AMBITIONS ARTISTIC
Priscilla Harrington Comes
To UO on $1400 Awards
By Marcia Mauney
Coeditor, Womw'i Pag*
“Ever since I can remember,!
Mother has talked about the
state of Oregon," and now she
is at the University, and on
scholarships amounting to $1400.
Priscilla Harrington, freshman i
in art from Montclair, N.J., and
native of the Eastern coast, finds
Oregon and the West amazing
ly different from her home of the
past 17 years, but is obviously
in love with her new life.
Outstanding talent, high sehol
arship, countless art activities
during her high school career,
“but mostly a great need," she
modestly explains, brought her
financial aid from the Montclair
chapter of the American Asso
ciation of University Women, thc
Montclair art fnuseum, where she
received art Instruction for 10
years; the Montclair PESO group,
and the Girls' club, a branch of
the Women's elub of the city.
Served as Art Editor
Ai t editor of the yearbook, she
was also busy with art work for
the newspaper at Montclair high
school. “The most tremendous
high school experience of all.
though, was working with the
Art-English class," she ex
claimed.
One of only four like it in the
United States, this progressive
experimental class met two hours
a day, with all studies in the two
subjects correlated whenever
possible. This talented group of
students produced the color
movie "Seven Brides for Seven
Brothers" three months before
Hollywood bought the rights to
it.
“We even produced the choral
reading of “John Brown's Body”
before we heard of Charles
Laughton's group doing it,” she
said.

family last July. Priscilla entered

for it. “It wan the first state
fair I have ever been to," she
commented. "We have never
heard of anything like your ro

And another funny thing now
I'm going to school in the third
largest city in the state, and
my old home town is so much
larger, but not even on the map!"
One of the most obvious dif

would chase a person half way

Plans Cnmtnerrial Art Career
After graduation and perhaps
a year of graduate work, “Pris,”
as she is known to her many
new friends, hopes for a career

this field of which she has
dreamed, the designing and pro

Aha, we know who he is, and he IS handsome Check those
