Abstract :
The 1940 AIEE summer convention, which will be held in Swampscott, Mass., June 24–28, will provide a business and technical program of broad interest, with opportunity for sports, trips, and social recreation. Swampscott, on Boston´s north shore, affords unlimited opportunity for healthful outdoor enjoyment, and the committee expects to make this convention a gathering place for many family groups. The technical program has been so arranged that the sessions on communication and electronics, as well as the frequency-modulation demonstration, occur during the early part of the convention to permit members interested in these subjects to attend the 15th annual convention of the Institute of Radio Engineers, at Hotel Statler, Boston, Mass., June 27–29 Members also are reminded that as the semiannual meeting of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers is being held in Milwaukee, Wis., June 17–20, those traveling from the west may conveniently attend both meetings.
