Donald Mattison, director of the art school at Herron Art Museum, was talking with The Observer recently, about the discrepancy between the layman's notion of the artist's Bohemian life and the actuality. It seemed deplorable that no tales to equal the plot of Puccini's "Boheme," could be brought to light, just to keep everything the way the layman is sure it is, whether it ought to be that way or not. Mattison, however, is an obliging young man.

He said he would think it over the following Monday Monday, he insists, is his day for thinking and let The Observer know the results. Here they are: "I first thought you would like to hear something 'arty about the Herron school, but I couldn't think of anything Bohemian or different about our students. Most of them come from good normal Hoosier homes, and, although it is common knowledge that you don't need to have a good Hoosier background to. be a successful artist, we have found that it helps. Also, we can't think of any first-rate graduate of the Herronschool who is Bohemian, because'he has to.

work too hard to have time for the nonsense of being "In these days, in addition to having his feet well planted in his native soil," Mr. Mattison continued, "the Hoosier art student has an average background. You are likely to find that the pictures he iurns out reflect the things and Rind of life he knows and is leading. It is no shock, for instance, to see a picture with some large defense factory right in the middle of it, and when you ask, 'How the student says, 'Well, you see. I am married and have a child, and I work in a defense plant as an electro-plating expert eight hours at night and come here to the Herron school eight hours during the day, so I can become an artist.

You can't beat that for ambition, and what is Bohemian about working' sixteen hours a day? "There isn't a Prix de Rome prize for such a student, this year, but he'll be ready when the war is over and it is available to art students again. As I say, this may not be a Bohemian attitude to take, but here is one man who will be a good artist. Maybe you could tell people about this fellow." It is, The Observer feels, something satisfactory to tell, too. There are other serious-minded folk in town: The Cadettes at the Service Men's Centers, although it is not their job to be serious, when they are on duty. They save their thinking, not for Mondays, as Mr.

Mattison claims he does, but for their meetings. In the nearly three years that the regiments of Cadettes have been active the young women are constantly changing. The members have discovered that the SMC has offered something they have been unable to get in quite the same form anywhere else. They call it impersonal friendships. What they mean is that they go to the Centers, dance, talk, maybe play pingpong, and that they do these things as pleasant recreation.

It is not a question of meeting a "boy friend." The Cadettes do not expect the men to take them home, and they are not interested in emotional involvement as a primary aim in life. They enjoy their job so much that it is not really a job. Furthermore, they want the idea continued. 1 In their meetings, when they do their serious thinking and planning, they have evolved a postwar idea of their own, and it is sm idea that might well be taken into consideration, along with all the other postwar plans. The Cadettes hope that the Illinois street branch of the SMC can be retained after the war as seme sort of club, where young women and young men enlisted men.

if they are in town; returned and discharged soldiers and sailors who have liked the SM9 idea and eligible civilians can meet, as they do now, and dance and talk and play games. The "setup," naturally, will be different from the present one, since the club will have to be self-sustaining, but the Cadettes aren't terrified. Neither are they foolish enough to discuss more than a general plan. They know that problems of membership, of recreation and all the rest of it will have to be met as they appear, just as the SMC has met and solved its problems. They, feel and quite rightly that a place like this is needed for young folk who do not enjoy the routine night spots or who do not belong to the established clubs.
