Long distance calls were not
satisfactory for a distance OF more
than 40 or 50 miles. Beyond that
it was necessary to have an operator
al an intermediate town repeat the
conversation.
Gallon had only three long dis
tance lines IN 1892. one connecting
it with Cucyrus, one with Crestl,ne,
and the third with Mansfield. Il was
through Mansfield that all other
available towns were reached. For
example, d call to Cleveland was
routed via Mansfield and Norwalk.
In very few instances were CUSTOM
ers able to talk direct, it being nee
essary for the Norwalk operator TO
repeat the conversation. Most ot
the calls from Gallon to Cleveland
were made by undertakers who
wanted shipments Of coffins.
''In those days the small towr
telephone manager was a 'jack-of-ai
trades. He was ~installer, battery
rcplacer. repairman, lineman, switch
board man. night operator, collector
and business solicitor. There were
no departments and very few spe
cialists. He had to work out hi
own problems and technical advice
was not easily obtained.
Many persons regarded the tele.
phone as dangerous instrument

Outer 'Keepsie Lane,
Drawn for Varsity
By Bears, Huskies
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, May 23.-California,
winner of last years varsity race
in record time, and Washington,
conqueror of the Golden Bears on
the West Coast this season, were
placed side by side in the draw for
lanes for the intercollegiate regatta
on the Hudson River June 18.
California, which was timed in
18:12ss last year, drew No. 8, the
outside lane, for the climax race of
the regatta at Poughkeepsie, while
Washington drew No. 7. Syracuse
drew the No. l lane, nearest the
shore, and between the Orange and
Huskies were placed Wisconsin,
Princeton, the highly regarded Cor
nell eight, Navy and Columbia.
For the junior varsity race the
No. lane was left open. Columbia
drew No. 2 with Cornell, Navy,
California, Syracuse, last years
winner, and Washington.
The freshmen will line up with
Princeton in the No. 3 spot, then
Cornell, Syracuse and Columbia.
Neither Washington, last years
victor, or California will be repre-
sented in the yearling test.
