The Vocascope - An Experimental Study In The Visual Measurement Of Pitch And Quality, John C. Crabbe

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The project herein described is an experimental attempt to con- struct visual aids for the study of voice. Its purposes are: (1) to ako possible the visual perception of pitch change on a vertical scale; (2) to isolate certain overtones of the fundamental frequency in the hope of deriving some assistance to the improvement of quality. The principle of operation is the psychological phenomenon of stroboscopy, the illusion of stationary, constant light, as a result of synchronized interrupted vision. The Vocascope is composed of four essential parts: (1) the scanning drugs, (2) the light source, (3) the amplifier, (4) the …

Pauline Evangelism, Samuel Emerick Jan 1940

Pauline Evangelism, Samuel Emerick

Graduate Thesis Collection

The objective of the writer of this thesis is to present a plain account of the work of Paul as an evangelist in the field of early Christianity. In his labors to spread the gospel, and in his endeavors to lead people to accept and obey that gospel, Paul was a devoted man. His devotion to this great cause, however, had not always been characteristic of Paul. He once lived in direct hostility to the cause for which he later endangered and finally surrendered his life. This change of mind and conduct will be better understood when we consider his …


The Tragic Light In Edwin Arlington Robinson, Margaret L. Dauner Jan 1940

The Tragic Light In Edwin Arlington Robinson, Margaret L. Dauner

Graduate Thesis Collection

Edwin Arlington Robinson is generally acknowledged to be particularly the "poet of failures". His poems deal preeminently with the problems of men and women who err through their various limitations, and who usually err tragically. Since this is true, it is necessary to survey briefly, and attempt to classify, the materials from which the analyses for this study will be drawn. Such a survey will follow immediately in a subsequent chapter.

Junior High School Music The Vital Link Between Required And Elective Music, Mary Z. Zenor Jan 1940

Junior High School Music The Vital Link Between Required And Elective Music, Mary Z. Zenor

Graduate Thesis Collection

The junior high school as such is a comparatively new part of the modern educational system.  As, with all new things, it began as an experiment; and as with all worthwhile things, innovations are constantly being tried out, rejected, or accepted.  Much has been said about the junior high as a link between the elementary grades and senior high school, as a period of orientation, as a time of physical as well as psychological change.


The Interpretation Of Holy Scripture By The Consensus Of The Church, V. G. Gilbert Jan 1940

The Interpretation Of Holy Scripture By The Consensus Of The Church, V. G. Gilbert

Graduate Thesis Collection

That the New Testament Scriptures stand alone as the source material of the Christian Way is very widely recognized. As to the final authority of this literature, however, there are two widely divergent schools, the Roman Catholic and the Protestant. The former places authority in the Church militant, while the latter clings to the maxim of Chillingworth, "The Bible is the religion of Protestants".


Some Aspects Of The National Land System As Seen In The Jeffersonville, Indiana, Land Office, Russell W. Curtis Jan 1940

Some Aspects Of The National Land System As Seen In The Jeffersonville, Indiana, Land Office, Russell W. Curtis

Graduate Thesis Collection

Land legislation has long been regarded by many historians as the "driest of historical deadwood." John Fiske has said, however, "if the subject is dull in itself it is closely related to some of the most interesting phases of our history. Without some knowledge of the land system, a study of the westward movement would be only superficial."

To ascertain whether or not there has been a shift in emphasis, the following investigation was undertaken.
