These clippings are then pasted to forms which freauently resemble invoices, and these forms are then mailed to the companies.' Mr. Griflin noted that, opera ting under the erroneous assumption as-sumption that they have received receiv-ed an invoice for the renewal of their listing in the classified telephone drectory or other established esta-blished directory, many executives execu-tives have approved payment as designated on the form. v - Mr. Griffins warning conun- "In many or most cases, the ed signs to designate the area.
