The NYU Bobst Library has ELECTRONIC DATA PROCESSING IN INDUSTRY, report
#3, American Management Association, 1955 (Call number HF5548.A518 c.1). On
pages 243-257 is a "Glossary of Programming Terminology." Pg. 243: "This
Glossary was prepared as a report to the Association of Computing Machinery
in June 1954, by its Committee on Nomenclature: Grace Murray Hopper,
Chairman...." No "chad."
I've been going through the extremely boring AMERICAN DOCUMENTATION
(1950-present). I read a citation for a more interesting journal, COMPUTERS
AND AUTOMATION, which has a "Glossary of Terms in the Field of Computers and
Automation" in December 1954, pages 8-23. NYU doesn't seem to have this
journal (which I'll check in the NYPL tomorrow), and I'm holding George
Thompson responsible.
