- Description: Rhenosterbos, Elytropappus rhinocerotis (L.f.) Less belongs to a purely South African section ot the Compositae. It is restricted to an area of low rainfall which is evenly distributed over the year. The plant is a specialised xerophyte with minute leaves and white pubescent twiglets. Older stems become woody and dry and bear no leaves. The shrubs have a life span of about eight years; the plants are most succulent and luxurious during the third and fourth year, after which they tend to become woody and scraggly. For this investigation insect material was obtained by sweep-net collection and field observation. In the Grahamatown district 78 collections were made during the period March - November 1953, with data thus obtained being embodied in this work. In addition to this, collections were made in the Cradock-Hofmeyer, Uitenhage, Riversdale, Bot River, Swellendam and Stellenbosch districts. Twenty species of insects have been shown definitely to feed on the plant and there are another 13 which probably feed on it. Of the 20 species attached to the plant, 12 are sucking forms belonging to the Orders Homoptera and Hemipters. They include six Coccids, two Jassids a Cercopid, two Mirids and a Pentstomid. The Coleoptera are represented by one or perhaps two species which feed on the plant. The Lepidoptera are represented by two important species of moth, a Geometrid and a Pyralid. Four species of gall forming Diptera are associated with the plant. There are two species of Trypetidae which are responsible for piriform swellings of growth points and are distributed evenly throughout the bush. There are also two Cecidomyidae one of which develops in the growth points of the shoots and is responsible tor a minute tubular gall. The other develops in a fusiform stem gall. This latter gall has been shown to be more common on smaller bushes than on larger ones, implying that the adult female may show certain selective powers during oviposition. The size of the insect population is held in check by spiders mantids and other general predators. There are several Coccinellids which prey on the scale insects. Rhenosterbos supports a small, well regulated community of insects. The balance between plant and animal is very dellcate because of the high degree of specialisation of the plant. On occasions this balance has been known to break down, and the insects present in abundance have swamped and killed large patches of the plant.

- Description: Several ant species may be associated with the same honeydew producing insect in citrus orchards. Recently antagonism and competition between two such ants were reported from Letaba. This report stimulated the present study, the purpose of which is to ascertain which ant species are most numerous in citrus orchards ln the Eastern Cape Province; the reasons for these ants being able to occupy orchards; and, finally, their relationships. A survey of the Sundays River Valley and the Fish River Valley revealed that three species - Anoplolepis custodiens Smith, Anoplolepis steingroeveri Forel, and Pheidole megacephala Fabricius - were commonly found in citrus orchards in association with Soft Brown Scale insects. The territorial relationships of these ants were determined by plotting their distribution at intervals for over a year. It was found that this distribution could be correlated with seasonal climatic conditions, the effects of farming practices, brood rearing requirements and behavioural differences between the three species. The ant, A.steingroeveri, had not been previously studied, and since foraging is an integral part of territorial behaviour, some aspects of its biology, and more especially its foraging activity, were investigated to compare it with the known biology of the other two species. Observations on the foraging activity of A. steingroeveri were made at monthly lntervals for almost a year, and correlated with climatic conditions prevailing at the time. Some seasonal and dally variations in foraging behaviour could not be readily explained in terms of the effects of temperature and humidity on the ants. Other factors, includ1ng trophallactic stimulation and overcast skies, were found to influence ant activity. Owing to the apparent lack of information in the literature and possibility of periodic honeydew production by Soft Brown Scale insects controlling ant activity was investigated in the laboratory. The results of this study showed that it was not likely that honeydew excretion restricted the activity of the ants. Several investigators have also found that many interrelated climatic factors correlated with ant foraging behaviour, but have expressed dissatisfaction at not being able to reach the crux of the matter. To clarify the issue a constant temperature chamber was constructed in which a colony of Crematogaster ants was housed and the ants were subjected to a series of temperatures at different humidities, all other factors were eliminated or kept constant. The effects of these two factors on the thermokinetics and foraging activity of the ants were registered. This thesis contains several sections and at the end of each the results are discussed in the light of the available literature and comparisons are drawn between the species under investigation. The main results are given in the summary. After the summary two appendices are included. One is an attempt to compare the effect on ant size of the honeydew diet of orchard colonies with the proteinaceoue diet of veld ants. The other appendix is an experiment to control citrus ants with an insecticide.

- Description: It is a curious fact that, although the literature of the organ is a reasonably large one, no attempt has been made to study the history of the instrument in Britain in any detail. Hopkins and Rimbault covered a certain amount of ground up to 1800, but even they could not deal very extensively with the subject in a volume that was tracing the history of the organ not only in Britain, but throughout Europe, and not only its history but its construction also. For similar reasons Dr. Sumner? (name unclear), in his recent book, could paint little more than an outline picture. However, the British organ's development prior to 1800 was one that does not admit of very discursive treatment. Progress was lamentably slow in comparison with that of Continental organs; and consequently the nineteenth century dawned with British organ-building literally hundreds of years behind that of France, Germany, Belgium and Holland. Yet, a century later, the position was redeemed, and even before the present era opened, the products of British organ-builders were not merely equal to, but, in general superior to those of the Continent in tonal design, mechanism, in artistic finish, and in ordinary maintenance and preservation. The nineteenth century, then, must clearly be regarded as a remarkable, indeed glorious, period in British organ-building, in fact one is tempted to enquire, whether there exists, in the entire artistic and scientific history of any country a similar example of accelerated development; in which one country has made up three hundred years' leeway in one third of that time. This thesis therefore, sets out to examine and describe the events of the century, and the men who were responsible for those events, to trace the growth of the organ in its various departments, and as the instrument itself is only a means to an end, to say something about the way in which it was used, the music that was played on it, and the men who played and composed this music. The thesis is divided into two volumes, the first deals entirely with the history of the instrument and its builders during the nineteenth century, with an introduction briefly recounting the story from the Restoration up to the year 1800; and the second volume is concerned with the music and the musicians as well as the several detailed indexes which are so necessary if a work of this kind is to be of any value at all. A full bibliography is given in Volume Two, but supreme acknowledgement must be paid here to the quarterly periodical "The Organ" - still thriving after an active career that began in July 1921. Its scholarly articles range over the whole field of international organ-building and organ-history, and without its help this thesis would have been far less comprehensive in its scope and far lesss authorative in its source-material.

