State College To
UnyeiI MaryeIs OF
Electric Brain

Mississippi State College will un-
veil the marvels of the "electronic
brain" at an open house to be held
for leaders in businss, government
and agriculture within the next few
weeks, President Ben Hilbun an
nounced.
The special event is designed to
acquaint the public with the facili-
ties of the State College Computing
Center, which is being opened here
this month as Mississippi State con-
tinues to expand its plant and
facilities to- meet the needs of Mis-
sissippi's growing industrial and
agricultural economy.
The IBM $50 digital computer,
commonly referred to as an "elec-
tronic BRAIN" is the key machine
of the computing center, which also
includes an analog computer and
other related equipment.
Installation of the machine was
approved by the Board of Trustees
of State Institutions of Higher
Learning and the International
Business Machines Corporation. 1t
will be used to train students in
areas of computer application, and
for educational and industrial re-
search.
Opening of our computer CEN
ter will make possible the solution
Of many problems in industrial and
governmental research heretofore
impossible" President Hilbun said.
"The flexibility and versatility of
this machine, together with its high
speed, permit quick solutions to a
variety of problems which ordi-
narily would require the work of
scores of people over long periods
of time. We feel that the center
will open new frontiers of oppor-
tunity to our people"
Fred Davis, graduate of Missis-
sippi State College and former head
of the Air Force computing center
at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida,
has returned home to head the new
installation. Of his new work, Mr..
Davis said, 81 have unlimited faith
in Mississippi's opportunities and
believe that this installation will
be a great contribution in our
states forward march"
