George Edward Percy Careless: His Contributions To The Musical Culture Of Utah And The Significance Of His Life And Works, Howard Hoggan Putnam Jan 1957

George Edward Percy Careless: His Contributions To The Musical Culture Of Utah And The Significance Of His Life And Works, Howard Hoggan Putnam

Theses and Dissertations

Through study of the conditions of the past one is often able to appreciate the present a great deal more. Particularly does this seem true when one looks into the early musical activities in our State of Utah. Most people are aware of the great amount of musical activities existing at the present time in Utah, but many fail to stop and realize the background of work and effort applied to bring these musical experiences before the public. Many fail to realize the pioneering work done by individuals to advance music to its present degree of performance. Names such as …

A Historical Study Of 4-H Club Work In Texas, George L. Smith Jr. Aug 1956

A Historical Study Of 4-H Club Work In Texas, George L. Smith Jr.

All Theses

This study has been prepared as partial fulfillment for the degree of Master of Science in Agriculture. It is the result of an effort by the writer to present to future agricultural education and agriculture extension students of Prairie View Agricultural and Mechanical College a complete history of the 4-H Club beginning, and its development in Texas since that beginning. Heretofore, the writing on 4-H Club Work has been limited to the individual counties of Texas. In no sense does the writer imply complete originality in material, for much of it has been taken from references with proper acknowledgment being …


An Historical Study Of The Lower Colorado River Authority And Its Effect On The Farming Programs In Travis County, Texas, Morris James Crawford Aug 1956

An Historical Study Of The Lower Colorado River Authority And Its Effect On The Farming Programs In Travis County, Texas, Morris James Crawford

All Theses

The valley of the Colorado River has been one of the more important areas of Texas Agricultural Production for generations. But, like the lands of most of the state, waste of topsoil, erosion, poor water absorption and improper farming methods have resulted in thousands of acres being unproductive each year. The conservation and reclamation of the natural resources of the area are essential to the continued economic well-being of the area.

Generally the Authority's program has been set up with two goals in mind: first to induce the farmers to adopt soil conservation practices; and second, to improve the technological …

Comparative Legal Research, Some Remarks On "Looking Out Of The Cave", Hessel E. Yntema May 1956

Comparative Legal Research, Some Remarks On "Looking Out Of The Cave", Hessel E. Yntema

Michigan Law Review

Despite this risk and without limiting discussion of comparative legal research to a Platonic theory of knowledge-to which I for one would not accede-the text prompts first the inquiry, unavoidable in a constructive discussion of the matter, whether contemporary legal study in the United States is concerned with shadows in an intellectual cave-or in other words, whether it is true, as I was told years ago, partly perhaps in jest, by a late distinguished member of the Supreme Court, then Attorney General, when, encountering me on a visit to the Department of Justice, he kindly asked what I was looking …

University Of Richmond Bulletin: Catalog Of The T.C. Williams School Of Law For 1956-1957, University Of Richmond

Law School Catalogues

General Statement:

The Law School was established as a part of Richmond College in 1870. In 1890 the family of the late Mr. T. C. Williams, who had been a devoted and useful trustee, donated $25,000 as the nucleus of an endowment for the Law School. In recognition of this gift, the name of the School was changed to The T. C. Williams School of Law. At various times the School has received further generous gifts from members of the family of Mr. Williams. A substantial gift came through a bequest from Mr. T. C. Williams, Jr. who, like his …

Family Ii. Chamaesiphonaceae, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

Family Ii. Chamaesiphonaceae, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

In this family, the plants, originally unicellular, grow eventually into strata or cushions from which filaments of cells penetrate the substratum. The solitary cells are basically attached to the substratum by a sheath of gelatinous material; cell division proceeds, at right angles to the axis of the cell, in an unequal fashion: the apical daughter cell is as a rule much smaller than the basal daughter cell. The upper part of the sheath is burst open, and the small daughter cell passes out of the mother cell sheath or develops in silu within the open sheath.

