And before that, it was ALgonquin 4-5678!  

Their switchboard number is STadium 7-7000, which doesn't seem
particularly appropriate; I wonder if they might originally have had
another number, perhaps ALgonquin 4-4000, and then later upgraded
their phone system.  The ALgonquin exchange is served from the Allston
C.O., which is located on that little diagonal street that cuts off
one corner at the intersection of North Harvard St. and Western Ave.
The STadium exchange is in the Brighton C.O., which is across the
street from the Brighton district police building off Washington St.
