The unusual ball had its begin nings in 1964 w-hen Ina Guyei. a Mountain Bell employee, watch ed sympatheticall.v as a child at tile Cidorado School for Ihe Deaf and Blind in Colorado Sprin.g.s stumbled and groped lo find a ball in a field. For days .she mulled over the problem, finally hitting on the obvious an.-swer: a ball Tliat could be heard. She sold the Colorado- Wyoming Pioneer chapter on in eluding the development of such a hall among its other projects. Acceptance of the challenge was only a first stop in a long series of frustrating trials and er rors. It took years to find a com bination of electronic compon- ent.s rugged enough to withstand ] the punishment of hatting and being thrown against a wall or other hard surface. Now. after some six years of experimenting. Audio Balls are being produced in quantify. The Coiorada Pioneers have made them for the Colorado Springs .school and offered the detailed production manual and their know-how to any other Pioneer group that expresses interest. So far. 17 councils or chapters have taken on the Audio Ball pro jects. One of the.se is in Bell of j Canada in Montreal, giving Audio 1 I Bail an international flavor. ■ The newest models can he 1 thrown by an adult male at full ■ force at a concrete wall and still bounw back beeping.

Mountain Phone 739-S471 John V Stribling was a civil engineer with unusual mechanical skill,vvholived in South Carolina’s Oconee and Ander son Counties. In the early 1880’s, Stribling decided he needed a machine to carry material from the railroad to his mill. And since nothing avail able was satisfactory, he decided the only way to get what he wanted was to make it. So, he went to work. In his small machine shop, Stribling developed a revolutionary gear arrangement which applied power from a steam engine to wheels of his carriage. The driving axle and differential gears were enclosed in a hollowsheH.Hisinvcntioii was patented June 1.^, 1882, Though rather crude in appearance, Stribling's horseless carriage rolled out of his shop and was put to work. Stribling was overjoyed. His uncle wasn't. “Johnny,” he said, “the world is not ready for the The car that was built too soon horseless carriage; you are fifty years ahead of your time.” In a sen.se, his uncle was right. The cost of building steam-powered vehicles was too high, and it was to be several years before gasoline engines were ap plied to vehicles. And so, except for his own use. Strib ling never benefited from his invention. But, John Stribling's patented differential is basi cally the same design and principle in use in today's automobiles and trucks. Stribling lived to see tiie modern automobile. But, he never owned one. Nevertheless, he was content with the fact that he had made a major contribution to the development of transportation. The imagination and ingenuity of John Stribling helped make this area great. It is in that spirit that Duke Power is working for an even greater Piedmont.
