POLICE NOTES Deregulation frees long distance lines Continued from Page 1) %T&T; Direct long distance dailing is part of the federal government's deregulation of AT&T. Last January the Federal Communications Commission ruled that phone users should enjoy the same .access to private long distance com- panies as to AT&T. Customers should take a hard look at alternative long distance services, said Len Singer, a spokesman for Michigan $Bell. S "CUSTOMERS NOW should analyze P 7 0 Phone 764-0558 their telephone bills and evaluate the various companies accordingly to find the cheapest rates to the places they call the most," Singer said. "Choosing the best long distance company for them is like finding out the cheapest flight to any place out of town," he added. The switchover, however, will not af- fect residents in the University's dor- mitories. For at least another year, students still will be required to dial additional numbers in order to get ac- cess to long distance companies other than AT&T. THE UNIVERSITY plans to install its own phone network by 1986 that will combine several long distance com- panies to get the cheapest routes for calls from dorms and offices on cam-* pus, Block said. At that time students will begin receiving phone bills from the University and not outside long distance companies, she added. "Eventually we will be subscribing to several different ,long distance ser- vices. But right now we'll be staying with AT&T," Block said. Michigan Bell will hook up customers to the company of their choice without an extra charge and will complete the switchover in two phases, Wroblewski said. On Dec. 1, Ann Arbor residents with the following phone number prefixes will be given dial "1" access: 662, 663, 665, 668, 763, and 764. The remaining ex- changes will be converted on Feb. 16, 1985. The deregulation of the phone in- dustry has allowed private long distan- ce companies to use satellites instead of telephone lines to transmit calls. This switch has decreased charges and in- creased the speed of transmission, said Sarah Pentok, a sales representative for MCI. Customers of MCI and other alter- native phone companies, however, will not be able to make collect or person-to- person calls, Pentok added. Braine was thrown onto the hood of Durfee's car and then went through the windshield, Suomala said. Yesterday, Braine was listed in fair condition at University Hospital, ac- cording to Stephen Hause, a hospital spokesman. He said he could not elaborate on the type of injuries she received. The driver had not been drinking, Suomala said. Stereo system stolen A stereo, speaker, small amount of cash, and flashlights, all valuing less than $850 were stolen early Tuesday morning during a break-in on the 1200 block of Prospect, Ann Arbor police Sgt. Jan Suomala said yesterday. He said burglars entered through an unlocked door. Video recorder snatched A video recorder valued- at less than $725 was stolen during a break-in Tuesday afternoon on the 200 block of N. State Street. According to police, a prowler gained entrance by cutting a screen to get into a window. -Georgea Kovanis f' a DRINKING AND DRIVING CAN KILL A FRIENDSHIP U. S.
