April, 1966 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A study such as this owes a huge debt to the two hundred persons who permitted us to interview them and who gracious ly made their files available to us. We are especially conscious of the sacrifices these men made since they were all very busy men and women--school board members , school admin- istrators , public officials , newspapermen , heads of civil rights groups. number of them gave us confidential documents , permitted us to borrow their personal files , and helped us locate other documents which we needed. They spent as long as eight hours in interviews with us. We remember several of these persons as especially helpful , considerate, or insightful; but we have decided not to attempt to thank any of these persons by name here. To thank one or two would be an insult to twenty others who also went out of their way for us; and to thank twenty would be an improper recognition of our debt to a hundred more. We will no doubt disappoint many of these respondents, who were hope- ful that we would present a series of recommendations which they could make use of; but as responsible social scientists we are convinced that our duty is to report facts and possible sociological explanations of these facts and let those who are qualified by experience or training develop specific proposals from this.

Credit: Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution - Advanced Imaging and Visualization Laboratory. 1 Abstract In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (NMSA, 16 U.S.C. 1434 et seq.), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS) has prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) that considers alternatives for the proposed designation of Wisconsin - Lake Michigan as a National Marine Sanctuary. The proposed action addresses NOAA’s responsibilities under the NMSA to identify, designate, and protect areas of the marine and Great Lakes environment with special national significance due to their conservation, recreational, ecological, historical, scientific, cultural, archaeological, educational, or aesthetic qualities as national marine sanctuaries. ONMS has developed five alternatives for the designation, and the DEIS evaluates the environmental consequences of each under NEPA. The DEIS also serves as a resource assessment under the NMSA, documenting present and potential uses of the areas considered in the alternatives.

  • Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan
    Boats Built at Toledo, Ohio Including Monroe, Michigan A Comprehensive Listing of the Vessels Built from Schooners to Steamers from 1810 to the Present Written and Compiled by: Matthew J. Weisman and Paula Shorf National Museum of the Great Lakes 1701 Front Street, Toledo, Ohio 43605 Welcome, The Great Lakes are not only the most important natural resource in the world, they represent thousands of years of history. The lakes have dramatically impacted the social, economic and political history of the North American continent. The National Museum of the Great Lakes tells the incredible story of our Great Lakes through over 300 genuine artifacts, a number of powerful audiovisual displays and 40 hands-on interactive exhibits including the Col. James M. Schoonmaker Museum Ship. The tales told here span hundreds of years, from the fur traders in the 1600s to the Underground Railroad operators in the 1800s, the rum runners in the 1900s, to the sailors on the thousand-footers sailing today. The theme of the Great Lakes as a Powerful Force runs through all of these stories and will create a lifelong interest in all who visit from 5 – 95 years old. Toledo and the surrounding area are full of early American History and great places to visit. The Battle of Fallen Timbers, the War of 1812, Fort Meigs and the early shipbuilding cities of Perrysburg and Maumee promise to please those who have an interest in local history. A visit to the world-class Toledo Art Museum, the fine dining along the river, with brew pubs and the world famous Tony Packo’s restaurant, will make for a great visit.

Stereotypen aod Bookbinders, Herald Building, Cleveland, 0, ADVERTISEMENT. The publishers, in presenting this Directory, which they flatter themselves will be found, in style and completeness nearly adequate to the wants of our flourishing city, in justice to themselves, and to forestall any criticisms which may fall unjustly on the work, would offer the following remarks: Wo expense has been spared to secure a thorough canvass of the city; every street, lane, and alley, has been reported to us, and we have had no reason to question the fidelity of those whom we have employed. Still there may be, and probably are, some errors in the volume, in reference to residences, places of business, and occu­ pation, arising from the fact that some of our streets are very deficient in numbers ; and especially will this apply to those recently laid out. The most rigid examina­ tion was made of the reports brought in to us, and all that care and industry could do to render the work full and accurate, has been done. The sketch of the city has been carefully prepared by our townsman, Dr. J. S Newberry; the historical portion of which having been principally compiled from the notes kindly furnished him by John Barr, Esq.
