HART William S. Hart came to the movies in 1914 from a long line of theatrical ex perience, mostly Shakespearean and while to many he is the strong, silent Western hero of film he is also the peer of John Ford as a major force in shaping and developing this genre we enjoy, the Western. In 1889 in what is to become Oklahoma Territory the Cherokee Strip is just a graz ing area owned by Indians and worked day and night be the itinerant cowboys called 'tumbleweeds'. Alas, it is the end of the old West as the homesteaders are moving in . Hart becomes involved with a homesteader's daughter and her evil brother who has a scheme to jump the line as "sooners".

the best gasoline I are still needed overseas There's no prize for second place in a war— so America can't take a chance with anything but the best. Our armed forces have been recruited from the pick of American men and women— the young, the physically fit, the alert and intelligent. Nor has there been any compromise with quality in the equipment and material needed for war. That's why the fighting gasoline delivered to our Army and Navy represents the best of the American petroleum industry's production, plus most of the Ethyl fluid being manufactured. Not until the armed services say it is safe to cut back on military production can you expect unlimited quantities of high- quality gasoline. Only then can we promise you all the Ethyl gasoline you want—an Ethyl that will bring out the best per- formance of any car. »Look for the ETHYL Ethyl Corporation trade mark Chrysler Bldg.,N.Y.C.

People in Pressure Cookers: Enactment of Literacy Identities of Struggling First Grade Readers Across Reading Contexts in a High Stakes Testing Culture
PEOPLE IN PRESSURE COOKERS: ENACTMENT OF LITERACY IDENTITIES OF STRUGGLING FIRST GRADE READERS ACROSS READING CONTEXTS IN A HIGH STAKES TESTING CULTURE BY BRETT ALAN BROWN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Curriculum and Instruction in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Anne Haas Dyson, Chair Professor Brenda Farnell Professor Emerita Violet J. Harris Associate Professor Luz Murillo, Texas State University Abstract Assessing and teaching early literacy in the wake of the Response to Intervention (RtI) model’s tiered instruction and the trend toward greater accountability for schools has lead to the reduction of literacy to mere skills based instruction for many students. At the same time, increased pressure has been applied to teachers and administrators to improve assessment scores. This has led to the labeling of students by schools and the channeling of so called “at risk” students into narrow skills based interventions. This dissertation centers on student enactment of literacy identities in contrast to institutional identities imposed on students under the RtI model. In framing this study, the national and local contexts that created pressure around literacy assessment and instruction are considered. However, most of the data for this study centers around three first grade students as they enacted their literacy identities across several instructional contexts. By observing students as they enacted their identities this study demonstrates the need to challenge narrow skills based assessments which impart identities on to students and funnels them into instruction focused on the aforementioned narrow skills. -
