BATCHER HUGO GERNSBACK E. L. BRAGDON KEITH HENNEY GEORGE H. CLARK ARTHUR H. LYNCH C. E. DEAN ROBERT H. MARRIOTT LLOYD ESPENSCHIED DONALD MeNICOL K. B. WARNER FOREWORD Commemorating the " Radio Pioneers Party" of the New York Section of the Institute of Radio Engineers, this souvenir book attempts to present a thumb- nail review of radio before 1926. If it stimulates the memories of the old timers, it will have achieved its purpose. Inevitably, certain of the editors were able to contribute mdre fully than others. Especial mention is made of Lloyd Espenschied who, practically over- night, wrote the outline of history from the chronology by Donald McNicol; and of George H. Clark, confirmed radio historian, whose inexhaustible files made this book possible in the brief time available for its compilation. The preparation of the various committee lists was undertaken by Louis G. Pacent, Hugo Gernsback, and John di Blasi. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the permission granted by Bryan Davis Publishing Company ( Radio Engineering) and Telephone and Telegraph Age for the republishing of the chronology by Donald McNicol. Sincere thanks go to those many others who shared in the preparation of this book. HAROLD P.

    NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES C. CHAPIN CUTLER 1914– 2002 A Biographical Memoir by PING KING TIEN Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoirs, VOLUME 85 PUBLISHED 2004 BY THE NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS WASHINGTON, D.C. C. CHAPIN CUTLER December 16, 1914–December 1, 2002 BY PING KING TIEN HE ECONOMY WAS IN a depression between 1929 and 1934, Tand the country went to World War II between 1941 and 1945. C. Chapin Cutler built his character and his strength in those chaotic years. He led a successful career of research in communication science for more than four decades. His inventions in radio, radar, signal coding, im- aging, and satellite communications earned him more than 80 patents, numerous awards, and a worldwide reputation. Shortly after he received the Alexander Graham Bell Medal from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Cutler said in the spring 1992 issue of the WPI Journal, “I don’t think I’m really that smart. I just think my imagination got turned on at an early age and that gave me tremendous motivation.” Cassius Chapin Cutler was born on December 16, 1914, in Springfield, Massachusetts. He was the son of the late Paul A. and Myra (Chapin) Cutler. He was raised in a small town environment and was educated in the public school systems of western Massachusetts. His resourcefulness and ingenuity had their roots in his youth and later in his edu- cation at Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
