14 The Scholastic § Head of Art Galleries Finds Rare Painting "The most important find at an American auction in more than a quar­ ter century!"

For $1,200, Dr. Maurice H. Gold­ blatt, director of the art galleries at fi^ Notre Dame, purchased a painting now estimated as being worth as much as $100,000 at a New York auction on the basis of a photo of the work in the auction catalogue.

The painting, "Madonna and Child," was acquired by Dr. Goldblatt for a Chicago lawyer and art collector, Bailey Stanton, at the Parke-Bernet auction gallery in New York last Nov. 16.
