    Obituary:
    Norton Conway, stockbroker, housed many foreign students

    Memorial services for Norton "Uncle Tommy" Conway, 79, whose La Jolla home was fondly called the "Conway Hilton" because more than 500 foreign students were housed there over the years, will be at 3 p.m. Saturday in the International Center of the University of California at San Diego. Mr. Conway willed his body to the university's School of Medicine. He died Sunday in his home.

    Mr. Conway, a native of Evanston, Ill., and a 20-year La Jolla resident, started his career with a seat on the New York Stock Exchange, ran a bottling business in Trinidad, Colo., and had been a stock broker in Albuquerque, N.M., and Chicago. He worked for Shearson/American Express in La Jolla from 1963 until his 1979 retirement.

    He and his wife, Dorothy, known as "Aunt Dottie," were active in many foreign-student programs here and received several commendations for their efforts.

    Other survivors include two daughters, Merry Conway-Cosandey of New York City and Sylvia Jerace of Annapolis, Md.; a son, Vanderlip of Annapolis, Md.; and five grandchildren. The family suggested donations to the Friends of the International Center at UCSD.
