Abstract: A compact, integrally molded message control center having a configuration easily and expensively formed by conventional molding processes including a plurality of upwardly opening parallel receptacles suitable for messages and an open bottom suitable for storage is provided. The front wall of the unit is inclined at an angle toward the back of the unit and supports a digital time and date unit and a cross lined chart on which personnel availability and location may be maintained by the movement of magnetic markers. Coordinated indentifying indicia are positioned along two sides of the unit, and these indicia are further coordinated with other indentifying indicia positioned on the front of the unit in combination with the chart.
