1 imball; It is my suggestion) to avoid any loer interruptions
than possible) that we Install a new xadio maatl
possibly 95 root Ugh and a new artterm which would
moan that the installation will be complete with the
cable back to the location or the radio equipment before
the present installation had to be t,uched. in any
.,
Then the equipment could be moved by a, qualified' sou 1,
and with but 4 matter of half an hour out ot service
at the
Another reaSon would be the fact that an antenna that
has been installed in the ground as this one io
could
b 'very well WOVn at the point of the ground and.
we would haVa to sacrifice some length in re-Using it
plus the raet that to re0 woad put 5rnu ov, or
service roll 4 week, The expense of that 1 am not ooln$ t
at this time because Ifim, not thoroughly 00aok

we Reel we can put it in the corner) northeasterly ,
clrner) outside or the room noted as juvenile which_
would be a relatively lesser conspicuous location and
loos objectionable from the MassaChusetts Avenue side*
That covers the radio items*
I talked 't: the telephone company and they w1I1 contact
the town to see the requints. There is ono it
and that is the. fact that the second acor telephones
in the offices have to 00MA back to the sWitchbeard in
this present building, The telephone oqapany will
lease lines which in effect will go fraa the new 144Iding
back to the central orrice and then to this bulldlua.
Cr ) If we provide) a conduit can be put in the , road
between tho new building and thin present building and
cable can be put in there for only the first cost and
there will be no rental on that* The town Will have 1,°•
decide. If the rental in throe or four years is wing ,
to cost noro than the conduit there wuld be ..trmo worth.

After you talk to the 'phone company I will get In
touch With them and do. Whatever is, best ror the town
Reed: The best would be to 418 our own treneh and probably
save limey over a period of time.
Imballt Mr. celey was hwrified at digging Up, tho lawa.
Rood: We are going. to widen the driveway and ir it Is, a
ease or resurfacing and regrading it does not 0004
that we will cut much or the lawn. The conduit would
have to be in front.
Imball: It would not have to be. We could lust ant, the drive
by the steps.
Roodt We should discuss it further with, the telephone company,

put aa alarm in With a math button on thc inalac :A" the
