Ruby Bollenbacher’s Knack at Languages Proves Boon to State

- Highway Division Employee Who Served U. S. as Translator, Says ‘Study Latin if You ‘Would Know Romance Tongues.’

By VIRGINIA MOORHEAD MANNON Miss Ruby Bollenbacher is not one to be reduced to a series of maudlin gutterals when faced with a few pages written in a foreign tongue. Her experience as a governmental and commercial translator has, since her college days, kept her on speaking terms with more than 2 half dozen languages. She has a positive penchant for exacting assignments in French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Greek’or Rumanian. Anyorfe with an apfitude for languages can obtain the knowledge requisite for being a Aranslator at school right here in this country, she says. “Knowledge of syntax rather than native pronunciation is the thing. The field for commercial correspondence translation is tremendous, and I should like to encourage foreign language students to enter it,” she added. For three and one-half years during the World War Miss Bollenbacher was engaged in confidential translation for the U. S. ‘Military Intelligence Bureau and the Office of Naval Intelligence. (This fascinating employment somehow suggests a dashing lady spy out of an Oppenheim novel.) After the war she established in Chicago the Overseas Bureau of Translation which handled foreign language correspondence for a number of large Chicago business firms.

She Still Reads Them Occasionally

An extracurricular activity in connection with her present position in the State Highway Division is the translation of foreign language material sent to the various departments of the State Government. Occasionally the State Industrial Board receives a pamphlet written in German containing technical information on German machinery, or an Italian benevolent society makes application in Italian to the Excise Department for a license, she said. . But whether it be ‘technical .pamphlet or a job application, Miss Bollenbacher has the .key to the situation in a substantial library of grammar books and scientific dictionaries in her apartment at the Marott Hotel. No light skimming over of French. irregular verbs, no half-hearted devotion to Latin declensions if you're going to make your classical education vocational, Miss Bollenbacher declares. “Success as a trans- . lator, like success-at anything else, comes from vigorous application.” Latin, by the way, she considers the foundation for language study. “You can’t know Romance languages without it.” A translator is more likely to think in his own language than an interpreter, although there are certain phrases in other languages which sometimes seem more apropos than their English equivalents, she explained. She finds German easiest in conversation, likes French best, and has found Spanish most useful in commercial translation. To those whose exposure to languages in school has dimmed to a mere transitory acquaintance, Miss Bollenbacher’s statement, “If you just use them, they stick,” draws a gentle tear for what might have been. It’s a good deal like those wasted years of piano practice. Oh well, “Labor omnia vincit!”
