GREAT IMPROVEMENT
MADE IN EQUIPMENT
NEW TELEPHONE HOME OC
CUPIED
NO DIFFICULTIES
Exactly at 10:25 O'clock Last]
Night New Switchboards Want
Into Service.
Just exactly nt 10:2.'? o'clock last
nicht thc old flwltch hoards of thc
Southern Bril Telephone company tn
Anderdon were discarded and thc
complete new equipment in tho hand
some new building on West Whittier
street went into service. Not a sin
gle> bitch occurred, not a thing turn
ed up to Interfere with the p'ans pf
thc company, and the lines were in
operation after that minute as though
no chango had eve- boen made. No
Lolepbone subscriber was put t > one
minute's inconvenience. Thc first
message to go over the wires after
the Chango waa made to the mayor
of the city whon Manager Walter 8.
Beatty called up J. H. Godfrey and
advised him of thc chance and the
next conversation was that of Mr.
Beatty to The Intelligencer office. Thc
now office is now working as M-.ouKh
all of the equipment had seen mont li?
of servlco instead of a few hours.
Toe new building and equipment
will, compare well with that enjoyed
by any c-ther city In the South ard
one of thc chief< officials of the com
pany yesterday told a roporter f w
Tho Intelligencer that lt lg consider
ably better than that In uso in any
town In the South of tho samo popu
lation as Anderson.
For days. Manager Beatty and tho
'local telephone officials have been
retting ready for tho "cut over" of
the lines. Yesterday thc following of
ficials of the.company were in the
city to Bee that nothing went wrong
with tho plans: C. E. Woodruff, Jr.,
equipment supervisor, of Charlotte;
J. D. Ball, traffics supervisor, of Char
lotta; EL S. Davis, district traffic
phief, of Greenville; B. Martin of At
lanta, foreman for the Western Elec
tric company; T. P. NelBon of Char
lotte, division inspector of equipment;
J. H. Weaver and A. L. Jones of Char
lotte, inspectors; E. C. Yarborough of
Charlotte, foreman. -
Because of the fact that the 15*An
doreen operators are not familiar witts
tho new typo of switchboard, lt was
necessary to hrln? ttm*
operators here from Greenville. The
new. operators will bc in Anderson
until the local centrals have mastered
tito new switchboard and are thor
?u?n?y tumtiiar with its workings.
thanking yesterday of the chango,
Manager Beatty said: "We have taken
.ivory possible precaution, known to
telephone science, to keep down all
mistakes and errors in connection
with tho moving ot the plant and if
it ls possible we.do not intend caus
ing, a- singlo subscriber to get a wrong
connection or to have any difficulty
in getting the parties they desire to
talk to."
Tho manager says that all circuits
and switchboards have been tested
and re-tcated by different Inspectors
nod that if there ls one thing still
out of place they do not know where
it is. 'All of tho underground circuits
have also been checked and re-check
ed and this morning each one of An
derson's 875 telephones should he
working well.
. Manager Beatty seid last night .that
he would keep his entire force of
linemen and other operators on duty
- today and if ono single detail goes
. wr.Y5g he will ho nhlo to " right ll
within a few minutes.
Anderson p?k>plo are proud ot U?e
new telephone building and UV. spion
did cquipmont and they have overy
right to be.
