British Sculptor Finds
Faces More Classical, Intel
Iigent Than Fifty
Years Ago.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
LONDON, June 29-rPeople may
not be getting better as the world
goes on, but they are getting bet
ter looking, artists and scientists
agreed IN symposium.
"a darker and more composite
type has taken the place of the
clear Anglo-Saxon face" said Henry
Pegram, R. A., famous sculptor.
"Fa today are much more alert
and .lobile than they were fifty
years ago. Not only are both men
and women better looking, but also
their faces are much more interest
ing, owing to the greater mixture OF
types.
Faces Classical
Particularly among women are
there many more classical features
much more so than in Greece it
self, ancient or modern. There are
especially very fine heads among the
athletes of this generation"
Professor H. j. FleuFe, anthro-
pologist of the University of Wales,
agreed on behalf Of the scientists.
1.-The contours of the modern face
are less smooth than those of the
past" he said, due, perhaps, to the
effects Of fresh air and athletic
habits.
Not More Nervous
There is more character in faces
today, more development Of bone
and muscle in them. This has
made for more handsome features.
ut is generally thought that the
faces Of this generation have more
nervous and intense look. Gener-
ally that is not correct. They ex-
press increased intellectual interest
and testify to the spread of edu-
cation"
