The court later granted a rehearing. Justice Harry H. Belt who wrote a dissenting opinion following the previous hearing is in Canada and will not participate in the rehear ing.

Th SUtMnuw Scoring another first for Salem in the Oregon art world is the cur- Tent showing of oil and pastel por traits by Edwin M. R. Weiner, na tionally known midwestern artist at the R. L. Elfstrom galleries this week. Weiner chose Salem for his only Oregon show because he feels this city is more appreciative of the classic type of painting he does, while the museums and art gal leries of Portland are ' cluttered with the modernistic and impres sionistic type of art Born in Kingston, N.Y., in 1883, Weiner has been a longtime resi dent of Beloit Wis., and has done most of his work in the midwest His present tour of the west coast marks his first time here, and the people, cities, and scenery are pro viding him with new thrills which he much appreciates after the flat rolling lands of the mid-west. Wei ner and his wife are particularly enamoured with the Oregon coast. Graduate of Cornell He Is a graduate of Cornell uni versity, and studied portrait paint ing from Wayman Adams, one of America's foremost portrait art ists, and George Bridgman, also known for his portraits. Weiner has exhibited and won many prizes for his work, most of it has been done through the mid-west though he has done many portraits of famous personalities on the east coast As an instructor at Beloit col lege for several years, Weiner started many pupils on their way to becoming recognized artists. He left the college and started his own private art school recently. First Portrait When Few , Weiner drew his first portrait when he was four! years old, us ing his grandfather for his model and drawing on wrapping paper. He has continued in portraits be cause he likes people and is inter ested in bringing out the character and personality of the person he is painting. For relaxation he does flower still lifes and paints horses. His real joy, though, is playing the viola in a string j quartet when in his home town. An ardent Ro trian, Weiner seldom misses a meeting, even when traveling. His portrait of Paul Harris, founder of the Rotary club, hangs in the Chi cago international offices. Model May Watch With 38 years of experience to draw upon,,-Weiner paints a pas tel portrait; in Vt to 2 days, and an oil in 34 to 4 days. He rigs a mirror behind himself so that his model may watch the 'progress of the portrait When! painting wom en, Weiner has to remove the mir ror when he is ready to paint the lips, because the woman subject will unconsciously contort her lips fcwgjr -.i.pW ee - Jtdtjf fear rfcaraMc2sf EnfiA ftnt fsRff Aittt i 6.
