D. C. WEDNESDAY, MARCH .2, 1932 SIBERIAN ART DESCRIBED Dr. Salmony Delivers Lecture at Freer Gallery. ‘The ancient art of Siberia was the subject of a public lecture at the Freer Gallery of Art yesterday afternoon by Dr. Alfred Salmony. Art objects recovered in Siberia, Dr. Salmony said, include some of the oldest in the world. In Central Siberia figurines have been recovered which can be identified as belonging to the Aurignacian period when artistic con- sclousness first developed in the human race. This was before the close of the last ice age and the evidence shows that paleolithic man was undergoing the same development in Mid-Asia as in Europe. | During the historical periods, Dr. Salmony said, Siberian art advanced to a high level, especially in metals. Hungary defeated England by five | games to two in the recent Swaythling Cup tennis contest at Prague, Czecho- slovakia.
