Elizabeth Le Fort of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, hooks portraits of famous people. This dyed-in-the-wool artist, a shy farm girl from the rugged land of the Acadians immortalized in Longfellow's "Evangeline", has made hook ed paintings of President Eis enhower, Queen Elizabeth II, Arthur Godfrey and his horse, and the late Pope Pius XII. The portrait of "Ike" copied in home-dyed wools from a color photograph which the Republican National Commitr tee sent her, hangs in the White House. It prompted a complimentary letter from the President, no mean artist him self.

She has just completed her most ambitious project-a c"opy of Leonardo Da Vinci's "The Last Supper". 154 Colors Employed This intricate painting measures eight feet in width and four and one-half feet in height. Miss LeFort estimates she used three and one-half miles of yarn and 800 thou sand stitches-169 inches make one square inch. "The Last Supper" took 154 colors', all of them dyed in regular pots and pans on her kitchen stove. The wool comes from her neighbor's sheep and is-sent to Prince Edward Isle for processing into yarns. I met this unique artist, a small dark-haired woman of 44, when she came to Manhat tan for an exhibit of her works. She had held winter exhibits in Laguna Beach, Calif., and Phoenix, Ariz. She was heading to Toronto for an exhibit this week and then on home to tiny Point Cross, Cape Breton Island. Her sponsors, accompany ing her, are Mr. and Mrs. Ken neth Hansford, who summer in Nova Scotia, where they run a restaurant, a photo and arts and crafts shop along the Cabot trail, a big tourist at traction. Come winter, the Hansfords usually head for Phoenix-"we get 100 mile winds and tem peratures 25 below on Cape Breton," said Hansford. "It's too rugged for me." Discovered on Farm Hansford said he discovered Miss LeFort just by combing the farm area in search of arts and crafts. Rug hooking is an old skill with the Acadi ans. Miss LeFort learned from her mother, but it was her own idea to go into portraits and landscapes. She sketches her designs in ink on burlap first, then fills in with the wool yarns. "In all, I guess I've done close to 50 pictures in the last 15 years," she said, in careful English. Her native tongue is French. "I must work in spare time. There are lots of chores on a farm." The artist, daughter of a fisherman, lives with her brother and his wife. She re mains a modest soul, although those who have seen her works praise them highly. Some paintings have sold for $300 to $500 but a few dealers have talked of "The Last Supper" in terms ofa $10,000 price tag, she said. 4 Auxiliary President Names Committees Shady Cove - Committee appointments were announc ed recently by Mrs. Harry Birch, newly-elected presi dents of the Steelhead auxil iary, Veterans of Foreign Wars.
