At the State Teachers College Art Gallery, the Museum of Fine Arts of Boston Is providing an exhibit of a recently published portfolio designed lor general use In secondary schools, colleges, and art schools. Since its publication, the Museum has also found an unexpected audi? ence among research workers in many fields of the creative arts, auch as'the motion picture industry. and advertising, for whom authentic works of art from specific periods are a basic requirement.

This port- folio Is the first of a series of similar ones planned by the Boston Museum as a contribution to the general educational work of this country. In the present exhibit, the 41 plates in the portfolio are attractively mounted, forming a series of reproductions of paintings, sculpture, architecture. printing, furniture, and metal work selected'to show the essential char nti. nt rnoiich (, i time of Elizabeth and Shakespeare The motivating purnose in this Tr!

Toward this end, the mu-' seum Is seeking to awaken a greater historical sense in the individual student by making available for teaching and study a scries of illustrative sets adapted to classes in hlstoiy, literature, and languages. One hundred different sets are planned, about one-third of which have been completed'. Each set consists of approximately 40 enlarged photographs with factual captions and an article of several thousand words summarizing the essential characteristics and contributions of, the specific period or subject set forth. Except for Elizabethan Eng-' Jana, ail tne sets exl' on as sinele copies and are circulated almost ex-; cluMvely in the schools of Boston and vicinity. i' 1 I snows kitchen of North Pownal dwelling occupied by Mr.

REP. HEDGES WANTS TO HEAR DOWNEY Proposes Commissioner be Called Before Committee on Teachers Colleges Closing. Boston, April 25 (P) A suggestion that Education Commissioner Walter' F. Downey be called before the Legislature's education committee on the proposed closing of four state teachers colleges was made yesterday by Representative Charles W. Hedges Quincy).

Hedges, a member of the committee, said he would recommend that Downey provide a "complete financial picture" of all nine normal schools and the Massachusetts State college at Amherst. Gov. Saltonstall's recommendation that the Hyannis, Worcester, Wesffleld and North Adams schools be closed caused a storm of protest at a legislative hearing last week. Downey's absence from that hearing came as a surprise to many and led the governor to deny he had instructed the commissioner to stay away. Later, in a statement, Downey explained he was attending a conference in Brdgewater at the Lime of the hearing.

The club would far better justify its existence and those who com-' prif-e it would derive much greater; satisfaction from their membership, he said, if it set for itself a pro-' gram of objectives to be achieved this year and every year and made sure that they were attained. Mr.

Staab mentioned a number of undertakings in which other clubs in his area have succeeded and outlined several novel ideas for financing such programs. The local club, which has a present membership of 31, would find accomplishment of such tasks easier if it were larger, ho said, indicating at the tame time that work toward the achievement of a definite and worthwhile program would create an incentive for desirable men to accept membership invitations. The lieutenant-governor urged the club to send a representation "which would at least fill its quota of 14 to the 23rd annual Klwanis International convention which will be held in Boston for four days starting June 18. He outlined some of the -highlights of the convention program, suggesting that those who cannot remain for the entire fcur-day period at least try" to attend some of the convention sessions. During the meeting reports on the Kiwanis club's participation in the local demonstration at the state teachers college hearing in Botton a week ago today were given by Dr.

J. A. Pierce, chairman of the club's committee on public affairs, Dr. M. M.

Brown, L. Louis SanSoucic, who served as chairman of the Chamber of Commerce committee that organized the delegation, and Frank W. Godsey. It was brought out that, about 95 per cent of the membership of the club went to the hearing and that the Kiwanians enabled many other citizens to attend also by abandoning their plans to make the trip by bus and using their own cars instead, putting the empty seats at the disposal of others who wished to go, when it was found that additional transportation facilities were needed. iitnwxmMWmiimi M-AF-l-t yOU BUY! sideration.

Boston, April 25 (JP) A movement to get an advisory opinion from the Supreme Court on whether the Legislature or county commissioners has the right to reapportion the state's representative districts was under way at the Slate House today, Members of the legislative redis ricting committee frankiy admitted the decision would effect party strength in future legislatures. Democrats would gain, they said, if the county boards assigned the districts-while Republicans prefer to have the' Legislature, where they hold a commanding majority, make the district lines.

Some legislators contend the authority of the legislature extends only to apportioning the senatorial districts and that the county commissioners break these down into representative districts.
