Yale Defeats Harvard
With Long Drives in
Thriller, 81 10 Il
BY the Associated Press

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. %
A slashing group of Yale backs led
by Bob TEX" Furse of Eastland
Tex, put on long scoring drives
in every period today to overcome
an everything Harvard team, 81
to 81, in one of the most thrilling
offensive duels seen in the East
this year.
The two old settlers of the East
ern slope went at it as if they
were playing for a National title
and more than repaid 10000 who
turned out to watch them bounce
each other around for the 64th
time. They were tied 14-14 at the
half.
Furse proved the individual hero
of the bruising engagement. In
addition to ramrodding Yale's pass
ing attack, he smashed across Har-
wards goal line three times to
tie a record for the series set by
Art Fitzgerald of Yale two years
ago. Levi Jackson, elusive Negro
fullback, went over for the Blues
fourth touchdown and Bill Booze
climaxed the Els scoring spree
with 39-yard field goal in the
fading moments Of the game.
With Furse passing brilliantly tc
a variety of receivers, and Jackson
and Ferd Nadherny ripping almost
at random through the Harvard
line, Yale paraded, in order, r.
At, 66 and 68 yards to its scores.
Jackson set up Yale's first score with
a brilliant 26-yard run through the
center of the Harvard line.

Science Has Device
That Reads Aloud
Large Paper Symbols Turned
Into Words by Robot.

WASHINGTON - Now the scien.
lists have come up with device
which 'reads out loud"
They say it may be possible to
have the instrument read to blind
or handicapped person or to people
just too plain lazy to read.
This robot reader was developed
in the Bell Telephone laboratories.
Appropriately for an infant, the
choice for it's first recitation was:
MARY had a little lamb, it's fleece
was white as snow"
At present it can't read book. 1t
can only read large size paper pat
terms mounted on a background of
contrasting color.
But DR.. Oliver E. Buckley, presi-
dent of the laboratories, in an ex-
PLANTATION of the new device for
members of National Geographic
society, said that if the talking
paper symbols could be reduced to
small size they could be printed
from type.
He added that many technical diff
ficulties have to be solved first. En-
gineers said the new device might
have widespread commercial appli-
cations when perfected. For in
stance, a printed page might be
broadcast without benefit of human
voice.
Here's how it works:
Large paper patterns are cut out
and placed on a revolving cylinder.
AS the drum rotates past photo
electric cells the black paper pat
terms, mounted on a white back
ground, interrupt the light patterns
of the cells.
This breaks the light beam into
a series of signals, regulated by the
shape of the pattern. These signals
operate a "voice box" called
''voder."
The patterns represent the veri-
Gus sounds of speech, such as syl
tables and words.
'Voder' fundamentally is 9. ma
chine that produces a buzzing
sound. This sound can be varied in
pitch. The variations are what pro-
duce the sound of speech.
For instance, the buzzing car be
made to sound like ''e' and ''s."
When the pitch of the buzzing is
changed abruptly to sound SCI and
then So the result is the word
eyes" The light signals from the
photoelectric cells can be changed
by the pattern to make the machine
say words and phrases.
