In a large bowl dissolve yeast in warm water with 1 t. sugar.  Add milk,
butter, salt, remaining sugar, eggs and 3 c. flour; beat until smooth.
Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.  Turn out onto a
floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes,
adding additional flour as needed.  Place in a greased bowl, turning
once to grease top.  Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled

board.  Divide dough in half.  Divide each half into 12 pieces.  Shape
each piece into a ball; place in two greased 13x9 inch pans.  Cover and let 
rise  until doubled about 30 minutes.  Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes
or until golden brown. Lightly brush with melted butter if desired and 
serve warm.   Yield--2 dozen      2 hours. 15 minutes to make.
