The redskin Adam and Eve in Miss Vogel's much discussed paint- ing have tossed all conventions and fig leaves to the winds and stand nude, gazing out over a green gea— Iive facing this way and Adam the | other. Migs Vogel's reason for paintin the first folks red and the sea green was “because I merely happen to Jlike red figures against a green she said. “And its the least obscenc | picture I've ever painted.” | Members of the athletic club aten to do something about it. That picture unfit for public view,” Mrs. Lydia Huyck, prominent | member of the exclusive club, thinks. | “It should never be hung in the same room with innocent &ubj comments Mrs. Ada Witmer, other club leade Baroness Violet Wenner, owever, came to the defense of Miss Vogel. “While Eve's nose is sort of eut | oft and Adam ~looks like a prize- | L fighter, T don't think there is an thing obscene about the picture,” | th an- { lief 3 we don't Adam and Eve looked, said another ¢ Mrs. Charles Pete the cxhibit, know how | s0 why criti- fender. n, sponsor of | has made no dec!

AUDITORIUM RENTAL DISPUTED School Board Names Comumittes| to-Consider Revised Charge Tental rates for the Senior school auditorium, a subject was argued at great length at school board's January meeting, again brought up at meeting and after a which lasted approximately 1!Hm»v quarters of an hour it was voted to appoint & special committee whose | veport will be heard at a special | board meeting this month. “The matter was brought to light after Secretary Henry T. Burr had | read a long communication from | George Hahn, a member of the New Britain Musical club, requesting the | use of the auditorium for a free| concert in May with the provision | that the club would pay the over-| liead expenses only. The concert is| 1o be given in conncction with a state convention of musical clubs. The first member to speak on t request was School Joseph M. | High that | the was | Committeeman | Ward who said in favor of granting the it was his belief that the| chedule drawn up at a recent school board meeting was not final Mrs. Effie G. Kimball moved that the request be approved. Sceretary Bu thought it was a worthy and edu tional project and he could see no reason why the request should not be granted. | Just as the motion was going to| be put to a vote, Committeeman | Louis W. Young, a member of the special committee that set the rates for the auditorium at 5 for an| evening performance said a definite | amount, approximately §100, shouldl be set. A nball called the board's tion to the many objcctions auditorium rates that she ard. She said it was her anding when the addition Senior High school that the auditorium community center. Mr. Young =aid he was | request | since at-| to has unde to the| was constructed | would be a| it was the con- tention of the special committee that | ihe §175 rate was not exorbitant. At this point Mrs. Laura I Mangan expressed the opinion that the rates| for cleaning were excessive. Superintendent Iolmes said, number of people thought it fine thing if they could get the auditorium for nothing but the| school board should not have to pay | the bills.” ~He felt the school boar. would be paying fer something for which outsiders would be gaining a| profit. Pajewski Advises Caution Tormer Alderman Peter J. #ki who was attending his first meet- ing as a school board member made Dhis maiden speech. He urged the members to go slowly because there are n coming up and if re given the priv jlege of spect tes others would have the i they were not entitled to this consideration. Again Committeeman Ward called the board's attention to the Musical club’s request. He said the concert| was to be given gratis by an organi- zation that has no great financial means behind it. One of the mem- asked if the senior class at the gh school cxpected to pay rent for the concert the class is giving. Sup- erintendent Holmes cxplained that | the proceeds are going for the bene- fit of the school. Attention wa: drawn to the fact that the New Brit- ain Choral Union intends to conduct | a concert on April 30 and it also| asked for a reduction. | Mrs. Mangan suzgested that the committee bring in figures in an cf- fort to determine whether a reduc- tion is possibl>. Mr. Pajewski wa ed aga ablishing a precedent. | Orzanizations that have no large | following are considering renting the auditoriuvm, according to Mr. Young, who said they should use one of the | smaller auditoriums.
