Development of Underground Cable a Big Achievement
The article traces the shift from overhead to underground telephone cables in major cities, noting how early efforts began with pole lines and roof tops. It highlights the 1887 twisted pair underground conductor that revolutionized construction, and cites the growth of underground plant to over 26 million miles, with more than 36 percent of wire in the Tell System now underground. It describes cable vaults and the central office terminal room, and recalls a fire department access incident involving Mrs Mary E Stineman and Miss Olive Pentelow on a party line that helped save lives.
