It All Began with Spacewar!by Peter Roop

The basic rules were quicklyestablished: two enemy spaceships,controlled by switches, fired missilesat one another. The team then addedstars to the background andintroduced gravity and hyperspace tomake Spacewar! more challengingand realistic.

Spacewar! was an immediate hit atcomputer conventions anddemonstrations. It not only showedwhat a computer could do, but it wasalso fun to play.

Games had been played oncomputers long before Spacewar!was created. Researchers in the1950s had programmed their “giantelectronic brains” to play checkers,tic-tac-toe, and chess. Computerswere so new in 1960 that nobody wascertain just how many tasks thesemachines could perform. Gameswere ideal for discovering the“intelligence” of computers.

As researchers worked (andplayed) with computers, they madethree major technological advances:central processors, which calculatehow a character moves on the screen,were improved; electronic memoriescarrying the games’ instructions andcharacters were expanded; and the

Two enemy spaceships slowlycircled each other on a black andwhite screen. One spaceshipaccelerated as the other rotated to theright. The first spaceship fired asilent missile at its opponent. Themissile missed its target. The secondspaceship returned fire. Its missile hitthe enemy and erased it from thescreen.

This was the scene on the screen ofSpacewar!, the world’s first videogame. This historic game ushered inthe age of electronic games.

In 1961, Spacewar!’s creators ShagGraetz, Steve Russell, and WayneWittenan were working with a newcomputer at the MassachusettsInstitute of Technology when theydecided to create a game that woulddemonstrate the capacity of theircomputer. Wayne Wittenan said tohis computer companions, “Look,you need action and you need somekind of skill level. It should be agame where you have to controlthings moving around on the scope(screen), like spaceships. Somethinglike an explorer game, or a race, orcontest . . . a fight, maybe?”

“Spacewar!” agreed Graetz andRussell, both science fiction fans.

television-like display screen wasrefined. Each of these advancescontributed to the development of themultitude of video games enjoyed inarcades and at home today.

Spacewar! proved too bulky andcomplicated for the average personto play. For years, it remained aresearchers’ game. Then, in 1971,Ralph Baer, an electronics engineer,began working on hooking acomputer to a home television.

Describing his work, Baer said,“The thought came to me that youshould be able to do something elsewith television besides watch it. Youought to be able to play games.” Withthis idea in mind, Baer inventedOdyssey, a game with a boundingball and paddles that could be playedon any television screen. Odysseywas the first video game that

consumers could buy and play athome.

About the same time, NolanBushnell and Ted Dabney, twoelectrical engineers, designed thegame Computer Space. Bushnelldescribed the game as “a cosmicdogfight between a spaceship and aflying saucer.” Computer Space,however, did not catch on with gameplayers. So Bushnell and Dabneyinvented an electronic table tennisgame, which they called Pong. Anexpert on arcade games, Bushnellmatched the excitement of tabletennis with the fun of a pinballmachine. Pong was so successful that Bushnell founded the Atari®

company to manufacture and sell the game. Pong is considered the first truly successful coin-operatedvideo game.

How the Leaves Came Downby Susan Coolidge

“I’ll tell you how the leaves came down.”The great Tree to his children said:“You’re getting sleepy, Yellow and Brown,Yes, very sleepy, little Red.It is quite time to go to bed.”

“Ah!” begged each silly, pouting leaf,“Let us a little longer stay;Dear Father Tree, behold our grief!‘Tis such a very pleasant day,We do not want to go away.”

So for just one more merry dayTo the great Tree the leaflets clung,Frolicked and danced, and had their way,Upon the autumn breezes swung,Whispering all their sports among—

“Perhaps the great Tree will forget,And let us stay until the spring,If we all beg, and coax, and fret.”But the great Tree did no such thing;He smiled to hear their whispering.

“Come, children, all to bed,” he cried;And ere the leaves could urge their prayer,He shook his head, and far and wide,Fluttering and rustling everywhere,Down sped the leaflets through the air.

I saw them; on the ground they lay,Golden and red, a huddled swarm,Waiting till one from far away,White bedclothes heaped upon her arm,Should come to wrap them safe and warm.

The great bare Tree looked down and smiled.“Good-night, dear little leaves,” he said.And from below each sleepy childReplied “Good-night,” and murmured,“It is nice to go to bed!”

