Seek to Force Bell To Give Service - In 2-Block Area

A movement to force the Indiana Bell Telephone Co. to supply telephone service to more than 40 families in the 2200 and 2300 blocks of St. Paul St. was started! today by Richard Hansing, 2321 St. Paul St, Mr. Hansing, a traveling sales-| man, appealed to Public Counselor Walter Jones to intervene in the case.

Mr. Hansing said he-had one daughter in the hospital and still couldn’t get telephone service. He added that other people with sim-| {lar problems suffered the same] fate. |

“When my son gashed his head, I couldn’t immediately call a doctor because I had no phone,” Mr.| Hansing told Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones advised Mr. Hansing| to file a service complaint with] the State Public Service Commisgion. ’ In relating the story, Mr. Hanging said 30 families on the two blocks have demanded service, but have received no action. He| estimated that there were more | than 40 families living within the! two streets. Only one person, he added, had phone service. This person was identified as Mario Salamone. Mr. Hansing said representa-| tives of the telephone company told him that the utility could

‘Oh, Was That All?" : Quakes Put Frisco In Atom Dither

By United Press :

BERKELEY, Cal., July 24—Two sharp earthquake shocks in the San Francisco Bay area last night caused scores of residents to ask police if an atom bomb had been dropped. “They're still calling in to ask about the atom bomb,” a police swit-hboard operator said three hours after the last shock. “Don’t they have any sense?” The first quake was recorded at 9:26 p. m. (Indianapolis Time). The University cf California, describing it as sharp, said it was centered probably in North Berkeley or neighboring Albany. The second, some 30 minutes later, was stronger. It was felt eight miles away. Residents complained their houses rocked, lights swayed and dishes rattled. “What shall I do? My house is shaking,” one woman's voice asked Albany, Cal., police.

“Stay where you are, madam,” police replied. “What was that noise?” Berkeley” desk sergeant.
