This drawing signed by Robert A. Edberg. JVM NOTE: An application for a U. S. Patent on this invention was finally filed on January 4, 1971, and U. S. Patent No. 3,692,982, was granted to John V. McMillin on September 9, 1972 - more than four years after the idea was conceived and proven, showing the snail's pace of U. S. Patent protection! Later yet, I was awarded the princely sum of $200 by WLC, Harvey J. Brudner, as an honorarium for this Patent Disclosure.

e) Press-Citizen photo looking at model of the Lindquist Center "to be built next year", circa 1971-1972
f) Press-Citizen article entitled, "Lindquist built in 2 phases", 1980 October 11
Referring to the history of the first phase, and describing a second phase which was dedicated September 6, 1980. The keynote speaker on the second day, Saturday, April 7, 1973, of the original dedication, was M. R. Dunstan, Senior Lecturer, Tertiary Education Research Centre, University of New South Wales (UNSW), Kennigston, Australia. Dunstan had previously established an OMR operation at UNSW. Inasmuch as I had become well acquainted with Max Dunstan during the preceding years when I headed the installation team of WLC/MRC engineers to install a W305 OMR Scanning System at the UNSW, Dr. Lindquist requested that I contact Max to see if Max would accept an invitation to deliver a keynote speech at the Lindquist Center Dedication in April 1973. Max eagerly accepted Lindquist's invitation, and my wife and I had the privilege of attending the Lindquist Center Dedication and visiting with Max again following his presentation
