CLEVER EASTERN GIRL

Miss Elizabeth Waggoner Will Be in
Charge of New Department at
University of Southern
California Branch
Miss ELIZABETH WAGGONER,
N recently of the Chicago Art in

Miss ELIZABETH WAGGONER,
N recently of the Chicago Art in
A'A stitute was the guest of honor
at a reception and tea at the college
of fine arts, L. S. c., yesterday after
noon, Dean Judson is installing de-
partment of arts and crafts and has
induced Miss Waggoner to leave her
work in Chicago and take charge OF
this department at the beautiful school
on the bank of the arroyo.
The large reception room ana picture
gallery were devoted yesterday 10 an
exhibit of many of Miss Waggoners S
creations. Her metal work is perhaps
the most interesting at first sight, Tor
the rich tones of copper and brass are
always extremely alluring to the eye.
She has designed some most unique
pieces and finds a comprehensive held
for her labors. Her exhibits in the
metal work alone include candlesticks,
book racks, nut and fruit bowls, spoons
and ladies, and trays of various size
and design.
Another interesting field of the arts
and crafts work in which Miss Wag-
goner is successful is in that OF pottery.
This is a branch in which she expects
to do considerable teaching this COM
ing winter, as the college of fine arts
possesses exceptional facilities for the
moulding and firing of the vases, boWls,
candlesticks and many other articles
which lend themselves so effectively to
the work of the potter.
Wood block engraving, stencil work
and leather work were also represented
in the groups of artistic and useful
objects with which the tables and
shelves of the gallery were decorated,
and in each department Miss Wagon
er has introduced an individual note
which gives. her work distinction.
Miss Waggoner has been in close
contact with the best artistic atmos-
phere of Chicago for the past four
years is a member of the Art students
league and will bring fresh inspira-
ton and a strong and magnetic per-
sonality to the classes under her tut
tion as we'll as to the entire work OF
the college.
Mrs. Nell Dareley Brooker, who is a
new member of Dean Judson's faculty.
assisted in receiving the guests yester-
dav afternoon, and showed a line of
color etchings which attracted particu-
lar interest.
