The external and internal morphology are considered and important morphological characters are found which relate Macrovelis to the family Mesoveliidae. Both macropterous and Brachypterous forms occur throughout the western half of the United States. The adults and nymphs are restricted to the margins of springs and streams during the reproductive...
Since many 1, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydropyrimidines have become available
and commercially useful in recent years, a study of the chemistry
of certain of these compounds has been undertaken.
2-Hydroxy- and 2-mercapto-1, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydropyrimidine
have been synthesized by the condensation of urea and thiourea, respectively,
with 1, 3-propanediamine, with yields...
A study was undertaken in the Marys Peak watershed with the
following objectives. First, a classification of the major plant communities
was carried out. Second, some of the ecological features
of Acer circinatum that account for its distribution within these
communities were determined. The following plant communities
are described:
Corylus...
The purpose of this research was to determine if significant
differences existed in college performance and in selected areas of
attitude and opinion between male upperclassmen residing in fraternities
and non-fraternity male upperclassmen living in residence
halls.
Two samples consisting of (a) 86 upperclassmen from the residence
halls and (b)...
This investigation has as its purpose: (1) to identify present
student personnel practices in evening community college programs,
(2) to identify student personnel practices considered "desirable" or
"undesirable" in evening community college programs, and (3) to
develop student personnel service guidelines for an evening community
college program.
Securing and Treating...
Combinations of cohesive and cohesionless soils are often encountered
when evaluating the engineering properties of soils. The
stress-volume characteristics of the mixed soil are found to vary according
to the proportion of each component. If the cohesive soil
composes more than a certain fraction of the material, the magnitude
of...
The purpose of this study was to determine the possible problem areas in families with a diet-treated phenylketonuric child. Phenylketonuria is an inborn error of metabolism, which in the past caused mental retardation as well as behavioral disturbances. Initially the discovery of diet therapy eliminated the behavioral disturbances, but not...
This investigation was undertaken to characterize and evaluate
the forage production and utilization of the successional vegetation
of the mixed conifer forest.
Field studies were carried out during the summers of 1962
through 1964 at the Eastern Oregon Experiment Station Hall Ranch
which is located 12 miles southeast of Union,...
The public health and economic significance of rapid acid production
by lactic streptococci in controlled dairy fermentations is well
known. However, the fast acid-producing characteristic of these organisms
is not stable, and cultures of fast organisms have been shown
to contain slow cells. These studies were carried out to characterize...
