1. presented the philosophy of the cata-
loging programs, namely, that the transcuer and actuator
with an intermediate amplifier was a communication system
to which information theory could be applied. The figure
of merit will be a comparison of the transducer performance
based on the uncertainty principle. He also explained the
details of the mechanics of cataloging. A complete re ort
of this presentation will be forwarded to APD by
2. will have the final details ready to pre-
sent a meeting to take place near the end of February at
3. APD received a proposal for Phase 2 of the
Actuator Index. The increase in funds proposed is $15,295.30

$2500.00 will remain from Phase I at the expiration on
15 May 1954.
4. It was tentatively agreed that 5 copies of the
