Caller: I don't know his first mime, but he's an eye doctor. Operators, as do others who deal daily with the public, find that everybody has a slightly different approach to the meaning of things. *IWs is one of the reasons you may no longer hear the operator say "Information," when she. answers your call. The phrase "Directory Assistance" has been introduced by Illinois Bell. It is a more accurate description of the service the operator provides and it shpuld cut down the number of calls the girls get tfbm people who want bus departure information or stock market Quotations, ball scores, highway directions and other non-telephone tidbits.

THE CUSTOMER SAID: There once was a lady, according to lore, who called on a telephone operator for help in shortening what she thought was an extra-long cord on her telephone. "Fli hold my end of the line," she told the operator, "and you pull hard on yours. That should take up some of the slack." The lady is a legend who comes alive whenever the subject turns to funny things that happen at the telephone switchboard. Such as this exchange, reported verbatim, between an operator and a customer calling for information: Caller: Can you help me? Pm trying to call my doctor, and Pm having trouble. Operator: What kind of trouble are you having? Caller: I have a pain in my side and it's going up my back: Qrthisone> , £ Caller: cUn you*ge?*me Dr. Jones?

IT PAYS TO SHOP IN McHENRY A new program has been initiated by the board of education of Districts 15 and 156, McHenry, which permits Senior Citizens 62 years of age or older to attend school functions free of charge. - ' Organized under the Community School Concept, the program's goal is to aid the districts' senior citizens through the issuing of a complimentary pass which will permit individuals holding the card to attend athletic contests, plays, musicals and .other school functions. In addition to free admission to school functions, senior citizens will receive free tuition to all adult education classes. Hiere are no fees, dues or formal meetings. The only requirement is that individuals 62 years of age and older phone the community school office, 385-7210, extension 9, and request;a complimentary pass. If it is convenient for them to do so, they may also stop by the administration office, 3926 W. Main street, and pick up the pass. The advantage of the complimentary pass are as follows: 1. For athletic events, the card will serve as a pass for senior citizens. Ibey will not need reservations. 2. For Adult education courses or programs they must register as every other participant, however, the card will serve as the fee. 3. For musicals or plays, seats are reserved; therefore, notice of your intention to attend is necessary so that you may receive an advanced ticket or they can be left at the door the evening of the performance. 4. For any school production at which seats are not reserved the card will serve as a free pass. District 15 and 156 school beards and the Administration hope that the school -community program will provide these important members of the community with new interest and will aid those on fixed incomes. It is also hoped that each senior citizen will help publicize this program by calling it to the attention of their friends. tt is also hoped that the p rogram APPROVE PROJECT FUNDS Ray Page, Illinois Superintendent of Public Instruction, has announced that eighty-six additional Title I projects have approved for educational programs.
