Most Enduring Aids Called Least Apparent
Page 3
"The most enduring contributions of a library to an observance like the Kansas Territorial Centennial may be those least apparent to the public," Robert Vosper, director of libraries, said today.
The University library provided special exhibits in Lawrence and materials for traveling displays, particularly the display of early Kansas photographs from the J. J. Pennell collection and the loan of the Old Sacramento cannon for the traveling railroad car museum. It also served as headquarters for the Governor's Centennial committee.
"But in keeping with the library's basic function is the fact that several important books have been prepared in the past year by University scholars who have used our collections as source material." Mr. Vosper said.
These books include "The Nebraska Question 1852-54" by Dr. James C. Malin, professor of history; "Artists and Illustrators of the Old West, 1850-1900" by Dr. Robert Taft, professor of chemistry; "Free State Fortress" by Allen Crafton, professor of speech, and "Snow of Kansas" by Clyde K. Hyder, professor of English.
At least two other volumes soon will be published. Mr. Vosper added. These are a new addition of "Through the Years on Mount Oread," the University's history, by Dr. Taft, and a collected volume of Kansas historical studies.
A course in "Industrial and Occupational Medicine in Town and Country" will be conducted at the Center in Kansas City Dec. 6-8.
One day will be devoted to occupational hazards, another to poisonings, dermatitis and dust, and the third to trauma and surgery.
New Medical Course Set
The constant increases in the variety and complexity of mechanical equipment and of chemical compounds used on the farm, around the home, on highways and in small businesses, as well as in large industries, necessitates that agricultural and urban areas engage more more in the practice of industrial medicine," H. G, Ingham, executive director of the school's extension program, said.
The plans for the course were made by the joint committee of the Council on Industrial Health of the American Medical society, the American Academy of General Practice, and the Industrial Medical association.

Business Seniors Await Accounting Internships
Display Shown OnAboriginals
An australoid people of medium height, with slender limbs, wide nostrils and a long head, the aborigines exist in about 680 tribes, containing 200 to 700 members, which are scattered mainly throughout central Australia.
The most comprehensive display of Australian aboriginal culture ever assembled will be at the Museum of Natural History until Dec. 14.
The aborigines are semi-nomadic hunters, fishermen, and collectors of food. They are essentially Stoneage people, using crude stone tools and wooden, shell, bone, and teeth implements.
The exhibition, which took three years to prepare, was assembled by the Australian UNESCO committee for Museums to acquaint viewers with aboriginal ways of life.
The exhibit contains a description and examples of nearly every phase of the aboriginal culture, ranging all the way from their possible origin through tribal procedures to their customs for old age and death.
The students will work for the six weeks' period with public accounting firms in Kansas and Kansas City, Mo. Thirteen public accounting firms in seven cities will use the group. Their school work has been planned to permit them to be absent from the campus for this period.
> Seventeen business school seniors will begin an internship program in accounting Dec. 27-Feb. 5, the first of its kind in Kansas.
Hillel Group Plans Dinner
They will observe internal operations and accounting procedure of established businesses, relate academic training to actual business practices, determine more definitely their interests in accounting as a vocation, and gain information concerning specific public accounting firms which they may be considering for future employment.
The B'nai B'rith Hillel foundation will hold a dinner at 6:30 p.m. Friday at the Castle Tea room, 13d and Massachusetts streets.
"While the internship idea is not new in accounting schools of the nation, the program at KU is the first in Kansas of its type," Wiley Mitchell, associate professor of accounting, said.
The internees' assignments will correspond roughly to those of beginning junior accountants. In addition to the academic credit being given, the students will be paid for their work on a reduced scale.
900 Have Taken Influenza Shots
Only 900 students and faculty members have taken advantage of the free influenza shots at Watkins hospital this fall. There are approximately 7,500 students, faculty, and employees of the University who are entitled to receive the shots.
