phia, giving 240 "two-way" talking
circuits. AS the New York-Philadel
phia cable is still used simply for
experimental purposes, only SO
channels are now equipped in each
direction.
The coaxial cable is only a part
Of the new transmission system to
which it has given it's name. It is
an important part, since it provides
the conductor of the system. 1t
would, however, De ineffective if it
were not supplemented by compli-
Gated terminal equipment, by inter-
mediate simplifying apparatus, and
by number of auxiliary devices, all
of which, with the cable, make up
the broad-band coaxial cable system.
Repeaters Placed Every 10 Miles
At ten-mile intervals, the cable
is provided with repeaters, most OF
which are placed in or near man
holes, where they are expected to
function for considerable periods
without attention. About half Of the
repeaters have an attachment for
changing their amplification to COM
pensate for changes in the tempera-
ture Of the copper pipe" line. Each
of the twenty loops used for the pur-
poses Of the demonstration had 20
one-way amplifers. Transmission
went through each amplitier twenty
times, a total of 400 amplifications.
At the time of the demonstration,
engineers of the Bell Telephone
Laboratories stated that the per-
Torrance of the new system, as used
for experimental purposes, had been
up to expectations, and that no i'm
portant technical difficulties had
arisen to cast doubt upon the use
fulness of such systems. Much work
remains to be done, however, before
coaxial systems suitable for general
commercial service can be produced.

his niece. The Club was asked to
investigate rumors of the death Of
Mr.. Leroy Lynch. 1t was found that
Mr.. Lynch is alive and the Club
has taken it upon itself to do its
part in: seeing Mr.. Lynch with his
people. It is understood that Ala
bama is his native state.

The twin "voice tubes" which
form the coaxial telephone cable In
stalled experimentaily during the
past summer between New York and
Philadelphia we're given their first
public test last December, when
two-way conversations were held
between two adjoining rooms in
New York City which were con
nected by a circuit $500 miles in
length. The length OF the cable It.
self is 95 miles, and the 3,S00-mile
circuit was made up by linking to-
gether 20 two-way loops of 100 miles
each. These loops" were simply diff
ferent frequencies on the same
coaxial limits.
Instead of the usual bundle Of
paper-insulated wires which form
the core of the familiar telephone
cable, this new coaxial cable con-
tains a pair Of copper tubes. Each
Of these is approximately the size of
an ordinary lead pencil, while with
in it is a wire, about the size of a
pencil lead, which is held centrally
by thin discs of hard rubber.
Can Carry 24o Messages
AS many messages can pass
through this pair of tubes as now
go through an ordinary toll cable
the size OF a mans arm. This ex-
perimental coaxial-cable system can
transmit a miliion-cycle band, which
is about the same as the band as
signed for broadcasting to all radio
broadcasting stations in this coun-
try. This range can be split up into
bands" each Of which provides a
separate talking channel. Ultimately
$40 of these channels would enter
one coaxial pipe" at New York,
bound for Philadelphia, and the
same number of return channels
would enter the pipe" at Philadel-

Decidedly. The kind Of council
