Notes This file consists of the last band of the Old Lab master: Lohr reads a list of word pairs (or groups) in which only pitch contours distinguish the meaning; he then reads a text entitled "Spider and Tortoise (Riddles)". The tape copy (as opposed to the original disc) was chosen for digitizing on the supposition that the equipment available c. 1955 might have read the record grooves more quietly and accurately.
