  • Description: This working paper covers a survey conducted between 16 and 30 January 1980 of 3 171 black Sub A and Sub B pupils 8 years old or younger, at schools in both the rural and urban areas of the Albany Magisterial District, Eastern Cape. The survey, under the auspices of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER), Rhodes University, was carried out as a result of a request from Dr J. D. Krynauw, Regional Director of Health Services in the Eastern Cape, to assess levels of nutrition of black children. Newspaper reports (see Appendix 1) of low levels of nutrition and high infant mortality rates among young black children in the Eastern Cape appeared to suggest a chronic nutritional situation, a situation not perceived as such by the Department of Health. A comprehensive pilot study was instituted on written request from Dr Krynauw in late October 1979. A report of the pilot study findings was presented in May 1980 to the Department of Health (Fincham, 1980). The present paper elaborates on that report and also includes analyses of data not presented before. , Digitised by Rhodes University Library on behalf of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)

An investigation into the influence of the physical distribution concept on the performance of certain South African manufacturers of consumer products

- Staude, G E

  • Authors: Staude, G E

  • Description: The "Physical Distribution Concept" is being increasingly recognised as a vitally important business philosophy for those firms for which efficient physical distribution is critical to marketing success. Manufacturers of products which are perishable, easily substitutable; and/or quickly obsolescent are some which fall into this category. In a competitive business environment, factors such as the " availability" of the product, and not simply its price or quality, begin to exert a significant influence on the purchasing decision. The "Physical Distribution Concept" comprises three elements, namely, consumer orientation; organizational integration and profit orientation. "Physical Distribution Orientation" refers to the predisposition of the firm and its employees to these three elements. For the Physical Distribution Concept to serve as an effective guide to management action, a physical distribution orientation on the part of all those concerned with marketing and physical distribution-related activities in a firm, is a pre-requisite. The chief executive, in particular, should adhere to this business philosophy, regardless of the functional route he followed to his position. In his leadership role, theory holds that he exerts considerable influence on his subordinates, and consequently on his firm's way of doing business. This thesis is concerned with an analysis of the Physical Distribution Concept. It focuses on the chief executives of firms manufacturing consumer convenience goods, as well as consumer shopping goods. As such, it is primarily concerned with determining the extent to which the chief executives are physical distribution oriented and whether there is a statistically significant relationship between their extent of physical distribution orientation and their companies' performance. The thesis is also concerned with the extent to which any pattern of organizational arr angements for physical distribution exists.

An investigation into the nature and function of prescribed literature in schools and a comparative study of the required reading in English literature in school syllabuses in South Africa, Rhodesia and the ex-High Commission Territories from 1945-1980

  • Description: From preface: The original purpose of this thesis was to make a comparative study of all the English literature which had been prescribed from 1945 to 1980 for study by all high school pupils in the Republic of South Africa, Zimbabwe and the ex-High Commission Territories. This proved to be a formidable task. However, most of the material collected, including all the individual poems prescribed, was recorded in table form. This proved too bulky a system for comparative purposes and the field was narrowed to include only that English literature which had been prescribed for candidates writing Matriculation or Senior Certificate examinations on the higher grade as part of the English Language syllabus. From time to time, however, reference will be made in this thesis to prescriptions for the lower grades and for the lower standards.

Aspects of the biology of Caffrogobius Caffer (Günter) (Pisces : Teleostei : Gobiidae) in the Eastern Cape

  • Authors: Butler, Graham Stuart
  • Date: 1981
  • Subjects: Osteichthyes -- South Africa -- Eastern Cape

  • Description: Several strategies used by the gobiid fish Caffrogobius caffer enabling it to colonise the harsh intertidal environment in the eastern Cape were studied. Q. caffer is opportunistic in its use of available food resources and feeds throughout the day with a slight tendency towards crepuscular peaks of feeding activity. The system of space utilisation used by C. caffer is so organised that all individuals of the population have access to patchily distributed food resources. Current velocities occurring over high tide limit the movements of Qo caffer and interpool movements occur only during the initial stages of a rising tide and in the final stages of an ebbing tide when the current velocities are below the tolerance limit of Q. caffer. The epifauna associated with the alga Ulva rigida, which forms an important constituent of the diet of the intermediate size classes of Q. caffer, was examined and it appears that this epifauna is an important source of food to Q. caffer. This report presents the results of the first detailed study of the biology of an intertidal fish in southern Africa.

Bailie's party of 1820 settlers

  • Description: From preface: This study of the British settlers of 1820 in South Africa uses one party of emigrants as a unit of historical research. In unfolding their story, it attempts to discover how far the standard assumptions about the 1820 settlement are borne out by the historical facts. No systematic set of hypotheses for investigation was established in advance; instead, the structure of the thesis has been determined by the course of the narrative, and the main issues have emerged spontaneously as it has progressed. Although the chronology has been maintained as far as possible, the narrative itself does not follow an entirely straightforward course. The emigrant party of eighty-four men and their families under the leadership of John Bailie which is the subject of the study was officially subdivided five weeks after landing at Algoa Bay, and the dispersal of its members to the established towns of the colony began even sooner. At the end of the three-year period laid down as a residential qualification by Government, less than a third remained to claim land on the party's location in Albany.

Black and white women: a socio-historical study of domestic workers and their employers in the Eastern Cape

- Cock, Jacklyn

  • Authors: Cock, Jacklyn
  • Date: 1981

  • Language: English

  • Identifier: vital:3287 , http://hdl.handle.net/10962/d1003075
  • Description: Domestic service constitutes one of the largest sources of employment for black women in South Africa. Yet it is a largely unstudied occupation. There has been no previous investigation of domestic workers in the Eastern Cape, and to date only two comprehensive studies of domestic workers in other areas of South Africa. This neglect is significant, for such inquiry involves questioning the accepted pattern of inequalities on which the entire social order is based.
