Picker used in a processing apparatus wherein a stack of data processing cards or other paper, checks, or the like, are fed along an input hopper to an end wall plate where each of the cards are sequentially ejected from the stack in a direction at right angles to the previous travel path. The picker seizes each card as it reaches the end plate and directs the card one at a time in the new direction past a throat formed by a throat bar defining the throat passage past the end plate. The end plate has a window for the picker face near the throat bar. The picker is a substantially hollow body with angular walls and a generally arcuate picker face having holes therein and is supported in the window so that it can be turned by a drive means a predetermined angle of rotation in the direction of the throat. Suction means are connected to the picker to generate a negative pressure force through the holes therein to cause the foremost card to adhere to the face upon reaching the end place and be directed past the throat as the picker turns.
