Inscriptions Typed in black ink on paper taped to verso and folded to recto BC: 'HELPING HAND' -- Keepingtrack of 10,500 reels of software information that \ are color coded and filed in numerical sequence requires concentration, and \ Wilma Fetters ordinarily would welcome some assistance. But this "helping \ hand" offered by a co-worker, simply added a bit od diversion to the tape check \ being performed at Comshare, Inc., and internationsl decision-support software \ firm based in Ann Arbor, Mich. The total number of reels, only 600 of which \ are shown, contain about 4,770 miles of tape with 189 billion bits of business \ software information. The tapes are normally store in a locked, fireproof \ vault for security. \ -0- \ From: John A.
