Computer Picks Dates hr Dances f ' ’ * • i LAFAYETTE UPI — Tickets i sold at a merry clip today for a ^Friday the 13th Purdue UniverT j^ity dance featuring blind dates arranged by an electronic coan- . puter. . . Junior class sponsors prom- ^ ised all customers of $1 tickets » that if they truthfully answered ~ #18 questions on characteristics and personality traits, a new IBM 7094 computer would select the “perfect dates” for f -them. Tom Sawyer, a cnemical engineering student from Beech Grove, developed the idea as a “bizaare project” after hearing of a similar social event at Northwe^tera, University several years ago. Sawyer Qontactfd Prof. Clifford H. Swensen of the Purdue • psychology department, and Swensen compiled a list of ques.tions he had used in an experi- - rngnt to find what traits figured in compatability among couples living in the university’s mar- * ried students courts. Each student buying a ticket lists his age, height, habits, ■ hobbies, ambitions and inter- ^ jests. ;When ticket sales close Wedr nesday night, cards will be -punched to record the answers to each dance guest. The cards will be fed into the computer. -fi'Before the dance, the boys will gather in one room, girls in an- • other. As their matched numbers are called off the computer cards

they will meet in ft third room and go to the dance. Thomas R. Adams, Lafayette, junior class president, said he knew of some steady dating couples who bought tickets to see if the computer, pairs them He said there were few shy students and wallflowers among the ticket buyers.. - * “I’ve seen some real charmers in the ticket line,” Adam* said. About 50 class council members will spend an hour handling the pairing of the blind dates. Then they’ll go to the dance themselves — settling for the best possible computer pairing remaining after the paying customers are served.
