The average time required for a McHenry county number -- 30 seconds. - But if the request is for a number in Chicago or its suburbs, that number is not readily available to the county operator. "A person can get a Chicago or suburban number easily and quickly by dialing direct to the Chicago information center, 1 312 555-1212," said Mrs. Margaret Barton, Woodstock's chief operator. Calls to the center are referred to the information operator who has the numbers for the particular area the person wants to call. "That's why we refer all people who request Chicago and suburban numbers to the Chicago information center number -- it really means faster and better service for the telephone user," Mrs. Barton said. Calls for numbers in McHenry county could lead to a longer search if the operators didn't first ask, "information, for what city please?" "When customers give us the name of the town with their request, it helps us to give them the fast, efficient kind of service they expect and want from us," Mrs. Barton said. The Woodstock information center is one of twenty-one Illinois Bell local information centers maintained throughout Illinois, excluding those in Metropolitan Chicago. The state staff numbers 213 and handles about 100,750 requests on an average business day. In the early days of telephoning, operators handled information duties as well as many others. But the increase in telephoning and a growing need for communications speed, dictated that information-finding be handled by specialists. The unecessary kindnesses seem to be so much more appreciated than the necessary ones. OVER COUNTER SALE OF LICENSE PLATES BEGINS Over-the-counter sale of 1965 'motor vehicle license plates in Springfield and Chicago and mailing of plates will began Tuesday, Dec. 1, Secretary of State William H. Chamberlain has announced. Feb. 15 will again be the deadline for displaying current plates, marking the tenth consecutive year that date has been observed. Secretary Chamberlain emphasized that Feb. 15 is a deadline for having the 1965 plates displayed on the vehicles, not merely a deadline for submitting applications. To meet that deadline, motorists applying by mail should have their applications in the Secretary of State's office by Feb. 1, Mr. Chamberlain said. He again reminded motorists registering 1965 model cars that they must answer the question on the application blank concerning the presence of safety seat belts in the front seat of the vehicles. State law requires that all new cars sold in Illinois after last July 1 be equipped with the seat belts. Plates will be mailed, at the rate of about 35,000 sets a day, in numerical and alphabetical sequence, a procedure made necessary by space limitations which prevent having a large number of plates on hand at one time. Motorists who requested reassignment of numbers with letter prefixes in which the first letter is in the middle of the alphabet will not receive their plates until those letters are reached in the sequence, but they will all receive their plates in time for the display deadline, Secretary Chamberlain said.
