External Sources Of Funds For The Economic Development Of Venezuela, S. S. Shinde

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Economic development of a country is generally regarded as an urgent need. It is necessary to improve the standard of living, promote mass education, and improve the general health of the people.

An Analysis Of Parental Attitudes Toward The Instrumental Music Program In The High Schools Of Bingham County, Idaho, Clark R. Gardner

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Since the end of World War I instrumental music has become an important and accepted part of the secondary school curriculum (17, pp. 56-59). According to a recent report published by the American Music Conference, Chicago, Illinois (19, p. 3), there were in 1963 eleven million students studying music in the schools of America.

There have been numerous studies conducted to determine the purpose and objectives of instrumental music. Many studies have also been made to ascertain what the parents' feelings are toward their schools. Yet there has been very little research or study accomplished concerning the feelings or attitudes …

Her Hour Upon The Stage: A Study Of Anne Bracegirdle, Restoration Actress, Julie Ann Farrer

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

It has always been for me a personal source of regret that so much dramatic art is wasted, so to speak, on the unknowing times. The performances of many actors and actresses have often been of greater creative value and artistic invention than the efforts of the playwrights themselves. Yet the annals of history preserve, for all time, the written word, while the sound and emotion of great acting is lost with its moment. Only the scant impressions of the casual playgoer survive to bring back a faded view of what glory the stage must have known when great talents …

Basic Problems In Playing The Cornet, Loyal J. West

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

After having spent a number of years in the teaching profession, the writer has become aware of the need for a study dealing with the specific and technical problems in playing the cornet.

The problems of performance on the cornet may readily be divided into three groups: (1) those having to do with the instrument, (2) those having to do with the player, and (3) those having to do with the interpretation of music. The problems of playing the cornet will be dealt with in this paper only as they apply directly to the problems of learning the instrument itself. …

Determining And Telemetering Snowpack Water Content In Mountainous Terrain, Stephen Davis Clarke

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Snowpack water content is an important parameter in streamflow forecasts. At the present time water content of the snowpack is determined by manual methods, which are often expensive and time-consuming. The use of a pressure pillow to determine water content has shown promise in experimental applications.

The design and analysis of a pressure transducer suitable for use with remote telemetry equipment is presented. The transducer uses changing fluid pressure to vary an inductor.

Telemetry techniques suitable for use on Utah snow courses are analyzed. Emphasis is given to the passive and active remote radio relays.

A Study Of 5-Fluorouracil: Its Effects And Mode Of Action In Drosophila Melanogaster, John B. Jenkins Jr.

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Investigations involving the fluorinated pyrimidine, 5-fluorouracil, and its effects on viruses, bacteria, plants and mammals, have brought to light the following facts: FU inhibits the growth of bacteria, plants and mammalian cells and it decreases the ability of certain viruses to produce progeny. In other words, FU is an antimetabolite that inhibits growth and/or reproduction. Two mechanisms have emerged from these studies to define the mode of action of FU. The first mechanism involves the incorporation of the compound into the RNA of the organism thus altering the base sequence and creating a non functional or damaging nucleic acid. The …

The Use Of "Fashion Therapy" As Adjunctive Therapy In The Rehabilitation Of Psychiatric Patients, Virginia Geddes Eyestone

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Mental illness is one of the greatest public health problems and foremost challenges of our time. However, because of improved medical practices and modern research methods, more mental patients are now being released and returned to society than at any other recorded period.

The mentally ill person loses touch with reality. Things that once were of primary concern are no longer important. Many mental patients become accustomed to carelessness in dress and personal habits. This state of deterioration often remains as a mark of mental illness, and the resulting inappropriate dress frequently limits the activity of the individual. The patient …

Mechanical Transmission Of A Latent Virus From Apple To Herbaceous Plants, Ali Majid Jafri

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Recent work has shown that viruses are widely disseminated in commercial apple trees growing in this country (1, 14, 16, 17)—quite often one or more latent viruses are found in these plants. Usually latent viruses produce no symptoms, except in special indicator hosts. Latent viruses may cause severe injury when infected plants are grafted to a sensitive variety or rootstock. Actual damage caused by most of the apple viruses is not known but some of these definitely cause serious losses. Experimental plots at Utah State University were ruined by stem pitting virus infection. However, other latent viruses were also present …

A Study Of The Development Of The Sexual Stage Of Rhytisma Punctatum (Pers.) Fries, Ching-Fei Chen

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Speckled tar spot caused by Rhytisma punctatum (Persoon) Fries is often found on maples in many parts of the world (Holden, 1961; Koval', 1960; Saccardo, 1889). In Northern Utah it develops every year on leaves of Acer grandidentatum Nutt., and it is especially abundant at elevations above 6,000 feet, where often it is difficult to find even one uninfected leaf. The black speckled spots and the associated leaf coloring tend to add to the brilliance of the autumn colors normally found in the leaves of Bigtooth Maple.

A Comparison Of The Academic Achievement And Social Adjustment Of Mentally Retarded Students, C. Thomas Musgrave

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Public awareness of the problem of mental retardation is relatively new. Professional services in this area are less than one hundred and fifty years old in America. In essence, the treatment of the mentally retarded since ancient times has been very harsh. The Spartans from ancient Greece left all defectives exposed to the elements to die. They were treated with aversion and subjected to many indignities.

Physiological And Biochemical Factors Influencing The Quality Of Canned And Freeze-Dehydrated Applesauce, Yuen San Lee

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Applesauce has long been considered an important food product in the United States. Approximately 25 percent of the fresh apples used by the industry in the U.S. are converted into sauce. Recent statistics indicated a further increase in consumption (Canning Trade Almanac, 1964). The reason why so large portion of the crop have been utilized for sauce manufacture is that we can use the desirable varieties for blending techniques in making sauce, and its fine particle character has some advantages as a kind of baby food.

According to the U.S. standard grades of canned applesauce, Grade A (Fancy) applesauce should …

Activation Of Prorennin At Low Ph Values, Nazar A. Shukri

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Rennin is the main milk-clotting enzyme in the fourth stomach of young calves. This enzyme has been crystallized and studied by several workers such as Hankinson, Berridee, and Ernstrom, and found to be heterogeneous. It is a proteolytic enzyme, which exhibits its maximum activity on hemoglobin, bovine serum albumin, and casein in the region of pH 3.4 - 4.0. It has a specificity similar to, but narrower than, that of pepsin.

Cacodylic Acid As A Silvicide, Maurice W. Day

Aspen Bibliography

This report deals with the effectiveness of cacodylic acid (dimethylarsenic acid) as a silvicide for undesirable trees. Cacodylic acid has been used successfully as an herbicide for the destruction of grasses and weeds. Experimental work with this material was begun during the 1963 field season, and continued during 1964, to permit complete evaluation of the results. It appears that cacodylic acid has considerable potential as a silvicide.

Preliminary Report On Selection And Breeding Of Honeybees For Alfalfa Pollen Collection, William P. Nye, O. Mackensen

All PIRU Publications

Some colonies of honeybees on alfalfa collect a much higher percentage of alfalfa pollen than others. The possibility of genetic differences between colonies was investigated. Colonies collecting high and low percentages of alfalfa pollen were first selected. Daughters of queens from three 'high' and three 'low' colonies were inseminated from their brothers, and colonies headed by queens of these six lines were tested. Colonies headed by sister queens were more similar in the proportion of alfalfa pollen they collected than were those headed by unrelated queens. This suggests heritability of the factor studied. On the other hand no correlation was …
