  • Dr. Marvin R. Bensman
    Radio Pioneer: Victor H. Laughter Dr. Marvin R. Bensman We know rather little about the earliest history of wireless development other than stories about those particular pioneers whose efforts were influential or successful. It should not surprise those who study that history to discover that many individuals did not achieve success but contributed much. One fascinating story that has never been told is that of Mr. Victor H. Laughter. Victor H. Laughter was born January, 1888, in Byhalia, Mississippi. 1 At the age of 12, Laughter and his sister Belva boarded with Andersen W. Meely of Byhalia, Mississippi, while attending the Waverly Institute. 2 They may have been orphaned. It was during this time, in 1900, that Laughter built his first experimental wireless set. Later, Belva married a Mr. Joseph Thompson and moved to Memphis. 3 We have no direct record of Victor H. Laughter's further education in the field of wireless or electricity, but he most likely attended some college or institute between 1906 and 1909. In 1909, his book, Operator's Wireless Telegraph and Telephone Handbook, was published by Frederick J. Drake and Company. The book was written ". with the end in view of leading the student through the experimental stage, on up to the more complicated types of wireless telegraph and telephone instruments."4 The book was a well written and complete description of the wireless field up to that time, with a section on Dr. Lee deForest's audion which had only been patented that year. Laughter noted: "The Audion has proven very sensitive for use in wireless telephony, yet it is doubtful that it will ever come into wide use, owing to the difficulty in manufacture and short life."5 This was a true statement for that time.

  • Tennessee Innovators: Clarence Saunders and David Crosthwait Table of Contents
    Tennessee Innovators: Clarence Saunders and David Crosthwait Table of Contents Pages 1. Content Essay 2-3 2. High School Activity 4-5 3. Primary Source: Images 6 1 Clarence Saunders and David Crosthwait Essential Questions: What innovations did Clarence Saunders introduce to food purchasing and retail marketing? What contributions did David Crosthwait make to engineering? Clarence Saunders was born in 1881 in Virginia. His parents were very poor. The Saunders family soon moved to Montgomery County, Tennessee where Saunders grew up. He took a job working for a wholesale grocer in Clarksville. In his early 20’s Clarence Saunders moved to Memphis and took a sales position in a Memphis grocery. He enjoyed the work, but disliked the inefficiency of the sales methods used in grocery stores of the day. Grocery stores placed items on shelves with counters between the customers and the sales items. Shoppers would tell store clerks standing behind the counters what they wanted and the clerks would pull it off the shelves. The process took a long time and led Saunders to develop the idea of self-service. The idea of self-service was not entirely new but Clarence Saunders was the man who was instrumental in selling the idea to the consumer. With his more modern approach to grocery sales Clarence Saunders opened his first store September 11, 1916. Piggly Wiggly stores opened with the idea of self-service and lower costs for the consumer. When asked where he got the name for the store, Saunders told people he chose the name so that people would ask that very question.
