The Wheat Growers Economic Conference was called in order to formulate a program for agriculture in the Columbia River Basin. Many ideas have been advanced by many people trying to help and stabilize agricultural conditions there. These ideas have varied widely, some being directly opposed to others. The proposals and...

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the formal
preparation currently required and desired for teachers of lower-division collegiate courses in public community colleges in the western
United States and to make recommendations for the preparation of
such teachers in Oregon. The identification of the functions of institutions...
Purpose
This study compared existing Oregon elementary school physical
education facilities and equipment with those facilities and equipment
items perceived to be essential for a quality physical education program
by nationally selected physical education specialists.
Procedures
A survey form was mailed to 110 national educators proposed by
state directors of...
In this thesis anomalous downcore shallowing of paleomagnetic
inclinations is interpreted to be caused by sediment compaction. Thus,
compaction-induced inclination shallowing may influence tectonic
reconstructions that are based on inclinations from deep-sea sediment
cores.
Progressive downcore shallowing of the remanent inclination was
observed in a 120-m section of Plio- Pleistocene...
Writing groups are used regularly in the academic
arena, but they are also used in the non-academic
community. This paper is an exploration of the use of nonacademic writing groups in Salem, Oregon. In Chapter 2 I discuss the theory behind writing groups--what it is about
writing and responding that...
Although the adverse auditory effects of noise have been the focus of
occupational health research for decades, little is known about the nonauditory health
effects that result from noise exposure. The focus of this research was the
nonauditory health effects of exposure to commercial aircraft noise (CAN)
overflights. It was...
Magnetic and gravity modelling was completed along two E-W transects offshore central Oregon. These models indicate that the backstop-forming western edge of the Siletz terrane has a seaward dip of approximately 40° to 49° at 44°48'N, shallowing to ~28° at 44°1 1 'N. This is a well-determined result, given available...
