leries, Ltd, is showing about
two dozen Of his water col

to see.
Mr.. Onyshkewych is not at

tury American language Of
water color as developed by
John Marin and his heirs. He
is not, for that matter. keenly
aware Of what Turner did
with water color so long ago.
He works directly with the
image Of shore, sky and sea,
largely ignoring the POSSIBLE
tiles Of the white of the
paper and the life Of the
brush-stroke. He is out to get
the seaside scene and &c gets

Dear DR.. Mason:

Dear DR.. Mason:
In one of your articles you
mention assisting students In
becoming engineers. I would
like your advice on becoming
one. I enjoy math very much
and get good marks In 1t. Please
help me and tell me what SUBJ
jects I must take and the good
colleges to attend.
j. w., Chevy Chase, Nd.
Take all Of the math. physics
and chemistry offered at your
high school. Study your math
and science to understand It
(Some students are satisfied to
learn enough tricks" to solve
the homework problems. Don't
do that
In your English and public
speaking courses practice dill
igently until you can express
yourself well both orally and
in writing.
There are many good en-
cheering colleges. Your coun-
selor or principal can help you
select the one that will be best
for you.
Dear DR.. Mason:
! Iwould suggest that business
men get to work on presenting
business as q desirable occupa-
ton. Should high school coun-
selors steer all good students
toward the professions and the
less able toward business?
M. F., Webster Grove, Mo.
High school counselors should
encourage interested and able
students to make q profession
Of business.
Education In this field is un-
dergoing major changes. The
findings Of social sciences,
modern math. statistics, and
computer sciences are being
applied to business problems
The Ford Foundation has aided
these changes with large grants
Of money.
Counselors should make stu
dents aware Of the new op-
portunities in this area.

There's q first-rate exhibi-
ton Of woodcuts ct the
Georgetown Graphics Gallery
this month. You owe It to
yourself to get acquainted
with the work Of the artist, q
Midwesterner named Eugene
Larkin.
Most Of the works are in
one color and black, but all
Of them maintain the power
that is so natural to plain
black and white In all print
forms and that seems to be
diluted with every added
color.
Woodcut began as peasants
art Of q sort - not art by
peasants, but art for peas
ants. It was cheap and un-
complicated compared to en-
craving. It was, and Is, Of its
nature somewhat cruder than
engraving or etching. Wood
Is not 30 fine q ground. Wood
chisels and knives are not
so delicate as engraver's
blades or etcher's points, Also.
wood cries out to be used In
large masses Of color, since
1t has to be cut. not merely
cut into.
All C' these traditional
qualities are present In the
work Of Eugene Larkin. Wood
itself, moreover. is present as
often as not as both model
and material. The working
together Of wood as the
grain of the print and wood
as the subject sets up q spe-
cial tension Of vision and
feeling that Is very effective
OF all the thickets and for
ests in the show. the wood
print that does the most is
"Absolom." with the clutch

ably and indistinguishably

In them.
There they stand, at the
Phillips, and they look at you
as intently as you look at
them. You are In the presence
Of persons and It Is q dis
concerting experience.
Who are they, these per-
sons? Their historical Gre
dentials are imposing. In
their stiffness. in their elon-
cation, in their surfaces
worked over as II by time,
they refer at once to distant
cultures. They call to mind
some pre-classical figurines
Of the Eastern Mediterra-
mean. More insistently they
remind us Of figures from the
Pacific, including those found
on Eastern Island. Yet again,
Giacometti's people are relat-
ed to those carved for Ro-
manesque cathedrals, espe-
cially. perhaps, those at Au-
tun and Vezelay.
Deep-Seated Belief
Yet in these vivid refer
ences, there Is no hint Of d.
rect, artistic inspiration. In
deed, the reference is not to
the art but through the art.
We are put In touch less with
the techniques Of Roman
esque sculptors or Of South
Sea Island magicians than
with the informing spirit Of
q whole society, o deep-seat-
ed belief about man, that
shaped the sculptors who
shaped thte work.
Giac ometti's sculptured
persons are also Of our own
time. Their deformations of
surface and proportion relate
to the effects Of the eugen-
ical program Of the ever
ingenious Germans two dec
ades ago, and to the feared
long-range effects Of Rus
sian and American heaping
the atmosphere with radio
active litter. The gaunt. star
ing, solitary figures also re-
late to our own mal-de-
steele, that spiritual hypo-
chondria variously known as
neurosis and anomie.
Their Own World
Finally. though. the figures
reveal that they have their
own world. The crossrefer-
ences to our world and to the
worlds Of our ancestors In
medieval France and pre-
classical Greece remain, but
they don't matter much
These long. skinny people are
self sufficient. They have
their own space. Giacometti

Cu1rCy years now. 11e STOW
points back to his early years,
in which, at this distance, his
work greatly resembles that
Of Brancusi and Lipchitz.
Oddly enough, the single
best known piece by Gia-
cometti is not included,
though It is in New York. not
Europe, the source Of many
Of the works. This Is the
famous Palace at 4 AM"
in the Museum Of Modern
Art. In that constructivist
work, Giacometti created one
Of those enduring images
destined to last q long time
in the minds Of those who
have seen 1t. Made out Of
strips Of wood, glass, wire
and string, "The Palace"
now 80 years old, presents
its title e-object In framework
and fills the frame with q
doll-like woman, q hanging
spine, Q ball and, high over
head, the soaring skeleton Of
q pterodactyl. In the few
lines and spaces Of the con-
struction, Giacometti con-
jured UP all those nocturnal
palaces from Agamemnon's
to Stalin's in which strange
things stir in the night.
A True Original
Giacometti never repeated
1t. This at once marks him
off from other construc-
TONERS then and since. In
most such work, the whole
idea is to come up with an
original look. get 1t copy

ness turning out copy after

every copy Is.
Not Giacometti. He had
something to say in that par
ticular way, he said 1t, and
that was that. Onward.
What he went onward to
constitutes the main body
Of the show. his highly per-
sonal vision Of that most
ancient of sculptural con-
Germs, the human figure. In
dealing with the figure. Gia-
cometti has achieved an
image at once completely Of
our time and universal. VI
brating with non-specific ref
erences to time past. The
Palace" could only have been
constructed In our century,
yet 1t rings with echoes of
Clytemnestra. the Byzantine
empresses, Lady Macbeth and
the last Of the Romanoffs.
In the same way, Giaco-
metti's figures In bronze or
plaster are impossible to
imagine In any other time.
yet they bring many other
times trailing along with
them TO our consciousness.
Ideas on Wheels
Thin and elongated, the
figures stand or walk or rest
upon wheels. The classical
proportion is seven heads
equal one body. With Gia-
cometti. the proportion is
usually 10 or IL and in one
memorable. rather Egyptian
looking piece, the proportion
is actually 80 to /. That's
not all. The surfaces Of these
. stretched-out figures are not

pock-marked. heavily worked
over. And there is a certain
stiffness in the figures. even
