| TO R.{Sir Henry Royce} FROM AJS. C. to BJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} PHANTOM - CLUTCH AND FLY WHEEL LIGHTENING. In reference to your recent letter dealing with this subject, and the apparent success of OY's suggested serrated coupling in place of the universal joint inside the clutch, do you not think we might try a similar scheme when making the further lightening as asked for by yourself recently?
