President Nixon contacted the White House operator to place a follow-up call to his Chief of Staff, H. R. Haldeman. After initially requesting Haldeman, the President corrected himself and specifically asked to be connected to Mr. Holloman. This brief communication served solely as an administrative request to facilitate a telephone connection between the President and a staff member.
