...when this U.S. Army Signal Corps veteran and enterprising engineer couldn't afford a secretary, he rigged up an 80-lb. contraption that used a lever to lift a phone receiver, a 78-r.p.m. record player to convey a personalized greeting, and a wire recorder to capture callers' 30-sec. messages. More than 6,000 of these "electronic secretaries" were in use by 1957, when he and a partner sold the patent to General Telephone Corp...

Their stories highlight how swimming has changed since Gould...

...denying it was dimming her spirit. She received, she says, no sympathy from her husband - "He never understood my motivations, my essence." After their marriage ended in 1997, it wasn't long before the pool lured her back. And by clocking a personal-best 30.32 sec. for the 50-m 'fly at last year's U.S. Masters championships in New Jersey, she qualified for the Olympic trials...
