CHANGE IN T H E UNIVERSITY TELEPHONE SERVICE (26) A report from Professor James M. White, Supervising Architect, that the Central Union Telephone Company has declined to continue longer the service between our automatic telephone system and the city switchboard, for which we have been paying $400 a year. We have 528 automatic instruments through which that service has been available. Professor White quotes the chief engineer of the Central Union Telephone Co. as of the opinion that our automatic equipment is obsolete and undesirable from a maintenance point of view. Professor White is of the opinion that we cannot furnish good city and long distance service through it, but that it should furnish good intercommunicating service on the campus for some time. It represents an investment of about $50,000. The cost of the present telephone service is described by Professor White as follows: 49 Bell phones with 28 extensions, and the branch exchange in the Residence Hall.
