Show Manti Messenger, Thursday, Sept. 22, 1977 New Telephone Directory Ctetineft TuMl Boosts Impressive "Etoofls Coming September 26 by Bruce Jennings Mountain Bells Southern Utah telephone directory, with print a little darker and bigger than before, will be distributed September 26 through October 5. The basic format remains the same except for the type style, which changes as a result of a major production switch by Mountain Bell. For the first time the white pages section of the Southern Utah directory has been put together by computer. The DIRECT (Directory Project) system is being utilized this year by Mountain Bell. Listings of customers are fed into computers in Denver, where printouts are made. The actual publishing is done in Phoenix and the directories are bound in Portland. Completing the cycle of geographic contributions to the Southern Utah directory is a Francisco-baseSan group which Utahns supervises throughout the southern half of the state in distributing the books. All the work is directed from Mountain Bells Salt Lake offices, which handle all directory publications for Utah, Idaho and Montana. Its a massive project, Severson, points out Dee business office manager for Richfield. A tremendous number of people are involved and the directory covers a huge area.

He also collects them for their beauty: their natural coloration yellow, orange, brown and gray; their stark and sinewy quality. But most of all he collects them for their symbolism, for he thinks roots somehow stand for certain admirable qualities in all living things: endurance, call-guid- A root, he says, us of our relationship w reminds ith earth our ties to Mother Earth, our but also our dependence, freedom to stand alone, Fr years, in his trav els as an Sb isfAirr..

It all started with a missing $90 employee working advance that turned up in the checking with account of a a similar name. Bell Mountain security agent, Tom Coley, was dispatched to a small Colorado town to investigate the case. According to Jesse Averhart, area security supervisor for Mountain Bell, the investigation led to a spry, tobacco-chewinlady who readily admitted that she had indeed deposited the check in question. When asked why she cashed the check, the lady said she thought it was in payment for her goat, Agnes. It seems Agnes broke her leg when she stepped into a post hole. The lady figured the post hole belonged to the phone company. Agnes is cured now, but walks with a slight limp. The vets bill came to $100.
