SAN FRANCISCO, Sept IA jury COM
posed of American and foreign architects
has awarded NJ. Bernard the Partisan archi-
tect the first prize in the competition spon-
sored by Mrs. Phoebe Hearst, who offered
prizes for the best plans for new buildings
for the University of California. The ulti-
mate cost of the improvements will reach

all of the expenses of the proposed additions
to the university. NJ. Bernard will receive
premium of $4,000 for his plans in addition
to the customary architects fees for the
superintendence of the construction of the
buildings, this emolument amounting in the
aggregate to a handsome fortune. The de-
cision of the jury awarding the palm to the
French architect was unanimous
The competition was begun two years ago
and has already cost Mrs. Hearst about
$4,000 The architects of the world We're
invited to send plans, and about twelve
weeks ago these, to the number of 10, were
opened at Antwerp. After examination by
a committee of experts, eleven of the de-
signs submitted were chosen for the final
test of merit.
The design of the prize-winnner, NJ.
Bernard, who was the architect of some Of
the finest buildings in France preserves all
the natural beauties of the site. Facing the
Golden Gate is the main entrance, opening
into what will be known as fine arts square,
Surrounding which will be located the school
of finance, museum. academy of music,
theater and grand auditorium. Then a long
avenue, which extends through the grounds.
opens out into larger square on the left
side of which will stand a stately structure
to be devoted to the educational depart
ments of the university. In the center OF
this square will be the administration build
ing and at the rear the college OF agricul-
ture.
The campus fronts the main building and
on each side are to be dormitories. The
athletic grounds come farther on, faced by
a magnificent gymnasium very ornate in
design with tribunes for spectators of sports
In front and at either end. One still higher
level viii be the buildings devoted to science
and natural history and at the summit of
the rising ground the observatory will over
look the whole.
The architecture of all the buildings will
be classic, of the Grecian type, with modern
variations to adapt them to the purposes for
which they are designed. These magnificent
structures as designed will cost between SO
0O0, 900 and SIS, 100000, and the total expendi-
ture required to carry out in Its completion
the idea of erecting the finest educational
equipment in the world will exceed the
larger sum mentioned.