- Description: In Labeo umbratus only the first three anterior vertebrae undergo any modification. These vertebrae are not completely anchylosed with each other and are closely associated with the four Weberian ossicles. Movement is however restricted between these vertebrae since this is essential for the efficient functioning of the Weberian ossicles. The first vertebra is well developed the absence of a spinous process and neural arch in the first vertebra may perhaps be explained by the findings of some workers who derive the claustrum from the former and the scaphium from the latter. A small muscle has its origin on the claustrum and its insertion in the angle formed by the dorsal and medial processes of the scaphium. A second muscle originates in the pit-like excavation of the first vertebra and is inserted on the ventral process of the scaphium. The intercalarium possesses horizontal, articular and ascending processes; a portion of the horizontal process being imbedded in the interossicular ligament. In Labeo umbratus it is unlikely that the intercalarium represents (if it does so at all) the entire neural arch of the second vertebra. From a morphological point of view it seems likely that the intercalarium may function as a lever. A transversely situated ductus endolymphaticus joins the two sacculi to each other. The sagitta, in the region of the ductus endolymphaticus has a long, lateral "wing-like" process which projects into the cavity of the sacculus. The sacculus anilagena are innervated by the n. saccularis and the n. lagenaris respectively. The ductus endolymphaticus is prolonged posteriorly into a median unpaired sinus endolymphaticus. Although the only serious objection to Weber's theory is the fact that there could be no differential action of the two ears, the basic idea seems valid. Sagemehl's theory cannot be accepted. It seems likely that the Weberian ossicles are necessary structures for audition and to the hydrostatia function of the air-bladder.

The struggle for national independence in its international setting : its economic and political background and its manifestation in the Fourth Committee of the United Nations General Assembly
- Authors: Lumsden, Geoffrey S

- Description: The decade following the close of the Second World War has been dominated throughout by the clash of political power of the United States and the Soviet Union. Their wartime alliance has crumbled. New, antagonistic alliances have come into existence. The so-called 'EastWest' split, polar in its effect, has forced the admission that prospects of stable peace depend on how successfully bridges can be made to span the gulf. This over-riding and pervading reality has blinded us to the importance of another struggle, which is everywhere mounting in force and intensity and which history may well record as a dominant theme of the twentieth century -- the world-wide struggle for independence. In some cases it has produced revolution and violence: full-scale wars have been fought in its cause in Indonesia and Indo-China; military engagements have taken place in Kenya and Tunisia; Cypriots and British garrison forces have exchanged fire; Malayans have rioted; and 'incidents' too numerous to detail have been reported from a great variety of countries where political dependence exists. Intro., p. 1.

Dit sal vir die leser duidelik wees dat dieselfde metode van benadering wat ek hier op sekere aspekte van die woordeskat van van Wyk Louw se poësie toegepas het, ook op ander woordsoorte toegepas sou kan word, en ook op die werk van ander digters. As 'n mens die gegewens wat jy so verkry, histories sou beskou, sou jy 'n baie interessante kykie kry op die ontwikkeling van die woordeskat in die Afrikaanse poësie. ln die beste van een skripsie is so iets egter, soos duidelik sal blyk, nie moontlik nie. Later, voel ek, sou miskien met vrug op dié grondslag voortgebou kan word.

A preliminary study of adaptation and inhibition of reflex claw opening in the crab Potamon perlatus (Milne Edwards)

- Description: The only recorded experimental attempt to determine the functional, biological significance of peripheral inhibition in the Crustacea is that of Hoffmann (1914). From a series of experiments on Astacus fluviatilis L. involving transsection of the opener inhibitor and motor axons of the cheliped, he concluded that the opener inhibitor axon of the claw responded to prolonged or repeated sensory stimulation by transmitting inhibitory impulses to the opener muscle, the peripheral inhibition thus evoked causing adaptation of the reflex opening responses of the claw to the sensory stimulation. This suggests that there may be (1) a very high degree of peripheral control of (a) the reactions of the animal to external stimuli, and perhaps also to proprioceptive stimuli, and therefore (b) of the behaviour of the animal; and (2) a correspondingly high degree of independence of this behaviour from central nervous control. It is therefore of importance to discover whether, in fact, this conclusion is valid for Astacus and other Decapod Crustacea, and if so, then to what extent the adaptation is peripherally controlled. A preliminary attempt haa been made to repeat these experiments of Hoffmann, using Potamon perlatus (M.Edw.). Experiments in which mechanical sensory stimulation was used to evoke reflex claw opening indicated that this conclusion is not applicable to P.perlatus. The adaptation of the mechanical claw openining responses which occurred with repeated sensory stimulation was not affected by transsection of either the specific opener inhibitor axon or the common inhibitor axon of the claw. It was evidently mainly due to sensory adaptation when the sensory stimuli were heavy, and to centrally controlled adaptation when the sensory stimuli were light. The significance of these results is discussed. Other effects observed during the course of the work, of electrical "sensory" stimulation, and of cerebral ganglion elimination, are also described and discussed in relation to the present problem.
