Abstract :
On the evening of Thursday, February 13, 1930, the New York Section of A. I. E. E. will hold a general meeting jointly with the New York Electrical Society on “What Electricity is Not.” The speaker will be Doctor Vladimir Karapetoff of Cornell University. Doctor Karapetoff who is well known to the Institute membership, will review the various theories which have been developed in the past as to what electricity is or is not. He will then discuss the conceptions of the present day. Demonstrations to emphasize the high spots of the Doctor´s talk are being arranged. As this meeting will be of rather unusual interest, admission will be by ticket only. Reservation cards will accompany the Section notice which will be mailed to the membership about the first of February.
