Observe:
“$lO bill, lost by 6th grader—
was to pay vet for operation on
his dog. Lost in the vicinity of
W. Foster Ave. Please call AD
8-6912.”
This poignant plea appeared in
the Collegian’s classified ad sec
tion on Tuesday. The ad, thanks
to a University student, resulted
in a mended dog, a happy 6th
grader and a mother much im
pressed by student honesty.
On the same day the ad ap
peared, the bill was returned to
Mrs. Charity Barlet, of State Col
lege, by David Mankey, sopho
more in physical education from
Pittsburgh. Mankey found the
bill as the ad had mentioned, on
W. Foster Ave., and returned it
folded just as it had been when
Mrs. Barlet’s son lost it. Mankey
refused a reward for his honesty.
Classifieds: 17 words or less, one
insertion: 50 cents.
Additional words—3 for 5 cents
for each day of insertion.
Mrs. Barlet’s ad—26 words.
Ten dollars minus (three times

Workmen's Drills
Ring in New Phones
For the past three weeks, coeds have been listening to tha
buzz of drills boring into the walls, as workmen make way
for the new dial telephone system.
But that’s the price they must pay so their friends can
call in and they can call out 24 hours a day starting next fall.
Wilbur F. Diehl, manager of
telephones, said yesterday that
under the new system, which
should be completed by August
16, there will be about one phone
to every three-and-a-half rooms.
Under the new sysiem every
resident hall room will be as
signed a phone number contain
ing the exchange "University,"
followed by five digits, as UN
3-3459.
The number may then be dialed
from anywhere in town or by an
out-of-town operator.
Diehl said that wiring is being
done in North Halls, South Halls
and in Atherton, McEhvain and
Simmons Halls.
Work on the new Telephone
Building, in which all telephone
equipment will be housed, has
been held up recently, according
to the construction supervisor on
the job. The supervisor said the
delay was caused by inability to
get windows for the building from
the manufacturer.
However the building is near
enough completion so ihe West
ern Electric Corp. workmen can
start to install telephone equip
ment whenever they are ready.

the supervisor said. He said he
expected them to start installa
tion some time this week.
Diehl said the original date for
completion, which had been set
for the last of August, was moved
up two weeks to August 18 so the
phones would be in use for a con
vention which will bring about
5000 persons to campus.
Diehl said there will not be any
time when the phones will be
shut off. He said that one minute
you’ll have to ask the operator
for the number and the next min
ute you’ll just dial the number
you want.
The system was in the plan
ning stage for two-and-a-half
years before it was approved by
the Board of Trustees, Diehl said.
