The Diamond State Telephone
Company has just completed a
S12,500 addition to the equipment

year in building new cable and
wire lines in the area served by
the Smyrna Office, Mr.. Collins said.
This new equipment makes it pos
sible for us to provide service for
all those on the waiting list only
because of the shortage of central
Office facilities, he said. "How-
ever, there are still 81 others wait
ing who are located in places
where no lines are available to
connect them with the central of
flee. New line construction is pro-
crossing rapidly and we expect all

2 BOYS RESCUE
FATHER, SON
Hal Bodley and Kenneth Boy
er Make Rescue i'm Boat
at Lake Como
MOTOR BOAT CAPSIZED

Two, quick thinking young boys,
one a Cub Scout, head Smyrna's
hero list by virtue of their cool
headed action which probably
saved the lives of a father and his
young son after his inboard motor
boat capsized in Lake Como last
Wednesday evening, June 8. The
young heroes are Kenneth Boyer,
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Boyer,
and Hal Bodley, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Harley R. Bodley, all of
Smyrna. Both boys are 9 years of
age. The accident occurred, ac-
cording to Robert Boyer, when he,
accompanied by his young son,
Robert, Jr., age 4, was making a
turn in the middle of the lake off
the beach at the west end of Lake
Drive. Realizing his boat was 60
ing to overturn, Boyer said he
grabbed his son to prevent losing
him in the water. When the boat
was completely over he held the
youngster above water but discov-
cred that Robert, Jr., had his feet
entangled in the steering cable.
To extricate him, Boyer was fore
ed to push his son back below the
surface so he could work the cable
free. He freed the boy shortly af-
terwards and held his head above
water. Boyer's older son, Kenneth,
and Cub Scout Hal Bodley, who
were on shore with Mrs. Boyer,
seeing their plight set out after
them in young Bodley's outboard
motorboat. Bodley tossed life pre-
servers but they fell out of reach
of the victims. Seeing this, Bod
ley put his boat in reverse, not
taking the time to circle the scene
again, and drifted up to the
stranded couple. The rescue boat
arrived Immediately before Boyer's
