Abstract: A method of seaming an on-machine-seamable multiaxial papermaker's fabric to prevent yarn migration. The multiaxial fabric is in the form of an endless loop flattened into two layers along fold lines. CD yarns are removed from the folds to create extended ravel areas. This leaves the MD yarns unbound in the ravel areas. Seam loops are then formed from the unbound MD yarns at the folds. CD materials (e.g. continuous CD yarns) are affixed to (rewoven into) the fabric along the edges of the ravel area at each fold. The affixed CD materials bind the CD yarn tails along the edges of the ravel areas to prevent migration of CD yarn tails into the seam area.

Abstract: An apparatus identifying a class of called telephone lines by extending an identity signal back over the called line to a calling central operator or control. The identifier apparatus includes a signal identity generator connected to the called line, a signal decoder located at a calling central control such as an operator cordboard or traffic service position (TSPS), and a time-out for deactivating the generator after a predetermined time period has elapsed. A method is also set forth where a uniquely coded signal is extended over the communication line to an operator when an "OFF HOOK" condition appears from the called line to warn the operator that the called line is not authorized to receive collect calls.
