POCKET TRANSMITTER
IS NOVEL ‘3Y-PRODUGT
‘OF BELL SCIENTISTS
This and Other New Devices
Demonstrated in Penna.
by Sergius P. Grace
Scientists in the Bell Telephone
Laboratories, Ine, New York, where
virtually every invention aflecting the
art of telephony is originated and
developed, have perfceted two new de-
vices that seem destined to play im-
portant parts in the future of the
communications industry.
These new developments are a min-
iture transmitter and an automatic
telephone call announcer. Both de-
vices have been exhibited and demon-
strated before large audiences in
Pittsburgh and Philadelphia by Ser-
gius P. Grace, assistant vice president
of the Laboratories, whose addresses
in both cities were heard by thousands
of persons anxious to obtain first hand
knowledge on the development of the
telephone industry.
During the last year, Mr. Grace also
presented demonstrations and lectures
in Bethlehem and Harrisburg, and in
each instance he was greeted by en-
thusiastic audiences, who were amazed
by the scientific demonstrations he
performed with equipment that is in
use daily throughout the Bell System.
The miniature transmitter, which
was designed for use in connection
with public address amplification sys-
tems and for radio broadcasting, is
so small that it can be placed in a
man’s vest pocket.
During the lectures, Mr. Grace had
the device attached to large loud
speakers, which carried his voice
clearly to every part of the audito-
riums.
The tiny transmitter amplifier is
go sensitive that it picks up in proper
balance, vibrations from the chest of
the speaker and acoustic vibrations
in the air, which results in speech
being reproduced with great natural
ness.
The automatic call announcer is one
of the Laboratories’ most amazing in-
ventions. This device is for use in
central offices in the large cities,
where thousands of telephone calls
must pass through two exchanges.
In operation, it functions this way
a subscriber dials a te dep hone num-
ber and the device, located in a cen-
tral office, translates the electrical
impulses into the proper numbers and
actually says the numbers to the dis-
tant operator, who completes the call.
The staff at the Laboratories num-
bers about 5500 men and women,
more than half of whom are scien-
tists. Their sole aim is to make more
perfect the art of communication.
Most of their work is of direct benefit
to the communications industry and
the public that utilizes s these facilities,
although frequently their incidental
discoveries are of pronounced humani-
tarian value. In this connection, they
invented the artificial larynx, which
enables persons who have lost their
power of speech through operations to
regain their vocal powers. Bell scien-
tists also perfected the electrical
stethoscope for recording heart beats.
This device has won the commendation
of leading medical men throughout
the country.
