To aid the dear, (I number of out-
ilts have been developed in the
laboratories. Mr. Fibdley said. Ono
of these has a tiny receiver. weigh-
ing half an ounce, which fits snugly
into the outer ear and is. less con-
spicuous than a. pair or glasses.
Speech is picked up by it micro~
phone: for those moderately deaf
only actual! battery box is needed;
Vacuum tube amplifier is available,
he explained.

Bell Laboratory work on audio um-
pliflors. Mr. Findley showed some of
the results 0! good and poor am-.
pllfler design. A passage read from
a. book had been picked up by to
microphone and put through on
electric wave tiller which cut out all
tones below or above a certain pitch.
By recording the result on a phone-
graph record. and then playing the
latter electrically through the env-
plitlers and a loud speaker. the audi-
once~ could recognise and identify
some of the defects at their radio
sets. -
A rod of the magnetic alloy of
iron and nickel coiled permailoy was
shown to the audience. So easily
does this material respond to msg-
netising‘ forces that the earth‘s
feeble magnetic field will make it
pick up bits of metal. It the bar is
turned to lie across the earth‘s field.
the magnetism will die out and the
bit of metal will drop off. This
metal is used in modern submarine
telegraph cables to increase their
itnductance to oi'hct’ their capacity

inals can be sent to five times the
