HOW IT STARTED
How did this"com puterized
e ra " start?
Well, you can thank, or
blame, it all on an Arm y sur
geon.
L t. Col. John Shaw B illin g s,
who served as a surgeon d u r
ing the C ivil War, suggested to
the U.S. Census Bureau, just
p rio r to the 1880 count, that
various data might be re
corded on a single card o r slip
of paper by punching small
holes on lt. He noted that these
cards might then be assorted
and counted by mechanical

means according to any se
lected group of these perfora
tions.
So, fo r you history buffs,
that's how tlie era of the com
puter started.
FACTS ABOUT THE ARMY
Did you know:
--T h a t the U.S. M ilita ry Aca
demy now has the largest num
ber of cadets in its 166 year
history? More than 4,000ca
dets are studying at West
Point.
--T h a t A rmy L t. Chuck Rich
ards of Tacoma, W ash, won
the 1970 I \S . Modern Pentath
lon
national championship?
I he event consists of indivi
dual performances in riding,
fencing, shooting, swimming,
and cross-country running.
THE PE O PL E SNIFFER
In past culumns, 1 told you
about the use of dogs in V ie t
nam to sm lf out enemy posi
tions.
W e now have a new inven
tion, a vacuum cleaner-1 ike
device known as tlie "people
s n iffe r."
Two such " s n iffe r s " are
being used by the 3rd Brigade
of the 9th Infantry Division
with great success.The device
scoops up and analyzes a ir
samples. If anyone has been in
tlie area recently, a te ll-ta le
trace of body odor causes a
meter on the machine to flu t
te r.
T he machine, whichdoes not
react to animal odors, w ill
register gases given oft by a
campfire even if it is several
days old. The readings not
onjy pinpoint the enemy’ s lo
cation, tu t also give a rough
estimate of the number of per
sons involved.
QUESTION
F or how long a period does
a person have to e n list to be
guaranteed training in a pa rti
cular field?
Usually fo r three years,
though some programs which
require extensive training call
for a four year enlistment.

"T h e fact is the Presslent

"N ixo n 's economic manipu

"Everybody agrees that we
have to sacrifice to work our
