McDonald Drawings Displayed In Lounge Browsing in the faculty lounge offers more now than the usual ar ray of chairs, tables and lamps. Henry McDonald, part-time in structor of engineeriTOg drawing at the college and also a local archi tect, has put on display a presenta tion of several of his plans and drawings of various buildings. Some of the plans have already be come a reality, such as the Metho dist church, the local high school, the Rosman Methodist church and the Horse Sho.e Methodist church. Included in the display are Hen derson School, Hotel Asheville, (now in the remodelin'g stage), Brevard High School, Brevard’s Methodist Church, “a Country Club,” and a Pensacola office tailding, complete with plans for the President’s penthouse. Upon carefully studying the dis played plans, one can clearly see the difference in art and archit^- ture. Mr. McDonald sees this dif ference vividly, and is quick to point out that art and architecture are not in the same field. Dream ing enters into architecture in a very minute way, for there is far tiio much technical data to allow it.
