Applications Of Character Evidence In Civil And Criminal Cases, Gerald Chargin

Student Theses

The various rules of evidence which permit or exclude the
introduction of one's character or reputation, as possessing
probative value are all based upon a policy of the law, the
aim of which is to safeguard the courts against the risks of
erroneous verdicts.  This policy assumes that truth in the long
run will best be attained by the exclusion of certain kinds
of evidence or if allowable, upon certain conditions imposed,
in order to guide the deliberations of the judge or juries to
just verdicts.

Beneficiation Of Manganese Ores, Michael V. Healey

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this investigation is to study the means of beneficiating domestic manganese ores in order that a marketable product may be made. Within the limits of the paper the term "Manganese ores" is applied to those ores mined primarily for their manganese content, to the exclusion of manganiferous iron and silver ores"--Object, page 1.

A Study Of Ball Mills, Robert Lee Kidd

Masters Theses

"The study of the ball mill is very complicated, due to the varying conditions existing in the mill. Some of these conditions are: Size of grinding media, size of feed, moisture content, and speed with its effect on the paths of the grinding media. A brief history of fine grinding will first be outlines, after which some of the theories of ball milling will be stated. Then the paths of the grinding media will be given some attention, and a new point of view about the trajectory will be brought out"--Introduction, page 2.

The Change In The Order Of Catalytic Action Of Lithium Chloride, Sodium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, And Calcium Chloride In The Ketonic Splitting Of Ethyl Acetoacetate, Richard Dwight Duff

Masters Theses

"The catalytic action of neutral salts on many reactions has been investigated under various conditions, and a large number of explanations have been put forward. In this work the catalytic action of normal solutions of lithium chloride, sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, and calcium chloride in the presence of .1 N. hydrochloric acid on the ketonic splitting of ethyl acetoacetate has been investigated at several temperatures between 80⁰C. and 95⁰C. An attempt has been made to explain the results obtained"--Introduction, page 1.

Reaction Of Metallic Iron And Copper Sulphate In The Flotation Of Sphalerite, Charles Wilson Ambler

Masters Theses

"Copper sulphate is a common flotation reagent for blende ores. Metallic iron is also present in the mill circuit and a reaction between the iron and the salt would be in accord with well known chemistry. The abundance of metallic iron in a flotation feed may be noted by the examination of any feed. It originates, first of all, in the mine, then the coarse crushing machines contribute their share, and finally the fine grinding medium is a large contributor. If the grinding is with cast iron balls in amount of metallics is greater than when steel is used. In …

The Concept Of Social Determinism As A Motivating Influence In Some Modern Tragedy, Arthur Lenox Bradford

Masters Theses

"The term, "social determinism", is a rather unfortunate designation for the absolute conditioning of human character by the aggregate of biologic and social influences...The central idea of this positivistic interpretation is that man, along with all other organic things, is the product of hereditary accidence and environmental contacts, that his psychic and physical constitutions (if there be such differentiation) are fashioned to the minutest detail by circumstance, and that his thoughts and the chemic impulses of his nature appear precisely according to his character which he has no hand in making"--Introduction, page 2-3.

A Study Of The Determination Of Fluorine And Other Constituents In Fluorspar, Robert Knowlton Grantham

Masters Theses

"A method for the determination of certain constituents in fluorspar has been studied. Fluorspar can be complete decomposed by fuming with perchloric acid. Agitation and boiling is essential to a rapid and quantitative decomposition. Lead, ferric oxide, titanium oxide, aluminum oxide and total calcium have been quantitatively determined in the solution obtained by the perchloric acid method of decomposition. Silica cannot be determined quantitatively by the use of perchloric acid alone. Preferential solution of calcium carbonate by means of very dilute perchloric acid cannot be used as a method for determining calcium in carbonates in the presence of calcium fluoride"--Summary, …

The Spleen Considered With Special Reference To It's Structure And Function, Peter B. Northouse

Bachelors’ Theses

This essay on the structure and function of the spleen is accompanied with a lengthy bibliography. The intention was to bring the completed bibliography up to date.

It represents all the, work that had been done for twenty-five years, from 1879 until 1905, in reference to the spleen.

The references in the main are from the Index Medicus. Complimentary references are from the Library of the Surgeon-General, The Quarterly Cumulative Index, and the current literature.

The bibliography brings out the point …

Standards Of Criticism For The American Novel, Marie Dwyer

Bachelors’ Theses

This thesis has been worked out so that I shall have some criteria for judging novels. I have ventured to write about modern novelists about whom critics are not agreed; my interest is not so much in that they said of certain authors as it is in determining why they accept some and reject others, and what they use as their basis of judging.

The technique of the novel, and its approach to great art was developed in order to gain a feeling for the novel apart from any country or section.

If undue emphasis has been placed upon the …
