The Effect Of Addition Agents In Grinding Portland Cement Clinker, Eugene Farrell Hill Jan 1940

The Effect Of Addition Agents In Grinding Portland Cement Clinker, Eugene Farrell Hill

Masters Theses

"In the dry grinding of most materials in a ball mill or similar apparatus, a degree of fineness is eventually reached when a noticeable decrease in the efficiency of grinding occurs. The degree of fineness where this phenomenon occurs, as measured by the specific surface of the material being ground, varies greatly with different materials. The accompanying effect in all cases, however, is the formation of a coating upon the balls; this coating in the case of cement adheres tightly to the balls and increases in thickness as grinding progresses after the initial "coating' fineness has been reached. Usually an …

Sunset Over Lincoln, Gordon Clouser Oct 1939

Sunset Over Lincoln, Gordon Clouser

English Language and Literature ETDs

In writing this play, I have tried to avoid the emphasis usually placed upon Billy the Kid. Most of the books and articles on the Lincoln County War have dealt extensively ( and without too great a regard for the truth) with his exploits, and there seemed little to be gained in re-telling the story from the same old angle. It appeared to me that a far more promising field was the one offered by the Spanish-American element in Lincoln and the effect of the war upon them: hence the decision to make Ygenic Salazar my pivotal figure.


Attitude Toward English Culture In Irish Literature, Sister Rita Cascia Smith Oct 1939

Attitude Toward English Culture In Irish Literature, Sister Rita Cascia Smith

English Language and Literature ETDs

A consideration of the attitude toward English culture in Irish literature necessitates an understanding of the conflict of the two cultures: the conflict of the Anglo-Saxon race with an Irish race; the conflict of a Protestant culture with a Catholic culture. A critical appreciation of this conflict covers eight centuries with scarcely a suspension of twenty-four hours, may be gained by taking a dispassionate view of history of both countries; by realizing what both have achieved; and speculating intelligently on their future.

Balthasar Hubmaier, James Hardwood Barnett Iii Oct 1939

Balthasar Hubmaier, James Hardwood Barnett Iii

Honors Theses

Balthasar Hubmaier stands as one of the great unknowns of the Reformation. Only in the Baptist annals is he treated to any extent. Perhaps the reason lies in the fact that the Anabaptists were very much in the minority throughout the Reformation. They never had even a city which might be called Baptist, much less a nation. To be sure a great number of them lived at Waldshut for a while and then at Nikolsburg under the protection of some Moravian lords. But this happy state did not last long. Perchance, it is because of this that C.J.H. Hayes in …

Biblical Angelology And Resultant Problems, Robert Kamphoefner Sep 1939

Biblical Angelology And Resultant Problems, Robert Kamphoefner

Bachelor of Divinity

The Scriptural doctrine of the angels has caused much discussion in the theological world throughout the centuries. It occupied the minds and the efforts of the early Fathers of the Church and has continued to be a point of dogmatical discussion even today.

A Study Of Pupil Elimination In The Public High Schools Of San Juan County, New Mexico, Grace Barker Wilson Aug 1939

A Study Of Pupil Elimination In The Public High Schools Of San Juan County, New Mexico, Grace Barker Wilson

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

In view of the current interest in the elimination of pupils from the public schools, the question arises, can the schools justify themselves in seeking to hold the pupils longer. In a close search for some authoritative statements an overwhelming amount of theory was found, but almost nothing of really concrete import.


Comparative Study Of The New Mexican And Mexican Popular Songs, Fernando Sifuentes Aug 1939

Comparative Study Of The New Mexican And Mexican Popular Songs, Fernando Sifuentes

Spanish and Portuguese ETDs

For the purpose of this study which is to compare the current popular song in New Mexico and the popular song in Mexico, an historical background will be laid for both songs and then an attempt will be made to ascertain the New Mexico production and contribution to the repertoire of popular songs now considered as New Mexico.

To do this the origin and development of the Mexican and New Mexican songs will be traced, and there will follow a comparison of the two groups to find similarities or differences in theme, type and other important characteristics.


The History Of The Oklahoma High School Athletic Association, Everett L. Thomas Aug 1939

The History Of The Oklahoma High School Athletic Association, Everett L. Thomas

Health, Exercise, and Sports Sciences ETDs

The purpose of this study is to produce an accurate record of unique events in the formation and development of the Oklahoma High School Athletic Association, in order that some valuable generalizations from a consideration of those experiences may serve as a guide in present and future situations.

A History Of Cotton Culture Along The Middle Brazos River, Manford Eugene Jones Aug 1939

A History Of Cotton Culture Along The Middle Brazos River, Manford Eugene Jones

History ETDs

The purpose of this thesis is to give a comprehensive but not too detailed account of the history of cotton production in the Middle Brazos valley, in Texas. Very little printed source material could be found which dealt with this particular region. Most of the material, therefore, came from interviews with members of pioneer families whose ancestors were among the earliest settlers in this part of Texas.
