down and converse with the
computer by voice or by tipping
into the machine, using the
same language we would in
ordinary conversation.
1--WE programmed an earlier
machine with the basic roles
of grammar, as taught in high
school. Then we gave the
machine lessons in simple SEN
tence structure. Then we gave
it a little vocabulary.
"The machine was told that
if it was going to write a sem
tence it should use a subject,
a verb and so forth. 1t was
given groups of nouns, verbs
and other words to choose from.
1t would pick the words at ran
dom, writing a sentence loosely
keyed to a given subject.

THE newer RPC 1000 (Which
is about the size of an office
desk) was programmed with
sentence structure a little more
complex. And it was also CIV
en- groups of rhyming words.
Then it could write a line end
ing in a word like stout, and at
the end of the next line it would
pick one of a dozen words that
rhyme with stout"

success in the field of mechani-

NO ROBERT FROST 1T
Computer Writes Poetry, but Bad

GLENDALE, Calf, Feb. 3
(AP).-RPC 1000 is the latest
terrifying example of what can
happen when you don't keep
computing machines in their
place.
This one writes poems.
What's worse, it does such
a lousy job of it they may sell.
Sample:
That sweet mustache's bill
behind a clod did bump.
Lastly, its teeth were broad
and plump"
Or:
"Oh, panic not to this docile
juice.
Finally, few of my jackets
did distrust the goose.
"Ah, to rectify is black; to
refute was nouriShing.
Butterflies"
NUt d TOct Laureate
RPC 1000. as you can see,
may never be nominated poet
laureate of the United States.
But, as a matter of fact, RPC
1000 is not being groomed to
drive Robert Frost into the
hardware business. It's devel-
oper, the Librascope Division
of General Precision, Inc, is
simply trying to teach COM
puters not to be such snobs, so
ordinary people can understand
them.
AS it stands now, these
sophisticated contraptionsI
wouldn't give the formula for
hard-boiled eggs to an ordinary
layman.
But the gang at Librascope
would like to snare their pleas
ant association with RPC 1000.
So they're trying to teach it to
understand, ana TO write, every
day English.
If they can do this, businesses
will be able to take advantage
of the enormous brainpower of
such machines without having
to hire mathematics professors
as interpreters.
Frank Bristow of Librascope
explains the project like this:

A showing Of award-win-
ming designs selected from
over 1000 entries, was q
feature Of yesterdays The
Washington Advertising
Clubs weekly luncheon.
The Caswell Massey 1862
award winners proved to be
international in their ap-
proach, not only as to source
material but in their home
addresses. They are awarded
each year for excellence Of
design and shown in New
York at q gala evening show
at The Plaza.
The shows producer, Rob-
ert L. Green did the COM
mentary for the show which
spotlighted via the winning
designs specific looks such
as The Ski Look, The
Leather Look, The Patriotic
Look, and The Regatta Look.
In the Ski Look the en-
phasis came through in
sweaters that look at home
in the Bavarian Alps with
their bold and bright pat
terms. Cardigan zippered
sweaters were a forecast Of
things to come in sweater
dom.
Some sweaters and stretch
pants worn with Chukka
boots, may never get to the
slopes, but they'll head for
the Safeway, was the predic-
ton.
The Leather Look drew
the most applause from the
male audience, who liked the
Lederhosen approach in
shorts with matching leather
jackets. A new sailors suit
had Bermuda length pants

of color or in brilliant strip

The Regatta Look is
meant for Palm Beach, Hy-
annis port, and certainly
Newport, or any other port
of call you'd like to wear it
at. White flannel pants with
the 20's standby. the blue
flannel jacket, got a COS ap-
proach in a jacket lined with
navy and white polka dot
fabric, and an ascot to
match.
Other fashion points made
during the luncheon show
