Perry, your Telephone Manager in Anaheim New cables have built-in "raincoats" Inside the telephone cables that carry your calls are many tiny wires. They're the "voiceways". Now, in the picture above, these wires are getting a good dunking under the faucet, as you see. But they're still dry. For each pair of wires is covered with a plastic "raincoat". Paper was once used for this job in all cables. But now we have a new and economical way to put on plastic covers. Result: Even if harmful water should get into one of the new cables, there's an added safeguard to protect your calls. The men and women of Pacific Telephone work to make your telephone more useful every day. Inside the telephone cables that carry your calls are many tiny wires. They're the "voiceways".

Just ask your florist to telephone your order. He will call the distant city and arrange for delivery of your flowers before you leave his shop. If the flowers you want don't happen to be in stock, it's easy, by telephone, to change the order. You'll know the flowers you send will arrive on time, too. Florists who offer this new service display an emblem with the words "We speed flowers by telephone" on their window. We think you'll enjoy patronizing them. "ALL IN THE LINE OF DUTY" SAYS TELEPHONE COMPANY EMPLOYEE Regarding his voluntary first aid assistance in a major automobile crash as nothing more than part of his job, W. P. MIKLOS, a Pacific Telephone Company station repairman, seeks no praise for his heroic assistance. While on a routine "trouble shooting" assignment for the company, he heard the impact of a collision. Rushing immediately to the scene, he was the first to arrive. Finding a badly injured mother and child, he immediately rendered necessary first aid and called an ambulance with his test set, from a nearby protestor. Standing by until the ambulance arrived, he then aided the ambulance driver in loading the injured. Miklos has been with the Pacific Telephone Company for nine years, is married and has three daughters. Pacific Telephone Company employees are trained and dedicated to public service. ANAHEIM COOP. ORANGE ASSN. HAS 37th ANNUAL MTG. "Anaheim Cooperative Orange Association expects to handle a volume as large or larger than the 10-year average during the coming season despite acreage losses due to subdivision activity," T. Earle Woodward, secretary-manager, told members of the association at the 37th annual meeting. "The apparently insatiable demand for subdivision land and industrial sites in Orange county, particularly in the Anaheim area, shows no sign of slackening," he reported. The meeting of the cooperative was held at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park and was attended by more than 75 members and guests. President Henry Ramm presided over the business session which followed the luncheon. "The association handled a total of 506,732 field boxes of oranges during the 1954-55 season," continued Woodward in his report. Of this total, 501,547 field boxes were regular-crop Valencia oranges; 1,403 field boxes were off-bloom Valencias; and 3,782 field boxes were navel oranges. The total tree crop production handled by the packing-house during the season was equivalent to 846 cars. "The total tree crop production of Valencia oranges in southern California was 45,463 carloads—a gain of 13,063 cars, or 40 per cent greater than the crop harvested during the 1953-54 season."

Gas Company Sets Record for Meters Installed The 20,748 new gas meters connected to lines in its Orange county division helped Southern Counties Gas Co., set a new record for number of meters added in one year in its system. Division Manager Justin M. Kennedy announced today.
