Using a diagram of the spectrum of light frequencies Mr. Cook explained the high- er the frequency of light waves, the more messages they can carry. He said the Laser section of the spectrum although relatively narrow because of its high frequency, has room for about a million times more messages than the wide range of frequencies we now use for communica- tions purposes. o A dim limi sunita taesdusisland diverter ain sd at date Ee en etl 1 1 ge, THE a RA FT I an a Sa prio A v 2 0 EL Da a 4 v BL EE ATA c - ~~ Shed Sra tere) re Comparing Laser light -- i with ordinary light, Mr. Cook said light given off by a light bulb is disorganized or incoherent while Laser light is organized.
