of the Saluda, Lieut.. Sanders
says: Sound developed so much
during the war, a lot of basic fun
damentals were omitted. We're
starting from scratch and work
ing the whole thing out, studyiy ,
the factors involved in underwa-
ter sound transmission"
Lieut.. Sanders explains that
"the reason the Saluda was picked
for this assignment is that it is a
soundless ship, and We can lay to
without machinery running and
no metal to interfere with the
sound"
The Saluda has $500 square feet
of sail, the. main mast is 96 feet

square feet and a displacement of
56 tons. Both the ,Salu5a and

of Argentina and Uruguay are in
cluded in the special exhibition now
being shown at the Library of Con-
gress from the collection of Edward
Laroque Tinker author and lecturer
who toured those two countries re-
Gently under the auspices of the
State Department.
The exhibition was opened last
Thursday with Dr. Luther Evans,
librarian of Congress. presiding over
the ceremonies. Speakers on the pro-
gram were Herschel Brickell, acting
chief of the Division of International
Exchange of Persons, and Mr. Tinker.
The exhibit will remain at the Lii
brary until June IA, when it will
start on a tour of major cities and
universities throughout the country.
Eighteen display cases of current
publications, donated by Argentine
and Uruguayan publishers, illustrate
the progress made in recent years in
this field by the two nations Large
posters, reproductions of paintings
by famous artists such as E. Molina

OF the 80 oil paintings on view,
Is are illustrations, the others land
scapes, still life, portraits and fig
ures, and genre. Some of these are
broadly handled, lacking the careful
detail of the illustrative works. But
all of Wyeth's paintings have the
authority of sure technician.
MI. Wyeth painted many mural
decorations. including five panels in
the Hubbard Memorial building
National Geographic Society, and a
triotych for the Chapel Of the Holy
Spirit in Washington Cathedral
These and other major works, the
awards and honors bestowed upon
him, and the professional organiza-
tions with which he was affiliated
are all listed in the Corcoran Gal
lery's catalogue available with the
exhibition.
What is not mentioned are the
facts that Wyeth was a great, hearty
lover of life, who engaged in many
activities in his younger days; that
he was so enamored of the historic
country in which Howard Pyle lived
that after the great teacher died
Wyeth purchased his home anc
studio; and finally, that Wyetf
transmitted to his children some
of his gifts. His son Andrew is al
outstanding water colorist; his
daughters Henriette and Carolyn
are professional artists. Ann is q

eincer.

Miss Bose Maj. Nicholson
Exhibit at Arts Club

Exhibitions by Norma Bose and
Maj Donald Nicholson opened last
Sunday at the Arts Club, to remain
through June 6.
More than 80 oil paintings and
water colors by Miss Bose are in
the gallery. She shows landscape,
flowers and still life in both medi-
ums; but in my opinion, she is more
at home in water color. Her large
view of Rockport, Mass and her
"Geraniums in a Window" both in
this medium. are among the best
things on view. While predomi-
nartly conservative, Miss Bose mani
tests a cautious interest in modern
idioms in such small water colors as
Farm in Provincetown' and
"Rockport Quarry"
Although the present exhibition
includes paintings done in Mexico
Virginia and New England, the ar
tist seems to have found no color
or tonal differences in these widely
separated places. One gets the i'm
preston that she paints according to
a personal convention of view
point.
Miss Bose is an instructor in art
at Roosevelt High School. Her edu-
cational background included train
ing at George Washington and Co.
lumbia Universities. Claremont Col
lege and the University of Ver-
mont. She studied painting with
several noted artists: Henry Lee
McFee. Millard Sheets, Barse Miller
and Paul Sample.

has exhibited with groups during
the past season.
Before World War II. Mai Mich
olson was professional graphic
artist and also writer. In the last
year he has devoted much time to
painting. and has been studying at
the Corcoran School of Art.
The present exhibition includes a
few examples of his work of eight
/ vi llliiC y Scl oSo, oiiloIl5 lIlClil SCN
eral decorative pastels of flowers,
and a figure study. Girl in Blue,
which has all the elements for pop
ular appeal.
OF more recent works I liked best
his large vegetable still life. Raw
Materials' his portrait. Maine
Guide (Which appears to be a
speaking likeness of a middle-aged
man and his water color interior of
a church. st. Johns, Winthrop"
He also shows a number of pleas
ant landscapes. His largest and
most ambitious painting, The
Drones." is a Well-merited rebuke
to night club wastrels and labor
union strikers, but the subject
seems better suited to some graphic
medium.

Miss Cross Shows
New Work at Whyte

Bernice Cross is showing her
latest work at the Whyte Gallery
through next Friday. Twenty paint
ings in oil, pen and wash, all done
in the past year, give a compre-
hensive idea of her latest develop
meHt. Although she was a native
of Iowa. she has lived here more
thar a decade, and her career is a
local one Not a few Washington
ians have followed it from her solo
exhibitions at the Little Gallery
Georgetown, and participation in
Phillips Gallery exhibitions and
other group shows
In her earlier work Miss Cross
seemed to have the reactions and
vision of a child. There was nos
talgic innocence in such paintings
as The Milkman.' owned by the
Phillips Gallery. Then. a few years
ago, she embarked upon a pink
period" if my recollection of various
exhibits does not deceive me. Birds
and still life objects ranged from
strawberry ice cream pink to deep
cherry, and some of her paintings
were bathed in rosy glow
1t is gratifying to discover from her
latest work that she has resumed
painting with specific patterns and
STRONGER color schemes. The naivete
is still here, overlaid with a patina
of sophistication. I liked best her
large Circus presenting all the
acts of the big top In manner
that has extracted the essence of
the subject, corresponding to the
memory that might be carried away
by an imaginative child after see
ing the circus for the first time.
