Etruscan Works Of Art Now On Display In Wilcox
Cruscan art of the seventh to the fourth centuries B.C. is on display in Wilcox Museum on the second floor of Fraser Hall.
Noted For Bronze
Etruscan pottery, Bucchero ware, and Etruscan bronze statuettes are the principal objects on display.
L. R. Lind, professor of Latin and Greek, who was in Italy for a year on a Fulbright research grant brought back a major share of the displays, which the University purchased.
Etruscan artistry is noted for its myriad works of bronze ingeniously fashioned into vessels, statuettes, and other works of art.
A bronze statuette of Hercules, traditional founder of the Olympian Games, on one of his displays at the Museum. It shows the Etruscans' ability with bronze.
Mr. Lind said the products were found near the small town of Palidoro near Cerveteri, a famous Etruscan sight of Italy.
Terra cotta, a red water based clay, was one of the principal clays used by the Etruscans in making pottery.
Etruscan terra cotta vases, brightly painted with picturesque figures and lamps with designs carved into them are also on display at the museum.
In 1907, Mt. Etna in Sicily broke open and exposed many pieces of Etruscan art that had been entombed for over 20 centuries. These articles were sold throughout the world.
Miss Mary Grant, curator of the museum, said all of the articles of Etruscan art in the museum, other than those brought over by Mr. Lind, were purchased by the University in 1907 from a professor in Rome.
Free Reign In Art
Page 5
The Etruscans allowed themselves free reign in their art. Some of their figures were prim and lifelike while others were without the slightest hint of normal ocn-tour.
A display in the museum of a grotesque figure of a pig in guise of a soldier, with helmet, shield, and spear is evidently an example of an artist who transformed his sense of humor into his work.
One of the major problems holding back the explorers in this field is that at present the Etruscan language has not yet been deciphered. Until the language is understood, the meaning of the Etruscan art will remain a mystery.
The Etruscan empire ended approximately in the third century B.C. when the Romans conquered it.

Army Cadets Prepare For Summer Camp
"Cartoons by Steinberg," an exhibition of 46 uncaptioned drawings by Saul Steinberg, one of America's favorite cartoonists, will be displayed in the hall by the Student Union cafeteria unt Friday, March 30.
Union Displays Steinberg Work
One hundred six Army ROTC students are undergoing special instruction to prepare them for a six week camp at Fort Riley this summer. They will leave Lawrence June 23 and return Aug. 3.
The major subjects concern weapons and tactics. The group, although predominantly juniors, includes 18 seniors who did not go to summer camp last year at Fort Carson, Colo.
Four graduate students, James Sorauf, Milwaukee, Wisc., Thomas Boker, Dallas, Texas, Thomas Ryther, Lawrence, and Robert Miller, Kansas City, Mo., addressed the Geology Club last night on geological problems in Canada, Texas, New Mexico, and Wyoming.
The exhibition was originally prepared by the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and is now being circulated by the American Federation of Arts.
Among the panels included in the exhibition are drawings from Steinberg's "Parade Series," some pictures of cowboys in saloon gun battles, some women gamblers at Las Vegas, long-haired musicians and dancers, scenes in subways and railroad stations, several important-looking documents and assorted portraits of chickens, cats and Hollywood characters.
Four Speak To Geology Club
The cartoons show the work of Steinberg as a fantastic satirist and versatile craftsman.

Television Squint' No Worry For Pearson Hall Residents
Men students at Pearson Scholarship Hall won't have to squint to see the televised National Invitation Tournament basketball finals this Saturday. They have a seven foot TV set with a 52-inch screen to watch.
George Heller, a Kansas City, Mo. businessman, donated the set after visiting the hall last fall. He is the uncle of Robert Crisler, Merriam senior, who lives in the men's dormitory.
"Although the set originally sold

for $2,500, my uncle was able to buy several at a reduced price when the company that manufactured them went out of business," Crisler said. "The sets were made for places such as night clubs where there would be large groups of people."
The set has a five-inch tube and pictures are enlarged to fill the screen as they are reflected to the screen by a mirror.
Miss Martha Peterson, dean of women, has gone to Cincinnati, Ohio, to attend a meeting of the National Association of Deans of Women to be held Wednesday through Sunday. Dean Peterson is a member of the program committee for the event. She will return Monday.
