Riven at a morning address by
the Rev. Matthias Burger, O.S.B.
The four features of the Catholic
faith according to Father Burger

mental value of the visible world,
their works of charity and their
assessment of the value of the
individual man.

Street scene in Tehachcpi after last July's earthquah-..
...EARTHQUAKE..
Iii the predawn of last July 21, the most
severe California earthquake since 1906 struck
the small town of Tchachapi.
Walls were collapsing, buildings were fold
ing. The town's telephone office shook to its
foundation. But the night operator remained
at her switchboard until it went dead. Main
cables to the office were pulled to the ground
when a nearby wall caved in.
This was at 4:50 A.M.
By 8:30 A.M. telephones were set up on the
edge of town for use by the Red Cross and
other emergency workers.
By late afternoon, the telephone switch
board was working. Tehachapi residents were «
able to contact friends and relatives concerned
about their safety.
By 9 P.M. two TV stations were sending live
telecasts of the damage. Telephone men had
established a radio-relay system in less than
12 hours.
It was a typical disaster — brutal and un
announced. But telephone men were prepared.
They quickly restored communication when
it was needed most. They demonstrated the
resourcefulness and' technical skill typical of
telephone people.
These are some of the qualities we seek in
the college graduates we hire. Your Place
ment Officer can give you details about oppor
tunities for employment in the Bell System.
