Prof. KarpinskiI Collection OfA This is the fifth of a series of arti- cles on the hobbies of members of the faculty. The vast collection of maps, geog- raphies, gazeteers and atlases relating to some part of the Americas and3 books concerning Christopher Col- umbus on exhibit today at Yale Uni- versity was started as a hobby by; Prof. L. C. Karpinski of the mathe- matics department. "It was a natural transition, from profession to hobby," explained Pro- fessor Karpinski, "since the earlya mathematicians were cartographers as well as compilers of text books."; Professor Karpinski came in con- tact with approximately 400 antiquar- ian dealers in early text books and maps in connection with building up the collection of mathematical works, the most complete in its period in any American library, for the Univer- sity. The hobby, modestly enough begun, was given impetus in 1926 when the William L. Clements Library author- ized Professor Karpinski to secure photographs of manuscript maps in the French archives relating to the American revolution. The cooperation of the Library of Congress as well as the participation of several other libraries made it pos- sible to extend the project to include the reproduction of manuscript maps in Spanishand Portuguese archives. Among the 4,000 separate maps col- lected by Professor Karpinski, is a reproduction of the first map bearing. the name, "America." This chart, lost through the ages, was not dis- covered until 1900. Professor Karpinski refers to Amer- ico Vespucci, after whom our contin- ent was named, as "an innocent by- stander." "It was Martin Walsemuller, the German scholar, who is responsible for the name of our country," de- clared the professor. "He designated the New World in his "Cosmograph- iae Introductio" as "America" and the name remained, probably be- Responsible For Paul Specht To Historical Maps Play For Annual cause it fitted in so well with the Lawyers' B al countries then recognized; Europa,, Africa and-Asia."CT Not only is a reproduction of the Crease Dance To Be Held first map of America in the Kar- At Law Club Friday; pinski-von Wieser collection, but also the first scientific map of the world Patrons Announced made by J.

Alpha Nu To Discuss i . Direct Primary System A discussion of the direct primary Week-end ,At Unio in Michigan, led by Frank Aldrich, By MARION HOLDEN Variety has been the 'rule in the subjects that have been selected by n Modern American Artists whose works are now on display at Alumni Me- morial Hall. The exhibit was arranged 1 by the College Art Association and will be shown here until March 24. Still life studies comprise a large part of the exhibition. "Old Hat" painted by A. S. Baylinson is a very interesting composition. "Roses in An - Alabaster Vase" is done in neutral shades and is the work of Florence Ballin Cramer. Bertram Hartman's "Masculine Still Life" is a study chiefly composed of string instru- ments. These are placed on a table in the foreground, and in the back- grouhd a man is standing. There are two hunting scenes on exhibit that are quite interesting. One is a self-portrait of Henry Varnum Poor, and the other is by Arnold Blanch and shows a hunter resting on a log with his dog lying at his feet. The largest canvas on exhibit is a full-fighting scee by Stefan Hirsch entitled "Matador." Portraits are also popular in this exhibit, and they vary from the real- istic to the modernistis. "La Toilette" by Harry Gottlieb is a study of a nude figure. Peppino Mangravite's "Girl at Table" is done in various shades of rose. "Guy, The Last Lowe of Lowe's Point" is a very realistic study of an old min by Marguerite Zorach. "Pele" by Raphael Soyer and "Boy" by Henry Mattson are also on display. Georgina Klitgaard's p a i n t i n g Mary Moore ToAppearIn MayFestival Mary Moore, the brilliant and spectacular coloratura soprano, has been engaged as a May Festival solo- ist, supplementary to the list of dis- tinguished artists, previously an- pounced. Miss Moore will make her Festival debut at. the Thursday eve- ning concert, occupying several spots in the second half of the program. Miss Moore, who is twenty-one years old, was to have made her operatic debut at the Metropolitan on February 7, but due to a serious at- tack of ,tonsilitis, it was postponed until a later date. According to a recent announce- ment, Miss Moore will be heard for the first time in the Metropolitan Opera concert, Sunday, March 17. Other artists on the program will in- clude Kirsten Flagstad, Karin Bran- zell, Elizabeth Rethberg, Fredericks Jagel, Paul Althouse, and Pietro Ci- Mara. The full Metropolitan Opera orchestra and chorus, under Wilfred Pelletier, will participate. At that time she will sing excerptsI from Donizetti's "Lucia di Lammer- moor" and Verdi's "Rigoletto" with1 other artists of the company.t Miss Moore will sing the first-act1 duet from "Lucia" with Nino Martini, the sextet with Philine Falco, Mr. Martini, Armando Borgioli, Ezio Pin-{ za and Alfio Tedesco. From "Rigolet-1 to" she will sing the third-act duet with Mr. Borgioli and the quartet with Mme. Branzell, Mr. Tedesco and Mr. Borgioli. PUBLICITY COMMITTEE The publicity comnittee of the League will meet at 4:30 p.m. in - the UndergraduelWe Office All "First Snow" is a picturesque study of a village with the snow-covered moun- tains in the background. "Yankee Town Saw Mill," painted by Katherine Schmidt, is a realistic composition of an old mill in front of which is a pile of sawdust. "Farewell to Union Square" by Mor- ris Kanter is a most unusual painting. In the very center of the picture there are three roses, and although the rest of the picture is of the Square, it is hard to draw your attention from the roses in the center. Reginald Marsh, in his painting "Alma Mater," has depicted a square in which several jobless men are sitting lazily about a statue. It is one of the most out- standing works on exhibit. Marriages And Engagements Are Announced Several marriages and engagements of University students and alumni have been announced. A marriage of interest to Univer- sity students and faculty is that of Barbara Jane Evans, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William F. Evans, and Wil- liam Staley, son of Mr. and Mrs. Allen C.
