Robert S. Stryker, enjoying a Sheldon Travelling Fellowship, has recently sent back from Spain a number of water color paintings now on exhibition in Robinson Hall Annex. Although most of the paintings are concerned with the Alcazar Gardens, Seville, there are numerous landscapes from Granada and Majorca. Supplementing this collection is a small exhibit of pencil sketches by Von Ingen of New York City, dealing with American park scenes.

Following the Christmas recess the Topiarian Club of the Architectural School begins its sixteenth annual competition, open only to second and third year men and lasting three days. Three judges chosen from among outside practitioners will award the prizes: the first a silver cup; the second a book. Second year men are already working on a housing problem at Waverley Oaks while third year men are constructing an assumed graduate school of fine arts. The plans for the outdoor areas will be exhibited.
