PAGE SIX Library Lithograph Exhibit Gives Reality To Emotions By ESTELLE SIMON If one regards art and science os the common denominators of civilization, the exhibit of litho graphs in the library would serve to further that conviction. Emo tions and reactions, uhiversally experienced, are captured in Works which convey an impres sion of reality and concreteness. To almost everyone existence ihas at one time or another seemed futile. This thought has been cap tured in Luis Quintanilla’s “Paul ette.” Not pretty, Paulette looks like a maid or lower-income-bracket (housewife. She sits absentmind edly peeling potatoes and staring into space. She stares with a blank, hopeless look as though all that life held for her were count less potatoes which must be peeled. ■ On the other hand, “I Got a Gal on Sourwood Mountain” seems to announce that gaiety and festivity are the order Of the day. Couples dance spiritedly on a rough-grained wood floor to music provided by a lank bearded fiddler. The swaying lantern and active figures remove any possi bility of a static scene. Psychologists refer to memory as an integral'‘part of the think ing process. Memories may be sad or happy. “Memories” by the Spanish - born artist Frederico Gastillon is the epitome of path os. Mr. Castillon has been award ed a Guggenheim fellowship.- PSCA Plans International Picnic, Freshman Forum, Council Meeting ■ Activities planned by PSCA for the coming week include an International Picnic, Freshman Forum and Freshman Council meetings.

Moore, head of the College de partment of education and psy chology, at Freshman Women’s Forum meeting in 304 Old Main, 7:30 p. m. Tuesday. Dr. Moore received his bachelor tof arts and master of arts degrees ftrom "Indiana University and his In this lithograph a woman and man whose faces seem to have been chiseled from stone fill the foreground. The background sup plies atmosphere with buildings of Spanish-type architecture. From the partially closed eyes of the woman one seems to sense her introspection. There is no look ing forward to what will come; her thoughts remain in the past. Moments of complete peace oc cur only occasionally in the twen tieth century. Grant Wood cap tures two such moments in ’’De cember Afternoon” and “Jan uary.” The latter because of its sim plicity is the more powerful litho graph. Wind - blown snow covers a row of teepees. The only thing which mars the crust of the snow is a set of footprints leading-to one of the teepees. A beak nosed old man, strongly resembling an eagle, represents the element of struggle in William Gropper’s “The Opposition.” His wrinkled neck, hollow chest, and toothless mouth betray the fact that while it may be a game bat tle it will probably be a losing one. Well-fed, disinterested com petitors heighten this impression. The old saw that only death and taxes are certain, points up the uncertainty of life. “Fog Bound” seems to capture the quality of insecurity.

Women’s Building frosh Research Workers Develop Frozen Milk Concenlrale For Army Supply A process to make concentrated frozen milk has been developed by two dairy research workers at the College, F. J. Doan and Jo seph G. Leeder. Supply officers in the armed forces have ex pressed an interest in this product. In evacuating sick and wounded servicemen from foreign coun tries, hospital ships may be stocked with frozen evaporated milk at American ports. Since it is not perishable if it is stored at low temperatures, ships will have wholesome fluid milk, hard ly distinguishable from fresh milk, available for the duration of the voyage. The new frozen concentrated milk may be manufactured in any dairy plant that is equipped with an evaporator, homogeniZer, and ice cream freezer. The milk is first evaporated, then frozen to a mushy consistency. After packag PENN STATE CLASS RINGS L. G. BALFOUR COMPANY LOCATED IN THE ATHLETIC STORE PICTURES .

' v. ing, it is frozen further at a tem perature of ten degrees below zero. . In order to convert the frozen milk to useable form,'it must first be . defrosted by placing the Con tainer in hot water. If an equal amount of water is added, .the fluid resembles coffee cream; If twice as much water is added the product is similar -to fresh milk. Under earlier manufacturing processes an oily fluid resulted 1 when the milk was thawed;. It' seems possible that milk may take, its place among other frozen food products in the future.
