“The Bricks” at Colby (Waterville) College: The Origins of a Lost Campus

Popularly known as “The Bricks,” the former three-building row at Colby (Waterville) College was one of New England\u27s most notable nineteenth-century higher educational building groups. Located at the center of Colby\u27s first campus (abandoned in the 1950s), “The Bricks” consisted of a central main building, Recitation (Champlin) Hall (1836-1837), and two nearly identical, multi-purpose flanking structures, South (1821) and North (1822) colleges. The Colby row incorporated and integrated all components, formal as well as informal, of the college educational experience, thereby reflecting the predominant American higher educational philosophy of the pre-Civil War era. Bryant F. Tolles, Jr. is Professor of History and Art History and Director of the Museum Studies Program at the University of Delaware. He is the author of Summer Cottages in the White Mountains (2000), The Grand Resort Hotels of the White Mountains (1998), New Hampshire Architecture (1979), and several articles on New England college architecture and campus planning

EPR investigation of irradiated strontium and zinc acetate single crystals

The article of record as published may be found at http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1675050X-ray irradiation of strontium acetate hemihydrate produces CH3C022- and not the methyl radical as in other acetates. At higher temperatures this spectrum is replaced with two magnetically distinct ·CH2 CQ2- radicals. In the presence of the propionate. ion, further reaction proceeds at about -30°C to yield one rotamer of one magnetically distinct CHaCHCO,- radical. The ratio of propionate/acetate damage at room temperature is found to be 700: 1in strontium acetate, indicating some mechanism for the delocalization of the damage. This same reaction with a substituted propionate ion occurs in zinc acetate with a ratio of 20: 1. The coupling tensors for all species are presented.Office of Naval Researc
