Communication Center , , works like real switchboard

Now the children can have their own private telephone switch-

board and hold secret, closed-circuit business conferences just

like many companies do. 50-foot cable allows them to make calls

from one room to another. Here's the way it works: you press a but–

ton on your phone extension and the board lights up, a flag drops

and a bell rings until the operator plugs in. It's simple to operate and

packed with hours of good fun. 2, 3, 4 or 5 people can use the switch–

board for calls at one time. To call the extension, phone operator

presses a switch and clear signal is heard at the other end. The set

also has a coder and decoder, siren radar warning signal, message

pad for jotting down notes and an operator's name plate. Switch–

board comes complete with one operator's phone connected to

board and one extension phone and hanger. Additional phone ex–

tensions can also be ordered (board will handle up to 3 extra

phones). 4 batteries are included. Made of high impact plastic to

resist breaking. 9x6x11 inches.
