Res Judicata—Personal Injury And Vehicle Property Damage Arising From A Single Accident, John Ilich Jr.

Nebraska Law Review

The following situation illustrates a common occurrence in Nebraska: X suffers personal injuries and his car is damaged as a result of an automobile accident. The first question is whether X has one, or more than one, cause of action. If the cause of action is single, then a judgment on the property damage claim is a bar to a later action for the personal injury and vice versa. This is so because the rule against splitting a single cause of action makes the judgment in the first proceedings res judicata in the second. A second question arises if the …

Labor Law—Federal Court Injunction Against Breach Of No-Strike Clause, G. Bradford Cook

Nebraska Law Review

A union picketed interstate motor carriers to induce non-union clerical employees to join the union, and caused a shutdown of employers' terminals. The employers sought an injunction to specifically enforce the no-strike clause of the collective bargaining agreement in a federal court under Section 301(a) of the Labor Management Relations Act. The main issue of the principal case was whether Section 301(a) repealed by implication the Norris-LaGuardia Act's specific prohibitions against the issuance of an injunction in a labor dispute. Both the Norris-LaGuardia Act and the National Labor Relations Act have as their general objectives the settling of disputes within …

Evolutionary Relationships Among The North American Mallards, Paul A. Johnsgard

Papers in Ornithology

A comparative morphological, behavioral, and electrophoretic study was undertaken on six populations of North American mallards that are currently considered by the A.O.U. Check-list to comprise four species and two additional subspecies. These include Anas p. platyrhynchos, A. d. diaxi, A. d. novimexicana, A. f. fulvigula, A. f. maculosa, and A. rubripes. These forms are essentially allopatric in their breeding distributions, with the major exception of A. p. platyrhynchos and A. rubripes, which overlap throughout a several-hundred-mile zone in east-central United States.

Geographic ranges and population sizes are estimated, and evidence is presented to indicate that the …

Pair-Formation Mechanisms In Anas (Anatidae) And Related Genera, Paul A. Johnsgard

Paul Johnsgard Collection

Although the" courtship" behaviour of waterfowl has attracted widespread interest and has been the subject of several major papers (e.g. Heinroth 1911, Lorenz 1951-1953), the actual means by which pairs are formed in most species of waterfowl remains unknown. We may conclude by inference that the females of most species of ducks must actively "select" their mates, for the elaborate male displays and plumage patterns present in the group can only be reconciled in terms of sexual selection. In addition, any observer of waterfowl will soon realize that it is the males which actively " court" the females, and that …

A Quantitative Study Of Sexual Behavior Of Mallards And Black Ducks, Paul A. Johnsgard

Papers in Ornithology

In recent years an increased interest in the use of behavioral characteristics in evolutionary studies has developed, and this is particularly true in the case of waterfowl. The classical studies of Heinroth (1911), who was one of the first to apply knowledge of waterfowl behavior to systematics, have been elaborated on by Lorenz (1941; 1951-1953) in his important contribution toward the understanding of relationships in the Anatinae. These, and other, studies have stressed the qualitative behavioral differences occurring among different species as providing possible isolating mechanisms through their presumed function of conveying species-specific recognition signals. To the present, no extensive …

An Analysis Of Pheasant Nesting In Southcentral Nebraska, Raymond L. Linder, David L. Lyon, C. Phillip Agee

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: Staff Research Publications

The ring-necked pheasant (Phasianus colchicus) constitutes the most important species of upland game bird in Nebraska. According to Mohler (1960), Nebraska's population is the result of a relatively small introduction; probably not more than 500 pairs were brought into the state between the years 1915 and 1925-the period of initial establishment. Through natural increase and dispersal, aided by a program of trapping and transplanting, a population estimated to be more than one million was reached by 1930 (Swenk, 1930). The statewide population continued an upward trend until the early '40 's and then began to decline. Coincident with …

Nebraska Law Review

Defendant alleged a denial of due process under the Fourteenth Amendment and of his constitutional and statutory right to counsel under the law of Nebraska. Proof showed that the trial court advised defendant that he was "entitled to be represented by counsel," and that defendant misunderstood this to mean he could have a lawyer only …

Hybridization In The Anatide And Its Taxonomic Implications, Paul A. Johnsgard

Papers in Ornithology

Without doubt, waterfowl of the family Anatidae have provided the greatest number and variety of bird hybrids originating from both natural and captive conditions. The recent compilation by Gray (1958) has listed approximately 400 interspecies hybrid combinations in this group, which are far more than have occurred in any other single bird family. Such a remarkable propensity for hybridization in this group provides a great many possibilities for studying the genetics of speciation and the genetics of plumage and behavior, and it also provides a valuable tool for judging species relationships. It may generally be said that the more closely …

The Dispersal And Acclimatization Of The Muskrat, Ondatra Zibethicus (L.), In Finland, Atso Artimo

Other Publications in Wildlife Management

The natural range of the muskrat, Ondatra zibethicus (L.), comprises the major part of the North American continent (Fig. 1). In the northern and eastern parts of its range its distribution is more or less continuous, but in the arid west it is very patchy. The species is absent from some areas which, according to Storer (1938), are suitable for it. This writer assumes (op.cit. pp. 159-160) that »Muskrats probably reached some of the now isolated waters of the West during a period when aquatic and palustrine habitats were more widespread, in late Pleistocene or postglacial times. With subsequent contraction …
