Exhibition Of Abstract Prints Being Shown In Planetarium An unusual exhibition of abstract prints, done by a prominent Dutch artist-musician who lives in Spring field, Mass., are currently on ex hibit for public viewing during De cember at the Morehead Planetar ium's North Art Gallery. , Nardus Lessing is the creator of the monotypes, which express dif ferent moods in color, line and com position. Use of the complete spec trum of colors and intense freedom of movement are two characteris tics of his work. Lessing's creative method is also an unusual one: painting the themes on glass and then transferring them to paper by pressing it against the glass. Japanese prints inspired his interest in creating monotypes, and he previously has done still lifes, landscapes and figure studies. A native of Amterdam, Holland, he graduated from the Royal Dutch Conservatory and attended the Art Academy of The Hague. His teach ers included Schluter and Jan Fran-cken.

Arches Being Erected On Tehran Streets To Pave Path IKE, SHAH TO CONFER Eisenhower Will Speak To Joint Session Of Parliament , By JOSEPH E. DYNAX Tehran, Iran, W W'elcome arches are going up and police say they are looking for the greatest outpour ing of Iranians in Tehran's history for President Eisenhower's arrival Monday. This capital has a population of about two million. Police say they expect most of these citizens will try to get a glimpse -of the visiting President. Fifteen Arches Going Up Fifteen arches are being erected along the streets the President will pass from the airport to the Shah's marble palace. Public statues are being festooned with bunting in the colors of the United States and Iran. Huge portraits of the Shah and Eisenhower are being erected on the fronts of public buildings. Some 'buildings boast strings of colored electric or neon lights in Iran's 'green, white and red, and America's red. white and blue. The President will arrive from India at 8:35 a.m. (12:05 a.m. Est) for a six-hour visit before flying on to Athens on his 22,000-mile peace and friendship mission. Ike To Confer With Shah The President will hold private talks with the Shah and will address a joint session of Parliament. Eisenhower's visit gives the city a double holiday. Sunday, a normal working day in Moslem Iran, i3 Army Day. This celebrates the day Soviet troops withdrew from north ern Iran 12 years ago. Appropriately for the Eisenhower visit, the main reason the Soviet Union obeyed a U.N. directive to get out was Washington's commit ment to support Iran with military force if necessary. The President is expected to rei terate the U. S. pledge to help de fend Iran against attack when he appears before parliament. Parliament Building Impressive The Parliament building is an im pressive structure of white marble just two blocks south of the Shah's See Iran, P. 3, Col. 3 Note Of Cheer Added To GM Party-Goers Decorate; Huge Wreath Featured A festive note of cheer has been added to Graham Memorial by those who attended the Christmas Decorating Party Friday night.
