While the m ost advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon th e quality of the original submitted.The following explanation of techniques is provided to h elp you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction.1 .T h e sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)".If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages.This may have necessitated cutting thru an image an d duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity.2. When an image on die film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected th a t the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame.3. When a map, drawing o r chart, etc., was p a rt o f the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite m ethod in "sectioning" the material.It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap.If necessary, sectioning is continued again -beginning below the first row an d continuing on until complete.4. The majority of users indicate th at the textual c o n te n t is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding o f th e dissertation.Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog num ber, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced.
