DDD Coming Decemher 13
Direct Distance Dialing, tbe fut way to make >tation-to-sta- tioti long distance calls, goes into service this Sunday, December 13 for residence of Huntley.
Illinois Bell Telephone Comp¬ any Manager Don Leg^ner says special operators have attempted to reach all residents in the area to offer an explanation of how the new service works.
"The actual changeover in serv¬ ice will take place at 12:01 a.m. on Sunday morningf," Legner said. "After that time, telephone users win be able to dial their own calls direct."
After the call has been dialed— and while it is speeding on its way—an operator will come on the line for a moment and ask the caller for his own telephone num¬ ber, Legner pointed out.
Direct Distance Dialling is pos¬ sible l>ecause the United States and Canada are divided into more thail 100 telephone areas, each with its own ^figure Ag^ft^fflxie. . ¦ .figner ^^ifceiT'lfSfW wdj 555-2360 in San FYancisco, f<M' example, a telephone user using DDD would dial the figure "1,"' which routes his cali to the Direct Distance Dialing equipment, then "415," the Area Code for San Francisco, and then 555-2368.
With t!»e change, telephone users will also be able to dial direct to Chicago {md its surrounding sub¬ urbs' by simply dialing "1" and then the tel^hone number.
Complete instructions on the new service ar6 included in the dialing guide, "Introducing Di¬ rect Distance Dialing," which has been mailed to all residents in the area, Legner said.
E>en with DDD, operators will fctill be needed to handle the special services only operators can perform, such as person-to-person, credit card and collect calls.
"And, of course, our c^>erators will still be on hand around the clock to handle any type of emer¬ gency call," Legner said.

Mailing Ne-ws
To he absolutely sure of on-time • delivery, out-of-town Christms cards should be put in the mail by December 16 at the latest. Post- caster Richard Michelsen warned. ,
The Huntley Post Offfce will be open from 8:00 am. to 5;30 pjn. from December V2 until Christ¬ mas, so that patrons may purchase stamps and mail cards and pack- ¦ ages.
The postmaster also noted that there is more to the four new ' Christmas stamps than just a pretty design.
"Each of the gaily colored hol¬ iday messengers can trigger a vast amount of postal ser\ice for • you," he said.
"The five-cent postage provides first-class mail privileges for i Christmas cards. This means they may be forwarded or returned if undeliverable and they receive the normal first-class priority in hand¬ ling and delivery.
"Of course, the stamps will be good for all mailing purposes for which postage stamps are used."
A four-cent ''"^Inp will take an unsealed car^^pl^ith no written message in it anywhere in the l/nited ^StfOe&.lMit t..,;^aaalk-''ha^- ..forwarfited or return^V'UHdeliv- era'ble. .'^^_
