- Description: Rhodeo is the Independent Student Newspaper of Rhodes University. Located in Grahamstown, Rhodeo was established in 1947, and renamed in 1994 as Activate. During apartheid Rhodeo became an active part of the struggle for freedom of expression as part of the now defunct South African Student Press Union. Currently Activate is committed to informing Rhodes University students, staff and community members about relevant issues, mainly on campus. These issues range from hard news to more creative journalism. While Activate acts as a news source, one of its main objectives it to be accessible as a training ground for student journalists. The newspaper is run entirely by the students and is published twice a term. Activate is a free newspaper which receives an annual grant from the Rhodes University Student Representative Council, however, majority of its revenue is generated through advertising.

Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 14 , This is in essence a checklist of the marine fishes occurring in the estuarine and coastal waters of southern Africa from the Kunene River in the west to Beira in the east. Deep sea fishes occurring below 200 metres or 100 fathoms are not included. The freshwater fishes from the Zambezi southwards will be published in Part 2. The scientific names, their spelling, authors and dates, have been carefully checked and brought into line with the most recent revisions available. However, the tremendous outpouring of scientific papers will make some scientific names obsolete even while this checklist is being printed. Also there will continue to be additions to the fauna and this, the first list to be published, must be regarded as a foundation on which subsequent lists can be based.

A 22 GHz water maser radiometer

- Description: This thesis describes the properties of interstellar water maser sources, and other sources near 22 GHz. Calculations based on manufacturer's specifications of the 22 GHz mixer, which was to be used in a water radiometer, and on the size antenna aperture of the proposed antenna aperture, show the viability of constructing such a radiometer for spectral line and continuum work. Various sections of the radiometer were constructed, including the Cassegrain feed system and its support, an intermediate frequency amplifier and buffer, a timing control unit, and a data processor. These units are part of the radiometer, which is almost ready for observations of sources.

A computer analysis of some of the Harrison metrics

- Description: In his paper B.K.Harrison concludes with the observation that his "solutions ... are presented as raw material for further research in General Relativity". In the same spirit, the present work started out as an attempt to process that raw material in a production-line powered by a computer. Harrison's solutions uould be fed in at one end, and the finished product, as yet undecided, would appear at the other. In the event, however, the project became more like an exercise in quality control, to continue the analogy. A search was made for algebraic criteria which would distinguish between those solutions which were acceptable for further analysis with particular regard to Gravitational radiation, and those which were not. Regrettably, no criteria could be found which characterised radiative solutions unequivocally, and, at the same time, lent themselves to a computer approach. The result is that the discussion of radiative solutions has had to be relegated to an appendix (Appendix 1), while the main body of the work is concerned with the determination of those quantities (the Newman-Penrose scalars) which would seem to be the foundation of any future computer-based analysis of gravitational radiation. Chapter 1 is an account of the underlying mathematical formulation, defining the terms, concepts and processes involved. In Chapter 2 the transformation of some of the ideas of Chapter 1 into computer software is presented. Chapter 3 is concerned with the specific metrics (the Harrison metrics) and the extent to which they have heen processed. The project has leaned heavily on papers by Harrison for the "raw material", by D' Inverno and Russell Clark, who pioneered the techniques and classified the Harrison metrics, and by Sachs for the treatment of gravitational radiation. However, the analysis of diagonal metrics, the special tetrad of Chapter 2 and the results in Appendix 2 are new.

In Chapter 2 the transformation of some of the ideas of Chapter 1 into computer software is presented. Chapter 3 is concerned with the specific metrics (the Harrison metrics) and the extent to which they have heen processed. The project has leaned heavily on papers by Harrison for the "raw material", by D' Inverno and Russell Clark, who pioneered the techniques and classified the Harrison metrics, and by Sachs for the treatment of gravitational radiation. However, the analysis of diagonal metrics, the special tetrad of Chapter 2 and the results in Appendix 2 are new.

- Description: Allopatric populations of Pseudocrenilabrus philander were found to differ in male breeding coloration. These colours are described and attention is drawn to the possibility that male coloration might prevent population hybridisation. Behaviour of the allopatric populations was studied in the laboratory. The execution of behaviour patterns of the various populations was found to be indistinguishable, and very similar to that of Haplochromis. Behaviour of P. philander was recorded in three morphologically different natural water bodies. Diurnal activities were found to follow a set rhythm. Though P. philander was shown to have adapted to a variety of habitats they retained their behavioural Components in an unchanged form. Field and laboratory observations are used to propose a behavioural mechanism for the natural regulation of population density. Although aggression between conspecific territorial Sarot herodon mossambicus habituated so that neighbours could live close to one another, it was found that P.philander are intolerant of their neighbours and are consequently forced apart. Though the execution of behaviour patterns was apparently identical for all populations of P. philander, field observations indicated that the frequency of performance differed. An experimental procedure was established to quantitatively compare the behaviour of various populations. As a result of comparative and choice chamber investigations, it is suggested that one of the four populations of P. philander would be unlikely to hybridise with the others if they were to become sympatric. These popUlations would be kept apart because of colour and behavioural differences. Differences of egg-size, fry-size, developmental and interbrood periods were also found, providing further evidence of incipient speciation. Evolutionary divergence of the allopatric populations of P. philander is discussed against a background of geological and geographical evidence. Consideration is given to the role of male coloration, ethological barriers and the importance of ethological differences to taxonomy. Behavioural evidence suggests that P. philander has closer affinities with the haplochromids than was initially realised. It is concluded that the clinal populations of P. philander should not be taxonomically separated, and it is argued that it would be premature to give the Kuruman population an elevated taxonomic status.

