Ajo's Desert Sharks Went for the Gold
1916 Your Hometown Newspaper 2013 Ajo, Pima County, Arizona Wednesday, July 17, 2013 Volume 89, Number 45, ©2013 Ajo’s Desert Sharks went for the gold Personnel, policy on AUSD agenda Meeting in regularly scheduled sessions, the Ajo Unified School District board last week dealt with a variety of board policy, personnel, and business issues. Superintendent Robert Dooley, in a prelude to discussion on person- nel items, noted in his board report that staffing presents a perennial problem this time of year. He said he may ask for a special board meet- ing on hiring. Dooley singled out staff members Patti Spencer, Claudian Carpenter, and Angelina Valenzuela with praise for additional work they have put into the business office this summer. The School Improvement Grant (SIG) staff will return from summer break on July 29, he said, and teachers will be coming back to campus August 5 and 6. Dooley also noted that Jumpstart and STEM classes had started the week before, with 40 students in the former, and 12 in STEM. In personnel actions, the board voted to accept one certified and three classified resignations. Velma Taboada, hired at last month’s board meeting, decided to withdraw from employment with the district, cit- ing family reasons. The three classified resignations accepted were Joni Jaramillo, in payroll and accounts payable; Shawna Rupple, school sec- retary; and Dahlia Perez, custodian. The board okayed Charmaine Beharie for an extra-pay position as coordinator of the gifted program, and approved the hiring of Venus Celaya in accounting and accounts payable, and Nathan Garcia as a Jacob Lewis pushed off at the start of the boys’ 13-14 50-yard backstroke. -

Xerox University Microfilms 300 North Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106 I I
INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -

APPROVED BY MEMBERS OF THE THESIS COlfiMITTEE: Ann Weikel, Chairman Charles LeGuin · Michael Reardon This thesis examines the general economic and intel- lectual climate of the mid-Tudor Commonwealth as a background for a specific study of the financial reforms instituted by Edward VI's government while the Duke of Northumberland controlled the Privy Council.

South Carolina's Partisan
SOWING THE SEEDS OF DISUNION: SOUTH CAROLINA’S PARTISAN NEWSPAPERS AND THE NULLIFICATION CRISIS, 1828-1833 by ERIKA JEAN PRIBANIC-SMITH A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Communication and Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2010 Copyright Erika Jean Pribanic-Smith, 2010 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Ultimately the first state to secede on the eve of the Civil War, South Carolina erupted in controversy following the 1828 passage of an act increasing duties on foreign imports for the protection of domestic industry. Most could agree that the tariff was unconstitutional, unequal in that it benefited the industrial North more than the agrarian South, and oppressive to plantation states that had to rely on expensive northern goods or foreign imports made more costly by the duties. Factions formed, however, based on recommended means of redress. Partisan newspapers of that era became vocal supporters of one faction or the other. What became the Free Trade Party by the end of the Nullification Crisis began as a loosely-organized group that called for unqualified resistance to what they perceived as a gross usurpation of power by the federal government. The Union Party grew out of a segment of the population that was loyal to the government and alarmed by their opposition’s disunion rhetoric. Strong at the start due to tariff panic and bolstered by John C. Calhoun’s “South Carolina Exposition and Protest,” the Free Trade Party lost ground when the Unionists successfully turned their overzealous disunion language against them in the 1830 city and state elections. -

Biographical/Historical note: The Baker family became established in South Carolina in the 17th century when Richard Baker (d. 1698) emigrated from Barbados and acquired large land holdings along the Ashley River. His grandson, Richard Baker (d. 1752), married Mary Bohun (d. 1736), daughter of Nicholas Bohun (and granddaughter of Edmund Bohun, 1645-1699); their residence was at Archdale Hall Plantation in Dorchester County, S.C. Their son, Richard Bohun Baker (1736-1783), was the next owner of Archdale Hall; he married Elizabeth Elliott (d. 1771), the daughter of Barnard Elliott (d. 1758), whose other children were Amarinthea Elliott and Barnard Elliott (d. 1778). Richard Bohun Baker's children by Elizabeth Elliott were: William Bohun Baker (died young); Elizabeth Elliott Baker; Mary Bohun Baker; Charlotte Bohun Baker; and Richard Bohun Baker (1757-1837), the heir of Archdale Hall, who married Harriett Hyrne. Harriett Hyrne Baker was the daughter of Mary and Henry Hyrne of neighboring Tipseeboo Plantation. Archdale Hall was next inherited by Richard Bohun Baker (d. 1865), son of Richard Bohun Baker (1757-1837), who in turn devised it to his nephew Dr. Richard Bohun Baker (d. 1901). After his death Archdale Hall Plantation was acquired by Emma Drayton-Grimke, a great niece of Richard Bohun Baker (d. 1865). Emma Drayton-Grimke was the daughter of [Mr.] Sachtleben and Mary Bohun Baker; she married the Reverend John Drayton-Grimke, rector of St. -
