Kendall brothers run Kendall telephone service forty three years
Kendall Wisconsin residents Joe and Ollie Novy have run the local telephone business for 43 years. They bought Kellogg Telephone Switchboard in 1934 and have seen progress from candlestick and crank phones to a modern dial system in a brick building. Joe repairs outages with lineman Dick Martin, and the office uses IBM billing for residents and rural customers. Uncle Joe entertains with an electric concertina and invites tours of the office.
