This strange 1933 model Robot, so near ma nin action that many wit nesses have called It human, does many strange and mystifying feats. At least Billy Walker says so, and he should know, as Billy Walker Is bring ing the mechanical man to town, to entertain the folks In and about Med ford, who went to see Just what a mechanical man can do. Billy says If you push button number one the figure will turn to the right, and If you push button number nine It will turn to the left; buttons number three and eight cause It to bow. i tt 1 -i fl 3 II In order to get the device or what Is It? to lead, an ochestra, you have to eliminate the drums and push a series of buttons that cause It to beat the two-four or three-four time, or whatever time Is necessary. In Europe these Robots are used to test golf balls, the Robot always striking the ball at the same point and with the same amount of power, which le more accurate than the professional player would be, because the profes sional may not hit the ball exacrly the same each shot. The first robots were used on the stage in France; they took the part of soldiers, In the background of the if ill Man or Machine?

Later, an attorney built wha't was called the. mechanical office boy. This contrivance one of the first robots that really did a serv ice would stand two feet back from an open window, the attorney could attend the opera or a meeting, and If It began to rain the attorney would telephone his office; when the phone rang it would close a switch con nected to some of the apparatus on the dummy, and immediately the fig ure, with Its arms outstretched, would bow forward, and the arms would come in contact with the specially ar ranged bar on the window .and the window would be caused to close.
