Gftcrt ErJny, March 17
Beginning March 17, subscrib
ers in the six-county area serv
ed by Norfolk & Carolina Tele
phone & m Telegraph Company,
will have "seven-digit, instead of
the present four-digit, numbers.
Company president L. S.
Blades, Jr., said complete de
tails ' will be released March 1
: and new directories will be mail
ed that day.
Inside " plant Superintendent
S. O. Alexander explained that
the change-over will not involve
new dialing techniques it will
simply add a three-digit prefix
exchange number. ;
: Long distance calls will con
tinue to be made in . the usual
manner until October 6 when
the company joins the nation
wide, Direct Distance Dialing
system. . ,
' The March conversion is a step
, toward that and in October an
- area code of three more numbers i
will be added, making it then
possible to dial directly to long
distance exchanges.
MOst present basic numbers
will be unchanged, except in the
town of Hertford where com
pletely new numbers will be re-
quired because of a revamping
and expansion of the central of
fice equipment..
. In the other exchanges, Eliza
beth City, Edenton, Sunbury,
Coinjock, Mamie, Kill Devil
Hills, Manteo and Buxton, the
only - changes in basic numbers
will be caused by changes , in
service from 10-party to 4-party
lines, or from party to private
ilnes for example. r ,-.
Alexander estimated the chang
es in basic numbers in Elizabeth
City, the Iargest.,office, at fewer
thai 20..'"'; ?
-He" saf8"VTffin?Tiew
numbershave been attached 'to'
' phones which have been serviced
recently and 'estimated thaf 'lO'
per cent already have them.'M'
"We will ' mail the others'" on
adhesive stickers with 'the
monthly' bills The first group
will go, out Monday,1' he said.'
A complete list of new ex
change prefix numbers will be
released March 1, but in Eliza
beth City which will, in effect,
have two beginning with 2. 4, 5

ScliGilulsd -0a March 6th
' 'With the Market Hog Show
and. .Sale on Wednesday, March
6, " interest is very good among
the people in Perquimans Coua
ty, with 400 hogs being con
signed," states R.. M.. Thompson,
County Extension Chairman. Of
course, some of these hogs will
be too light or too heavy for the
show, -but there should be over
200 that should qualify for the
show and sale. These hogs can
be weighed at all three of the
Hog Buying Stations Miller and
Humphlett, Joel Hollowell gt Son
or Gwaltney, on the morning
with the show starting that af
ternoon at 1:00.
John Chi istian, Livestock Spe-!
cialist, will put on a demonstra
tion that should be of interest
to all farmers at 7:00 that night.
This will be a carcass demonstra
tion and we hope that all the
farmers will take this opportuni
ty to observe the difference in
the Cut Outs of the No. 1 and
No. 3 hogs.
"The sale will start at 8:00
and they will be sold in lots of
30. This should make a very
interesting show and sale, and ifl
you are ' not participating with
hogs,- you should take this op
portunity to come In and see
this show and sale," also states
Mr. Thompson.