Plant This Cardby Kathy McCord

What to Do:

Step 1. Cover your work surfacewith plastic before starting. Make sureyou’ve removed all the staples fromthe junk paper. Put 1 cup paper scrapsinto blender. Add 3 cups water and putblender lid on. Blend for 60 secondson medium-low speed. (Don’t removelid while blender is running!) Pour thepulp into washtub and repeat with restof paper.

Step 2. Pour seeds into tub,distributing them evenly.

Step 3. Staple or nail cheesecloth toback of picture frame. Stretch thecheesecloth tightly and fasten it to allfour sides of frame.

Step 4. Slip frame, cheesecloth sideup, into washtub and swish pulparound to get it on top of frame. Let alayer of pulp settle on the cheesecloth.Then lift frame straight up and hold itover washtub to let the excess waterdrain out. This may take a minute or two.

Washtub Turkey Baster

Making paper by hand is fun andinteresting, and by adding seeds to thepaper pulp, you can create a card orletter that can be planted. Plant paperis a completely recycled andrecyclable product—starting with junkmail, you can make a birthday cardthat (once the seeds sprout) couldbecome a bouquet of flowers or even abowl of tomato soup!

What You’ll Need:

• Plastic

• Water

• 2 cups junk mail, computer paper, or

paper bags, torn into nickel-sized pieces

(avoid glossy, highly illustrated paper)

• blender

• 12-inch-by-15-inch plastic washtub

• 3 packages very small plant seeds such

as forget-me-nots, wildflowers, chili

peppers, or tomatoes

• stapler or hammer and several small

nails

• old wooden picture frame (a 5-inch-by-7-

inch frame works well)

• fine cheesecloth cut an inch larger than

the frame on all sides

• turkey baster

• newspapers

• several old dishcloths and one dish towel

• piece of thick cardboard about 8 inches

by 10 inches

• 3 bricks

Step 5. Carefully lay frame, pulpside down, on a dishcloth spread outon a stack of newspapers. Removeframe. If pulp doesn’t separate fromframe right away, try blottingcheesecloth with a dishcloth beforelifting frame off.

Step 6. Fill turkey baster with pulpfrom washtub and use it to fill inempty spots in the molded pulp. Putanother dishcloth on top of moldedpulp.

Step 7. Repeat steps 4 through 6 until you run out of pulp, layingeach new layer of pulp on top of theprevious layer, with a dishcloth inbetween.

Step 8. Put a towel on the last sheetof paper, then a piece of cardboard.Lay three bricks on top of cardboard.Let layers rest for 15 minutes.

Step 9. Carefully remove bricks,cardboard, and towel. Then removeeach dishcloth and paper layer and laythem out on separate stacks ofnewspaper. Let the sheets dry

between 12 and 24 hours. You can dryout the wet newspapers and save themfor recycling afterward.

Now that your plant paper has dried,you can make plantable cards. Be sureto include the following plantinginstructions when you send a card tosomeone special.

Planting Instructions:

Plant paper can be planted directlyinto the ground—the paper pulp actsas mulch. Or you can sprout the seedsin the paper before planting. To pre-sprout, dampen the paper withwater and put in a plastic bag. Makesure to keep paper damp at all times.The seeds should begin to sprout inone to three weeks. When they do,transplant them to your garden or aclay pot.

Glossarydomestic—something produced in,or native to, a particular countryfiber—a fine, threadlike substancepaper mill—a factory that producespaperrecovered paper—recycled paperrecycle—to reprocess and use again

Today, U.S. papermakers arerecycling more recovered paper thanever before. About 80 percent of U.S.papermakers use some recovered fiberin manufacturing, while nearly 200paper mills rely exclusively onrecovered paper for their fiber.Altogether, recovered paper nowsupplies more than 37 percent of theraw material fiber used at U.S. papermills, up from 25 percent in 1998.

As a result, consumers can now findrecycled content in virtually all typesof paper products — from packing andnewsprint to copy paper andstationery. But it is also important tounderstand that some products aremore easily made with recycledcontent than others. Recycledpaperboard — often used forpackaging like cereal boxes —is aproduct that can be made usingvarious grades of recovered paperwhile printing-writing papers tend tohave very strict requirements in termsof the types of recovered paper thatcan be used. That’s why, generallyspeaking, you find some products withmore recycled content than others.

But Coyote, the wise one,learned the giant’smagic song,and when Coyote sang it,the Frost Giant slept.

Now when the cottonwoodscrack with frost againour children know, unlessthey hear Coyote’s song,they must stay inside,where the fire is brightand buffalo robeskeep us warm.
