The Newcomb Pottery exhibit in the Fine Arts building 
was of good size and of usual simple shapes and conventional 
decorations with the famiHar greens, grej'-s, j^ellows and blues 
with a bright glaze, although a few interesting metallic effects 
were shown b3^ Joseph Meyers. The decorators represented 
were the teacher Mary Scherer and of the pupils, Hattie Joor, 
Marie Hoa Le Blanc, who received a bronze medal, Roberta 
Kennon, Ada Lonegan, Leona Nicholson, Amelia Roman, 
Mazie Ryan and Sabina Wells. To Miss Scherer is due much 
praise for the high average of design work, and to the potter, 
Mr. Meyers, for the shapes and glazes. 
The medal received by Miss Le Blanc is an unusual recog- 
nition of merit, being selected from a number of exhibitors in 
the same class. It must be understood that these medals 
awarded by the jury of the Art Palace are of more importance 
as a recognition of artistic merit, than any medal given in the 
more conmiercial exhibits in the Liberal Arts.
