United Telephone is expanding its services

“Our goal is Io improve our efficiency with better and faster service to our customers.” So states Maynard Hochstetler, district manager for United Telephone Company. United Telephone is changing its operations this month by moving most of its Syracuse facilities to Nappanee. All of the Syracuse records have been moved to Nappanee. Most of United’s personnel have also been moved over to the Nappanee area. Hochstetler said, “We hope to improve our scheduling for customer service and customer repairs.” Now, all requests for service will be handled through the Nappanee office instead of at Syracuse. “The daily scheduling of our service personnel will all be planned and programmed at Nappanee. We also feel with this method of operation, we can more efficiently rotate our personnel to all areas of the district. This way they will be more familiar and can provide customers with quicker, more efficient service.” Hochstetler added, “This enables us to keep all of our telephone inventory at Nappanee. This will thereby reduce the required inventory and reduce our overhead.” All installation and repair personnel were moved to Nappanee April 9. Business people and plant records were moved on April 16. A total of 11 people are now reporting at Nappanee instead of at Syracuse.

Rotary honors Nelson Miles On Tuesday evening, at the South Shore Country Club, the Syracuse-Wawasee Rotary Club honored long-time member. Nelson Miles.

The.fund is used to provide fellowship grants to young people for important educational research all over the free world. The Syracuse man was surprised by the honor and accepted it with his characteristic humility and usual wit and charm known to so many local residents. Mr. Miles is the fifth member of the local club to receive this honor. Another highlight of the evening was the program put on by Captain Ron Grossman of Grissom Air Force Base. The program was chosen especially for Miles, who flew as a member of the United States Air Corp in World War I. Capt. Grossman showed films and answered questions concerning the readiness and ability of the Strategic Air Command to defend the country against nuclear attack. The evening, however, belonged to Nelson Miles for his having been designated an outstanding citizen of the country. Rotary Club members demonstrated they are honored tohave him for a member.
