with the "huge William Edwards liquor company/ He continued in this
field for many years dealing with the best restaurants and liquor estab-lishments
throughout the country. This gave him tn? opportunity to

enjoye'd his genial hospitality during the 1936-37 season.

that he and his brother-in-law flrat started negotiating with John Llota
