Banded together by a brace of easels, the D.P. ' s brandish their palette knives (apologies to Irving) with erring skill, sometimes brought to rein only by Mr. Philbrick ' s quizzical expression or well-chosen quip. They sit and stand pale but strong, shadowed behind the bizarresque of their own canvasses. If painting has a double entendre, they achieve it, tor conversation pieces and color effect are running mates, perhaps to the sacrifice of the latter after a week end. They help each other, like each other and shout each other down . . . ' til at an impasse. They are a class of sorts. As ' to the future, no overstatement — anything can happen! Nancy Noyes

She has the power to per- meate; what Is more, she can render the Ubangi (female), O D and May Stevens In turn without grinding her gears.
