A Study Comparing The Educational Proficiency Of The One-Room Rural School Graduates And The Town Elementary School Graduates Found In The Freshman And Sophomore Classes Of Six East Central High Schools In South Dakota, William V. Hass Jan 1948

A Study Comparing The Educational Proficiency Of The One-Room Rural School Graduates And The Town Elementary School Graduates Found In The Freshman And Sophomore Classes Of Six East Central High Schools In South Dakota, William V. Hass

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

There has been considerable discussion in recent years concerning the educational proficiency of the eighth grade graduates of one-room rural schools as compared to that of the eighth grade graduates of independent town and consolidated schools as they enter our high schools. These discussions have not been limited to educational circles alone but have also interested members of the general public. In these discussions opinions are many and factors are few. Conclusions in the majority of cases are based on what the individual wishes to believe true, not what is actually true. In making a study of the above named …

The Development Of Professional Education For Social Work At The Raymond A. Kent School Of Social Work Of The University Of Louisville, 1918-1946., Maurice L. Kohnhorst Jan 1948

The Development Of Professional Education For Social Work At The Raymond A. Kent School Of Social Work Of The University Of Louisville, 1918-1946., Maurice L. Kohnhorst

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

It would be impossible to single out any individual or group and give credit tor the development of the Raymond A. Kent School of Social Work. There are names which bring to mind real achievement and tremendous effort in the field which they had chosen and to which they had dedicated their service; names which lived through years of discouragement and disillusionment; names which perhaps have been forgotten with the passage of time but played vital roles in different periods of the development of the school. This, therefore, is not an account of things happening, but in reality, an account …

Water And Water Vapor Barriers For Structural Plywood : Ii. Core Void Fillers For Structural Plywood., James Van Dyck Fear Sep 1947

Water And Water Vapor Barriers For Structural Plywood : Ii. Core Void Fillers For Structural Plywood., James Van Dyck Fear

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis presents the results of an investigation conducted to improve the weather resistance of plywood assemblies used in prefabricated housing manufacture. Specifically, this work involved water sealers for edge joints (called edge sealers), the prevention of surface transfer of water vapor through plywood (called vapor barriers), and fillers for structural defects in the wood (called core void fillers). Two edge sealers for plywood were developed that were considered successful in resisting water permeation. One was a quick drying paint formulated by the addition of 30 per cent leaded zinc oxide to 70 per cent Arco primer paint No. 156. …


A Study Of The Academic Success Of Veteran Former Probation Students In The College Of Arts And Sciences Of The University Of Louisville., Rollin E. Godfrey Aug 1947

A Study Of The Academic Success Of Veteran Former Probation Students In The College Of Arts And Sciences Of The University Of Louisville., Rollin E. Godfrey

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The University of Louisville, like most other universities, played an important role in World War II in the training of Service Men for active duty in the Navy, and now in the post-war era, finds herself taxed to the limit to provide educational facilities for her veteran students. To admit large numbers of students, whether veteran or non veteran, without some sort of screening process to identify those who obviously could not do college work would be wasteful of manpower and public moneys. The policy which the University has used for many years is known to be a valid procedure, …


A Substitute For Wood Veneer., Edwin R. Arbegust Jun 1947

A Substitute For Wood Veneer., Edwin R. Arbegust

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis is a report of an investigation for a substitute for wood veneer to be used as face material for wire-bound boxes. The fiberboard substitute was made using a heavy paper backing with a wood waste mixture of chips and sawdust with various types of adhesive binders. The following adhesives were used singly and in mixtures: Starch, sodium silicate, asphalt emulsion, animal glue, urea resin with a wheat flour extender, rosin, and casein. The composition and test results of the fiberboard panels made in the laboratory are reported.


High Temperature Coatings., Irvin Henry Lutz Jun 1947

High Temperature Coatings., Irvin Henry Lutz

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis is a report on coatings exclusive of the porcelain enamels which may be used at temperatures as high as 750*F., and also a description of the properties of the more heat resistant resins of commerce. The method of preparation and testing of the various coatings investigated in this research is given, and the results are tabulated and discussed. Best results were obtained with Dow Corning silicones of the 800 series heavily pigmented with either zinc dust or aluminum bronze, and with glycerol phthalate -- silicone coatings pigmented with aluminum bronze.

Of these, a total of 15 cities replied fully or partially to the questionnaires. Municipalities replying to all three sections of the survey were: Birmingham, Alabama; Denver, Colorado; Louisville, Kentucky; St. Paul, Minnesota; Rochester, New York; Cincinnati, Ohio; Columbus, Ohio; Toledo, Ohio; San Antonio, Texas. …

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 …

Trotsky And The Moscow Treason Trials., Albert L. Boiter Jan 1947

Trotsky And The Moscow Treason Trials., Albert L. Boiter

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Someone has said that Hitler failed to conquer Russia because there was no strong internal ally, i.e. 'Fifth Column', to prepare for his armies. Such an opinion heaps enormous credit upon Joseph Stalin because he launched investigations and trials of alleged traitors as early as 1935. Some critics prefer to call the trials and resultant executions 'blood purges' since they also served the purpose of eliminating virtually all of Stalin's political opponents. Long before the rest of the world learned by tragic experience about the infiltration methods of the Nazis, Stalin's government claimed that it had uncovered a fascist-supported conspiracy …


The First Approximate Conditions For The Formation Of Mesomorphous Coacervates., Stanley H. Jury 1916-1983 Jan 1947

The First Approximate Conditions For The Formation Of Mesomorphous Coacervates., Stanley H. Jury 1916-1983

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

An analysis of the literature shows the close analogy between liquid crystalline phases in solution (fluids separating from main portion of solution and having some of the directional properties of crystals) and unipolar coacervates (solvated micelles of like charge separating as a distinct colloidal phase). A theory is here advanced that liquid crystalline phases in solution are the direct result of a maximum in osmotic pressure which is predictable from the first approximate equation of the Debye-Huckel theory in the same manner as unipolar coacervates were predicted by I. Langmuir. Application of the theory to aqueous soaps, investigated by Vold …
