Freemont pass in Antelope Valley, Los Angeles, ca.1900-1950
Photograph of Freemont pass in Antelope Valley, Los Angeles, ca.1900-1950. Two large rock faces, lined to either side by shrubs and other low-growing vegetation, create a narrow passageway through which the cleared road must pass. Telephone poles are visible to the right. Photoprint reads "Beale's Cut. Pass cut by Beale from San Fernando Valley to Newhall". The following are transcriptions of memos regarding the pass:; Memo by Eugene Plummer, [s.d.]: "Fremont crossed into the San Fernando Valley coming south from Santa Barbara by the Santa Susana pass and in the San Fernando Valley, came to the home of Geronimo Lopez. (This site is now under Chatsworth lake.) he there inquired where he could encamp his men, preparatory to engaging the Californians from Los Angeles. Lopez directed him to the place of Mariano de la Luz Verdugo. This is now the site of Universal City--the place being marked by the adobe chapel at Universal City."; Memo per Plummer in regard to the Newhall Cut between Newhall and San Fernando, March 26, 1937: "This pass is marked as the Fremont Pass. Plummer says that Fremont never came into the San Fernando Valley by this route but over the Santa Susana. This cut was made in the 1860's by Nadeau, to accomodaate freighting to north from Los Angeles and was operated as a toll road. The toll road was controlled by a man named Cummings, and Plummer relates that Cummings was fond of Liquor but could not 'hold his liquor'. On one occasion, Plummer and others wished to drive a herd of cattle through the pass and to avoid paying the toll charges. They sent a man ahead who treated Cummings to 7 or 8 drinks of brandy till he was 'out', and then they drove the cattle through the pass without paying a toll.

California Teacher Development Project; Fremont ESEA Title 3, Dissemination Grant Period. Evaluation Report 1972-73.
The evaluation of the California Teacher Development Project for the 1972-73 project year reports data for four performance criteria. These criteria relate to the expected behavioral changes of teachers involved in an inservice workshop program in individualizing instruction. One criterion relates to teacher knowledge of individualized instruction (cognitive behavior); three criteria relate to teacher attitude toward individualized instruction. To determine the effectiveness of the 1972-73 inservice program, a comparison group was formed using data from participants in the 1971-72 program. Instruments used to measure the effectiveness of the workshop program were: (a) the Fremont Test of Individualized Instruction, (b) the EPIC Individualized Instruction Attitude Inventory, and (c) workshop evaluation forms which were completed by workshop participants. Participants in the 1972-73 workshop program did not perform as well as the comparison group on either the Fremont Test of Individualized Instruction or the EPIC Individualized Instruction Attitude Inventory; however, the difference in the performance was not statistically significant, and the 1972-73 workshop program is considered to have satisfactorily met its objective of disseminating individualized instruction techniques through inservice programs.

Jumping plant-lice of the Paurocephalinae (Insecta, Hemiptera, Psylloidea): systematics and phylogeny
Much confusion exists with respect to the content and definition of the psyUid subfamily
Paurocephalinae. Based on a cladistic analysis of 22 morphological characters (16 adult
and 6 larval), the subfamily is redefined to comprise the following five valid genera:
Aphorma (3 species), Camarotoscena (12 valid species, with 1 new synonymy), DiC/idophlebia
(= Aconopsylla, Haplaphalara, Paraphalaroida, Sinuonemopsylla and Woldaia;
24 species), Paurocephala (52 species) and Syntomoza (= Anomoterga and Homalocephata;
7 species). The tribe Diclidophlebiini is synonymised with the subfamily Paurocephalinae.
The seven new generic synonymies produce 25 new species combinations. A
key to genera for adults and fifth instar larvae is presented. In their revised definitions
the genera exhibit relatively restricted distributions and host ranges: Aphorma: Palaearctic,
Oriental - Ranunculaceae; Camarotoscena: Palaearctic - Salicaceae; Diclidophtebia:
pantropical - Tiliaceae, Malvaceae, Sterculiaceae, Melastomataceae, Rhamnaceae,
Ulmaceae and Euphorbiaceae; Paurocephala: Old World tropics - Moraceae, Urticaceae.
Ulmaceae (all Urticales), Malvaceae. Sterculiaceae (all Malvales) and Clusiaceae (rheales);
Syntomoza: Oriental, Afrotropical, Palaearctic - Flacourtiaceae, Salicaceae. The
following taxa which have been referred to the Paurocephalinae are transferred to other
taxa: Atmetocranium to the Calophyidae and Primascena to the Aphalaroidinae;
Pseudaphorma is symonymised with Aphatara, and P. astigma with A. polygoni; the position
of Strophingia is confirmed in the Strophingiinae.peer-reviewe

Exterior view of Mission San Fernando Rey de Espana from the west end of the cloister, ca.1890
Photograph of the exterior view of Mission San Fernando Rey de Espana from the west end of the cloister, ca.1890. The mission cloister and building is in dilapidated condition. There are several people standing underneath the cloister peering outward.; "San Fernando Mission Rey de Espana, seventeenth of the twenty-one missions founded by the Franciscans, was established on September 8, 1797. Its location was ideal, for it was in fertile country, and it was to become one of the major supply sources for the pueblo of Los Angeles (22 miles away) as it grew. The mission farms produced olives, dates, wheat, barley, corn, and other foods. It had 7000 sheep and many other livestock. The secularization that took place in 1834 was, of course, disastrous. The buildings fell into disuse and were vandalized for their building materials. During the Mexican-American War most of the mission lands, covering much of the San Fernando Valley, were sold for $14,000; John C. Fremont used the mission as his headquarters. Following the war the missions were returned to the Catholic Church, but the deterioration continued. Today, the convent buildings dating to the mission days remain. The church, damaged severely in the 1971 Sylmar earthquake, was demolished, and an exact replica built." -- unknown author, ca.2002
