From page 187...
... HEYDT LUD LISCHER'S office on the 37th floor of the First National Bank Building in Chicago was where many of the most important decisions of long-term energy resources and electric power transmission in the Midwest United States were made. But the background of this engineering leader was simpler and had its roots in Germany and small towns in Indiana.
From page 188...
... He was a fellow of the AIEE and later the IEEE. He served in advisory positions for the Edison Electric Institute, the Electric Research Council, the University of Illinois-Chicago Circle, Eta Kappa Nu, Tau Beta Pi, the Western Society of Engineers, American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and others.
