The Recent Hurricane Demonstrates Again Southern Bell’s Ever-Readiness to Serve You eee Come Storm or Fire, Hail or High Water all Southern Bell personnel in | the Southeastern states was alerted for action. Orders for equipment were rushed to the Western Electric Company. Emergency crews from ad- joining states poured into the threatened area by truck, plane and train. Every effort was concentrated on getting skilled * men and {materials there ahead of the hurricane. When the full fury of the storm struck, operators stuck to their posts hour after hour...maintaining communications throughout most of the storm-lashed sec. tion ... helping to save lives and avert injuries; to ease anxious hearts and minds and to-bring a feeling of calm and com: fort to those waiting out the wind. Typical of this devotion to duty were the two lone operators in a telephone office in Bay St, With the first warning of the approaching hurricane along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, Louis, who stayed at thei> switchboard until the last lines went out—then prayed. Assoon as the storm abated, emergency crews went to work repairing a damage to telephone facilities that ran into hun- dreds of thousands of dollars and totalled more than 106,000 breaks in service. Skilled repairmen worked around the clock —wading through miles of swamps and marshes—hattling wind, water—even snakes. It was a tremendous job. Yet within a few days after the wind blew itself out, more than 90% of the telephone service in areas affected by the hurricane was back to normal. Fortunately, hurricanes don’t happen every day. But it’s good to know that whenever and whatever the emergency, you can count on telephone folks to de- liver that extra measure of power in a pinch. It’s this tradition of service that gives a value to your telephone that cannot be measured by the price you pay. SOUTHERN. BELL TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAPH COMPANY
