Strong indications of accelerated activity in the field of electronics after the war were much in evidence at the National Electronics Conference held in Chicago, Ill., October 5–7, 1944. More than 2,100 were registered at the conference, and capacity audiences attended the technical sessions and other activities, somewhat overtaxing some of the facilities of the Medinah Club where it was held. The conference was sponsored jointly by the Illinois Institute of Technology, Northwestern University, and the Chicago Sections of the Institute of Radio Engineers and AIEE, with the co-operation of the Chicago Technical Societies´ Council. A second conference already is being planned by the same sponsors for October 1945.
