THRtf Bell Researchers Score Communication Firsts SHORE SERVICE Notable Advances Made in Holmdel Laboratories ASBURY PARK SUNDAY PRESS, Sunday, May IS, 1955 PAKADE 5 IW! HOLMDEL TOWNSHir Experiments designed to improve communications are carried on in the Bell Telephone Laboratories on Longstreet Road' here. For 20 years Bell's radio research engineers here have probed the secrets of the communications art. Their discoveries have contributed important advances in shortwave receptionradio wave propagation, waveguides, radar antenna systems, and radie relay repeaters. When you watch a television program originating in Hollywood or Chicago it's possible that lt is being carried across the country by microwave relay. The research and basic development of this transmission system was conducted here.

New Developments This year the laboratories announced two significant achievements. Bell researchers came up with a new and radically different medium for transmitting television and than they can with optical astronomy. Radio waves pierce the interstellar gases and dust and are not absorbed like light waves. The radio waves are recorded for scientists to "see" and interpret. R.

S. Ohl, 9 Brookside Avenue, Fair Haven, first used crystal rectifiers to handle the higher frequencies which radar required. He carried on research which improved their performance. These crystals were invaluable to radar engineers during World War 2. Their use now is standard in all microwave reception.

Pioneered on Waveguides In the 1930's George C. South-worth, now af Bell's Murray Hill laboratories, carried on pioneering work with waveguides here. In 1935 he set up the first long run waveguide 'outside one of the original farmhouses on the 400-acre tract. World War 2 broke out, shortwaves needed in radar required radically new circuit techniques. The answer was found here in methods and components already developed.

Friis in Charge Dr. Harald T. Friis, director of research in high frequency and electronics, is general director of the Holmdel laboratories. He lives at 30 East River Road, Rumson. In March he received the medal of honor for 1955 from the Institute of Radio Engineers.

Last year he was knighted by King Frederik IX of Denmark, where he was born. He also received the Valdemar Poulsen Gold Medal from the Danish Academy of Technical Services. John C. Schelleng is director of radio research. He lives at 301 Bendermere Avenue, Interlaken.

And in conjunction with the Massachusetts Institute of. Technology they succeeded in transmitting TV and many telephone channels thru space for 188 miles at "super high" frequencies without relay stations. Use Metallie Tubes The new' transmission medium is a long distance waveguide which uses hollow metallic tubes about two inches in diameter. It is markedly different from modern cable and radio relay systems. Bell scientists believe the new waveguide some, day may simultaneously carry tens of thousands of cross country telephone conversations, plus hundreds of TV programs.

Recent experiments here indicate that when fully developed the new transmission method may join coaxial cable and radio relay as an everyday Bell System medi um. A 60-foot dish antenna on Craw-fords Hill near Telegraph Hill is used in the super-high frequency experimental system. It is visible from the Garden State Parkway. The antenna is the largest in the world for super-high frequencies. It can pick up TV and telephone signals sent directly thru space for 200 miles.

Thru over-the-horizon transmission, longer communications bridg es are possible over water and rugged terrain. In the microwave relay network relay stations are 30 miles apart. The laboratories have a rich history of important communications developments. Many of the engineers here pioneered in ship-to-shore, and trans-Atlantic transmissions at Bell's old laboratories on Whalepond Road, Ocean Township. One of the first major advances here was the famouse "rhombic" shortwave which still is standard for long-range transmission and reception.

While making observations of static at shortwaves, the late K. G. Jansky in 1931 detected radiation originating in inter steller space. Thus he established an important new science radio astronomy, which is attaining world-wide prominence. Using radio waves, scientists are able to "see" farther into space Guard Unit Rendezvous Set RED BANK The U.S.

Coast Guard Auxiliary. Third District, Northern 'area, will hold its an-n'-I rendezvous here Aug. 5, 6, and 7. ive hundred persons aboard 250 boats representing 30 auxiliary flotillas will take part in the weekend celebration activities. This was reported to the Community Chamber of Commerce yesterday by J.

Arthur Fell, a chamber member, who is former commander of Flotilla 304, Orange. He said the decision to rendezvous here was made recently by officials of the coast guard auxiliary. The event was held at Bear Mountain last year. Review of Boats Mr. Fell explained that the rendezvous will consist of a review of the boats, nautical displays, and other activities.

