The first Hendrix cable in Athens County runs from Ohio University heating plant to the Masonic Temple in the alley behind The Messenger and Frisch's Restaurant. Frank Shay of Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric Co. says the aluminum insulated line uses 15 000 volt polyethylene and is supported by a messenger cable and heavy duty plastic hangers. The six man crew led by Ivan Martin installed it, replacing old pole arms and promising greater current capacity with less space. The line could be increased in voltage nearly fourfold if needed.
