Fellow Americans : Source Material For A Unit On Brazil With Emphasis On The Region Surrounding The Amazon River., Henrietta Frances Alpiger

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Teachers are a busy group. Contrary to the belief of many persons who are not in close contact with a teacher, the school day does not end when the children leave the building. No indeed--there are faculty meetings, committee meetings, P.T.A. meetings, educational association meetings and supervisor meetings to mention but a few of the functions every teacher is expected to attend. In the evening there are papers to grade, lessons to prepare, professional books and articles to read, and numerous records of many varieties to keep. Few teachers enjoy the luxury of an eight hour working day. It is …

A Study Of Veterans Readmitted To Nichols Veterans Administration Hospital, Louisville, Kentucky, After Having Been Discharged "Improved" And Received "Maximum Hospital Benefits" From April Through December, 1946., Jeanne Lacourse

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This is a study of patients readmitted to Nichols Veterans Administration Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky during the period of April through December of 1946. This particular project was undertaken because on general observation, there appeared to be an unusual number of patients being readmitted to the hospital after having received "maximum hospital benefits" at a previous hospital admission and having been discharged "improved". To bear out this observation, a sample study was made over a ten day period and it was found that 14 percent of all the patients being admitted were readmissions. Since this was true, the question arose …

The thesis finds that English upper and middle classes generally sympathized with the Confederacy, influenced by historical parallels to the …


Tragic Implications Of Man's Frustration By Society In Three Of Dreiser's Novels., Susan Mae Robinson Mar 1947

Tragic Implications Of Man's Frustration By Society In Three Of Dreiser's Novels., Susan Mae Robinson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this paper is to examine three of Dreiser's major novels in order (1) to show that his philosophy of life is exemplified in his fiction and (2) to determine whether or not his ideas undergo any change. The three novels chosen for this study are The "Genius", An American Tragedy, and The Bulwark, because they cover a span of American life, as Dreiser saw it, from the time of his greatest productivity until his death--a period of thirty years. The first part of the thesis will contain: (1) a general background of the period of which Dreiser …

A Study Of The Academic Success Of Group Three In Halleck Hall Junior High School., Irene T. Hughes

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An attempt has been made, under the direction of the principal, to classify pupils entering Halleck Hall Junior High School, into homogeneous groups. The low group composed of slow learners is known as Group Three. When the pupils enter Halleck Hall Junior High School, they are classified on …

Heat Transfer To Fuel Oil In Viscous Flow-Characteristics Of A Fin-Type Heat Exchanger., Boyd R. Abbott Jr.

The heat exchanger was of the shell and tube type, having extended longitudinal steel fins welded to the tube. Auxiliary equipment consisted of an oil pump, oil storage reservoirs, piping, and means for measurement of temperatures and oil flow rates. The unit was operated both as a fin type heat exchanger with the oil in contact with the finned surfaces, and as a straight tube and shell exchanger with the oil on the tube side. Oil flow rates …


A Study Of German-Austrian Refugees In Louisville, Kentucky., Lina K. Wolff Jan 1945

A Study Of German-Austrian Refugees In Louisville, Kentucky., Lina K. Wolff

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This paper will deal with the adjustment of refugees in an American middle-sized city, Louisville, Kentucky. It will attempt to touch the background and past of the group, but it will be pointed to a question which indeed is vital to each refugee: What does he make of his life after immigration? Can what was in origin compulsory, become constructive for the future? Will America for him be more than a haven of refuge after a harassing persecution - will it be a home for him and his children? And the answer to these questions is inextricably tied up with …
