But for a while they had a "breakdown in communications." The phone bell in their hotel room wag pitched so low they often didn't answer their calls. "Never knew if it waa for us or not," Buck said, "always sounded far off-like it was ringing in someone else's room." Finally, Buck hit on the obvious solution. He just made a deal with the hotel switch board operator that whenever she called them she'd use two Ion; rings and a short -their party-line signal back home.
