Muralist Poor
Takes Vacation
• Henry Varnum Poor's "vaca
tion" from the College Land
Grant mural is in the nature of a
busman's holiday.'
Poor, aided by his daughter
Anne, who assisted him with the
original section of the College
fresco, is depicting Kentucky life
in a mural, 45 feet long by 14 feet
high, in the Courier - Journal
Building.
Poor started on the new work
May 3 and will complete it next
week. In preparation for the task
he travelled through a large part
of Kentucky studying people and
countryside, reading history and
absorbing what he could of native
information.
Shortly after Poor began work
the Courier-Journal Magazine, a
Stmday supplement, featured him,
Anne, and his work with a cover
color photograph, a biography, a
description of his methods, and six
illustrations of his art.
Referring to his work at the
College, the article says, "He has
been most recently working on
two matching panels for the
Pennsylvania State College, 'The
Land Grant Mural.' This is .a par
ticularly interesting assignment
for the students themselves raised
the money as their class . . gifts
and when the first fresco was fin
ished undergraduates liked it so
well they pledged enough in ad
vance to insure a second. This
