Martinson , execu- tive director of the Suffolk County Park commission. Mr. Martinsen sai<i that school groups are welcome without charge Tuesdays through Fridays , preferably in the mornings , provided they have proper supervi- sion and make arrangements ahead of time. The museum drew 25, 000 visitors up to September 1. It is open weekdays except Monday from 10 a. m. to 4 p. m., and on Sundays from noon to 5 p. m. — - ^ - ---; ' ¦ =^r- =r. - —-- Visiting Days Extended At Vanderbilt Museum The first in a series of 10 classes in elementary piloting will bo offered September 22 at Patchogue High school by the Patchogue Bay Pow- er Squadron , it was announc- ed this week by Commander Everett Dunkerley through his chairman of advanced grades , Donald Blakeslee. The course , for which there is no charge , will be given caf h Monday at 8:30 p. m. All citizens over lfi years of age , whether or not they own boats , may take advant- age of this course , which is offered , Comdr. Dunkerley said , for the \furtherance of better and safer boating. \ Beg inning Piloting Class To Start September 22 Sisterhood Meeting Opens New Season; Group Hears Rabbi The Sisterhood of the Patchogue Jewish Cente r met Monday night for the first session of the new year with Mrs. Al Wise , president , presiding. Reports of the committee chair- men were read and Mrs. Nat Cole , program chairman , introduced Rabbi Seymour Wadler who ad- d ressed the group. Refreshments were served by Mrs. Elizabeth Judelson and her committee. The next meeting of the Sister- hood will be the annual get-to- gether at the Center on October 6. ' Mighty Midget Tester Of Dial 'Phone Off ices A gadget that deliberately over- loads a new dial telephone cen- tral office , so the untried equip- ment may be thoroughly tested before it handles subscribers ' calls , is now being used by the New York Telephone Company. This test box dubbed the \Mighty Midget , \ first used in the Chicago telephone system , has already been used at a number of places. It has contributed , for instance , to the efficient smooth-running dial con- versions in Hempstead , Garden City, Belle Harbor and Manhasset , on Long Island. t The Midget' s great advantage over previous testing tools is in the number of calls it can origi- nate: one for every sender in the central office. In case you don 't know , a sender is the automatic brain of the dial system—that part of the equipment which receives the dialed impulses , sorts them out and sends them on the right paths to complete the call. If a central office has 90 senders , the Midget can originate 90 calls simultaneously. Thus 100 \ calls \ by the device means 9 , 000 calls routed through parts of the cen- tral office. .»11 these calls , travel- ing through parts of the system, ferret out the mechanical difficul - ties which may be quickly cleared before the exchange ' goes into service , saving considerable time and trouble later. It' s another way of providing better telephone service. Approximately 96 per cent of the 148 million miles of telephone wire in the Bell System is en- closed in cables. Bus Adds Tri p For Middle Road School Children The Utility Bus line is adding another tri p to its schedule of runs between Patchogue and West Sayville on Middle road through Bayport and Blue Point. This is being done to accommodate pupils from St. Lawrence Parochial Ele- mentary school who have been forced by the present bus sched- ule to wait about an hour in Say- ville for transportation. This addition was secured through the efforts of a group of parents of Blue Point and Bay- port , who went to Rockville Cen- tre last Wednesday and petitioned President Harry Carter of the Bee Line , Inc., which runs local bus line , for better accommodation for the children. The group included Mrs. How- ard Duga n , Mrs. Fred Cirillo , Mrs. Pat Prizzi , Mrs. George Gelfer and Albert Schmidt of Blue Point and Mrs. Marie Scopinich of Bay- port. The new run , which begins Monday, will leave Patchogue at 2:10 p. m., going west by Middle road to West Sayville , which it will leave on the return tri p at 2:28 , and Sayville at 2:30 , return- ing to Pa tchogue via Middle road. No present run will be eliminated. This bus also will pick up and discharge regular passengers along its route , thus answering some of the complaints of poor service on the part of south