ploye's name is typed on a strip at the bottom of the board. Goif tees on the tbp row indicate that the employee is at his regular place of assignment. When an employee leaves, he notifies the switchboard operator and she moves his golf tee to the hole opposite the expected hour of return. A black line on each tee acts as a minute hand to give the switchboard hour-and-minute information on each employee. As shown in tlrc photo, the operator "pegs" an individual at a meeting and turns the tee to indicate he's due back at his desk by 1:55. Home phone numbers are kept on the chart at the top of the Peg-Board.
