ROSELLE PARK, N. J., March
26—(A 3 )—Patrolman Robert Pudan-

BURGLARY IS SO-O-O TIRING
ATLANTA (A 5 ) — Reconstructed
from the evidence, here’s what hap
pened:
A burglar broke into a chemical
company’s office, armed with burg
lary tools and some whisky. He
took a drink or two then ransacked
some drawers with no results.
Another nip and he broke open
a metal box. No money.
Whisky low, he built a fire from
trash. Then he went into an ad
joining office, built another fire,
tried unsuccessfully to open a safe,
finished his whisky and wieht to
sleep.
An early-arriving employe found
him asleep beside the dead fire
awoke, yawned, asked “Is there
any place 1 can get to taxi around
here at this time of day?” Then
he walked away before the flab
bergasted employe could stop him
—leaving his burglar kit behind.

A CAMPUS-TO-CAREER CASE HISTORY
e ’ i
Emmett Smith, E. E., ’50, never
heard of telephone traffic work, hut
what he saw of the job intrigued him.
He explains how it worked out.
(Reading time: 40 seconds)
Emmett Smith supervises operation of this trainine
switchboard, which he originally helped to design.

“Communications have always been one
of my main interests — in the Navy and
at the University of Michigan. So I
was very happy when the Michigan Bell
Telephone Company invited me to visit
their headquarters to talk about a job.
“In Detroit I had a chance to look
at a number of departments, including
one I’d never heard of before, the Traffic
Department. I found that, in addition to
the engineering of switchboards, its
work involved the supervision and the
actual handling of customer calls. It
struck me like a wonderful opportunity
to combine staff engineering and field
management. 1
