“George Atsedes, a restaurant proprietor in Ithaca for 20 years, has purchased the Tompkins Hotel at Aurora and Seneca Sts. from Thomas A. Herson and sold the Club Caret, 106 N. Tioga St., to the Tompkins County Trust Company.

The Club Caret will remain open the next 4 or 5 months while the Tompkins Hotel is being brought up to date for operation as a hotel and restaurant, Atsedes said today. Herson has run the Tompkins Hotel and grill 24 years.”
