http://purl.stanford.edu/yd991zt8254 Particular mention should be made of Professors Joseph S. Carroll and William G. Hoover, whose help in the design and construction of the high-voltage equipment was invaluable. The author is likewise indebted to Professor Frederick E. Terman, Dean of the School of Engineering; Professor Hugh H. Skilling, Executive Head of the Department of Electrical Engineering; and Professor Karl Spangenberg for their helpful suggestions. Thanks are due Professors Laurence A. Manning and Oswald G. Villard, Jr. for their many stimulating comments
