PAGE 4 Tuesday, April 14, 1959 The Battalion College Station (Brazos County), Texas 200 Relay Engineers Meet In Annual Convention Here More than 200 persons through out the United States have regis tered for the 12th annual Confer ence for Protective Relay Engi neers now being held at A&M. The sessions got under way yes terday afternoon and will last through tomorrow. Dr. Glen D. Hallmark, head of the Department of Electrical En gineering, the sponsoring depart ment, gave the welcome address. Norman F. Rode, Department of Electrical Engineering, chaired the afternoon session. “Twenty years ago,” Hallmark said, “few of us were aware of a relatively small group studying applications o f electromagnetic field theory to communication in the very high frequency range. During World War II this work received tremendous emphasis in the development of radar and sub sequently the techniques have been applied to a variety of problems such as microwave relaying, tele vision and other forms of commun ication. “The development of computers and simulation techniques during the last 20 years has had a tre mendous impact on our profession. Most of you know of our active in terest here at A&M in this field. “Twenty years ago,” Halfmark also cited, “work was just begin ning in the application of servo mechanisms t o instrumentation and control. This has resulted in a whole new technology in auto mation and control of industrial processes and machines; 15 years ago, most of us were not aware of the tremendous impact that atomic and nuclear energy was destined to have on our profession; 11 years ago we had the first an nouncement of the development of the transistor which has opened up an entirely new field to elec trical engineers. “More recently the development of guided missiles has required the talents of many of our engi neers and it now appears that the design, control and communica tion problems of space vehicles will require many more of our technical people,” New Jersey has 81 commercial airports.
