House & Garden 
A TERRACE GATE IN ROME 
The gate to the garden of the Villa Aurelia, 
the home of the American Academy in Rome, 
overlooks all the ancient glory of that city. 
Here the American Academy is celebrating its 
twenty-fifth anniversary by inaugurating three 
fellowships in landscape architecture and musi¬ 
cal composition and by opening its doors to 
women. These opportunities for American 
students will bring their enrichment to our 
arts. In order to finance these innovations 
and to meet the higher cost of maintaining the 
established fellowships in architecture, sculp¬ 
ture, painting, literature and classic letters, a 
campaign for a million dollars is being launched
