Compiled under the criteria: (1) statement of sources and faithfulness to them, (2) a true reflection of Indian cosmology, and (3) a written style that retains the spirit and poetry of the Indian's native manner of telling. Includes titles containing valuable introductory materials, bibliographies, motif indexes, and additional comparative notes,...
Density measurements of molten solutions of thallium
and tellurium have been made over the temperature range
220 to 650°C and the composition range 31 to 69 atomic
per cent thallium. The Archimedian method was employed
since it is readily adaptable to performing measurements
over wide ranges of temperature and composition...
Five experiments were conducted to study the activity of the
pituitary gland in sheep as influenced by estrogen administered alone
or in combination with progesterone. Particular emphasis was given
to the study of gonadotropic activity.
Mature wethers (experiments I, III, IV and V) or ewes (experiment
II) were utilized as...
The dc conductivity of single crystals of vanadium pentoxide
was measured in the three crystallographic directions. The temperature
range examined was -165°C to +25°C. The activation energy
of the conduction process was isotropic and found to be .56 ev. The
conductivity was anisotropic.
Measurements of the Hall effect were attempted...
A sequence of soils derived from tuffaceous rocks was sampled
on the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest and adjacent U. S. Plywood
land to determine some genetic and stability relationships. The
less than two micron size fraction from each sample was characterized
by x-ray diffraction with respect to crystalline clay...
The importance of automobile exhaust as a source of atmospheric pollutants has been recognized for several years. With the
control of stationary sources in geographic areas such as Los
Angeles County, the automobile has become the major uncontrolled
source of air pollution.
The three major pollutants emitted by automobiles are...
New syntheses for 2-bicyclo(3.3.1)nonanone and 7-bicyclo-(3.3.1)nonen-2-one were developed. The saturated ketone was prepared
from phenol and acrylonitrile via a novel intramolecular
S[subscript N]2 cyclization process. A Friedel-Crafts cyclization of 3-(3-cyclohexenyl)propanoyl chloride permitted synthesis of the unsaturated
ketone from 4-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde. The formation of
the bicyclo(3.3.1)nonane rather than a bicyclo(3.2.2)nonane skeleton...
This thesis is a study of the dress and accessories of the
Indians on the Pacific Northwest Coast at the time contact with white
man was made, and during the period following contact, until cultural
disintegration was complete.
Information was obtained from historic accounts by early
explorers, and books written...
