GREAT INChtASE IN
TELEPHONES IN PA.
Bell Annual Report Shows 44%
Growth in Five Years

According to the annual report of
The Bell Telephone Company of Penn
sylvania, just released, 174,590 tele-
phones were connected to Bell switch
boards in Pennsylvania last year, and
107,194 telephones were disconnected.
Transfers of telephones to and from
the Bell to other companies because
of purchases and sales of property
involved total of 1882 telephones
added and 36,314 telephones deducted
from those operated by the Pennsyl-
vania Bell Company in the State.
This leaves a net growth of 44,444
telephones for 1925.
During the last five years the num-
ber of Bell telephones in the State has
increased from 657 TAG to 44,393, or
approximately 44qo.
The annual report goes on to point
out that this growth is important to
the telephone user because the utility
and value of each telephone grows in
proportion to the number of tele-
phones in use.

ELECTRIC SWITCHES
CONNECT TELEPHONES
In Some Offices 1000 Switches
involved on a Single Call

To establish a telephone connection
between two subscribers in a manu-
ally operated telephone system may
require the opening and closing Of
about a hundred and fifty electric
switches, and in certain machine
switching systems nearly two thou
sand, remarks the last issue Of the
Bell Telephone Quarterly, just re-
leased.
Not only is infinite care required
in the design Of this equipment, but
painstaking workmanship is demand
ed for installing and connecting them
to telephone wires, continues this
article. Vast numbers of soldered
connections between the equipment
and the wires are necessary. A good
sized manual switchboard with its
equipment will contain about a mil
lion of these soldered connections,
while large machine switching CEN
tral Office will have as many rs e.
100000.
The Bell Telephone Laboratories in
New York are constantly at work
seeking to improve the equipment. 1t
was at first thought that platinum
was the only metal that could be used
for making contact through the deli
cately adjusted switches. Then
more inexpensive metal called palls-
dunn was found to be suitable for
any types of contacts and, finally, a
still less costly alloy of platinum and
other metals came In as substitute.
The savings from these changes
amount to about 100000 in the
first cost of apparatus added to the
Bell System each year.

local Outfield gathered in some high
ones that looked as if they were go
ing to disappear in the sky much to
the enjoyment of fans who like to
see clean baseball with no errors.
Throughout the game while the
PlentywOod fans we're enjoying the
artistic work of their players, the
ScObey fans and team looked on with
a bored expression as batter after
batter came to the plate and slowly
walked back a few moments later,
having whitfield the air three times or
knocked weak grounder or pop-up.
The game was fast and quiet with
no pickering or a great deal of root
ing as the fans watched with interest
the speed of the players as they
handled the ball.
Following is the summary of the
game by innings.

PLENTYWOOD HUMBLES SCOBEY
LAST SATURDAY AND SUNDAY
Makes Crack Baseball Team From Daniels County Seat Look
Like Rank Amateurs Scobey Fans Leave Plentywood
With Vengeance in Their Eyes and Tail Feathers Drag
ging
DAVENPORT PITCHES BIG SHUTOUT CAME

At last the Scobey baseball team
has felt the sting of defeat from a
superior team-a team with which
they acted like schools boys in COM
parison. Happy Felsch's fence bus
ters are no longer champions of the
DakOtas and Northeastern Montana.
The baseball fans of Scobey asked
for a team that would give Scobey
a chance to play ball and Plentywood
gave them one. Now they are bitter
ly weeping and crashing their teeth.
Fire and birthstone are in the air
and it is said that there is going to
be great havoc done in the ranks of
the ScObey machine. Even before
leaving Plentywood after the second
game, those who claim to know say
that wires were being prepared to
send for players of higher calibre
than those which cavorted over the
diamond here. Scobey cannot stand
defeat. Their pleasant smile has
turned to one of grim soberness, and
all the while the Plentywood fans are
bowling with glee over the cocky
champions of last year and daring
them to bring on their "durndest'
and see them bite the dust.
The story of the defeat of Scobey
is as follows:
Saturday afternoon, the Plenty
wood boys jOurneyed to Scobey where
they met ScObey on their own dia-
mond fresh from victories over the
fast Regina team of Canada. Diesel
took the mound for Scobey, while
Walters laid the ball over for the To-
cal team. The game was a swatfest
from beginning to end, and the SEQ
hey fans were bewildered by the dis
play of stick work on the part Of
the Plentywood team which they ex
pected to see defeated with ease
Plentywood garnered % hits while
the much Wanted stickers of ScObey
gathered IL safe bingles. This tell!
the story of the score which was Il
to 10. As the last man came to ba
and the jumps waved him out, the SEQ
hey fans staggered from the park il
a daze.
Following is the box score:
