Some Effects Of Inorganic Fluoride On Plants, Animals, And Man, Delbert A. Greenwood

Faculty Honor Lectures

~~~ in the compounds of fluorine may be traced to one or more of the following factors: ( 1) the consumption of a drinking water containing one part per million of fluorine as a soluble flouride during the period of calcification and eruption of the teeth causes a reduction in the incidence of tooth decay; however, an intake of drinking water containing more than two parts per million of fluorine causes dental fluorosis of varying degrees in man and certain animals; (2) a continuous intake of excessive amounts of fluorine as mineral supplement, in contaminated forage, or the grazing of …

Obligations Of Higher Education To The Social Order, Ernest A. Jacobsen

Faculty Honor Lectures

Search for truth is not limited to the discovery of facts. If wisdom is to result from such discovery, there must be parallel study in the realm of values. Lack of balance in these two aspects of research has tended to result in an enormous mass of information and in a marvelous productive power in our society with a lack of worthy ends toward which to direct and apply them. Wisdom is the product of information and values skillfully integrated.

When values are involved the principal data become the ideas and ideals of man. These must be extensively gathered, classified, …

Seismic Measurements In Ocean Basins, Maurice Ewing, Frank Press

Journal of Marine Research

This paper will include a discussion of seismic effects and measurements in ocean basins as determined from natural earthquakes and from explosions. Earthquake seismology has been related to problems of the oceans since its beginning. In fact, establishment of the international network of seismograph stations, suggested by John Milne in 1897, was due in large part to the correlation of submarine cable breaks with oceanic earthquakes. Much of the great destruction of life and property caused by earthquakes at the borders of oceans results from the great sea waves or tsunamis occasionally generated by them. Recently it has become possible …

Geology Of The Preston Hollow Quadrangle (Dallas, Collin, And Denton Counties, Texas), George. W. B. Hall Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Bedrock in the Preston Hollow Quadrangle consists of the upper Eagle Ford shale and the middle marl and lower chalk members of the Austin formation. The area is situated upon a gentle homocline with the beds dipping 50 to 60 feet per mile to the southeast. The Eagle Ford is principally shale with interbedded thin layers of shaly limestone and sandy shale. The Austin formation is readily divisible into a lower chalk, which is a rather hard unit, and an overlying softer marly unit. There are, however, many hard chalky beds in the marl. Many thin layers of an argillaceous …

The Beginnings Of Settlement In Cache Valley, Joel Edward Ricks

Faculty Honor Lectures

In our picturesque valley, virtually surrounded by mountains, watered by beautiful streams, filled · with rich soil, and covered by willows, sagebrush, and plentiful grasses, inhabited by beaver and other wild animals, the trapper, the explorer, and the pioneer found the answer to their quest for beauty and the search for an abundant living.

Notes On The Salamander, Eurycea Longicauda Guttolineata, In Florida, Donald W. Tuttle

Field and Laboratory

But little work has been published on this subspecies. This study is based on a collection made with Richard E. Etheridge in the summer of 1949. While Carr (1940) lists Eurycea l. guttolineata as uncom­ mon in Florida, we were able to collect some 180 specimens in the northern part of the State. These are now deposited in our private collections, or in the Tulane University collection.

Papers Presented At The 1952 Meeting Of The Society Of Student Geologists, George Waverly Hall Jr.

Field and Laboratory

Early this year, graduate students in the Geology Department of Southern Methodist University, aware that there was no adequate student group which could advocate and instigate a desired type of extracurricular geologic program, set about to put such a program in motion. They formed a club to be known as The Society of Student Geologists. They sought to begin a positive program of geologic activity, and to form a true honorary organization to recognize outstanding undergraduates in geology.

The Teaching Of Science, Sherwin Maeser

Faculty Honor Lectures

Like to teach! Whether with the expectant, half-frightened freshman, the senior, worried about his preparation now that . he must get out and meet competition, or the graduate student interested in new discoveries, I like to work with all of them.

I have been teaching a long time now. As has always been the case when one generation is thinking of turning over its work to the next, I am glad to have the opportunity to talk about some of the things that I consider important in this job of teaching.

An Aftonian Plant Locality In Lee County, Iowa, L. R. Wilson

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

Organic remains in glacial drifts and interglacial deposits are relatively abundant in Iowa and serve as valuable aids for the resolution of certain Pleistocene problems. The existence of fossils in the glacial deposits was early recognized and became one of the criteria for the separation of drift sheets (McGee, 1878). In 1895 T. C. Chamberlain noted the presence of peat separating two tills in the Afton Junction-Thayer region of Union County, Iowa. The name Aftonian was applied in connection with these interglacial deposits and has become the established designation of the oldest recognized interglacial stage in North America.

Whitney Dam is located on the Brazos River (river mile 442.4) in Hill and Bosque counties, Texas, approximately 38 river miles upstream from Waco, McLennan County, Texas. The general location of the project is shown on plate 1. The site selected for development is located at river mile 442.4. Three other sites, located at river miles 471.0, 472.8, and 473.2 and designated Alternate Sites Numbered 3, 2, and 1, respectively, are described in this paper.

Mineralogy Of The Silver King Mine Of Park City, Utah, Pierce D. Parker

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

Except for the early work of Boutwell and Irving, little has been published on the geology of the Park City mining district. For this reason and because of the availability of a selected suite of ores from the Silver King mine of this area, this writer chose the mineralogy of the Silver King mine as a senior thesis for the de­partment of Geology of the Montana School of Mines.

The Desert Shall Blossom As The Rose, D. Wynne Thorne

Faculty Honor Lectures

IRRIGATION AGRICULTURE has not received attention commensurate with its significance in either ancient or modem times. Although most ancient civilizations depended on irrigation for their very existence, one can consult volume after volume of history only to find irrigation scarcely mentioned. To the agricultural specialist the great challenge and the strength and weakness of irrigation agriculture is not in constructing Boulder Dams nor in planning winding canals and syphons to carry water from the Columbia River to California. The critical point is on the farms where water is applied to the soil and crops are harvested. There the real battles …

Studies Of Antimony Occurrence With Special Relation To Its Effective Extraction, San Jose Antimony Mines, Wadley, San Luis Potosi, Mexico, J. C. Archibald Jr.

Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970

The mines at San Jose which are within the Wadley unit are the largest antimony mines in Mexico. These mines produce more than half of the antimony produced by the company from its mining operations. Since the time of the author's connection with the company, a number of changes have been made in planning of development work, handling of labor, methods of mine development, cost improvement, and other problems inherent in the successful guidance of an operation.
