Crosby Residents Hear Telephone Service Plan
Crosby residents learned of a General Telephone plan to replace Crosby facilities with modern equipment by 1967 with toll free dialing to Houston late in 1968. The plan adds selective ringing, expands two and four party lines, extends feeder cables from 1963, and assesses Crosby costs separate from Baytown rates. Banking director Don Ramsey was named to Crosby State Bank to fill an unexpired term. Thanksgiving events included a library club luncheon and a First Baptist Church supper. a birthday party for Steven Ene and opera attendance were noted. New Huffman Methodist Church services were held with a sermon on Gratitude.