The chamber made plans to pre pare a welcome for the visitors. Til vr.fr'.Z'.AJ I liZ A. P. King, Bruce Road, Middletown Township, and A. C.

Whitaker, 152 Washington Street, Keyport, tests transmission thru long distance waveguides. This method may join coaxial cable and radio relay as a heavy duty transmission medium. Queen Crawl Around Iloom, Picking Up Pins LONDON OH Queen Elizabeth II stars in a story told over tipped teacups in London last week: A West End a a dispatched a sales girl to Buckingham Palace with a selection of summer beauties the Queen said she wanted to see. There was a slight delay, for Elizabeth at the moment was trying on dresses. When she was eventually shown in, the salesgirl was startled to see the Queen crawling around on her hands and knees picking up pins.

"Come in, my dear," the Queen said. "You can't he too careful when you've got children around the house."

Hunting Season Never Closes I It makes no difference whether jhis actions are public or private, or in some cases, whether they are real or imaginary. The hunting season never closes for those who Hike to take potshots at a President. wnetner tnis constant surveillance is good or bad, it exists, always has existed and probably al-'ways will. I The recent case of the meddle-Isome squirrels shows how a small incident becomes magnified because it is close to a President. When Mr.

Eisenhower said the frisky creatures were damaging his green, someone decided they should be toted away. So three were trapped and toted. Momentous Question Before this momentous question died down, Sen. Richard Neuberger (D-Ore.) had made several Senate speeches; James Hagerty, the President's press secretary, had given a lengthy breakdown on who toted what where, and Mr. Eisenhower was asked about it at his news conference.

His reply: Ask the squirrels. The church-going question was brought up by Sen. Matthew Neely who, like Mr. Eisenhower, is a Presbyterian. Senator Neely was critical of the many news pictures showing Mr.

Eisenhower at church. "I object," Senator Neely said, "to connecting religion with politics. Any man who tries to parade his religion that way before the public is ungodly." More Senatorial Speeches This brought another spate of White House Life No President WASHINGTON OB From George Washington to Dwight Eisenhower, the verdict is the same: A President's lot is not a happy If the squirrels damage the putting green on the White House lawn, and three of them are exiled for their crime, the President may be branded an enemy of wildlife. If he goes regularly to church, he may be accused of making a show of his religion. But if he doesn't care much for the way some religious leaders go about their business, he may be called an atheist and a potential destroyer of young American womanhood.

If he likes to tell an occasional Works On A-Driven Seaplane WASHINGTON Oft The Navy, first to use atomic energy for propulsion in its submarine Nautilus, says it is now working toward a nuclear-powered seaplane. Rear Adm. F. R. Furth, chief of naval research, told the Senate Appropriations Committee "our research has also included design studies of a nuclear-powered seaplane." He added: "Nuclear powered aircraft offer the obvious advantage of practically unlimited range with a very high speed, and a sea-based aircraft offers peculiar advantages as a vehicle for exploring nuclear propulsion in aircraft." Potshots senatorial speeches, mostly condemning Senator Neely.

It was almost forgotten that Senator Neely also had fired a couple of shots at Mr. Eisenhower's golfing and fishing habits. If Mr. Eisenhower didn't know what he was getting into when he! hired out as President, it was be-I cause he didn't spend enough time 'studying the career of his prede- Mr. Truman not only stirred up! controversy by firing off letters on everything from music critics who didn't like daughter Mar-j garet's singing to opinions on the Marine Corps.

He also dared to alter the White House, a sure fire way to start the criticism rolling, Mr. Truman's proposal to put 40-foot balcony on the back porch1 of the White House seemed to be condemned by everyone who took a stand on the subject. The fine arts committee, the local cultural guardians, objected. So did arch itects. So did editorial writers.

A hard man to divert once he had set a course, Mr. Truman went right ahead. "Harry's Balcony" lt doubtless will be called as long as the White House stands. Possibly the least criticized President was Washington, with William Henry Harrison, who died a month after taking office, hia chief competitor. But even Washington ran into what he thought wre the "grossest and most insidious misrepresentations" of his administration.

These, he complained, were "in such exaggerated and indecent terms as could scarcely be applied to a Nero, a notorious defaulter, or even to a common pickpocket." 3f Daintlj GuuE 0 kV INVITATION to the BRIDE or the 51S Cookmon Avenue, See our wide selection of exclusive gowns and understand our 'cher ished reputation for beautiful weddings.
