NEW YORK, June IL (NANAD
AT Cooperstown today the bands
play, the flags fly, the boys march
and honor is paid to great names
of baseball. Meanwhile, along both
major league fronts, some great
names have fallen this spring
names that some day may be posted

are that they never again will be
seen in major league box score
l don't remember a spring when
the casualties among the great were
heavier.
On the casualty list, with less
than two full months of the season
gone, are four of the greatest play
ers the game has known in the last
decade-Lou Gehrig, Tony Lazzeri,
Wes Ferrell and Heinie Manush.
Gehrig withdrew from first base
for a rest after IA years of contin-
uous play. He had started the sea-
son hopefully. but his inability to
come out of the slump into which
he had fallen as soon as the train
ing season started wore him down,
frayed his nerves and drove him to
the dugout.

Boston, and the Brooklyn Museum
have been especially rich in water
colors by Homer. This gift by Mr..
and Mrs. Woodward now puts the
Philadelphia Museum in the same
class. The group is said to be about
equally divided between subjects
done in the West Indies and Cuba
and scenes on the coast of Maine.
Homer, more than any other, set
the pace in the development of
water color which has now placed
it on a parity with that in oil.
In the Philadelphia group the water
colors by Homer will henceforth be
hung in gallery adjacent to that
containing works in oil by Thomas
Eakins, who is, it has been truly
said, likewise one of "the greatest
ornaments of the American school
of painting"
Eakins is represented in the cur
rent exhibition of the Museum of
Modern Art Gallery of Washington
as we'll as in the Phillips Memorial
Gallery and the Corcoran Gallery
of Art. The last named institution
has an exceptionally good water
color by Homer, as well as an oil
painting, and the National Collec-
ton of Fine Arts is so fortunate as
to possess his masterpiece. High

Visit of the Mistress" Hawthorne

At present there is a members show

there is naturally more uniform

always more cheerfulness. The

Young Washington Painters
PreDie1D Exhibition in the


Whyte Gallery Announced.
The Whyte Gallery at 17O7 H

pre-view of an exhibition of the
works of young Washington Paint
ers" who formerly exhibited at

Phillips Memorial Gallery. The
word young" does not, in this in
stance, signify youth, nor by any
means, immaturity, but rather
those who in the past few years
have come into prominence largely
through encouragement given them
by Mr.. Phillips and his associates.
The list of exhibitors will include
Herman Maril (who, by the way, is
a Baltimorian), Nicolai Cikovsky, C..
Law Watkins director of Studio
House gallery and art school, Ber-
nice Cross, Mary Bradley, Margaret
Gates, Alice Acheson, Julia Eckel,
John Gernaud, Edward Rosenfeld,
Olin Dows, Elisabeth Ellicott Poe,
Paul Ault, Prentiss Taylor, Mary
Elizabeth Partridge, Marjorie Phil

head of the Division of Fine Arts of
the Treasury Department, organizer
of the P. w. A. P, and, during its
regime director.

lowed Leibl, not at a distance, but
very closely.
Currier never made the reputation
for himself here that Duveneck did,
and those who saw his name for the
first time, here on the list Of artists
represented, quite naturally confused
him with the photographer, Nathan
iel, who was a great maker of prints
for the public, which of late have
renewed their vogue. Currier, as
associated with Ives, is far better
known today than he of the same
name, who is quite properly repre-
sented in this exhibition as one of
the best of our American painters
of the past. On so slender thread
does fame hang.
With regard to Sargent the diff
Guilty of Identification lay in the fact
that he was, and still is, outstanding
as painter of portraits, while here
he is represented by two canvases,
undoubtedly painted purely for his
own pleasure, not on order-one an
interior, The Stair Case" and the
other limpid pool at "Val d'Aosta"
with stepping stones.
The unmistakable works were such
as "Salutat" by Thomas Eakins, lent
by the Addison Gallery of American
Art, Phillips Academy, Andover; the
Virginia Interior" and Flowers" by
Carl Melchers, lent by Mrs. Melch-
ers; the Portrait of Mrs. Walter
Sickert" by Whistler; the boy, Fish
and Bottle" by Hawthorne; the still
life by Carlsen and "The Umbrian
Hills by Davies.
Peculiarly charming are Havana
1885," by Childe Hassam, and
Shell Beach, Shinnecock," by Will
liam M. Chase, both of which are not
only characteristic, but in their way
supreme examples.
It is rather nice to have the cat
out of the bag and once again be
able to refer to these paintings by
name and in association with the
artists by whom they were created.
They will remain on view for an
other fortnight, during which the
regular system Of free and pay days

Since the cinema learned to talk,
living actors must use appropriate
words. But Mr.. Disney is under
no such compulsion; the voices of
his mice, dogs, ducks and all have
no more connection with their
mouths than had the captions in
the silent films. Hence, it would
seem that the artist deserves a

International Exhibition.
The Brooklyn Museum is now

The majority of the Americans
listed as exhibitors in this impor-

is, therefore, noteworthy to find in
