I got the same article from Mark Lause, a historian at University of Cincinnati, who in turn received it from his former student: <http://www.columbia.edu/~lnp3/msg60427.html>. I turned it into a jpg image and posted it to my blog.

The article must be spreading fast through the cyber-space. Digital archives are a great invention! -- Yoshie
