DESIGN COMPETITION ENDS

Drawings to be entered in the annual competition for the Toplarian Club Trophy are due at the office of the Graduate School of Landscape Architecture in Robinson Hall this evening at 6 o'clock. Sixteen members of the Landscape Architecture courses 2 and 3 have entered. On a date which will be announced soon, a jury consisting of Professor J. S. Pray '95, Professor H. V. Hubbard '97, and a well known landscape designer who has no connection with the University, will judge the drawings and will award first, second and third places. The winner will have his name inscribed on the trophy and will have possession of it until the competition next year.

The competition is a problem in landscape design. This year the competitors have been furnished with topographic maps of a given piece of property supposed to be along the Charles River. On the assumption that a benefactor has given money to the Topiarian Club, of which men in the Landscape Architectural School are the members, for a small country club, the plans submitted are to include a garden and an experimental growth of plants, a boat house for canoes, and tennis courts, as well as other arrangements for the pleasure of the members of the club.

This is the tenth competition for the trophy which was given by an unknown donor in the spring of 1912. H. J. Walker, G. L. A. '20, who has since been doing town planning work in France with the Harvard Reconstruction Unit, won the competition last January.
