1t comprises SO works by 80
artists, some of them showing

AS has been the case since
the Guild was organized early

wide and its shows range from
naturalistic to abstract and
non objective works. Me-
diums, too, are varied: Oils,
watercolors. cottages and a few
sculptures in stone, terra Gotta
and metal.
The majority of the best
paintings are between tradi-
tional and abstract. Among
them are Leonard Maurer's in
terpretations of stone quarry
and collection of pottery:
Eliot O'Hara's strong designs
Of flying gulls and gnarled
Monterey cypress; Alfred Nc
Adams woebegone Lonely

often grow into rogues of the
type we know the Communists
are today in the mature years
