Age of Wood from Wisconsin Terminal Moraine Near Adelphi, Ross County, Ohio
(1965-05) Forsyth, Jane L.
The Botanic Journal Club of the Ohio State University
(1965-05) Waller, Adolph E.
small but important group of early (1899) students of biology formed a club called the Ohio Botanic Journal Club. Some of these persons became well known in later years. Their early work and aspirations are noted in this paper
The Extraction of Hemagglutinin from Strains of Hemophilus Aegyptius
(1965-05) Rheins, Melvin S.; Mann, Jerry M.; Clements, James F.
serologically active substance was extracted from cells of Hemophilus aegyptius with dilute NAOH. This substance directly hemagglutinated human erythrocytes. The activity of this material was demonstrated at a near neutral pH and was precipitated at acid pH. Preliminary biochemical determination showed this serologically active material to be predominately polysaccharide

A Marine Biology Laboratory Facility and Course of Instruction at an Inland University
(1965-05) Groat, Cynthia S.; Toth, Steven E.
The development of an easily maintained marine biological facility, with artificial sea water and adequate filtration systems, has made possible a course of instruction in marine biology at an inland university. The laboratory facility and the instructional program are described in detail so that individuals at other institutions can adapt desirable elements to instructional and research use.

The Effect of Water Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen Content on the Rate of Gill Movement of the Hellgrammite Corydalus Cornutus
(1965-05) Fisk, Frank W.; Carey, Walter E.
The rate of gill movement of the Hellgrammite Corydalus cornutus as a function of water temperature and dissolved oxygen content has been measured. The specimens were introduced into open, water-filled vessels subsequent to partial removal of dissolved oxygen from the water. Measurements of gill-movement rate were made with a hand tally counter and electric timer, while dissolved oxygen content determinations were accomplished by the Winkler technique. Gill movements increased 0.026±0.018 beats per second with each parts per million decrease in dissolved oxygen content. Gill movements increased 0.188±0.081 beats per second with each degree Centigrade increase in temperature. This latter value is consistent with van't Hoff's rule. Observations of the specimens showed that there was a strict sequence to gill movement and that, under certain conditions, bubbles formed at the presumably inoperative spiracles. Dissections were performed to investigate the cause of this bubble formation and gas was found to fill the major portion of the closed tracheal system.
Effects of Capture and Caging on Thyroid Activity of House Sparrows (Passer Domesticus)
(1965-05) Brockway, Barbara F.
The effects of length of caging and reserpine administration on the in vivo recording of uptake and retention of idoine-131 by the thyroid glands of House Sparrows (Passer domesticus) were investigated. The uptake of iodine-131 was lower in birds caged for shorter periods (2 and 10 days) as compared to those caged for longer periods (90 and 100 days) prior to testing. The release of radioiodine from the thyroid area as measured by logarithmically plotted "release slopes" seems depressed in birds held only 2 days prior to testing. Release in birds held for 10 days did not differ appreciably from that in birds held 90 days prior to testing. Uptake and retention of iodine-131 did not differ significantly between birds given reserpine and those given a placebo, either in a group of birds tested 2 days or one tested 90 days after capture.

The Caprifoliaceae of Ohio
(1965-05) Hauser, Edward J. P.
This paper presents a current account of the range and distribution of Ohio's species of the Caprifoliaceae, of which the following genera are represented in this study: Diervilla, Linnaea, Lonicera, Sambucus, Symphoricarpos, Triosteum, and Viburnum. Lonicera, represented by twelve species, and Viburnum, represented by eleven species, are the largest genera. Of the thirty-two species considered in this study, eight are rare, ten are infrequent, five are frequent, and nine are common in their occurrence for the state. Keys for the identification of these species, cytological and ecological data, citation of significant specimens, and other useful data are also presented. Distribution maps are provided for all species.

Contributions of Frederic Ward Putnam to Ohio Archaeology
(1965-05) Dexter, Ralph W.
Frederick Ward Putnam (1839-1915) carried out and directed archaeological research in Ohio primarily between 1880-1895 as part of the program of the Peabody Museum of American Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University. He was especially concerned with the mounds of Little Miami Valley, Scioto Valley, Fort Ancient, Fort Hill, and the Great Serpent Mound. He developed the standard methods of mound exploration, and took steps to preserve archaeological sites. He published many reports, and gave frequent lectures on his studies in Ohio. He concluded the mound builders originated in Mexico.
A Comparison of the Spider Fauna of Four Different Plant Communities Found in Neotoma, a Small Valley in South Central Ohio
(1965-05) Cannon, Stephanie Swartzel
The aerial spider fauna of the Mixed Mesophytic forest community was more abundant and more varied than those of the Mixed Oak and Chestnut Oak forest communities studied although all were similar in composition. A study of the leaf litter showed the spider populations to be similar in numbers and species present in all three forest communities. The aerial fauna of the Old Field community studied was as abundant, but less varied than the Mixed Mesophytic. The Old Field community fauna was distinct from that of the forest communities.
