Gainford P. "Gub" Mix (October 15, 1876 – June 28, 1944) was a Democratic politician and farmer from Idaho. He served as the state's 19th and 21st lieutenant governor. Born in Grand Island, Nebraska, Mix came by wagon to north central Idaho as a child with his family of twelve in 1883. His parents, Franklin E. Mix (1838–1919) and Mary Grimes Mix (1841–1904), settled in the Palouse region, near Moscow.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Find a Grave )〕 A portion of the family's farm at the west end of Moscow is now the Palouse Mall.〔 Mix was the first student at the University of Idaho in Moscow in October 1892, starting at its prep school as a teenager.〔 He was the first graduate of the College of Agriculture in 1901, a quarterback on the football team,〔 and later its graduate manager. Mix was elected to two two-year terms as lieutenant governor, in 1930 and 1934, both with Governor C. Ben Ross. He ran for the U.S. Senate in 1932, but was defeated in the primary by James Pope, the mayor of Boise. ==Personal== Mix married Maude Gale (1882–1965) in 1901 and they had five children, four sons (Gale, John, Leslie, and Gainford W.) and a daughter (Mrs. Hal Price).〔 The eldest, Gale (1902–1971), was the athletic director at the University of Idaho from 1950 to 1954. He coached at Moscow High School in the early 1930s, and was a longtime university employee. Gainford W. Mix (1911–2000), earned a degree in agriculture from the UI and ran the family farm after his father's death. He also managed the Federal Land Bank in Moscow from 1959 to 1974.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「G. P. Mix」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
