BY MARGARET "PEG" GRANTly Hills taking the first two gamâ€" [ The Beverly Hills "Bantam A" softball team began their seaâ€" son of ball on May 28 and ended it this month by capturing the Ontario Amateur Softball Assoâ€" ciation Championship. During league play, they were undefeated in 12 games, making them eligible to enter the semiâ€" finals of North York against the Avenue Road Lions. This was a best of three series with Beverâ€" CHAMPIONS FOR ‘66: Obviously pleased with 30 wins in 35 games played the Beverly Hills, Banâ€" tam "A" teams pose with cups and trophies while working their way right up to win the Ontario Amateur Softball Championship.

In fact, the first "directories" were simply cards with listed names of all subscribers and which early subscribers could keep by their telephone. The first tiny bookâ€"type directories in 1880 also just listed the names of those who had teleâ€" Rud s "2 OD00."4.0 iha cwherribere were 1000 AISO JTSL MMMAN O MIT O NILICELC ihace phones. A little later numbers for the subscribers were added. Sometimes the books explained to the customer how to speak over the telephone; warned him not to use the telephone during an electrical storm or gave the hours that service was available. Ads for everything from shoes and livery stables to corsets, mineral water and stoves, brightened the Pages. Today‘s directories also contain a fund of information. A section at the beginning of the book is ready for you to jot down numbers you might need in an emergency. Just by flipping through the inâ€" n coontare naves vou can find out how to place a con: troductory pages you can Nnd ONL 2V" "* 50000 eall ference call, a call to vehicles and ships at sea or calls to 150 foreign countries. They list the Area Code numâ€" bers for many places across Canada and the United States so that yow can place long distance calls faster. And, for the many Ontario and Quebec communities which now have Direct Distance Dialing, the directories explain all about the long distance calls: that you can place yourself. Also, for communities which have tollâ€"free calling with nearby centres, lists of these communities are provided. There‘s all this and more in the front of your telephone book . . . and in addition at the beginnlnf of the Yellow Pages there is a whole page of postal information. Why not let your directory help you get the most out of all the service that is now built into your telephone? " " o Know anyone having a wedding anniversary soon?

On any anniversary a telephone call to local or outâ€"ofâ€"town friends is welcome. Your voice will be one of the most treasured gifts your friends receive. Fifty years ago a telephone repair superintendent drew up a set of rules to guide his men in their work. This was part of his advice: "Treat everyone as you like to be treated, but don‘t tarest vour horse If vou want to know the horse‘s side "Treat everyone as you like to be freated, DHT ©UN * forget your horse. If you want to know the horse‘s side of it, just take off your coat and hat some zero day, hitch yourself to the same post with your belt and stand there about two hours.
