Abstract :
On the evening of Wednesday, October 27, 1926, the New York Electrical Society will hold the first meeting of the year 1926–27. In line with the practise of the society to give to engineers and to the public reliable information on the most recent developments in the engineering and scientific fields, the meeting of October 27 will be devoted to “The Vitaphone.” Much has appeared in the press relative to the recent application of this development on the New York stage. The complete story of the principles, development and operation of the vitaphone will be outlined to the members of the society and their friends in a popular talk by E. B. Craft, executive vice-president, Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc. Following Mr. Craft, the president of the Vitaphone Corporation, Mr. Walter Rich, will speak on educational and other possibilities. There will follow actual demonstrations of the vitaphone with the reproduction of selections by famous stars.