History Of Classification, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

History Of Classification, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

If botanists prior to 1777 encountered species of coccoid Myxophyceae, they probably referred them to the Linnaean genera Byssus, Tremella, or Ulva. J. Lightfoot in his Flora Scotica (1777) named a conspicuous gelatinous alga from wet places on the Isle of Skye Ulva montana (Anacystis montana of this paper). K Sprengel in Flora Halensis, Mantissa (1807) described green globules floating in a lake near Halle as Coccochloris stagnina During the period of 1790-1850, numerous genera and species were published.


Revision Of The Coccoid Myxophyceae, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

Revision Of The Coccoid Myxophyceae, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

This study originated as an inquiry, some twenty years ago, into what names should be employed for species of coccoid Myxophyceae found in general collections of algae from various parts of the world. Gradually we accumulated and examined many thousands of specimens. Equally gradually it became apparent to us that only a carefully executed revision of the group, with sufficient attention paid to the morphological variation and life history of each species and with strict adherence to the stern discipline of the science of historical taxonomy, would produce a classification and a nomenclature which would satisfy our desire.

Preservation And Microscopical Techniques, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

Preservation And Microscopical Techniques, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

Permanent preservation of these algae is most adequately assured by drying. The dried specimens can be placed in paper packets, labeled, and stored in the herbarium. Since most of the species thrive best in subaerial or temporarily inundated habitats, they exist for much of the year in the dried condition in nature. Wet algae can be laid top-side up on paper and allowed to dry in the open air. Drying in a plant press excludes the air, so that autolyzation of the protoplasm takes place; drying with heat often destroys the cells by cooking. If possible, part of the substratum …


Family Iii: Clastidiaceae, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

Family Iii: Clastidiaceae, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

Plants of this family are elongate epiphytic unicells contained in thin gelatinous sheaths. The entire protoplast divides into a uniseriaer chain of rounded cells which often remain united by their membranes after the hydrolyzation of the sheath. The cells, upon separation from each other, elongate and secrete new gelatinous sheaths.

Nomina Excludenda, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

The following names have been described on the bases of material not included in the families treated above. Most of these names were originally described as members of the Chroococcaceae, Chamaesiphonaceae, or Clastidiaceae; or were transferred into those families at one time or another; or have been suspected as being members of those families. Where the original specimens have not been available for study, we have designated the original description as the temporary Type, to serve until specimens seen by the author can be found.

Forest Communities In Versailles State Park, Indiana, Forest Stearns Jan 1956

Forest Communities In Versailles State Park, Indiana, Forest Stearns

Butler University Botanical Studies

Continuity of observation over an extended period of time is a difficult but vital phase of the study of the natural vegetation of any area. Such continuity is difficult to obtain. The vegetation may be destroyed or the investigator may move before sufficient time has elapsed to permit any significant development. Dr. J. E. Potzger realized the difficulties inherent in a long-time study but he also considered such studies valuable. Hence in 1950 he and Mrs. Potzger published the results of their studies on several areas in Versailles State Park. These were planned as the ground work for a long-time …


Morphology, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

Morphology, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

The plant -- this term is employed here to indicate a single free cell or a group of cells joined together, usually in a gelatinous matrix. A specimen or single collection may contain many plants of one or few cells mixed with other algae; it may be a single entire globule, cushion, or stratum, or a part of one of these. In the Chroococcaceae and some species of Entophysalis, plants of the same species may be found in the form of strata, cushions, or globules (both microscopic and macroscopic), or as free unattached cells.

Family I. Chroococcaceae, Part 1, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily Jan 1956

Family I. Chroococcaceae, Part 1, Francis Drouet, William A. Daily

Butler University Botanical Studies

Most of the species of Chroococcaceae are capable of developing in various ways: as microscopic or macroscopic globular aquatic plants with homogeneous or lamellose matrices; as aquatic, subaerial, or aetial strata or cushions; or as free single cells where the sheath material has completely hydrolyzed. The cells, their methods of division and regeneration, and the arrangement of the cells in the plant are the chief means of distinguishing genera and species. Division of a cell into two equal daughter-cells is characteristic of the family.
