SchooZ of Medicine, University of California at Los Angeles1 the Veterans Administration Hospital, Long Beach, Californiaâ (Received for publication April 30, 1952) SINCE Dempsey Morison first described the recruiting in 1942 (2, 3), numerous studies have been conducted in the attempt to determine its mechanism functional significance. These studies have shown that the recruiting can be elicited over wide cortical areas by repetitive stimulation of any point in the intralaminar nuclei or the centre median (7), or in the ventralis anterior the rostra1 pole of the reticular nucleus (8). Upon stimulation of any of these nuclei, thalamic recruiting s can be recorded from all from the associational thalamic nuclei as well. It has thus been suggested that the principal transmission of recruitment to the cortex occurs through connections with the thalamic associational nuclei, that s are limited to cortical areas having projections from them in both the cat (8) monkey (9). In addition, the thalamic nuclei from which the recruiting originates have connections with the striatum (8, 9). These thalamic nuclei receive collateral fibers from the main somatic sensory auditory pathways (10) from the splanchnic the visual systems as well (5). Thus, the diffuse thalamic projection system seems
