Lynn Linares Shoe
To Go on Tour

When the exhibition by Lynn
Linares closes at the David Porter
Gallery next Wednesday it will be-
come one of the gallery's series of
travelling exhibitions now offered
for 1856. Others already seen here
include Grace Horn Meas Broken
Arrow Document" and Ethiopian
paintings. Five more groups are
available or in preparation,
Linares derives his inspiration
from Mexican themes and paints
in oil, Duco and water color-gouache
combinations on wet paper. Despite
the concrete subjects of some of his
works-"Sea Serpent" Lots Wife"
"Narcissus," etc., they appear to be
entirely abstract, and very few OBJ
servers will be able to see any con-
nection between title and interpreta-
ton.
The rich, tropical colors and fluid,
wavering lines made the reviewer
wish these paintings had been done
on silk or some other textile instead
of unyielding board and paper. They
seem to call for the tremulous move
ment of soft material which would
turn them into shimmering fabric
murals.

Uncle Rays Corner

1t was 1924 and several men were
on long trip. They were trapping
beavers and other animals and had
travelled along the banks of the
Yellowstone River. Later they had
gone southwark across what is now
Montana into Southern Idaho.
1t was journey of adventure
These men were not the first whites
to go into this part Of our conti-
nent, but they were in truly wild
area. Here and there they might
meet another party of trappers, but
they were far more likely to see
Indians. There was no telling
whether or not those Indians would
be on the warpath. In general the
party kept at a distance from In
dian villages and camps.
The party included young fell
low named James Bridger. Born in
Virginia he had moved with his
parents to a farm near st. Louis
At that time he was only years
old. Four years later his mother
died and In the next year his father
Thus at 13 he became an orphan
Soon after the loss of his father
James went to st. Louis and became
a blacksmith's apprentice. This work
was good for his muscles, but IL
did not make him feel content. In
1922 he joined a party OF trappers
bound for the West in the interest
of "the Rocky Mountain Fur Co.
When he reached the northern
border Of what is now Utah, Bridger
was 40. Camp was pitched in the

The Salvage Drive
PRIZE CONTRIBUTION
By Larry Pifman, IS,

We, the people of America, as we

who don't have home, those who.
instead of having a fire in the fire.
place, are sitting on the ground
with terror in their hearts, gazing
Mortified at the smoking ruins of
their homes.
Yes, war is terrible, but you have
to face it. We can't get out there,
OF course, yet we can fight here,
now-we can save and save and
bring every bit of paper we can
find for salvage. Now think-think
OF those boA huddled together in
shen-hole. One of those boys
may be your father, your brother
or some relative. Those boys are
waiting for ammunition, ammuni-
ton shipped in paper cartons; blood
plasma to save mans life-wait-
ing, waiting. Let's hope their pa
thence is rewarded.
Will you please, for their sake and
your sake, think and plan where
you can get paper, and think of
those boys in that shell hole?

perversion of art to employ lines
and colors, design and brush work,
to perpleX rather than inform.
On the other hand, however, there
will be found certain works cata-
logued in this exhibition, which are
so literal that they seem tame and
rather weak. The field of art was
never wider than today.
Mention in this connection may
well be made of a painting by
Prentiss Taylor which is entitled
Total Immersion, Caseria, Reale,"
which pictures an adult baptism in
the basin of a great fountain of
baroque design. The minister and
the candidate are seen in the fore
ground. Above, and around to the
right and the left, are the white
sculptured figures, of fact and fancy,
which the baroque age brought
forth. Over head are storm clouds
colored by the rays of the setting
sun. There is drama and motion
in the whole composition which is
indeed complicated and studiously
developed. This Is rather more a
literary Interpretation, than one of
things actually seen. To this extent
it has affinity with the works of
the romanticists of Delacroix's time
Portrait Studies

Persons acquainted with Jean
Helion's recent history, will prob
ably feel that there is more to his
work than meets the eye. Those
who do not know anything about
him will doubtless regard his present
exhibition at Caresse Crosby's Gal
lery as composed Of clever and col
orful posters, but nothing more.
Helion is a French painter who
for a decade before the war was
known as an abstractionist. In 1910
he volunteered to fight with the
French Army; his American wife
and child remained in Virginia. He
was taken prisoner and spent many
grim months in Nazi prison camp.
But eventually he escaped and re-
turned to the United States. He
wrote a book, They Shall Not Have
Me-" recording his experiences with
the Nazis.
The current exhibition comprises
l8 fairly large oil paintings and a
number of drawings. They depict
men and women, or more accu-,
rately, robots, engaged in such SIM
pie acts as lighting cigarettes, tip
ping their hats or merely returning
the, visitors stare. They are painted
largely in primary colors-a bril-
liant red, a warm light blue, yellow
and white, with heavy black out
lines, delineating the forms. In fact,
the color seems to have life of
its own, more intense than the
figures.
One wonders if the hat-tippers,
smokers, ETC., symbolic the artists
preoccupation with the simplest
gestures of freedom, as contrasted
with the circumscribed life of a war
prisoner.
Quite apart from the fact that
there are more cigarettes in these
paintings than one is likely to see
now in week, which would in
itself arrest the attention, these
pictures would be excellent adver-
tising art. Their impact is startling.
But for constant association the
color is too animated, the figures
too wooden.
This exhibition remains through

Fine Bird Prints.
At Smithsonian

Bird lovers, as we'll as people
interested in art, will enjoy the
exhibition of aquatints and other
prints by Kathleen Macy Finn on
view in the Division of Graphic
Arts gallery, Smithsonian Building,
through February IL. More than
80 prints are shown, Is of which
are in colors. There is plenty of
variety in the bird plates; the sub
jects range from hummingbirds to
herons and cranes. A few of the
color aquatints depict fish. She
also shows soft ground etchings of
landscape and still life.
The aquatints in colors are fresh
and attractive and give no hint of
the difficult technical process In
yolved in the artists use of a single
plate and single printing. the
classic method of the 18th century

it emptied. Bridger was the one
who was going to find out.
While other members of the party
stayed in the canyon where the
next winter was to be spent, he
boarded bull boat" which he had
built. The boat was made out of
buffalo hides stretched over frame
work of wood. 1t was clumsy af-
fair, but served well enough for
short trips.
Down the river he hoated for
few hours, then guided his craft
ashore and climbed a slope. From
a high cliff. ne was able to gain
view of body of water about 25
miles to the south. Returning to
his boat, he made his way down the
river until he reached a lake of
great size. He tasted the water and
found it to be very salty. He had
discovered Great Salt Lake!
When he returned to camp he told
his comrades what he had found.
1T must be an arm of the Pacific
Ocean" declared one Of them, and
the rest agreed. They did not know
that this big body of salt water was
far from any ocean, and was COM
pletely cut off from any other sea or
lake.
Bridger's discovery was made more
than 20 years before the Mormons
reached the area near Great Salt
Lake. This lake has a far larger
proportion of salt in it than any
ocean. The water Is so heavy that a
person who fell in the middle of it
would float along without effort. II
he wanted to sink to the bottom. he
would need to hold a heavy piece Of
