| -2- TELEPHONE NO 4495. (2 LINES.) Engineering Laboratory, Cambridge. 7th November, 1938 a new Y alloy rotor cast. Would you prefer that R.R. should do this or shall I get it done locally to save time? I have done a lot more work with this apparatus which has aroused some interest (mild and academic) and am sending the report I sent you with trimmings to the A.R.C. , which I suppose is equivalent to giving it a ceremonial burial ! Hope to see you again in Derby sometime soon. Yours sincerely, [Signature] Wing Commander. | ||
