Ever planned to browse around the library and read little snatches of interesting books you ve seen on the sheh-es? Ever planned to enter any of those contests you ve seen posted on the publications board? Ever wanted to have one Avhole day absolutely free without any threatening ivork to do? Ever seen those piles of leaves on the front campus in the fall and lyanted to jump into them? Ever planned to do a lot of extra, unne^ssary things here at Saint Mary’s? Doubt less you have. For some peculiar reason, though, you never quite get around to them. _ ^ ^ i That walk is going to be taken tomorrow, but when you wake up “tomorrow,” it’s either raining or you haven’t got the stamina to rise and shine at seven o’clock. You say you’re going to read those books next week as soon as you’ve finished Eng lish reading and that chemistry test ? But by the time next week rolls around, you have another assigned test and there’s a movie on up town that you must see. You’re definitely going to write an essay and send it off as an entry in that contest^ and it’s due Alarch first. But as usual, Alarch first slips up on you and . . . oh, Avell, you Avouldn’t have won the contest anyway. As for the free day, you know how frequent an occa sion it is; and you resist jumping in the leaves because you know they would be a lot of trouble for some one to rake up again. There are lots of things that we all want to do here and never get around to; hut the one who does is the fortunate one. The only way to do them is to take the time; if you wait for it to come along, you’ll find that it never will. Just go on and do them, or you’ll end up like the rest of ns with lots we wanted to do and graduated, still Avanting. Spectrum Splashes If you like abstractions as we do, no doubt you will be fascinated by the cover on the May issue of the Magazine of Art. This linear de sign is a photograph of a radio tower viewed from the inside and looking toward the mast. In this same issue is Donald A. Shelley’s article on John James Au dubon. This illustrated article states: “Audubon the artist is just as complex and many-sided ... as Audubon the naturalist or Audubon the adventurer.” The author also discusses the general neglect of rec ognizing the creative genius of this artist. Mr. Shelley goes on to say that soon after Audubon had created his works, Mr. Havell, his first en graver, realized the true talent and worth of Audubon’s drawings. The author also wishes to give credit to Havell, who so conscientiously and capably transferred Audubon’s cray ons and watercolors into the medium of engravings with aquatinis. Also in this Alay issue is a most timely article on Jicasse which we really appreciated. This article gives excerpts from the flood of criti cisms which Londoners poured on the recent Picasso show held in the Victoria_ and Albert Aluseum. The general idea seemed to be that what Picasso was creating was not really art, but, as one critic said, it was nothing but “vile garbage.” One British flier said that the horrible colors made it much harder to take. From the illustrations in the maga zine and from what we remember of his work in the Aluseum of Alodern Art, Ave are inclined to agree with the Londoners. However, as the article said, the British minds Avere not so plastic as the French, who understood and appreciated Picasso. That being the case, Ave are really glad that our minds aren’t plastic. But of course, that all depends on the point of vieAv. In “Spectrum Splashes” this year Ave enjoyed reporting to you our findings in the Library and the Gal lery. We say good-bye for ’46 and here’s to more and more artistic in spiration, but, please, not of the Pi casso A'ariety! Town Talk Exams are over, and there Avas much hurrying and studying. That brings to mind that summer is well on the way, bringing an end to school and this column. A great deal of_ news has taken place this year (if ucavs lal-es place), and mayhe this column has been Avhat the day students have wanted. If not, there can ahvays be improA^e- ment next fall. Of all the iicAvs, the most exciting is the announcement of Patsy AIc- Kimmon’s engagement. Patsy is that pretty blonde business student, and noAv she really has something to smile about. The boy is just as SAveet and cute as she is; so every thing is peaches and cream. Jane Winston, Patsy’s cousin, Martha Ann Olson, and Eleanor Tucker Avill be in the wedding . . . and all four girls are decided blondes. It ought to be a beautiful wedding. Speaking of marriages, Sharon Harris, an old day student, Avas mar- (See P. 4, Col. 4)
