Modern Paintings Of
Alubumu Artist On
Display At AlIison's

Modern but not abstract" is
the way Warren Dennis de-
scribes his paintings now hang
ing in the galleries at AlllSon'S
Wells where the public is cor
daily invited to e them any
day during August.
Il do not claim, as some ma
turalistic painters do, that my
work is really abstract under
neath," said Mr.. Dennis, pro-
lessor of art at Judson College
in Marion, Alabama, whose one
man show opened at Allison's
Sunday. my work, however,
is not completely representa-
tional. | distort form, color or
shade to achieve my purpose.
| feel too, that surroundings and
backgrounds must be connected
to my subject. | paint what is
familiar because when | de-
part from this, the work is
usually a failure.
What | want is very i'm
portant to me-" he concluded.
Il do not paint pictures that
have a popular appeal, because
| find SO much abstract art by
amateurs is an exercise of sur
face effect, without real signifi-
cance."

with this leadership and
the cooperation of all citizens

sissippi will become known as
the Beautiful State as we'll as

familiar with the nationwide
program of attractiveness that
Mississippi is happy to join.
1.-The State Highway Depart
ment and the municipal and

that bottom defoliation should
be considered only if there is
a moderate to heavy crop of
bottom bolls and plants are tall
with fairly dense foliage. If a
grower decides to use bottom
defoliation, the following eau
lions are suggested:
Avoid spraying too high on
he plants. Bolls in the treated
zone should be mature. Appli-
cation should be made in fair
weather. Low rates of defoliants
should be applied: one to one
and one half gallons of most
liquid chlorate foundations, or
one to one and one half plnts
Of Folex or Def, with enough
water to make ten to Is gal
.ons total spray per acre as in
Dictated by celebration of the
spray equipment.
To get full benefit from bot
tom defoliation, ii should b e
followed by bottom harvesting
within IL to 20 days or as soon
as bolls in the treated zone have
opened. The bottom crop can be
harvested by removing the up
per ten to IL series of spindles
from the heads of high drum
pickers. This permits picking
the lower bolls while the up
per foliage and green bolls pass
through unchanged. Corks are
used to replace the spindles
that have been removed.
The complete progress report
is published in the August is

search available on request from
the Experiment Station at State
College or the Delta Station at
