AT UNIVERSITY SCULPTURE EXHIBITION: The soft curve and gesture of the figure of "The Spirit of the Snow" make it one of the outstanding pieces of the sculpture exhibition in the Michigan League concourse. The study is shown above with the artist, Miss Alice Frayer of Riverview Dr., a senior student in the classes of Prof. Avard Fairbanks. Miss Frayer's work of which this is a worthy example, has won her a fellowship in the Philadelphia Academy of Art for next year.
