BY RUDOLPH KAUFMAN II.
This is the story of Chevy Chase
boy whose parents never succeeded
in catching him reading in bed when
he was supposed to be asleep.
BY the time he was II, John
William Mauchly, co-inventor of the
worlds largest, fastest and most
complex calculating machine, the
Army's $4,000 electronic numerical
integrator and computer, had solved
this boyhood problem scientifically.
He wired the light in his room to
a loose board in the stairs. When
the late DR.. S. J. Mauchly, chief
physicist of the department OF ter
restrial magnetism of the Carnegie
Institution, or Mrs. Mauchly step
ped on the board coming upstairs,
the light went out, leaving Bill
plenty of time to tuck the scientific
publication he had taken from his
fathers desk under the pillow and
feign the sleep of the innocent.
Now, after burning many gallons
of midnight Oil, Bill has emerged
from a maze of vacuum tubes, tiny
neon lights and cards punched full
of holes, with a gadget-if 30 tons
of electronic mechanism may be
called a gadget-which can compute
in one second the sum of a five
digit number added to itself 5000
times and do lot of other mathe-
matical tricks.
At 38, the boy who came to lot
East Bradley lane, Chevy Chase,
Md, from Cincinnati at the age
of 7 and confounded his teachers
at the old E. v. Brown School with
what bordered on utter contempt
for routine school work is DR.. John
William Mauchly, father of two
children. He won his Phi. D. degree
when he was only %.
Mrs. Mauchly took time out from
getting ready to move from the
family home on Bradley lane yes
terday to reminisce about her son
Bill.
Bill was no ordinary boy, Mrs.
Mauchly recalled. The basement
was always full of his experiments"
and gadgets made with a Mechano
set. When he wasn't experimenting
he was reading.
Some days he'd just stay home
from school and read. He seemed TO
think he was doing his teachers a
favor by attending classes" she said.
At the age of II he started read
ing his fathers scientific publica-
tions.
Reading up on methods of COM
putting atmospheric electricity was
interesting, studying history
wasn't" his mother recalled.
One day, she said, he expert
mented by eating some poison ivy
leaves after reading a scientific
tract on the prevention of irrita-
ton from the plant by means Of
medical preparation taken intern
ally.
"Of course, I was wild I called
his father right away" his mother
recalled.
Hes just as much your child as
he is mine," was the answer she
got from the eminent physicist.
Once the humdrum Of an ele-
mentary education at E. v. Brown
had been endured with what stole

ism Bill could muster, he went to
Mckinley High School.
After graduation he entered
Johns Hopkins University, where he
breezed through a six-year acceler-
ated course which appended BIS,
MS. and PhD. to his name.
He taught physics at Ursinus Col
lege, Collegeville, Pa, for six years,
before going to the University of
Pennsylvania, where details of his
invention were made public yester-
day.
Bill had the idea for a calculator
for long time" Mrs Mauchly said
"but the older professors laughed
at him. They told him maybe in
so years such thing could be con-
structed."
The Army's desire for lightning
fast calculating machine gave him a
chance to put his theories. into
practice.
Bills father died IT years ago.
Bill, in addition to development of
the Bottom mathematical robot, has
found time to carry on with his
fathers work on atmospheric elec-
tricity. Machines to compute the
electrical content of the atmosphere
designed by the senior DR.. Mauchly
still are being used.
He is consulted frequently by the
Navy Department on weather and
statistical problems, his mother said

Eton CoNegions
DepIore Influx of
Offensive Words
BY the Associated Pres.

LONDON. Feb. 16.-The Eton Col

that England "is being invaded by
an army of ill-bred and offensive
words" and put the finger on official
Whitehall as the source OF "this

American cousins, whose language
is vivid and amusing and has a
superficial resemblance to our own
1t is they who are partly responsible
for this deplorable state of affairs, y

Offers Homes
For Veterans

A number of one-bedroom
houses are available for veterans
and their families in the Porter

the project, announced today.
This project, operated by the
local housing authority, is a low
rent project for families of low
income not exceeding 5000 a
year.
Veterans within this income
limit have preference in secur-
ing the units now available. Mr..
White said. Applications may be
made at the project office, TT
Porter Place.
In recent re-examinat On OF
income and rents of the families
in Porter Place it was found that
several families are now earning
income above the limit allowed
in low rent housing projects.
AS soon as these families can
secure apartments and homes
outside the project more units
will be available to returning
veterans, and low income fam
lilies now living in sub-standard
housing.

The money could be raised, Mr..

would contain horse show courts,

ton to the presidency of Frank
