Lawndale : Sir Walter Trolley Wins
Sir Walter Trolley beat out Wally Trolley and Jolly Mr. Trolley in a contest to name Lawndale’s newly designated mascot, a trolley conductor. Seth Durham, a Mark Twain Elementary School first-grader, came up with the name, winning a $25 gift certificate from a toy store. The city began a free bus service a year ago, using vehicles designed to look like trolleys.
