    This one-volume scrapbook contains photographs, news clippings, and information that Agnes P. Medill kept during 1918-1922, when she was employed by the Delaware College Extension Service to organize Boys' and Girls' Liberty Clubs in the Delaware public schools. During the 1918 school year, Agnes Medill organized at least fifteen clubs throughout Delaware schools.https://library.udel.edu/static/purl.php?mss041

    Flood Wave-Tide Wave Interaction on the James River During the Agnes Flood

    During the Agnes flood hourly tidal height data were collected at seven locations along the tidal James River and currents were measured at two transects in the lower James. A comparison between actual tides and currents and the predicted tidal features as given by the tide and tidal current tables of NOAA was made. Results of this comparison show that Agnes did significantly affect water levels in the upper portion of the tidal James, especially near Richmond. However in the lower portion of the James no discernible rise was evident due to the passage of the flood crest. A small storm surge (feet) was noted on the day of the passage of Agnes, 21 June, throughout the tidal James. A phase shift in times of high and low water due to the interaction of the two wave systems was not observed. In the freshwater portion of the tidal James currents continually ebbed during the passage of the flood crest. In the saline portion of the system, the flood effect on the currents was limited to the surface portion of the channel.Virginia Institute of Marine Scienc

    IN VITRO INFLUENCE OF TWO CONCENTRATIONS OF KETONE BODIES ON DIFFERENT STEPS OF PHAGOCYTOSIS OF OVINE NEUTROPHILS Sartorelli P., Paltrinieri S., Agnes F. Istituto di Patologia Generale Veterinaria, Milano In previous works (1, 2) we have found that sheep neutrophil functions were affected differently when high concentrations of acetoacetate (4.8 mmol/l), -OH-butyrate (4.8 mmol/l), or acetoacetate (4.8 mmol/l) and -OH-butyrate (4.8 mmol/l) together were present. Because acetoacetate is a lithium salt, we also verified the effects of LiCl (4.8 mmol/l): in particular chemotaxis was depressed when both the ketone bodies were added simultaneously, while the uptake of latex particles was depressed only with -OH-butyrate, maybe due to the activating effect of LiCl. To verify the efficency of non-specific immunity in subketotic conditions, when infectious diseases are frequently detectable, we repeated these tests in the presence of lower concentrations of the ketone bodies (2.4 mmol/l). Furthermore, to complete the evaluation of the phagocytic process we studied the adherence and the respiratory burst of ovine neutrophils either at 4.8 mmol/l or at 2.4 mmol/l of the ketone bodies. Neutrophils were isolated from the blood of 8 sheep by centrifugation followed by two hypotonic lysis of erythrocytes; chemotaxis was measured in a modified Boyden chamber using the leading front method; phagocytosis was measured using polystyrene latex particles, with spectrophotometric evaluation after dioxan solubilization; adherence was measured in microtiter plate, along with the respiratory burst by means of superoxide production evaluation. Adherence and superoxide production were not affected by the ketone bodies or LiCl at the different concentrations employed. Even if a trend to depression of chemotaxis was detectable when the two ketone bodies were added simultaneously, no significative differences were found, due to strong individual variations. No variation in latex partcicle uptake ability was detectable using 2.4 mmol/l ketone bodies. In conclusion, while with high concentrations of ketone bodies some steps of the phagocytic process were undoubtably affected, the influence of lower concentration of ketone bodies, similar to those detectable in subketotic conditions, is much more variable among animals. This could suggest that non specific immunity is less involved in the immunodepressive status that characterize the subketotic condition, than other factors, such as specific immunity depression.
