Muller, Samuel B., Collection, circa 1970
This collection consists of the medical equipment used by Dr. Samuel B. Muller in the Nursing Department during his stay at Pittsburg State University.
Dr. Samuel B. Muller was born in 1905 in Kansas City, Missouri. In 1932, Dr. Muller received his Bachelors of Science, and in 1934, a Doctor in Medicine from the University of Kansas. In 1934 he married Cordelia White. He practiced medicine in Southeast Kansas following the marriage. In 1941, Dr. Muller began working at the Royal Oak Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan. In 1942, Dr. Muller became a Lieutenant Commander in the Naval Reserve and served in the South Pacific during World War II until 1945. After the war, Dr. Muller served as the City Health Officer in Pittsburg, Kansas from 1946 – 1973 joining the Crawford County Medical Society, The Red Cross Blood Drive, and the Mirza Shrine in the Process. In 1972, Dr. Muller also took up the job of the District Coroner. In 1973, Dr. Muller became a faculty member at the Kansas State College of Pittsburg (now Pittsburg State University) as the director of Student Health Services. In 1974, Dr. Muller became a fellow for the American Academy of Family Nurses. In the late 1970s, Dr. Muller left the Department. Dr. Muller passed away in Pittsburg in 1991.https://digitalcommons.pittstate.edu/fa/1366/thumbnail.jp
On the number of maximal independent sets in a graph
Miller and Muller (1960) and independently Moon and Moser (1965) determined
the maximum number of maximal independent sets in an -vertex graph. We give
a new and simple proof of this result

Optimal transformations of Muller conditions
In this paper, we are interested in automata over infinite words and infinite
duration games, that we view as general transition systems. We study
transformations of systems using a Muller condition into ones using a parity
condition, extending Zielonka's construction. We introduce the alternating
cycle decomposition transformation, and we prove a strong optimality result:
for any given deterministic Muller automaton, the obtained parity automaton is
minimal both in size and number of priorities among those automata admitting a
morphism into the original Muller automaton.
We give two applications. The first is an improvement in the process of
determinisation of B\"uchi automata into parity automata by Piterman and
Schewe. The second is to present characterisations on the possibility of
relabelling automata with different acceptance conditions
Linkage variation and chromosome maps
A recent paper in this journal by Detlefsen(1) is introduced as follows: "There is a well intrenched concept of recent genetics that hereditary factors or genes may be given fairly definite loci on chromosome maps and that these maps correspond to or represent, roughly perhaps, the actual conditions in the chromosome. The basis for this attractive and suggestive view is the premise that the distance between two genes is necessarily proportional to the percentage of crossing over which these two genes show, other things being equal. If the distance which gives one per cent of crossovers is used as an arbitrary unit of measurement, then it follows that distances on the chromosome may be calculated in terms of this unit. It has seemed to me for some time that the antecedent in this hypothetical proposition contains a more or less gratuitous assumption. We do not know that the distance which gives 1% (or n%) of crossovers is a fixed unit. Stated differently we do not know how constant the percentage of crossing over may be between two genes to which we give a fixed distance, i.e., our arbitrary unit of measurement may itself prove to be a variable. It may be possible for the distance which gives 1% of crossing over to differ in different females of the same population, or differ between stocks. In order to throw some light on these questions I began a set of experiments in 1916...........
A Nightmare Revisited: The Resotration of the Canadian War Museum’s 8.8 cm Flak Gun
The German 8.8 cm Flugabwehrkanone (flak) gun is one of the most famous weapons of the Second World War. It was greatly feared by Allied soldiers and airmen alike. Just as every tank they encountered was a Tiger, so too was every German gun an “88.” In December 1998, the Canadian War Museum set out to restore the 88 in the museum’s collection and return to public view one of the few such artifacts in Canada. The museum’s gun was in extremely poor condition, and needed major work. Its components had been disassembled before it had come to the museum and had obviously been at the mercy of the elements for many years. In order to return this complicated weapon as close as possible to its original specifications, an enormous amount of technical information had to be amassed. Some of this should be of interest to readers of this journal, both as an account of a gun that wreaked havoc amongst Canadian soldiers in the Second World War, and as an insight into the nature of museum restoration procedures.
The Friends of the Canadian War Museum raised $10,000 for the gun’s restoration, and without their funding the project could not have been undertaken. Several companies bid on the project and Musetek Ltd. won the contract. Work commenced during the second week of January 1999 and the gun’s restoration was completed by the first week of April 1999. The following article will be divided into three sections: 1) the history and development of the 8.8 cm; 2) the process of identifying the particular gun owned by the CWM, and 3) the story of the gun’s restoration
Spiroxys contortus (Rudolphi, 1819) and Hedruris orestiae (Moniez, 1889) in Argentine turtles
Knowledge of parasites in turtles is scarce,particularly with regard to freshwater turtles of SouthAmerica. Here, we describe the association of Spiroxyscontortus (Rudolphi, 1819) in Phrynops hilarii (DumĂ©ril& Bibron, 1835) and S. contortus and Hedruris orestiae(Moniez, 1889) in Hydromedusa tectifera (Cope, 1870).The presence of S. contortus in P. hilarii represents anew host record and also the southernmost geographicrecord for this species. More interestingly, the presenceof H. orestiae in H. tectifera represents the first record ofthis helminth species from a reptilian host.Fil: Palumbo, Ezequiel.
