For Allen Aloysius Ryan, Jr., son of the famous Wall Street broker and grandson of Thomas Fortune Ryan, has gone onto the street to retrieve the $5,000,000 his father lost in an unsuccessful corner on Stutz stock a few years ago. I'resh from Yale he has just pur- chased a seat on the Curb Exchange, after serving an apprenticeship as stock runner, stock clerk, margin clerk and order elerk, He is 21 years, old. Young Ryan is a husky replica of his daring father who was a sensa- tion of trading on Wall Street in his youth. “There is nothing to write about me,” he said, “I'm merecly going on the street to earn my living.” Ryan’s business and flnancial ca- reer took definite form during his school days at Yale. He was busi- ness manager of the Yale Record and class treasurer. He also headed the corporation that purchased the land on which the new office building of the Yale Record was constructed. —-—__—_———'_'-—'-_———-'-—"—'——-—— LOUISE WARHOW vs. JOSEPH WARHOW Superior Court, Btate of ~Connecticuf, County of Hartford, the 19th day of Aug- ust, 1924, ORDER OF NOTICE Upon ecomplaint in said cause brought to said court, at Hartford in said County, on the first Tuesday of September, 1024, claiming a divorce, and change of name, it appearing to and being found by the subscribing authority, that the whereahouts of the defendant Joseph Warhow s un- Kknown to the plaintift, but that he formerly lived in New Britain, Ordered; that notice of the fnstitution and pendency of eaid complaint shall be given the defendant hy publishing this or- der in The New Britain Herald, a newspa- per published in New Britain, once a week, for two successiva weeks, commencing on er before August 21, 1924, GEORGE A.
