A standing police court edict
that defendants must appear in

modified Thursday by Police Judge
Joseph Mallory.

lation Of the city's liquor ordi-

SNAPSHOTS Are Shown

Explorers HQH ELhtOttS 6eSL
Entries in National Newspaper
Contest.
A very interesting exhibition is
that of amateur photographs en-
tered in the Newspaper National
Snapshot Competition set forth this
month in Explorers Hall, the Ma
tional Geographic Society. Readers
of The Star and 96 other newspapers
in all parts of the country particl-
pated in the contest, and the dlstrl-
button of prizes, some of which were
very generous, was practically Ma
ton wide. The exhibition comprises
1888 pictures, representing the cream
of more than 100000 sent in, the
majority of which were judged and
shown, first locally and then ma
tionally, by a distinguished jury OF
artists and photo pictorialists.
The pictures were in four classes:
Cd babies and children, CD young
people and adults, 90 scenes and
still-life, and "a animal life. Ar
tistically, from first to last, a re-
markedly high standard is main
tanned. Taken all in all, the sub
:ects rendered are good in compo-
sition, and more notable still is the
admirable handling of the effects
of light and shade and the'illusion
of atmosphere. That human inter-
est would dominate and dramatic
effects appeal to many Of the con-
testants is not surprising, but that,
in many instances, the subtleties OF
beauty and character received even
greater emphasis is and should be
recorded to the honor OF the pic
ture-makers. Also, it may be noted
that these pictorialists, in. almost
every case, selected for interpreta-
ton that which had in it q large
measure OF beauty-rather than
that which 50 many of our painters
of today essay-the ugly and COM
monplace. Here, rather than IN the
painters exhibitions, is to be found
evidence Of an increasing art con-
scioumess. This is the last day
that this exhibition may be seen.

Work Presented to Corcordn
Gallery OF Art.
The Corcoran Gallery of Art has
received, and by its trustees gladly
accepted, an oil painting by Wells
M. Sawyer, formerly of this CITY,
now of Yonkers, N. Y, the gift OF
a group of his Washington friends.
1t is a winter picture painted In
a suburban town, blanketed with
snow-a rather commonplace theme,
but so rendered that 1t has appeal
and charm. 1t is essentially quiet
and in this quietness finds dignity.
Wells Sawyer was born in Iowa
and studied at the Art Institute of
Chicago and here in the old Art
Students League, which had quar-
tiers in the studio building, 808 Sew
enteenth street. He also studied
here under Howard Helmick, who
is, it will be remembered. repre-
sented in the Corcoran Gallery of
Art by a genre painting entitled
The Emigrants Letter" Although
Mr. Sawyer has for good many
years been identified with art activ-
tiles in New York, he has retained
his membership in local art asso-
Citations, such as the Society of
Washington Artists, with which he
has exhibited regularly, as we'll as
with the Washington Water Color
Club.

his water colors, made in Spain,

Calfee Works Shown at Studio Gallery
Current OneMan Exhibit Includes Eight
Paintings and Six Large Drawings

William H. Calfee, like many
other artists. has several strings TO
his bow. He Is now exhibiting
paintings and drawings at George
Washington University's Studio Gal
lery until November 8, although his
study of art was in the media of
sculpture and architecture. A native
Washingtonian, he studied sculpture
in Paris, at the Corcoran Art School
and at the Cranbrook Academy Of
Art, Bloomfield Hills, Mich, under
Carl Miles, the great Swedish
sculptor, who has been teaching in
the United States for a decade. Mr..
Calfee also studied architecture at
Catholic University. He is aSSo-
ciate instructor in sculpture and life
drawing at Phillips Memorial GAL
lery.
His current one-man show COM
priSeS eight paintings in tempera
and oil and six large drawings. In
viewing these works one is struck
by the prevalence of sculptural and
architectural qualities, although it
is possible ones Judgment Is inf1u-
enced by knowledge of the artist s
educational background. The en-
phasis is on structure, bulk and
weight. in most instances; the color
is quiet and undistinguished, with
a prevalence of grayed blues, brown
and green. This is true even of
several paintings done in Mexico,
which incites most painters to vio-
lent color.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1940-10-27

was held here in the National Mu-
scum, and at the present time a
collection of his paintings is making
circuit under the auspices of the
American Federation of Arts.
Until war drove him from Spain
Mr.. Sawyer maintained a studio in
Malaga, visiting Madrid and other
Spanish cities and holding in
Madrid upon occasion and by Of
fetal invitation an exhibition of
his Spanish paintings. Recently
he has been painting in Mexico
whence he returned at the begin
ming of this summer.
His daughter Helen is a very
gifted and delightful painter of still
life and the wife Of Jerry Farms
worth, one of the most successful
of our younger American artists.
1t is very gratifying thing to
have artists such as Mr.. Sawyer
who are or have been associated
with the art life of Washington
represented in the permanent COL
lection of the Corcoran Gallery OF
Art.
