Many phone receivers from public pay stations of the Xew England Telephone and '. graph Company have been ripped from their attachments to provide ear pieces for Radio listeners. The thieves, however, are believed to be inexperienced persons, for, the telephone officials say, the type of receiver in use for telephone sets is practically unfit for Radio use. "It was very seldom, in the days before Radio became so common," said a telephone company official, "that telephones were tampered witli in the pay stations, other than the coin boxes. But proi>. some enthusiastic but inexperienced R&diophans or else thieves who hoped to profit by their sale to Radiophans, have cut off the receivers, only to be di pointed. Apparently the word has been passed around among Radio entlius that these receivers will not work, as the thieving has died down."
