    Letter from Paul and Margaret Whiteman to Amon Carter expressing sympathy at the news that his son, Amon, Jr., had been reported missing in action in North Africa.Ampon Dear Paul & I have written you several letters only to read them over and destroy. Nothing we can write seems adequate to express the way we feel in our hearts. Do have faith. See your boy returning home. He will be back. Please don't stop the beautiful work you have been doing all your life & for which the world knows you and we all love you for it. Do keep it up. We all need you now more than ever before. May God bless you Affectionately Paul & Margaret March 31, 1943 6650 Franklin Ave Hollywood, Ca

    Letter from Ferne Whiteman Smith, sister of band leader Paul Whiteman, to James M. North, Jr., vice president of Carter Publications Inc. and editor of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, regarding some cakes being sent.Mr Carter Letter from Paul's sister about the cake 3/3/37 JMN My dear Mr North When Brother was in St. Louis last month he asked me to send a certain cake to you and one to Mr. Carter. You should have received them last Saturday. You may like to know that this is a Rhume cake made without flour. Just ground hazelnuts, sugar and eggs with a filling of cream and rhume. Hope you enjoy it. And will you please pass this information on to Mr. Carter? Sincerely Ferne Whiteman Smith 4612 Sundell Blvd, St Loui

    Finite element solutions to boundary value problems

    This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.This thesis consists of two distinct parts which deal with two-point boundary value problems and parabolic problems, respectively. In Section 1 we examine the numerical solution of a two-point boundary value problem by a collocation method based on the consistency relationship of regular splines. An existence and convergence result is established which generalises the 0(h^2) convergence result of the cubic spline collocation scheme for the problem in question. Contrary to most previously documented finite element schemes this method employs splines that may be non-linear in structure. Consequently, by a judicious choice of regular spline, the dominant terms of the true solution may be imitated more accurately than by the conventional polynomial based splines. The scheme is implemented by an algorithm that examines the suitability of various classes of regular splines and determines the subsequent deployment of them. The second section investigates semi-discrete finite element schemes for approximating the linear parabolic equation. A standard finite element discretization is employed for the space variable whilst an A0-stable, linear multistep, multiderivative discretization scheme, (L.M.S.D.) is used in time. We consider both the homogeneous and the nonhomogeneous linear parabolic equations and derive optimal convergence results for the above schemes. The convergence results achieved with a k-step L.M.S.D. scheme, incorporating the first m derivatives, generalise and extend the studies of several authors who concentrate on the particular cases of linear multistep formulae, m-l, and one-step schemes, k=1. Ao-stable L.M.S.D. 's are constructed and their implementation procedures examined. The suitability of selecting a L.M.S.D. method, with m, k>1, in a semi-discrete Galerkin scheme is discussed, and its superiority over semi-discrete Galerkin schemes, that incorporate linear multistep or one-step formulae, is confirmed in several aspects. Finally, a class of quasi-linear parabolic equations is solved by a semi-discrete Galerkin scheme that is third order accurate in time. This method is based on a particular third order L.M.S.D. scheme and requires the solution of linearly algebraic systems of equations at each time level. Thus, we improve on all the previously documented linearised schemes as they are only second order accurate in time. All the schemes described in Section 2 are unconditionally stable
