Morphological variation in Scandinavian populations of the diploid-tetraploid species pair Anthericum ramosum and Anthericum liliago (Anthericaceae)
No full textBoth members of the diploid-tetraploid species pair Anthericum ramosum L. and Anthericum liliago L. occur as geographically disjunct isolates on the margins of their northern range in Scandinavia. Variation in floral morphology was studied in 33 populations of A. ramosum from four geographic regions and 25 populations of A. liliago from seven regions in Scandinavia. Tepal shape was characterized with the help of moment invariants, and intra- and inter-specific variation in style and filament length was investigated. There were significant between-region and between-population differences in tepal shape and style and filament length within both species. However, despite the geographic disjunction of both species' distributions, there was considerable overlap in tepal shape between populations from the different regions. The hierarchical partitioning of tepal shape diversity was similar in the two species. Most of the total diversity was explained by regional and interpopulation components of diversity (48% and 35%, respectively, in A. ramosum and 61% and 22%, respectively, in A. liliago). The two species were clearly discriminated on the basis of tepal shape and style and outer filament lengths. A southern Swedish population, containing triploid hybrids between A. ramosum and A. liliago, was indistinguishable from other Scandinavian populations of A. liliago on the basis of tepal shape. However, a (allegedly hybrid) Danish population of A. liliago was intermediate between the two species in tepal shape

The Honor Roll March 1944
No full textThe Honor Roll Newsletter Collection is an incomplete set of newsletters spanning 1943-1945. They were composed by a local high-school English teacher, Mae Call, who would mail them to local servicemen stationed in the United States and overseas during World War II. The newsletters also were sold locally for $0.05 each.
The newsletters include snippets of local news (weddings, births, deaths, moves, gossip, and general news); photographs of local servicemen and their families and girlfriends, and local events; humorous illustrations; newspaper clippings; clippings of pin-up girls and comics; and the Honor Roll listing of all servicemen from Chester. Call also included the mailing addresses of servicemen so readers could write to their local heroes. Additionally, she printed the stories of soldiers who had been injured in the line of duty and where they had been hospitalized, as well as local residents’ ill health and/or injuries.
The tone used by the author is upbeat, touching, and light-heartedly humorous, where possible. The amount of detail Call used in her descriptions allows researchers to follow the events and people of Chester to a great degree during final years of World War II
