GENERAL INDEX
1962
R. L. POLK & CO., publishers of more than 1,000 city, county, state and national Directories, present to subscribers and the general public, this, the 1962 edition of the Indianapolis Suburban Area Directory, which includes Augus - ta, Beech Grove, Ben Davis, Castleton, Clermont, Crows Nest, Cumberland, Highwoods, Homecroft, Lawrence, Mars Hill, Meridian Hills, New Augusta, North Crows Nest, Ravenswood, Rocky Ripple, Shooters Hill, Shore Acres, Southport, Speedway, Spring Hills, Warren Park, Williams Creek, Woodstock, Wynnedale, and the Marion County rural route residents.
Confidence in the growth of the community's industry, population and wealth, and in the advancement of its civic and social activities will be maintained as sections of this Directory are consulted, for the Directory is a mirror truly re- flecting the community to the world.
The enviable position occupied by R. L. POLK & CO.'S Directories in the estimation of the public, throughout the country, has been established by ren- dering the best in Directory service. With an unrivaled organization, and hav- ing had the courteous and hearty cooperation of the business and professional men and residents, the publishers feel that the result of their labors will meet with the approval of every user, and that the Indianapolis Suburban Area Direc- tory will fulfill its mission as a source of authentic information pertaining to the community.
Five Major Departments E77540
The five major departments are arranged in the following order :--
I. THE BUYERS' GUIDE constitutes the first major department, printed on goldenrod paper, and contains the advertisements of leading manufacturing, busi- ness and professional interests of the Indianapolis Suburban Communities. The advertisements are indexed under headings descriptive of the business repre- sented. This is reference advertising at its best, and merits a survey by all buyers eager to familiarize themselves with sources of supply. In a progres- sive area like the Indianapolis Suburban Communities, the necessity of having this kind of information immediately available, is obvious. General apprecia- tion of this fact is evidenced by the many reference users of this City Directory service.
II. THE CLASSIFIED BUSINESS DIRECTORY is the second major depart- ment, printed on canary paper. This department lists the names of all business and professional concerns in alphabetical order under appropriate headings. This feature constitutes an invaluable and indispensable catalog of the numerous interests of the community. The Directory is the common intermediary between buyer and seller. As such, it plays an important part in the daily activities of the commercial, industrial and professional world. More buyers and sellers meet through the Classified Business Directory than through any other medium.
III. THE ALPHABETICAL LIST OF NAMES of residents and business and professional concerns, is the third major department, printed on white paper. This is the only record in existence that aims to show the name, marital status, occupation and address of each adult resident of the Indianapolis Suburban Com- munities and the name, official personnel, nature and address of each firm and corporation in the communities.
IV. THE DIRECTORY OF HOUSEHOLDERS, INCLUDING STREET AND AV- ENUE GUIDE is the fourth major department, printed on green paper. In this section the numbered streets are arranged in numerical order, followed by the named streets in alphabetical order; the numbers of the residences and business concerns are arranged in numerical order under the name of each street, and the names of the householders and concerns are placed opposite the numbers. The names of the intersecting streets appear at their respective crossing points on each street. Special features of this section are the designation of tenant- owned homes and the listing of telephone numbers.
V. THE NUMERICAL TELEPHONE DIRECTORY is the fifth major depart- ment, printed on blue paper.

INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL INDEX
Community Publicity
The Directory reflects the achievements and ambitions of the area, depict- ing in unbiased terms what it has to offer as a place of residence, as a business location, as a manufacturing site and as an educational center. To broadcast this information, the publishers have placed copies of this issue of the Directory in Directory Libraries, where they are readily available for free public refer- ence, and serve as perpetual and reliable advertisements of the Indianapolis Suburban Area communities.
The Indianapolis Directory Library
Through the courtesy of the publishers of the Indianapolis Suburban Area Directory, a Directory Library is maintained at Indianapolis Public Library Business Branch, 150 N. Meridian, for free reference by the general public. This is one of more than 1,000 Directory Libraries installed in the chief cities of the U. S. and Canada by members of the Association of North American Dir- ectory Publishers, under whose supervision the system is operated.
The publishers appreciatively acknowledge the recognition by those progres - sive business and professional men who have demonstrated their confidence in the City Directory as an advertising medium, with assurance that it will bring a commensurate return.

-thus assuring you the ultimate service that skill and care can produce in the way of City Directories or other reference media, and providing pro- tection against fraudulent advertising schemes which operate under the name of Directories.
The following "Standards of Practice," adopted at the inception of the Association of North American Directory Publishers in 1898, and strictly ad- hered to over the years, is your guarantee of satisfactory Directory Service.
The publisher of a Directory should dedicate his best efforts to the cause of business uplift and social service, and to this end pledges himself:
1. To consider, first, the interest of the user of the book.
2. To subscribe to and work for truth, honesty and accuracy in all departments.
3. To avoid confusing duplication of listings, endeavoring to classify every concern under the one head- ing that best describes it, and to treat additional listings as advertis- ing, to be charged for at regular rates.
4. To increase public knowledge of what Directories contain; to study public needs and make Direc- tories to supply them; to revise and standardize methods and classifica- tions, so that what is wanted may be most easily found, and the Direc- tory be made to serve its fullest use
as a business and social reference book and director of buyer and seller.
5. To decline any advertisement which has a tendency to mislead or which does not conform to business integrity.
6. To solicit subscriptions and ad- vertising solely upon the merits of the publications.
7. To avoid misrepresentation by statement or inference regarding circulation, placing the test of refer- ence publicity upon its accessibility to seekers, rather than on the num- ber of copies sold.
8. To co-operate with approved organization and individuals en- gaged in creative advertising work.
9. To avoid unfair competition.
10. To determine what is the highest and largest function of Directories in public service, and then to strive in every legitimate way to promote that function.
$100 Reward will be paid by the Association of North American Directory Publishers for the arrest and conviction of any person or persons engaged in the publishing, collecting or canvassing for any fraudulent or fake directories.
