The tuxedo is a gift from John
S. Blick, the magnate, and from
him also came an order to wear 1t
all the time Earle is on duty.
In breaking the news to Stock
ing that he was about to become
a one-man fashion show, the big
boss of Convention Hall, the
Arcadia and half a dozen other
notable bowling ventures, said:
Were gonna elevate the atmosphere
Of this game. We're gonna make bowl
ing alleys so burned clean in every re-
spect that a pink tea wouldn't be out
of place in one of 'em. The most i'm
portant part of this business is In meet
Ing the public, and man who must
come into contact with lot of people
daily ought to keep himself looking
good. Good clothes inspire confidence.
Every one of our floor men has got TO
be spick and span. I'm asking you TO
crawl into that undertaker's outfit the
moment you hit this place and leave 1t
on until you quit"
So far as Stocking Is concerned there
Is one bright aspect Of being the best
dressed bowling alley manager on ea 4Tn1i
If he loses his job at Convention Han
, he oughtn' have eny trouble gettlng an
other as a waiter.
