Introduction THIS INDEX is the fourth issued since the Society was founded and began regular publication of a technical periodical in 1916. The earlier indexes covered periods ending with 1930, 1935 and 1945. All entries have been chosen to provide a minimum of duplications under different but related subject headings. This keeps the Index to a minimum practical size for the easiest possible use. As a further aid to locating a specific item in the Subject section, all subject headings have been grouped in a single list given on pp. 5-7 so the reader can scan them quickly. Items within each subject group are arranged with the most recent article cited first. Committee reports, besides appearing under the appro- priate subject, are also listed under SOCIETY ACTIVITIES — Commit- tees, Reports. Standards will also be found under the particular subject heading and in addition are listed in two special indexes: one arranged alphabetically by subject begins on p. 71; and the other arranged by serial number begins on p. 73. From 1946 through 1950 there were several supplemental publica- tions that should be noted: single volume indexes were provided as a separate Part II of the June and December JOURNALS in 1948, 1949 and 1950. During 1946 and 1947, they were printed as attached pages of each January and June issue. Membership Directories were issued in 1946, dated June 30, with supplemental listings in the JOURNAL for June 1947; in 1948 as Part II of the September JOURNAL and in 1950 as Part II of the May JOURNAL. A group of papers on high-speed photography was published as a separate paper-bound supplement (Part II) of the JOURNAL for March 1949, and then reprinted as the first volume of a series on the subject. The entire November 1949 JOURNAL was devoted to a second group of such papers and in reprint form became High Speed Photography Vol. 2. Volume 3 of the series was issued in May 1951 as a composite reprint of all high-speed photography papers published in the JOURNAL during 1950. This Index provides references only for the original appearance in the JOURNAL of each particular paper. Volume 3 contains a cumulative index to all three volumes, plus an extensive 17-page bibliography on the subject which appeared first in the January 1951 JOURNAL. A list of all available Society publications will be sent to anyone who requests it of Society headquarters.
