It doesn't appear that you are In any immedi ate danger of being replac ed by a robot. I base this statement on the experi ence I had with the auto ma t e d infor mation ser Labor Depart ment inaugurated this week on an experimental basis. The department's venture into futuristic press agentry employs a recording device that is hooked up to a lele phone. By dialing l(il.')3R8. a re porter theoretically can re- ma tte.t that the vice ccive a recorded account oi what's going on around Ihe de partment. Note I said "the oretically.'1 I first dialed the number al 12:42 p.m. on the day that the robot in the grey flanncd suit went Into operation. All I heard was a terici of clicking noises, followed by the telephonic equiva lent of the Bronx cheer. I Identified II a busy sig nal which for tome reason sounded more raucous than usual. The same thing happened the next two times I dialed 1 naturally assumed that some thing pretty big must be going on to keep the line tied up like that. Finally, on the fourth try, the dulcet tones of Ue.ss Fried man, who had been assigned to give voice to the robot, IT TAKES 176 HANDS TO MAKE A PAIR OF CHILDREN'S SHOES but these two at DEALER'S NAME are even more important! Without careful, export fitting, I ho host shnos oor made will not protot t your children's foot as I hoy phould. This careful fit contributes to longer wear, too. Stop in and lot us show you how wo do it. And when you know more about the importance of lit, you'll know why we recom mend (duiordj, the children's shoe that is constructed for hotter fit. All styles, all sizes from tiny ones to teens. Open Friday Nites 7-9 P.M. came tinnuiaiinjt over me wire, She talks a lot faster than 1 can take notes. A robot, how ever, does not respond to re quests to slow down. I had to hant; up, dial aynin and listen to repeals of the recording un til I had copied the pertinent information. "There will he a meeting i this morning at 10 a.m. in 'room ;i41I8 on the Huntsville, ! Ala,, strike of electricians," it i said. The fulurs tense sounded a bit odd tor ii was ih?n 12:57 p.m. 1 kept calling back dur ing the afternoon hoping I I would find out what hap pencd at the meeting. But all I ever heard was "there will be a meeting this morn ing at 10 a.m., etc." 1 was therefore forced to conclude that an electronic press agent doesn't rivp out slale news any better than the old fashion human variety. Moreover, the robot variety has what I regard as a basic deficiency rendering it inca pable of perform in; one of the fundamental functions of press ailenlry. j Not heinu on an expen.se ac j count, it is unable In buy a re I porter an occasional drink.