side residents. New Cross-Sta te Mic rowave Route Exp ands TV and 'Phone Channels Temporary aluminum towers , like one above , are budt by Bel' System engineers in \ path-testing \ for new radio relay TV air telephone routes. Completion of a microwave ra- dio relay television and telephone route across New York State be- tween Albany and Bu.Talo , and the extension of the nationwide TV network from Buffalo into Canada , to form the first . international video hook-up, are scheduled to take place during the latter half of 1952 , it was announced recently. Parts of the \ cross-state \ route already carry television programs between Albany and Syracuse and between Buffalo and Rochester. Work , by the Long Lines Depart- ment of the A. T. & T., however , is now in progress in building the radio relay system to fill the 80- mile gap between Syracuse and Rochester , the completion of which is to take place some time this fall. Buffalo , thus destined to play a major role in the nation ' s televi- sion network , will then be reached by the two TV channels from New York via Albany. At present , pro- grams going to Buffalo and vicin- ity arrive in a single channel through coaxial cable from Cleve- land. On the state-wide system three relay towers of the open steel type will be erected at Van Buren , 11 miles northwest of Syracuse; at Phelps , 30 miles southeast of Rochester , and at Pinnacle Hill , just south of Rochester. They will be 150, 175 and 112 feet high , re- spectively. The present 75-foot tower atop the telephone building in Syracuse wil l be replaced by a i 100-foot one. • When in service , the system across the State will provide six two-way broadband radio relay channels between Albany and B L . falo. Two channels will be usi for westbound television tran: mission between Albany and Bui falo and the balance will be use for telephone circuits and for add tional TV channels as required. The telephone channels will pn vide initially about 550 long dii tance circuits through the Albany Syracuse section and 400 throug the Syracuse-Buffalo section. On the international TV link, radio relay system between Bui falo and Toronto will be ready foi the opening in August of the Ca nadian Broadcasting Company ' ; first TV station at Toronto . Exten sions of this route to Montreal and Ottawa are planned for 1953 , a. \ cording to the announcement. The 65-mile route to ToronV begins atop the main telephom center at 65 Franklin Street , Buf- falo. Microwaves will be dis patched 23 miles northwest to 8 relay station at Fonthill , Ontario The system will ue of the type that is capable of carrying hun- dreds of telephone conversations or several TV programs . From this point the signals will be beamed 41 miles across the western er.d of Lake Ontario to Toronto in ime of the longest over water hops :i the entire network Prior to Hie erection of micro wave towers for this and othei routes , much preliminary work is done. In this \ path-testir.^, \ for in stance , temporary aluminum tow ers are erected and portable an tennas raised to various heights , to determine the most suitable locations.

To Roosevelt in Remote Mountain Camp 1 a \\ i I The dramatic story of how Theo- dore Roosevelt received his sum- mons to the Presidency 50 years ago by telephone and messengers in remote Adirondack country is told in an article by Richmond B.

Word of the tragic event came to the outdoor-loving Vice-President Roosevelt by a telephone call to an island in Lake Champlain where he was attending an outin g of the Vermont Fish and Game League. He rushed to Buffalo and remained there several days , until he was assured by doctors that the Presi- dent would almost certainly re- cover. TR then left Buffalo to join his family at a sportsman ' s club camp deep in the Adirondacks , about 12 miles southwest of Mount Marcy. • The camp was in one of the most remote spots in the country, 35 miles from the nearest railroad , at North Creek , also the point of the nearest telegraph line. For- tunately, however, a lone single- wire grounded telephone circuit extended over the 25 miles from North Creek to Tahawus , where the sportsman ' s club' s main house was located. There Mike Breen in charge would relay Buffalo mes- sages coming via telegraph to North Creek and telephone to Ta- hawus by messengers to the Roose- velt camp 10 miles farther north .
