Aristocratic, Quite A 'Man Of The World'
He may eat two pounds of horse meat a day, but Dubhe von Ace-Darr is still a gentleman.
Each morning after his breakfast of horsemeat, cod liver oil, and eggs, Double comes to K. U. with his roommate, Garvin Hale, College senior. He trots blithely to class and calmly lies on the floor during the lecture. But he's still a gentleman.
He first decided to come to K. U. when he met Garvin in San Francisco last February. Dubhe was living then with an army captain but, after four years at sea, Garvin looked so lonely that Dubhe transferred his affections and accompany-
He's also a cross-country traveler. Eight times he has crossed the United States and once he flew from coast to coast. He has gone swimming in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, in the Great Lakes, and in the Mississippi river.
As for K. U., he likes the University and is a firm believer in higher learning. He has only two objections—each noon, while Garvin eats lunch, he must wait in the car and secondly, library work assigned to Garvin becomes very monotonous for Dubhe.
He is proud, too, of his name which is taken from the pointer or navigation star in the big dipper.
LaShelles Establish Memorial Scholarship
ied the college senior to Kansas. The son of aristocrats, Dubhe is proud of his ancestry. His father was Gallant Ace of Joequin and his mother- Katrina von-Darr. Since he celebrated his first birthday on Nov. 17, and now weighs 65 pounds, he feels that he is living up to family standards. His draft number is *AKZW401*.
A gift of $2,000 has been made to the University Endowment association by Mr. and Mrs. R. J. LaShelle, Junction City, establishing the Daniel LaShelle Memorial scholarship
Mr. and Mrs. LaShelle gave the money in tribute to their son, Capt. Daniel S. LaShelle, who died Jan. 28, 1945 of wounds suffered shortly after the invasion of Luzon, Philippine Islands. The income from the $2,000 will be used for an annual gift scholarship.
While organizing litter bearers to remove wounded men from under enemy fire, he was wounded fatally. The silver star was presented to his widow, Mrs. Anna Jane Hoffman LasShelie, also a former University student.
Who is Dubhe?—He's the brown dog, full blooded German boxer, belonging to Garvin Hale. AKZ401? His pedigree number in the American Kennel club.
Captain LaShelle, '41, was a member of Sigma Chi fraternity. He was one of seven from more than 200 candidates in the 7th corps area to receive regular army commissions. He received the combat infantry-man badge for action in New Guinea.
3,100 'Flu' Shots Given At Watkins
Although KU has over 3,100 students and professors who have taken shots for influenza, there still remains a majority who could receive this health benefit.
"With conditions as crowded as they are, and everyone being susceptible to influenza, the hospital staff is eager to immunize all students." Dr. R. I. Canuteson, director of Watkins hospital, said today.
"Even K-State, which charges 35 cents for its shots, has 1,500 students who have already been inoculated. We are giving our flu shots at no charge and believe more students should be taking advantage of this opportunity." Dr. Camuteson added.

Runner-up honors were taken by John Evans of Idaho with 11, and he was followed by Ray Evans and Wendell Clark of Kansas with eight and seven points, respectively.
Idaho hung on for the opening minutes of the game, and scoring for both sides was low. Both teams missed several shots, and the score stood 5 to 4, Kansas leading, with 11 minutes remaining in the first half.
Schnellbacher and substitute forward Jack Eskridge began to hit, and the Jayhawkers pulled away to a 16-11 halftime lead.
Kansas slowly added to its lead with Evans and Schnellbacher bearing most of the burden. The Jayhawkers led, 36 to 24, at the four-minute intermission.
Kansas came back hot in the second half and piled in seven points before Idaho got started. Clark sank five of his points in the first three minutes after the intermission.
Kansas greatest lead came with a minute to play, as the Jayhawkers pulled up to a 16-point margin on an overhead shot by Bob Van Citters, but an Idaho free brought the margin down to 15.
Coach F. C. Allen substituted liberally during the entire contest, using 18 players. Charles Black, K.L. all-American forward, played only a short time and was held to two free throws.
Idaho was hurt by the loss of Fred "Whimpy" Quinn, star forward who suffered a sprained ankle in the Vandals' game at Georgetown last week.
