WHEN STRENGTH IS PRICELESS
$5,600,000 ice damage yielding to 9-state
Telephone Teamwork
Wide areas of the South have learned first-hand
what it means to have a strong Telephone Com
pany when disaster strikes.
The recent ice storm dealt a giant blow to por
tions of five Southern states. For telephone facili
ties, it was the worst ice storm in history. Tele
phone poles and wires snapped under the weight
erf tons of glittering ice. Eighty-seven thousand
telephones and 3,174 Long Distance circuits
were knocked out, and 181 communities
isolated.
While ice still sparkled on the magnolias, the
Telephone team swung into action. From all nine
Southern Bell states, repair crews, cable, wire and
poles were swiftly assembled. By rail, truck and
plane they came, as skilled Telephone repairmen
worked around the clock.
i
That’s the kind of resources and teamwork it
takes when nature goes on the rampage. It cuts
weeks off the time it takes to restore service. And
that’s mighty important as the Nation mobilizes
for Defense.
It’s good to know that whenever such disaster
comes your way, an abundance of help—from
other states if needed—won’t be far behind. It’s good, too, that regardless
of where a Bell Telephone man comes- from, the tools, the materials
and methods he’ll work with are the same as those he uses back home.
