SHE'S AN ARTIST AT 13

LONDON, July 22.-London art crit ics express astonishment over the drawings now being exhibited at the Leicester Galleries by 13-year-old girl, Pamela Blanco. She was born in England and now lives in Italy.

Already, the critics say, she has a strongly marked individual ity which is revealed in all her work. A large freize and two large decora- tive female heads are among her pie lures on exhibit. Her power of de- sign on a large scale is regarded as remarkable. Another picture of hers is of a children's peace celebration, and the expression of the children's faces is so good that the experts are amazed
