its Plymouth district at the end of 1975, the latest date for which figures are available. Included are buildings, switching equipment, cable, poles, vehicles and office equipment for the firm's exchanges of Argos. LaPaz, New Carlisle, North Liberty, Plymouth, and Walkerton. At the end of Decernber, 1976, United served 20,605 telephones in the six exchanges. The Plymouth area construction budget is part of United's $20,881 million proposed program for additional and new service facilities in its 93 Indiana exchanges this year. Schipper said that major exchange cables are placed in underground conduit for maximum protection from weather, rodents, and accidental cutting. Air drier systems aid in maintaining a specific air pressure in many cables, which helps keep them moisture-free. Buried cable (not in conduit) is used instead of aerial cable whenever possible because it isn't exposed to the ravages of snow. sleet, wind, and rain. Excessive rains, rodents, or accidental cutting are hazards for buried cable, but it gives more trouble free service than aerial and eliminates the need for unsightly poles and overhead lines, according to Schipper.
