Visits Home in New Glarus Herbert Kubly Recalls Greece
Herbert Kubly of New Glarus nears the end of a six week visit home and plans to return to his English professorship at San Francisco State College. He spent ten months in Greece gathering material for a Holiday magazine piece and a book length story. He met the King, spoke with the Queen Mother, and noted Greece as a troubled country with political tensions. Kubly gathered notes on Greek life from Athens to the islands, observing hospitality and the mixed reactions to American policy and Kennedy's popularity, and he found many Greeks studying English locally. He will resume teaching duties and continue refining his notes for publication after a brief home stay.
