Abstract :
The 1945 Lamme Medalist, David C. Prince, is first and foremost an inventer with 93 patents to his credit covering subjects ranging from electric ship propulsion to welding circuits. A consistent breaker of tradition, he is one of those who have the ability and imagination to think in terms of progress in broad steps regardless of the seeming insurmountability of the problems confronting them. He is considered an ideal choice for the medal which symbolizes the engineer´s hopeful attitude toward the seemingly unattainable.