A dielectric and spectroscopic study of molecular association in solutions of alcohols

- Description: This study is concerned with the association characteristics of solutions of alcohols in some non-polar solvents. The permittivities at 2 MHz and 25°C for solutions of the straight chain octanols in cyclohexane, carbon tetrachloride and benzene have been examined over the entire solute concentration range, with particular attention -1 being paid to the range below 0.1 molℓ⁻¹ By applying the Kirkwood- Fröhlich equation to these data, the apparent dipole moments of the alcohols as a function of concentration have been evaluated. These concentration dependencies have been correlated with infrared absorption results on the same systems to provide information on the sizes and configurations of the proposed hydrogen bonded multimers. It is concluded that, at very low solute concentrations, the alcohol molecules exist as monomers; but with increasing concentration, two types of hydrogen bonded multimers are formed, the first (at low concentrations) being of high dipole moment and the second (at higher concentrations) being of low dipole moment. At high concentrations, the molecules associate to form a three-dimensional network. Attempts have been made to determine equilibrium parameters for molecular models which are consistent with the qualitative understanding of the association behaviour. These parameters were obtained by applying least-squares, curve-fitting techniques to the low concentration permittivity data. A similar investigation has been conducted on solutions of 2,3,4-trimethyl-3-pentanol in the same solvents. The steric hindrance around the hydroxyl group of this alcohol modifies the association behaviour so that a three-dimensional network does not form at high solute concentrations. Proton magnetic resonance chemical shifts for the hydroxyl proton of this alcohol in carbon tetrachloride solutions have been measured. Attempts have also been made to determine equilibrium parameters which describe formation of the hydrogen bonded multimers. To extend this study to include solutes other than octanols, similar experiments have been conducted on solutions of t-butanol in hexadecane, a system which has recently been investigated by other workers using different experimental techniques. The association behaviour of this system is qualitatively similar to that of the straight-chain octanols. The combination of permittivity and infrared measurements, although proving extremely powerful in interpreting the association characteristics of dilute alcohol solutions, is less adequate at high solute concentrations. Attention was therefore directed towards dielectric relaxation and viscosity studies to investigate concentrated solutions. The relaxation times at 20°C of the low frequency dispersion have been measured for solutions of 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-hexanol, 1-octanol and 1-decanol in cyclohexane using time domain reflectometry techniques. Similar measurements have also been made on solutions of 1-butanol and 1-octanol in carbon tetrachloride and in benzene. The concentration dependence of the viscosities of certain of these systems has also been examined in an independent study. The ratio of the dielectric relaxation time to the viscosity, the "reduced relaxation time", is qualitatively similar for each system studied. This similarity leads to an explanation of the molecular process responsible for the low frequency dispersion in terms of the proximity of the hydroxyl groups in concentrated alcohol solutions and the fraction of the groups which are not involved in hydrogen bonding.

A holy people: a study in the ecclesiology of Andrew Murray

- Description: The thesis seeks to show Andrew Murray's growing understanding of what it meant to be the elect of God in contrast to other prevailing notions. In his confrontation with the Trekker communities, the majority of whom were rigid Calvinists, stressing a divine election based on the notions of biological and cultural identity, Murray found little of the holy behaviour which ought to characterize the people of God. The elect should be seen to be the elect by their fruits. Instead there was divisiveness, discrimination, party spirit and other forms of ungodliness. Faced with the immensity of the task in identifying the true Church and building God's people up in holiness, Murray began to sense the necessity of another 'dimension' within the Church's regular means of grace of preaching, the sacraments, and discipline. The revival of 1860, focussed Murray's attention in a new and vital way on the work of the Holy Spirit in breathing new life into the Church and in empowering believers to live lives pleasing to God. The 'indiscriminate' effects of the Holy Spirit's work convinced Murray that the Gospel and thus the Church was not the possession of the white colonist, Dutch or English, but that the black and brown man had an equal claim on the Gospel and as much right to become a member of Christ's Church. Murray's understanding of the Christian life as continual abiding in Christ by the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit meant that the believer came to have the mind of Christ and to partake of His holiness. This holiness evidenced itself in the believer having Christ's concern for the lost. Mission, therefore, became this supreme end of the Church. The struggle with the forces of liberalism raised the new issue that unbelievers could no longer be simply 'heathen blacks' or English but most of all Dutch. The support of the civil courts of those disciplined by the Church brought the whole problem of ecclesiology to the fore and led Murray to the conclusion of the necessary separation of the Church from the State. Murray's discovery that in various ages, nations and Church traditions there were those with the same passionate desire for God' s holiness, led him into an increasing awareness of the catholicity of the Church. True holiness demanded the love and unity of all God's children. Murray's ecclesiology was a biblically-based one at a time when communities were beginning to be formed by other than biblical notions and principles and by a people who were trying to pack more into the notion of a people of God than Scripture gave warrant for. The emphasis for which Murray stood made for an ecclesiology that simply could not be confined.

- Description: Serious efforts must be made to combat the high accident rate on the roads in the Republic of South Africa. The same spirit which exists in the field of medicine when there are evidences that an epidemic is beginning to take its toll, must come into being amongst those who are concerned with traffic and its problems. The public itself needs to become more aware of road safety. Many associations and institutions have been created to assist with the inculcation of the road safety ideal. The National Road Safety Council, which creates opportunities for investigation into aspects of road safety must continue to expand its sphere of influence. The research project contained on the following pages represents an attempt to contribute to the human factor in traffic safety, particularly by making a closer study of the driver of the motor vehicle. The writer is concerned with the carnage that is caused by road accidents. His previous study of personality and particularly of the projective techniques of assessment has prompted a consideration of the problem.
