...Pulpit. The Belangers had the support of Father Emile Bourassa of St. Patrice de Beaurivage parish. Said he: "Extraordinary things, that seem to come from divine powers, are going on."

When he resumed the work after wartime duty in the South Pacific, Dr. Gibbon won the backing of Thomas J. Watson, president of International Business Machines Corp. With the help of I.B.M. engineers he has improved the machine, made it more nearly automatic...
