BOYLEs COLLEGE, OMAHA.
Remarkable Demonstration of Touch
Typewriting.

H. o. Blaisdell. international champion
typewritist and holder Of the $1,000 inter,
national silver trophy for both 1910 and
1911, gave a public exhibition of touch
typewriting in the immense typewriter
practice room at Boyles college last Fri
day. The exhibition was largely attended
over 900 students being present.
II, b. Boyles informed our reporter that
in the International contest OF 1910 Mr.
BlaIsdell wrote 6,9ls words in an hour
making only seventy-two errors, which
deducting five words fof each error, left
him net rate Of 100 words per minute
fourteen words per minute better thar
the previous international record.
In making this record Mr.. Blaisdel
used the method OF touch typewritins
taught at Boyies college.
This year he wrote total OF Z07
words in an hour. committing merely
sixty-nine errors, which gave a record
OF liz net words per mlnute-the highest
professional record ever made In CON-
petition.
The exhibitions given at Boyles college
were confined to one minute tests. Mr..
Blalsdell writing from copy with which
he was totally unfamiliar.
In one minute he wrote 1871 words. with
one slight error-thus giving him record
OF l26 words for the minute.
Immediately afterwsrd he wrote 11s
words, without the slightest semblance
OF an error, in one minute
Certainly no better demonstration Of
the value Of the system OF touch type
writing taught at Boyles college could
have been made than this.
