Three outstanding artists and art critics, B. F.

It is believed that more vi-sitors have toured the Art Gal-lery this month than in sev-eral years. There have been numerous bus loads of students from cities throughout Utah as well as club and civic groups. Lectures on the art each night from 7:30 to 9 p.m., have been well attended. The gallery has been open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., daily including Sundays, throughout April and student attendants have taken turns at the desk, to answer questions concern-ing the national exhibit. The lectures each night and admis-sion to the gallery are free. Important Visitors Many artists of note from Utah and out-sid- e the state are listed on the official re-gister at the gallery.- Art critics and teachers from most of the schools in the state have viewed the paintings. There have been scores of tourists ' passing through, who have made it a point to see the na-tional show in addition to many from this and other cities throughout; the state. Pamvi R.x KtilV "If visitors got no farther, than the East Gallery on the first floor of the art building, and saw the' large painting, "Peace be Still," by Arnold Friberg of Salt Lake City, they would be amply paid for' their time," one individual re-marked after looking at the painting. This piece of art is not for sale, but is owned by Mrs. Rose Floyd of Salt Lake City. She felt that if the painting could give as much pleasure to each of the thousands of visitors to Springville's art show, as it had to her, she would be willing to loan it to the high school for the dura-tion of the National Exhibit.

Qmfims Ito --meteorite Springville area residents like those in other parts of Utah and several other states, witnessed the fiery meteorite Wednesday night, and those familiar with historical facts and dates recalled that it was just 187 years ago on that date, that Paul Revere warned the people of Concord and Lexington that the British were coming. They wondered if it were a modern-da- y warn-ing. For about 30 seconds, the night sky was as bright as day, giving those who saw it, a rather awesome feeling. Nothing quite like it had been seen here before and it was interesting to hear of the re-actions of townspeople. The phenomenom was reported seen as far east as Kansas and west to San Francisco. The meteorite is believed to have exploded some ten miles south of Eureka, but nothing to substantiate this belief has been found to date. Shortly after the bright light dimmed, a low thud sim-ilar to far-awa- y thunder, was heard and observers believed the meteorite then exploded. The tower at the Salt Lake Municipal Airport said there were three separate flashes apparently explosions with the final one lighting up the whole sky.
