Polly H. Carder Collection on George F. Root
George Frederick Root (1820-1895) was an American songwriter and music educator. He is perhaps best known for his song "The Battle Cry of Freedom," which was written and rose to popularity during the U.S. Civil War. The Polly H. Carder Collection on George F. Root contains original published scores and songbooks from the period 1852-1907 and photocopied scores collected by Polly H. Carder, author of the book George F. Root, Civil War Songwriter: A Biography. The collection also contains a short article, "The Last Days of George F. Root," written by Root's daughter, Clara Louise Burnham

George F. Root, Civil War songwriter a biography
"When the Civil War broke out in 1861, "The Battle Cry of Freedom" became perhaps the most common patriotic song echoing throughout the North. The author of that famous tune was George F. Root, and his many other patriotic songs established him as "the musician of the people.""--Provided by publisher

Seasonal distribution of parasitism of the face fly (Musca autumnalis De Geer) by Paraiotonchium autumnale (Nickle) Slobodyanyuk in Eastern Tennessee
The distribution and prevalence of the nematode Paraiotonchium autumnale in Musca autumnalis was studied at five sites in eastern Tennessee during 1993 and 1994. Paraiotonchium autumnale parasitized face flies at all sites in 1993 with a seasonal prevalence of 1.66%. Parasitized face flies were collected from four of the five study sites in 1994 and had a lower seasonal prevalence of 0.48%. Prevalence at the eastern Tennessee sites during 1993 and 1994 were the lowest reported in the United States, although Ontario had similar levels of parasitism in 1971 of less than 2%. Paraiotonchium autumnale appeared to have no effect on the numbers of face flies collected during 1993 or 1994. Experiments to examine the effects of simulated rainfall on larval mortality in Musca autumnalis were conducted by applying 0, 6, 12, and 24 mm of simulated rainfall to 24, 48, and 96 hr postoviposited larvae in artificial dung pats. Survival of 24 hr postoviposited larvae was significantly affected by simulated rainfall. Unexpected decreases in the numbers of face flies collected were not related to the application of insecticidal eartags. Numbers of face flies were correlated with rainfall of 8 mm or more prior to collections
Antitrust Implications Arising from the Use of Overyly Broad Restrictive Covenants for the Protection of Trade Secrets
Many employers require employees to agree to contractual provisions restricting postemployment disclosure of trade secret information. These contracts, however, are often drafted so as to include information not properly within the scope of trade secret protection. The author examines this problem and, \u27after concluding that current judicial treatment is inadequate to protect the interests of employees and the public, suggests an antitrust remedy

Stimulated terahertz emission due to electronic Raman scattering in silicon
Silicon-based semiconductors are intensively investigated over the past years as promising candidates for optoelectronic devices at terahertz (THz) frequencies [1]. Optically pumped intracenter silicon lasers, realized in the past decade in the THz range, are based on direct optical transitions between shallow levels of different shallow donors [2]. Recently, terahertz Raman laser emission has been demonstrated in silicon doped by antimony [3] and phosphorus [4].
We report on realization of terahertz lasers based on intracenter electronic Raman scattering in silicon doped by arsenic (Si:As, frequency range 4.8 – 5.1 THz and 5.9 – 6.5 THz) and silicon doped by bismuth (Si:Bi, 4.6 – 5.9 THz) under optical excitation by infrared frequency-tunable free electron laser at low lattice temperatures. The Stokes shift of the observed laser emission is equal to the Raman-active donor electronic transition between the ground 1s(A1) and the excited 1s(E) donor states. Raman terahertz gain of the lasers is similar to those observed for the donor-type terahertz silicon donor lasers
