Whitney Selects Art For State Exhibition
Following the art exhibit staged in the department of design the past weekend by 27 high schools, one piece of work from each school has been selected to be sent over the state on display, announced Miss Maude Ellsworth, chairman of the exhibition. The art work selected for this purpose was chosen by Miss Marjorie Whitney, associate professor of design.
The high school conference, which the exhibit, was cancelled because is usually held in connection with of war regulations on transportation. Miss Whitney explained. It hoped to have a conference as well as an exhibit next year. Every piece of work was criticized by the judges, and the criticisms were sent back to the children and teachers.
The schools represented in the exhibit were Bomer Springs, Manhattan, Newton, North Newton, Parsons, Salina, Scott City, Shawnee Mission, Wichita, three schools from Hutchinson two schools from Lawrence, five schools from Kansas City, Kan., and four schools from Topeka.
The judges were pleased with the variety and number of mediums and subject matter according to Miss Ellsworth. The judges thought that the entire exhibit showed that Kansas children were becoming aware of beautiful color, line, and form, she continued, and that independence of thinking was being shown on the part of the students.
No Grade School Texts
Because of the paper shortage no new grade school English texts will be printed in Kansas.
