Harold Whyman - Experimental Manager} Pendulum Levers. In detailing PL.2687, will you please make a detail of a pendulum lever 4.825 long, with the same offset dimension and angle between top and bottom bosses and with the same lever sections. This should have the spline angle of 1o 38' and the 5.325" lever with this spline setting becomes unnecessary. This note confirms verbal arrangement.
