The Architectural League of New
York, now thirty-slX years old, has
made a new departure in arranging its
IN rty-second annual exhibition, which
opened yesterday at 2l5 West Fifty
seventh Street.
The exhibition differs from those
OF previous years in that the exhibits
are not segregated, with architecture
only in the large north gallery. Sculpt-
ure, painting and craftsmanship are
all 20 be found on the same walls
with architecture. resulting in pleas
ing variety and a color interest that
has been lacking heretofore.
An added attraction now is series
OF fountains and running brooks,
with rustic bridges and lockwood
hedges connecting the three principal
galleries. This feature and most OF
the new arrangements have been un-
der SEE supervision OF II. Van Buren,
McGoaigle.
At the entrance 20 the building has
been erected a model in staff Of Robert
Athens heroic figure Peace tho
original of which is 20 be erected by
the citizens Of New Britain, Conn, as
a memorial 20 Elhu Burritt, an apostle
of peace, untiring worker for the es-
Enlistment Of international arbitra-
ton and universal brotherhood, who
delivered $50 addresses on the sub
ject of ocean penny postage, resulting
in its partial adoption.
The features in the Vanderbilt Gal
lery include the model of the group
By Evelyn B. Longman for the Allison
monument at Des Moines, Iowa;
large canvas by Arthur Crisp entitled
L 81, - H.sh
