A History Of The Illinois High School Athletic Association And Its Relationship To The Public High School, Wilbur N. Allen

Graduate Thesis Collection

The stimulation of this study lies in the fact that no written history of the Illinois High School Athletic Association is now in existence. The present executive officers of the Illinois High School Athletic Association felt there was a definite need for such a record.

The Development Of Stage Lighting And Its Application To A Problem In Scenic Design Entailing The Use Of A Unit Set For The Staging Of Six Plays Comprising A Cross Section Of English Drama, Anthony Reid

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Eliminating any consideration of setting, the story of the evolution of lighting is an absorbing commentary upon the history of the theatre and necessary to the full integration of its use as an instrument in the modern theatre. An understanding of the history of the development of stage lighting is as necessary a foundation to the creative and imaginative use of light in the theatre as the foundation of a building is necessary to the support of a tower. History probides the signpost showing the directions to be taken in experimentation and a standard for evaluation of such experimentation. The …

The First Half-Century Of The College Of The Pacific, Robert Burns

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

It is significant that the history of California’s oldest incorporated college has never been written in detail. A pamphlet and several lengthy newspaper and magazine articles have, to this time, sufficed. It therefore became my duty in writing this thesis to amass a quantity of material from the original sources.

The thesis represents the first half of a piece of work which ultimately, it is hoped, will portray a century of development by the College. It is expected that the complete work will be released shortly before the Centennial Celebration.

Religion In The Works Of Heinrich Heine, Ellen Frances Deruchie

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The life of Heinrich Heine presents many contradictions. He was a militant Hebrew who never held to the tenets of the Jewish faith, a Christian who admired Jesus, but despised the dogmas of Christianity, a German who loved his country with all his heart but became a voluntary expatriate. In addition, he was a poet who could rise to the very heights or lyricism, but then offend his readers with an outburst of mockery or blasphemy. With a mind so tormented, and a character so complex, it is no wonder that his writings present so many conflicting views. Only one …

A Practical Approach To The Study Of Sound For Musicians, Robert Lyle Beardsley

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This account of the beginning of music might equally well be applied to man's discovery of sounds produced by the stretched string on his hunting-bow, or skins stretched across wooden frames. Pure fancy though it may be, the account serves to illustrate the dependence of music on the universal principles of science. Sound, the medium of expression, the vehicle, of music, is purely physical phenomenon. All aspects of its production, its transmission, and its ultimate reception are based invariable on physical laws. All musical instruments operate under these laws, as do the tones and combinations of tones which the instruments …

An Epic Of Water And Power : A History Of The Modesto Irrigation District, Robert Malcomb Graham

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The Modesto Irrigation District is located on the eastern side of the Great Valley about half way from North to South. The Great Valley is really two distinct river valleys further divided by lesser stream valleys. The Sacramento River Valley is about 500 miles long and forms the northern half; and the San Joaquin Valley is about 350 miles long and forms the southern half. For many practical purposes local residents of this great Valley call it the Sac-Joaquin Valley. There are no hills or mountains to separate these valleys so we may consider them as one.

The Sac-Joaquin Valley …

The Role Of Cooperatives In Chinese Economic Reconstruction Since 1928, Alma Schocke

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The study of Chinese economic and social problems requires that certain fundamental Chinese conditions be kept constantly in mind by the Western student, lest he attempt to analyze from the contemporary economic and social viewpoints of his own country. Accomplishments and plans must both be considered in relation to what has gone before and what is within the realm of possibility under given conditions, rather than by comparison with accomplishments and plans in other countries where the basic situation is entirely different.

The object of this paper is to place cooperatives in relation to the to the reconstruction as a …

A Study Of Hiram W. Johnson's Public Speaking Technique And Of His Speech Composition : As Manifested In Five Of His Speeches On United States Foreign Policy, Carl W. Fuller

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

In the third and fourth decades of the twentieth century Hiram W. Johnson was one of themost important men in Ameican public life. He attained his eminence through the power of the spoken wrod; as a master wielder of that power he is deserving subject for a study to which this thesis claim to be only the plodding and inept introduction.

This thesis does not pretend to be an exhaustive study of Johnson's methods for three reason: 1. Its analysis of Johnson's speech composition is restricted to the third of the developmental stages listed above; 2. speeches selected for analyisis …
