HULL I FIRST BECAME interested in radio when an undergraduate at the University of Kansas in the days when carborundum and Gen. Dunwoody were equally famous, and the rotary spark gap was an innovation," says Lewis M. Hull of the Radio Frequency Laboratories at Boonton, N. J. He adds, speaking of his research at Cruft Radio Laboratory at Harvard and at the Bureau of Standards in Washington: "and I've since been making futile but persistent efforts to see things invisible and hear things inaudible." Doctor Hull admits a fondness for historical novels and counterpoint. CARL DREHER sends us the second article of his interesting series on the receiver and the received this month. He is a radio engineer who is as much as home in the unrelated fields of philosophy, sociology, and literature as among the big quiet tubes of a broadcasting station. He is a quiet sort, but mention of the movies is apt to cause trouble. He is in charge of WJZ and WJY. WALTER VAN B. ROBERTS is doing research work in physics at Princeton. In the intervals he plays golf and writes radio articles. W. VAN B. ROBERTS
