An opportunity to taste appealing foods and buy their recipes is scheduled from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Tuesday, July 27, in the atrium of the Faculty Administration Building at Wayne State University.

Members of the President's Commission on the Status of Women will offer special dishes from their COSW Cookbook, which will be on sale.

Commission members and friends, who have recipes in the cookbook, will prepare their foods for tasting. Each dish will have a place card with the names of the dish and the cook and the page number of the recipe.

Joann Gossman, director of purchasing; Darlene Koper, manager of registrar, records and registration; and Patricia (Pat) Waddell of the President's Office are several COSW friends who will do culinary honors for the occasion.

For a $5 donation guests will receive a wristband, a COSW covered drink cup and can sample any food on display. Those who buy cookbooks at this time can deduct $5 from the $10 price of the first book they purchase.

The fundraiser is planned by the Outreach Committee of the COSW to earn money toward an endowment scholarship for a women athlete. Members of the committee include Chairwoman Grace Hill, President Barbara Roseboro, Gwen Daar, Juliann Binienda, Jane DePreister-Morandini, Marilynn Knall, Adreinne Lim, Merilyn Merkison, Dane Ward, Gwendolyn Shannon, Felecia Grace, Kelli Pugh and Margaret Maday.
