Sal 4) Spel a OS ¢ AG Loy Bunk of World Famed Radin Engineer As members of the class of ‘23, we think it our duty to have in the pages of history a record of the work of the late Armand Saare. We are proud to see the name of a member of our class rank in history with that of his fellow-townsman, Luther Burbank, and many other famous scientists. Mr. Saare started out on his great career with us in his high school days. While in his early teens he became noted for his astonishing abaility in con- structing a radiophone, the Sarson, which bears his name. This set uses the triple inverse duplex circuit, as well as neutralization of capacity coup- ling. This was just one of Mr. Saare’s inventions. At the time of his death, he was president of the Radio Corporation of America. The following are extracts from his log book: Jan. (29,1928: Radio Bennett Valley.

When she remonstrated with Mr. Byron Delzelle McCormick for searching the title of the French Duke de Delzelle in Ireland rather than France, McCormick is reported to have retorted in the words of Emerson, “‘A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.’’ Miss McCanse, in defending him from the ridicule of the public for his attempt to secure a title, also quoted Emerson to this effect: “To be great is to be misunderstood.” August 17, 1953.
