Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} X1110 E.1/HP.11.5.36. re Borg and Beck Clutch. Referring to the points raised with regard to the appearance of the pressure plate at the last conference with Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}, I am assuming that you will deal with getting this matter attended to by Messrs. Borg and Beck. It will be remembered that firstly, we want the name "Qualcast" removed and secondly, some more machining and tidying up carried out to eliminate some of the blemishes on the casting.
