Berkeley Begins Nationwide Direct Dialing Today
Berkeley becomes the first city west of the Mississippi to use nationwide direct dialing at 12:01 a m on Sunday. About 19 000 households in Thornwall 1 3 and 5 minute areas gain three digit area codes for direct calls to cities like New York City with no operator assistance. G Worthington Pacific Telephone Telestar district manager says the nation is divided into numbering areas to enable direct dialing. Subscribers can also dial many more California cities including Walnut Creek as Sunday nears and Concord and Antioch will follow by year end with more communities planned for 1958 as Bell System moves toward nationwide toll dialing.
