Blind Man Wins Success As Electronics Repairman
OMAHA im Vou don't find
many success slorles about blind
men, but when you do they are
likely to be pretty spectacular,
Tuke the case of a determined
red-haired kid at Die Idaho School
for tho Deaf and Blind.
To young l.svon Peterson, suc
cess meant two tilings: learning
to be a radio repeliman and being
able to live lite loose not nanci-
capiwd by blindness.
But wlio ever heard or a blind
man mastering the Intricacies of
f ne v wired rudio circuit, fer
reting out troublea that could only
be traced by delicate meters and
making pln-polnt repairs with a
scorching soldering Iron?
Today, at 3), La von Peterson
haa found a substantial measure 01
success.
He has proved thai a blind man
can make a living repairing radios,
even teaching others bow to do It,
And he's gone a good deal further
In giving other blind men a cnance
at a better living aa radio tech
nicians. '
Peterson created quite a stir
seven years ago when ne estab
lished lila Kadlo Engineering In
stitute here and enrolled three
blind students In radio technicians'
courses.
Today the school has K students.
In seven yeara It has graduated
between 100 and 800. About 200 of
them were blind, about as many
more had other handicaps.
Of the blind ones, Peterson says,
"A strong 70 per cent are making
s living at It."
Only eight of the students today
are blind. The rent come to Peter
son a school simply because its a
good place to learn practical radio
and television mechanics.
"We put the emphasis not so
much on theory ss on servicing
the manufactured article." Peter
son explains. "The atudenta learn
by doing regular service Jobs. In
big schools, they can't do that."
Peterson, blind since birth, be
gan picking up a working know
ledge of radio aa a 12-year-old
hanging around a radio repair
ahop. He added to It by asking
questions, experimenting, reading
braille and absorbing what waa
read to him.
By the time he went to college
for some work In physics and
math, he waa running a part-time
radio repair business on the side.
When the war atarted Peterson
was operating his own buslneKS
but moved over to the Omaha
Electronic School for Soldiers
and Marines as a teacher.
In a pitch-black room, the aerv
Icemen learned how to repair field
radio equipment under battle con
ditions. Meanwhile - an Idea was
beginning to Jell In the Instructor's
mind.
Why couldn't the blind be taught
thla aame thing and more? Why
couldn't the way be opened for
them aa Peterson had opened It
to himself, to a better living?
In mii, with a couple of sluhted
fellow Instructors who Joined him
In the project, Peterson atarted
the Radio Engineering Institute
In the basement of the Omaha
YMCA.
By this lime Peterson had licked
one of the problems that led others
to throw cold water on his own
radio ambitions. He had devised
testing equipment that combined
sound and touch to tell the blind
technician what the sighted radio
man learned from his meters.
Gradually the Veterans Adminis
tration, various state and rehabil
itation departments ((nd the Army
gave their stamp of approval to
the school.-
Peterson acquired e couple of
new partners and the school moved
Irom the basement of the "Y" to
a building of Its own. : -
Peterson, his wife, who also la
blind, and their ; three ' sighted
children live pretty much like
other people In a bungalow they
are buying In a pleasant suburban
neighborhood.
