BLIND MAN WORKS HIS WAY
He Travelled Alone One Thousand
Miles to Harvard

Alone and unassisted, paying his way
with money which he earned by lee
turing last year, f.. Ray, a blind stu
dent from the mountains of North
Carolina, is pursuing his studies in the
Harvard graduate school.
Ray Is the first blind student who
ever had the courage to come to Cam
bridge and secure an education with
out the help of a tutor or some out
side person. Other blind students there
have been, but none, not even Helen
Keller herself. who was graduated
from Radcliffe, the Harvard annex,
last year, came without some helper
to supplement the wonderful intelli-
gence and instinct which the sightless
always possess.
Ray was graduated from the Uni
versity of North Carolina in 1908, TAX
ing a four years course in three. Then,
after lecturing a year, he Travelled
thousand miles alone. finding his way
about with wonderful intuition until
he reached Cambridge
Soon after reaching here he learned
the principal streets and buildings,
still unassisted, and now walks conf
IDENTIFY about the college grounds as if
in the full possession of his sight. He
uses cane, but very unostentatiously
takes his notes in the lecture room on
a point writing" machine, and hires a
fellow student to read aloud the books
required as outside reading
For exercise he walks great deal,
