Molecular Organic Compounds Of Ortho And Para Aminobenzoic Acids, Weldon E. Cate

Masters Theses

The nature of the linkage between the components of molecular organic compounds is not clearly understood, although the existence of this type of compound has been known for many years. Since efforts to explain the structure of molecular compounds by the different theories of valence have met with only partial success, a series of investigations is being carried out in the Chemistry Laboratories of the University of Tennessee in an effort to formulate a theory by which the structure and properties of this interesting but perplexing type of compound may be explained.

The object of this investigation of the molecular …

A Comparative Study Of The Teachers Of Sevier County, Tennessee, With The Teachers Of Dickson, Hickman, Morgan And White Counties, Tennessee, Okla R. Sarten

Masters Theses

The primary purpose of this thesis is to make a comparative study of the status of the teachers of Sevier County with the teachers of Dickson, Hickman, Morgan and White Counties, the area, population, amount of taxable property, and number of teachers being approximately the same, in order to ascertain whether or not Sevier County is keeping pace with comparable counties in the character of teachers employed.

The development of children will, in very larger measure, depend upon the character of their teachers. Therefore, it is exceedingly important that frequent inventories be taken of the teaching corps in order to …

Survey Of Intestinal Parasites At The Knox County Industrial School, Mary Lance Vance

Masters Theses

Summary: A study of the whole school accommodating two hundred twenty-seven children, one hundred and five girls and one hundred and twenty-two boys, shows that 31.6 per cent of the children harbor no parasite, 47.7 per cent are parasitized by E. coli, I. butschlii, E. nana, C. mesnilli or G. lamblia, which are considered as symbiots. Therefore, a total of 52.3 per cent harbor pathogenic organisms. Ascaris infection occurs in the largest number, 24.2 per cent, then E. histolytica, 15.5 per cent, H. nana, 11.0 per cent, Necator, 7.5 per cent, Whipworm 5.0 per cent.
