Humanities Talk On Forgotten Hero
Following weeks of gridiron bowl games in which modern valiant helmeted warriors competed on 21-inch screens, the Humanities Lecture Series at the University of Kansas will present on Tuesday, January 9, the story of a hero of Greek mythology. The lecture, "A Forgotten hero—Development and Decay of a Greek Myth," will be given by Mary A. Grant, KU emeritus associate professor of Latin and Greek. Following the lecture at 8 p.m. in Fraser Theater, an informal reception for Miss Grant will be held in the Faculty Club.
"Miss Grant chooses not to reveal in advance the identity of the mythical character," explained Prof. Elmer F. Beth, chairman of the Humanities committee, "but I can say that he is a relative of one of the foremost warriors in Greek mythology, a god who was an inspiration to Greek youths."
MISS GRANT will be the 14th KU scholar to be presented on the Humanities Lecture Series since the tradition was started in 1948. For years, she taught courses in Greek and Roman mythology here. Last year, the University of Kansas Press issued her latest work, "The Myths of Hyginus," which included the only English translation of a Latin text, "Fabulae," now out of print. She also is the author of articles and reviews in classical literature periodicals. She has had poems and narrative sketches published in Atlantic Monthly, Kansas Magazine, and
Hospital Renews Flu Shot Appeal
With confirmed outbreaks of influenza in several areas of the United States, including St. Louis, a renewed appeal has been issued by Watkins Memorial Hospital for KU students to obtain a flu immunization shot.
Dr. Ralph I. Canuteson, hospital administrator, estimates there are between 5,000 and 6,000 students who still have not received an influenza shot.
The hospital administrator said there have been several suspected cases of the flu at the hospital. Thus far, all have tested negative, however.
With the extensive travel that many students and faculty members did over the holiday, it is a certainty some will have been exposed to the disease.
Dr. Canuteson said the hospital will give the shots as rapidly as possible. Without a high percentage of students and faculty protected, Dr. Canuteson said, there is a strong likelihood there will be flu on the campus.
Spirit magazine. She was for years curator of Wilcox Museum in Fraser Hall.
After receiving the Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin in 1919, she taught Latin at Western College for Women in Oxford, Ohio; in 1921, she was appointed to the KU faculty and taught until her retirement last year.
She held a fellowship at Bryn Mawr and a traveling fellowship from Wisconsin to the American Academy in Rome. She studied one summer at the American School in Athens, Greece, and she has taken six trips to Italy, Greece, and the Near East. She is a native Kansas; both her B.A. and M.A. were earned at the University of Kansas.
CLIFFORD OSBORNE, professor of philosophy, was the first KU scholar to give a Humanities lecture (in 1948). Since then, in order, the KU speakers have been: John Hankins, professor of English; the late Charles Realy, professor of history; Dr. William Shoemaker, Romance languages; Dean Frederick Moreau, law; Allen Crafton, professor emeritus of drama; Dr. George Anderson, professor of history; J. Neale Carman, professor of Romance languages; L. R. Lind, professor of Latin and Greek; Dean M. Carl Slough, law; Dr. William D. Paden, professor of English; Jan Chapiusso, professor emeritus of piano; and Chancellor W. Clarke Wescoe.

Bubb Named To Regents
Henry A. Bubb, president of the Topeka Capitol Federal Savings and Loan Association and former KU stu dent, was appointed to the Kansas Board of Regents Dec. 29.
The 54-year-old businessman attended KU the Spring semester of 1925, the Spring semester of 1926 and the Fall semester of 1926. He then dropped out of the University.
There was a Democratic majority on the board for the first time in history during the Docking administration.
Having a Party?
The appointment was made by Gov. John Anderson. Mr. Bubb assumed his duties Monday and will serve a four year term.
THE LAW REQUIRES that the membership of the board be divided between the two major parties on a 5-4 basis. The appointment of Mr. Bubb returns control of the board to the Republicans.

MR. BUBB was appointed chairman of the United States Savings and Loan League's legislative committee for the eighth successive year. He will direct the national legislative program for the $80 billion savings and loan business in this position.
He has served on several organizations connected with KU. He is a trustee of the Endowment Association and served on the Athletic Board from 1953 to 1956. He is also a past national chairman of the Alumni Association.
Whitley Austin, publisher of the Salina Journal, was reappointed to the Board of Regents. He is currently chairman of the Board of Regents.
Mr. Bubb replaces Russell R. Rust of Topeka, whose term on the board expired Sunday.
One other term, that of George B. Collins, a Wichita Democrat, also expired Sunday. Since Mr. Bubb's appointment placed five Republicans on the board, Mr. Collins' successor must be a Democrat, but Gov. Anderson said he had not yet decided who will fill this position on the board.
