Redkey Telephone Problems Caused by 'Short Dialing' REDKEY Residents here are having a tough time breaking the habit of "short dialing" the practice of using only the last five digits of a seven-digit telephone number to make local calls. According to General Telephone hundreds of Incomplete calls are being made daily because they are "short dialed." The calls result in either a recording or a busy signal, but never in the caller reaching the party he wanted. GTE reports the short dialing method no longer Is effective due to equipment changes to convert Redkey telephone codes to more convenient nationwide codes to reach various service areas In each telephone company. So dialing all seven digits is necessary for local calls. ON J'HIi "I I HI 11 l.ltl ON VIM- 1 I It I 111 M- Ml IK I IO 1 1 Ml I III 1m.mMi.hI lit, Hul.
