Primitive Pointing
Exhibit Opens At
Walker Center Feb. II

"101 Masterpieces of American
Primitive Painting" from the col
lection of Edgar William and Bern
ice Chrysler Garbisch will be on
view at the Walker Art Center
from Sunday, Feb. II, through
Sunday, March II. The Mime
apolis showing is under the CO.
sponsorship Of the Art Center and
the Minnesota Historical Society.
The paintings, chosen by Colonel
and Mrs. Garbisch from nearly
$500 in their collection, are COM
ing here directly from the Metro
politan Museum in New York,
which previewed the show.
Nineteen of the paintings have
been lent by the National Gallery
of Art in Washington; these are
part of the original gift to the gal
lery in 1858; the other works are
from the Garbisches' collection.
This exhibition will afford local
gallery goers a chance to evaluate
the work of our primitive painters,
as we'll as present a unique docu-
mentation of early life in America.
The show traces the decades from
the early 18th century through the
American Revolution and the 10Th
century, with renderings of prom
inent families, among them the
Ten Eycks, Sargents and others.
Nearly half the artists are an
onymous, but among those who
signed their work are Benjamin
West, Ralph E. w. Earl and Ed
ward Hicks, one of whose versions
of the "Peaceable Kingdom" is
probably the most famous painting
in the exhibition.
The exhibition is travelling under
the auspices of the American Fed
Grafton of Arts and will tour major
museums throughout the country
after it is shown in Minneapolis.

HouseU
100000

The historic Lord Fairfax
House in Alexandria, Va, is be-
ing offered for sale to any pur-
chaser who will turn it into a
museum. The price is 100000.
Bob Duncan, who is handling
the sale for the owner, Miss
Gertrude Crilly, said he is par
ticularly interested in selling
the 146-year-old house to some
one who will give it to the city
as a museum.
The three-story red brick
house at GOT Cameron street is
intellectually renowned for
its woodwork, circular stairway
and arched vestibule entrance.
It has nine bedrooms, a walled
garden and a two-car garage
that was converted from the
carriage house last year.
For many years it has been
the home Of the two Crilly sis
tiers. one of whom died last
year. The family, longtime res
idents who were prominent in
banking.
The house was built in 1916
by William Yeaton, who also
erected the burial vault at
Mount Vernon. Thomas Lord
Fairfax, ninth Baron of Cam
eron, bought the house in 1880
and used it as a winter resi-
dence until he died in 1886.
He left it to his son, DR.. Orlan-
do Fairfax, an Alexandria
physician, who owned it until
after the Civil War.
The home is the third his
toric property to be placed on
sale in the city in recent

Two Junior colleges and 25
new school buildings would be
created in Prince Georges
County in the next three years
under a SAT million construc-
ton progra recommended
yesterday by the county'S SUI
perintendent of schools.
AS proposed by Supt. William
S. Schmidt, the program en-
visions expanded facilities to
accommodate a Spiraling en-
rollment expected to number
more than 100000 pupils by
the 1967-68 term.
Construction of 16 elemen-
tary, six junior high and three
high schools, coupled with ad-
ditions to II existing schools,
would provide 299 new class
rooms and space for 1880
students, according to Mr.
OSIlIIl4OG PlOROoo4.
The two Junior colleges
would be established in Laurel
High School and on a 49,
tract near Largo. Md, which
the Board of Education has set
out to purchase. Total cost OF
the dual project would be
S3.350,000.
The board voted unanimous
~ to offer o. B. Zantzinger,
owner of a Washington real
estate and investment COM
pany, S250,000 for the proposed
college site at Landover CRoute
202) and Oak Grove roads.
Near Proposed Community
The property is a half-mile
from the proposed site of a
mammoth planned community
for which rezoning has been
requested by Northampton Es-
tateS Venture.
Board member James H
Harrison. who made the motion
to seek acquisition of the tract
said it was large enough for a
secondary school or a new
maintenance building, as well
as the college. Although sew
age disposal facilities would
have to be constructed, little
grading would be required be-

been cleared for farming, he
said.
Mr.. Schmidt recommended
that S350,000 be spent to reno
vate Laurel High School, which
would become the other junior
college. He also proposed that
an 800-capacity high school be
built in Laurel, as well as a
10-room elementary school.
Half From State
Total cost of the Largo area
college was estimated at So mil
lion, half of which would be
paid by the State.
In his report to the board,
Mr.. Schmidt said the record
construction program he pro-
posed is necessary to provide
for an ever-eXpanding school
population that jumped from
$4,000 in 1858 to $4,000 in the
last school term. Enrolment
next month is expected to ex-
coed 10000, he estimated
More than 500 million was
spent for school construction
from 1858 to 1862. The county
contributed $59,850,000 of the
total. The rest came from Fed
.eral and State funds and State
loans.
Suggested Schools
Mr.. Schmidt has proposed
construction of the following
schools, with suggested capaci-
ties:
High Schools-Laurel, 800;
Brierfield Road area, Oxon,
1000; Kenilworth avenue area,
Riverdale, 1000.
