E|ectronic Brain Loafs-T
Seconds To Do Hours Work

CHAMPAIGN, Ill up - Lazy
Ordvac. the wonder math machine,
loafed through a trial test run by
turning out the cubes of 1000 num-
bers in slightly more than an hour.
And the University of Illinois,
which perfected Ordvac, said to-
day that something must be done
to keep the new electronic brain
from goldbricking.
Scientists said Ordvac had the
answers ready in two seconds. It
rested for the remainder of the
hour and quarter while its at
tached teletypewriter tapped out
the figures at the rate of five
strokes second.
"It's obviously loafing on the
job" technicians said.
They said Ordvac worked much
faster when it came to recalling
numbers. The machine can remem-
Der a number faster than a math
major or anyone else can blink
an eye.
1t can file away 1,O24 numbers
in its maze of tubes and wiring
and produce any one Of them in
36-millionths of a second.
Then Ordvac can take the num-
bers. whirl them into complicated
problems, produce the answers,
check results and reports its prog
resS.
AS a final test, the technicians
gave Ordvac 352 random numbers,
pulled few levers and put the
brain to work with a bewildering
set of problems of involving multi
plication, division and comparison
of answers.
When Ordvac arrived at one an
swer, the technicians fed in new
numbers and the brain started all
over again, reporting its progress
each eight times it did the job.
NO MISTAKES IN 12 HOURS
They told Ordvac to stop if it
made a mistake. But the machine
pounded out the answers for IL
hours with no mistakes and turned
