As we all know, several million Germans emigrated to America between the eighteenth and twentieth centuries. Research has to establish the kind of information these people possessed about the New World while still living in Germany, their motives for leaving, their experiences while en route, and the often very complicated processes of getting settled. In almost all cases, the migrants' hopes and expectations were made up of a combination of political, religious, economic, and personal considerations. Consequently, research in this field has to take into account the general as well as the individual, the past of these migrants as well as their future. -

8IB .3 .5. THE SPECTRUM OF RHO CASSIOPEIAE. I* Wallace R. Beardsley! Yerkes Observatory 196lApJS. Received August 20, I960; revised September 16, 1960 ABSTRACT This paper constitutes an analysis of an extensive series of spectrograms of p Cassiopeiae taken by several observers principally with the 82-inch telescope of the McDonald Observatory both during and after the deep minimum in light of 1946. Identification measures by Tai and Thackeray before the minimum have been combined with detailed measures by the writer during and after the minimum, to form a catalogue of the spectral lines as seen on plates of medium dispersion. A group of 23 selected zero-volt lines were analyzed for radial-velocity and intensity changes. Although no change in radial velocity was detected, marked changes in intensity did occur. The hydrogen lines in p Cas in 1936 were found to be as strong as, or even stronger than, in ô CMa. Weakness of the hydrogen lines as early as 1939 may be evidence of spectral change leading up to the 1946 minimum. Evidence is cited for an over- lying shell in which the TiO is formed. Unlike RV Tauri stars, the spectral type from line ratios at minimum light was also M3. The spectral type after minimum varied progressively from K5p to G5p, even reaching F8p during the “flare-up” of 1950. The behavior of emission in the hydrogen and Ca I X 4227 lines is discussed, as well as the presence of a sharp absorption core in Ca I. This core also was probably due to an overlying shell. -

In a documentary research, the final time in the 50-, 100- and 400-m freestyle events and MC (S11, S12 and S13) of national (n = 40) and international (n = 72) elite swimmers was analyzed. The analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test and Spearman’s correlation with 95% confidence (P < 0.05) and Cohen’s d was calculated. There was a large effect of MC on the final time in the 50-m (P = 0.034, d = 1.55) for national ath- letes and in the 50-m (P = 0.001, d = 2.64), 100-m (P = 0.001, d = 3.01) and 400-m (P = 0.001, d = 2.88) for international athletes. S12 and S13 classes were faster compared to S11 class for all international events, but only in the 50-m for the national event (P < 0.05). It was found a strong negative relationship between the final time and MC for international athletes (Spearman’s Rho ≥ 0.78). There was a significant influence of MC on the performance of swimmers in freestyle races, especially in international swimmers.
