The purpose of this paper is to make a detailed study of vector spaces and a certain vector-like system.

Much controversy has surrounded recent American policy toward China. Books of various stripes--distortions, misrepresentations, emotional accounts, and purportedly scholarly studies--have dealt with the formulation of a China policy. Several of the objective studies have featured the role that politics played in reducing American freedom of action. The emphasis has been that, since American diplomatic strategy during the decade of the 1940's was a Democratic responsibility, Republican critics took political advantage of the China "tangle." As congressional criticism mounted, the framework within which the Truman Administration could evolve a policy was increasingly restricted. With the Communist victory in China and the subsequent Korean War, Democratic strategy had apparently backfired. The public became aroused, and policy makers have since had difficulty adjusting to realities.

The main purpose of this study is to present an organized summary of some of the outstanding contemporary psychoanalytic theories of personality which have evolved during the past fifty or sixty years and to identify the similarities and convergences of these theoretical positions.

It shall be the purpose of this study to continue this delineation of the dynamics of anxiety. An attempt shall be made to study the nature of anxiety, especially in elementary school children, as it relates to three other factors: namely, intelligence, self-concept and ordinal birth position.

Most of Domenico Scarlatti's harmonic progressions are quite orthodox when considered abstractly or free of their positioning in the score. The harmonic movement is given interest by subtle alterations in time; for example, (1) simultaneous upper and lower voices of different lengths, when repeated several times, change their relationship with each other; (2) one voice may be simply delayed so that it lags behind the other voice, thus combining to produce irregular harmonic sound on many succeeding beats; (3) the combination of two or more chords appearing on one beat is similar to number (2) but does not necessarily occur more than once.

This thesis describes the events leading up to the capture of Atlanta by the Union army during the Civil War.

The first chapter outlines the history of percussion instruments used by Béla Bartók, The second chapter deals with the use of percussion by various composers from Bach's time up to the period of Bartók. Chapter three outlines how Bartók uses percussion instruments.

Born April 2, 1873, on the estate of Oneg in the province of Novgorod, Russia, Sergei Vassilyvitch Rachmaninoff was the fifth of the six children of Vassili and Lyoubov Boutakova Rachmaninoff. Rachmaninoff's aristocratic descent was traced to the Hospodars Dragosh, rulers of the realm of Molday from the fourteenth to the sixteenth century. One of the daughters from this family had married a son of the Grand Duke Ivan III of Moscow. The son's nephew was named Rachmanin, and from this source the family name originated.1 Rachmaninoff's mother was the daughter of a general, head of Araktcheyev Military College in Novgorod and the owner of a number of estates in the district. It was with a dowry of five of these estates that Lyoubov Boutakova married Vassili Rachmaninoff, and on one of these estates, Oneg, the couple settled down to married life.

The purpose of this thesis is to present English opinion of Robert Browning, contemporary with him, from the anonymous publication in 1833 of his first poem, Pauline, through the appearance in 1868-69 of what is agreed to be his masterpiece, The Ring and the Book. This study will consider the acceptance of each of Browning's publications, in chronological order of their appearance.

Carrier recombination and annealing of radioinduced recombination centers were investigated for both n- and ptype Ge. The experimental results are explained by a model in which recombination occurs at 0.36 ev above the valence band in gamma -irradiated, n-type Ge; the position of this level is shifted slightly downward for neutron-irradiated Ge. Trapping levels occur in As-doped Ge (at 0.17 ev above the valence band) which are not present in Sb-doped Ge. For p-type Ge, an energy level present in unirradiated Ge acts as a trapping center. A value for the electron capture cross section of n-type Ge is derived: 7 x 10/ sup -//sup 1//sup 9/ cm/sup 2/. The annealing properties of Sb- and As-doped Ge are very different. A model for the annealing results is given in which irradiation produces three major types of defects: interstitials, vacancies, and vacancy-interstitial pairs. The properties of each defect type are described. Association of vacancies with doping atoms is discussed. (D.L.C.)

With the exception of To Have and Have Not, the novels of Ernest Hemingway are set outside the United States; all, however, contain American characters. These Americans might be divided into three categories: American tourists; Americans who live abroad, but either do not like it or are not completely adjusted to it; the Hemingway heroes, characteristically American expatriates who are completely adjusted to and accepted in their alien environments. Toward the tourists, he maintains an attitude of contempt; toward the middle group, his attitude varies from disgust to sympathy; the heroes are, in various guises, Hemingway the expatriate, himself.

It has been the purpose of this study to look closely at the history of Cherokee relations with the European powers and ascertain the reasons for the Indians' rarely severed loyalty to the British crown. The writer has attempted to determine the causes for ineffective Cherokee resistance to the westward movement of American settlers and absence of offensive action during the Revolution.

This study was undertaken in the belief that students of psychology possess a significantly greater degree of empathic ability than do students of other college majors. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is any significant difference in empathic ability between psychology students and business students as a group.

The problem of this study was to compare the attitudes toward youth of students enrolled in two selected programs of student teaching at North Texas State College.

This paper is the result of a study of triangular matrices with particular emphasis on those which are convergence preserving transformations.

In an attempt to increase the efficiency, a proton recoil neutron spectrometer was built in which the proton detection crystal is in the shape of the surface formed by the rotation of the cos/sup 3/ THETA curve about the THETA = 0 axis where THETA is the angle between the direction of travel of the incident neutron and the direction of travel of the recoil proton. Such a construction makes the detector crystal conform to the range envelope of the protons recoiling from a neutron beam of sufficiently high energy into a gas in which the proton range is proportional to the 3/2 power of the proton energy. Sixteen pieces of thallium-activated cesium iodide were assembled as a mosaic arranged in the cos/sup 3/ THETA shape so that the maximum THETA was 30 deg . Calculations show that 25% of the protons recoil within 30 deg . The Po-Be snd Po-B spectra were measured with the instrument using xenon in the chamber. The resolution of the spectra obtained was low due to nonuniform pulse height response of the CsI crystal sections and excessive gamma-ray response even though sn anthracene proton radiator was used in a coincidence scheme designed to minimize …

The purpose of this experiment was to make positive assignment of the Cs133 energy levels excited by the inelastic scattering of neutrons.

"The purpose of this thesis is to examine the age structure of the population of Texas as it existed in 1960, and insofar as possible to trace important changes and trends in the older group from 1900 to 1960. The qualification derives from the fact that at this time not all of the data from the 1960 census are available, and hence many trends can be described only through 1950. Where appropriate, the structure and trends characteristic of the total population will be described, usually for comparative purposes."-- leaf 1.

Introduction: Recently a new type of charged particle detector, the so-called spark chamber, has been developed. The detector has certain advantages in high energy physics over bubble chambers aside from its much lower cost.

This paper is concerned with the design, testing and performance of a coincidence system, the proposed North Texas State College accelerator.

The problem of this study was to develop and validate a sound plan of reorganization of the public school districts in Texas. It may best be stated if considered as two subproblems: (l) to develop and validate criteria for reorganization of public school districts in the light of sound guiding principles; and (2) to devise a plan for school district reorganization In Texas in the light of the criteria established.
