Fine Arts Guild Exhibition of Student Endeavor Opens

Budding genius runs riot in the Fine Arts Guild today, as an exhibition of student talent in photography, oil painting, water colors, and drawing opens. Cash prizes will be awarded in each of these fields.

This exhibition is characterized by the numerous ideas which it has to offer. One contributor, working under the pseudonym of Melearth, has mixed sand in his paint, and, in representing flowers, has applied gobs of paint directly from the tube.

Another artist, a true follower of the modern impressionistic school, handed in a few pictures which, at first, baffled members of the Guild as to which side was up. Luckily, the signature was legible, providing a clue.

Vincent Palmer '35, Art Editor of the Lampoon last year, has sent several contributions from Nonsuch Island, where he is working with Dr. Beebe. Besides colored drawings of Dr. Beebe's new home, there is a pen and ink drawing of a hand crumpling a piece of paper, sketched in Palmer's old Lampoon style.
