Title

The Skyscraper: Cupid Has Substitute; IBM Matches Lovers

Description

Mundelein student Sylvia Hajek reports on the use of IBM machines to match compatible lovers at "an alienation age phenomenon known as the 'IBM mixer.'" She doubts that computers can match people as well as real life encounters-- "a poor second to moonlight and roses." She also suggests that "a push of the wrong button" could match two utterly incompatible people.
