3 THE SPRINGFIELD UNION, SPRINGFIELD, MONDAY, JULY 3, 1961 GREENFIELD 28 FEDERAL ST. PRESCOTT 2-6506 STUDY PLANNED BY SELECTMEN ON FIRE ALARMS Telephone Company Says New System to Cost $20,000 a Ycar men EN received A re review from the GREENFIELD The selectNew England Telephone and Telegraph Co. recently concerning operation and cost telephone emergency reporting system which might be considered as a replacement for the present fire alarm and police reporting sys- tems. John J. Jourihan, company communications consultant.

told selectmen. Friday the system "in round figures, about $20,000 per year on a lease basis." Talked With Chief He noted in his report that his talks with Fire Chief Steven Zanieski showed the present sys-! tem of reporting fire alarms is satisfactory both from an opera-, fional and maintenance standpoint. The survey found that per cent of all fire alarms are reported via the existing system with the balance by regular telephones. This! percentage, probably would not vary greatly under the emergency reporting system, the report stated. While the primary function of a new system would he the reporting of fires, the obvious advantage to the town, the report said, would come from utilizing the system to report emergencies of any nature.

The now system would make reporting of all emergencies directly available to the public. would also allow the emergency service means of obtaining exact information regarding cach case. It is felt the system would way of reducing false alarms. Zanieski noted at the meeting Friday that the town has. not been overly plagued with false alarms.

New Type Alarms 6 In the 1960 town report the department said it added two alarms to the system. These were "Arrestolarms, a type which discourages false alarms. The town report said public schools were having fire detectors installed connected directly to the system. equipment would remain in town Jourihan noted re the present hands, and. the call siren circuits would be controled manually from the switchboard after the operator determined the call to be a fire.

Selectmen plan to study the subject further. The report indicated the system would efficiently and economically dispatch men and equipment, plus assuring the caller that help was on the way. The report admitted to intention of Police Chief Mur-1 phy to furnish the three patrolmen in the business district with twoWAV radios appeared the most efficient for police purposes. It noted however, emergency telephones located throughout the town would serve as an alternate to routine police reporting. Separate Circuits The system provides that each circuit from the telephones and tie-lines be connected to a switchboard in separate circuits, so ure of one line would not affect others.

The telephone company would provide for emergency handling of any troubles detected. Restoration of service after a major disaster would take precedence over all other repair services, with the possible exceptions of military and Civil Defense installations. These would receive equal priority. The system would require a switchboard at the fire station; 110 emergency telephones to replace the 110 boxes: 23 interconnected private alarm circuits; a paging system at switchboard to alert and dispatch personnel, plus A tic-in to the police department; A circuit from switchhoard 10. police for reporting emergencies requiring police attention; a tie-line to hospital for medical emergencies; a tie-line to the chief's residence; a device automatically re-' cording the number of the telephone used, and a recording machine to record the voice of the person reporting the fire or emergency and several technical changes.
