POLICE SWITCHBOARD
TO Be MODERNIzED
important Changes Will Be
Effective Shortly.

Important changes in operation of
the telephone switchboard at police
headquarters will become effective
in a few days, it was announced to-
day by Chief Mike Morrissey.
Capt. Robert L. Bats is super
vising the changes, which include
installation of a board which is eX-
pected to aid materially in curling
depredations of bank bandits and
other ROBBERS.
The board is arranged for connec-
ton with banks or other places
where a touch will start a buzzer
and turn on a light. To complete
this service, the dispatcher will have
charts of streets and floor plans Of
banks and other buildings, to gov
ern him in handling police squads
in cases of holdups.
Another change will give the dis
patcher means for instant commu
nication with superior police officers
at their desks.
Amplifiers will be installed so
that the dispatcher can hear all re-
ports coming to the board.
