Luther W. Hussey, A.B., Dartmouth College, 1923; M.A., Har- 

 vard University, 1924. Union College, Instructor, 1924-30; Bell Tele- 

 phone Laboratories, 1930-. Mr. Hussey was first engaged in research on 

 non-linear resistive and reactive devices such as copper-oxide and ger- 

 manium diodes. He worked on the development of a non-linear coil for 

 the magnetic pulse generator and the harmonic generator in the mega- 

 cycle range. He has been concerned with the development of modulating 

 devices, negative impedance circuits, and switching and computer de- 

 vices, and is currently associated with an electronic apparatus develop- 

 ment group working on transistors and transistor circuits. He is a 

 member of the I.R.E. 



Robert L. Kaylor, B.S. in E.E., University of Michigan, College of 

 Engineering, 1927. Detroit Edison Company, 1922-27; American Tele- 

 phone and Telegraph Company, Development and Research Depart- 

 ment, 1927-34; Bell Telephone Laboratories, 1934-. At A. T. and T. he 

 was engaged in field testing of new telephone apparatus and funda- 

 mental studies of noise and cross-induction in telephone circuits. He 

 continued these and related studies after transferring to the Labora- 

 tories, his work including fundamental studies of methods of measuring 

 radio noise. During World War II he was Signal Officer mth several 

 Army and Air Corps organizations, and is now a Lieutenant Colonel in 

 the Air Force Reserve. Mr. Kaylor returned to the Laboratories in 1945 

 to do field trials of radio relay systems, and analysis and measurement 

 studies in the 4,000-mc range. More recently he has been engaged in 

 classified military projects. Member of the A.I.E.E., Associate of the 

 I.R.E. 



G. E. Murray, Western Electric Company, 1936-. Mr. Murray has 

 been active in the development of equipment and processes for the 

 electroforming project and is in charge of the electrochemical develop- 

 ment group. During World War II, he was engaged in the manufacture 

 of rubber covered wire and communications items for the Armed Ser- 

 vices. He is a member of the American Chemical Society. 



James B. Newsom, Western Electric Company and Bell Telephone 

 Laboratories, 1920-. After four years of military service in World War 

 I, he joined Western Electric, directin his attention to the development 

 of manual telephone systems and the panel telephone system. Since the 

 incorporation of the Laboratories in 1925, he has been a member of 

 what is now Switching Systems Development II and has devoted time
