Somebody might check some manuals for teletypes or
paper-tape punches for the
'official term' used for the punch detritus from paper tape. TMR, the box on
the side of the teletype paper tape punch was commonlny called the chad box.
"chad container" and "chad chute assembly" appear in the Technical
Manual 33 Teletypewriter Sets Bulletin 310B Vol 1 circa 1962, 1964,
1968 and 1969, Teletype Corporation. The dates are all over the place
since the manual contains different revisions of various sections.
