STEPS TAKEN IN
PHONE CHANGES
Surveys to Deter.
mine If New Type System is
Feasible

Preliminary work preceding the
proposed modernization of McCon-
nlsville telephone system is under
way here by d. j. Long, representa-
tive of The Telephone Service Co.
Of Ohio.
Mr.. Long is making a survey to
determine il subscribers want a
change from the magnetic crank type
telephone to modern battery type as
used in larger cities.
He said that he knew of no town
in Ohio the size of McConnelsville
which is using the crank type tele-
phone.
Before McConnelsville and the
rural area, served by the McCon-
nelsville exchange, have a modern
and efficient system there must be
many changes made including mod
ern type telephones without cranks
or batteries, also automatic and Sc
lective ringing.
Cost of Improvement will be ap-
proximately $25.000.0O, which will
include the cost of making rural
lines fully metallic and giving rural
modern service.
