Scientist Exhibits Skill in Painting
Painting and science have rarely been known to go together and seldom has it been possible for a person to make a mark in both the fields.
But Stewart Clare, a KU research biologist, a teacher, and an alumnus, seems to exploit this rare talent very effectively.
CLARE WAS born near Montgomery City, Mo., and was educated at the Central High School in Kansas City. He received his bachelor's degree from KU in 1935 and his doctorate from Chicago University.
His interest in painting grew while he was doing research work in the Midwest Research Institute in Kansas City and studying art at the Kansas City Art Institute and the University of Missouri.
His artistic work may be seen in the Browsing Room of the Kansas Union where the collection will be on display until Jan. 3.
COLOR DESIGNS and paintings appearing in this exhibit represent one segment of a collection that was begun in the late 1920's.
The material used by Clare is principally gum tempera and resins from various parts of the world. Also, the molding-frame wood was collected by Clare himself in the South Pacific, Australia, and Africa. He has had similar exhibitions in all those places.
Clare's collections are being used during summer sessions at the New York University, Adirondack Science Camp, Twin Valley, N.Y., where he teaches a course in the theory science of color and design. The paintings are used to supplement the series of lectures which form the basis of the course.
AS A SCIENTIST, he has written five books and published 75 papers. He has also lectured and done research at universities in Australia, Canada, and Africa.

Junior Woman to Receive Special Honor
A KU woman whose quickthinking action helped a fellow student will be honored at Templin Hall's Christmas buffet dinner Wednesday.
Pam Ellington, Saratoga, Calif., junior, will be honored for "outstanding service" and will be presented with a plaque. Mike Youngblood, Prairie Village sophomore and vice president of Templin said.
Miss Ellington was driving a car in front of Templin Hall November 11, when she saw another car run over Errol Wahl,
Valley Center freshman, who was riding a bicycle. She quickly drove her car up over a curb, jumped out, and applied pressure to Wahl's mangleled leg. She held the pressure to stop bleeding until ambulance attendants took over 15 minutes later.
Wahl is a resident of Templin Hall. Surgery was performed on his leg after the accident, and he is now on crutches.
"We feel Miss Ellington's action had a lot to do with Errol's quick recovery." Youngblood said. "She may have even saved his life. She will be our special
guest at the dinner. We want to express our gratitude for what was a very kind and human act."
