The Greek Art and Archaeology course was begun at the University this semester and is open to freshmen and sophomores.
Four students in Greek Art and Archaeology listen while Miss Mary Grant, associate professor of Latin and Greek, points out the significance of a plaster cast of Ceasar Augustus, one of the first contributions to the Wilcox museum in Fraser hall. The cast is a replica of a marble one which was carved about 20 B.C. Color was added to the cast a few years ago by Bernard "Poco" Frazier, former fine arts instructor.

Greek And Roman Museum Serves As Art Laboratory
A relatively unknown collection of Greek and Roman classical art is housed in the Wilcox museum on the second floor in the south wing of Fraser hall.
The museum is used as a laboratory for a freshman-sophomore course, Greek Art and Archaeology, begun this semester at the University. The course is taught by Miss Mary Grant, associate professor of Latin and Greek and curator of the museum.
Wilcox museum contains casts of Greek and Roman sculpture, photographs, books, and other antiquities. Most of the relics were purchased from the Italian government in 1909. They were put on the market to raise money for victims of the earthquake disaster at Messina, Italy, in 1905. Miss Grant explained that the genuine relics are now worth many times more than the price originally paid for them.
Established in 1886.in connection with the Latin and Greek departments, the museum was named in honor of professor A.M. Wilcox, head of the Greek department at KU.for over 40 years. It was first opened in the north wing of Fraser hall, but in 1888 was moved to the south wing.
As the old Greek story goes, if a warrior was wounded in battle, and the gods healed the wound the fighter would have a small model cast of that part of the injured section made and offer it to the gods at the temple. Archaeologists have uncovered several pits in which these relics have been found.
Busts of famous Greek and Roman persons show the contrast between Greek idealism and Roman realism. The relative importance of women in the two civilizations is indicated by many portraits of the Roman women.
Explanatory pamphlets about the museum are available upon request the office of the Latin and Greek department.

Believe it or not, those are the approximate ingredients used daily by the Union cooking staff. Two cooks, Miss Marsha Carter and Miss Ethel Sweeter, are kept busy mixing and baking each day from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. turning out the rolls that are used in the Palm room, at the fountain, and for special parties. Between 50 and 75 dozen are sold each day.

"We have been unable to supply the demand so far," said Mrs. Jack Tinning, director of the Palm room.
If you are planning refreshments for a small party, here is just the thing. Take one mixing bowl—add 75 pounds of flour, 4 to 5 dozen eggs, 40 pounds of sugar, and a banana or cinnamon. Shape into small swirls, bake, and you have 900 homemade cinnamon rolls like those which have become so popular at the Union this year. The recipe is easily doubled for larger parties.
