came the repair crews
An early snow, drifting down from
leaden December skies, froze to
telephone polks and lines. Hard on
its heels came the wind. Ic^-laden
wires snapped and poles splintered
before the.blast.
Night found seorcsVAowns through-
out the storm region handicapped
by crippled telephone service. ■ •*,
But, with the morning, came the re-
piir crews. Hastily gathered from
regions untouched by storm, they
poured into the stricken area with
trucks, tools and materials. Day
and night they rushed the work of
reconstruction.
• ft •
One advantage of the Bell System’s
far-flung organization is this: When
disaster flattens the telephone sys-
tem, men and money and materials
are instantly available for the
prompt repair of the damage.
