Abstract :
A meeting was held on May 13 in Louisville, Kentucky to consider the advantages of establishing a local Section of the Institute in that city. Some sixteen A, I. E. E. members were present and listened to an interesting talk on the value of local Sections given by W. E. Mitchell of the Alabama Power Company, Vice-President of the A. I. E. E. from the Southern District. It was decided that the establishing of a local Section in Louisville would be a distinct advantage to every one concerned and a committee was appointed to complete the formalities and present a report at a meeting to be held in September. Those named on the committee were, E. D. Wood, Operating Electrical Engineer, Louisville Gas & Electric Co. and D. C. Jackson, Jr., Professor of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering at the University of Louisville.
