The Nebraska Directory Company is compiling a telephone book due out later this year. Rex Story, part-owner of the year-old business, predicts a good reception for his version, which also contains yellow, white and blue pages. Lincoln needs another phone directory, he said, because Lincoln businessmen need an alternative to the rates they now pay for advertising in the LTT yellow pages. ' "NDC can charge 48 percent of what the tele phone company charges for yellow page ads and still make a profit." . As an example, Story said a half-column ad in his company's phone book costs $52 a month, while a corresponding ad in the present book costs $105 a month: Russ's IGA store manager Rich Malousek said the new directory's prices were the best thing that ever happened." He plans to stop advertising in the pres ent phone book. "I think the phone company is going to find them selves with a very slender phone book next year," Malousek said. Edward Wood, president of Wood Brothers buid ing products company, said that because the yellow pages are his company's only means of advertising, he probably would advertise in both books. This would guarantee saturation of the market, he said. Art Thompson of LTT said he didn't know what effect the new book would have because it isn't out yet. He said LTT has published a phone book since 1903 and has done the job well. - .
