      Sadly, I’ve had enough experience with phone systems that I do.

      Sounds to me like this was a phone number, specifically: 3 6316

      But at a time when phone systems were not all interconnected. So you had to be in the “Belmont” area phone system in order to call it.

        Neato. You triggered a memory. Be in the area. I rem now that it was B-2 E-3

        Pretty sure that was from the 3 letters on each number key.

        So the number was 233-6316
