu'
Gus are George A. Strunz, who up t
a few weeks ago was one Of the man
ayers of the Hotel Cecil in London;
Fritz Frey, who not long ago presided
over the dining rooms Of the Hote
Piccadilly in London; William Baecher
who before the war was assistant man
ager of the Piccadilly, and Francis
John Lepinsky, formerly manager OF

WRITTEN ORDERS
Captain Falconer Institutes New
Plan. Which Proves Useful
TO Men on Rounds.

CAPTAIN Falconer increased his pop
u!aritv among the men Of the Elizabeth
st. police station yesterday b. adopt
ing a new plan for giving orders. As
each patrolman left the station ne re-
ceiycd a copy OF special directions for
his tour on post. After one days trial
all concerned agreed that the captains
plan was an excellent one.
Previously the outgoing platoon has
frequently been held on the floor for
rom five 20 fifteen minutes while the
orders were read to them. The result
was that much necessary information
was not retained by the men and their
police duty suffered. Then. again. the
man who he'd finished his patrol was
DELAYED Just so mcch IN getting his re
lief %,
Other precinct commanders will
probably feel pressure from Their SUP

tain Falconer's scheme in Elizabeth 81.
