PROVO (UTAH) SUNDAY HERALD," SUNDAY. JULY 4, 1937 PAGE THREB- Irvin Scott, Provoan, Now Eminent New York Architect By LA VERL CHRISTENSEN From a high school graduate to a seat of eminence among America's leading architects is the progress Irvin L. Scott has made since leaving Provo twenty-two years ago. Mr. Scott today is completing a three-day visit here with his mother, Mrs.

Eliza B.S> Scott, 356 South Eighth West. He will leave early this evening for his home in New York City. In New York he holds a position the peer of any achieved by of being chief architect in the construction department for the 1939 World's Fair. His work is to prepare and check plans and designs for 28 buildings being erected at the site of the fair, Flushing Meadow, a 19,000 acre expanse of reclaimed land. These buildings will cover 1,200,000 square feet of ground, and will cost more than $25,000,000, Mr.

Scott states. The former Provoan has more than 200 architects and engineers working under him. The buildings being erected at Flushing Meadow will house the wares of exhibitors. The entire site of the fair ultimately will ibecome one of the greatest ever prepared, in Mr. Scott's opinion.

It is expected that between forty and fifty million people will attend the fair during the 180 days it will run. In qualifying for 'his present position, Mr. Scott has climbed a long and rocky path. After graduating from B. Y.

Academy in 1914, he earned a scholarship to Cornell university. He attended Cornell for two years, then was sent into aeronautical training for the World War. When the war ended, his training stopped and he went back to Cornell. He took out his bachelor of architecture degree, then spent two years abroad on a traveling scholarship. His six years at Cornell and two years abroad were under the auspices of the Telluride association, which took an interest in him during his high school days.

Returning from Europe in 1925, Mr. Scott worked with the famous architect and designer, Joseph Urban, for eight years, being a member of the Urban firm for the latter three years. In 1932 he began private practice in New York. He now has a private office, and works in partnership with Otto Teegan, a former Harvard graduate. Designing buildings for the World Fair isn't new to Mr.

Scott. With Mr. Urban, he designed the color schemes and lig'hting for the recent Chicago World Fair. In partnership with Mr. Teegen he did the color scheming for the Great Lakes Exposition in Cleveland.

Mr. Scott, in Provo for the first time in 10 years, is thoroughly enjoying his visit. "I've never had so muc'h fun in my life," he said. "Seeing new faces, seeing old faces now grown up, and shaking hands with old has all been great." Riverside Cafe for Business ROTARY CLUB COMMITTEES V. Malonev.

Putnam said, however, it was possible the plane had landed on an island with fuel left and that Miss Earhart and Noonan were running one of its two motors at stated intervals to operate the radio and send out signals. Putnam kept a brave front throughout the long hours of waiting. Mrs. Noonan, bride of the plane's navigator, however, collapsed on her way to Oakland airport. Friends buoyed her confidence by showing her a telegram from Paul Mantz, technical adviser to Miss Earhart, expressing belief the plane was safe on an uninhabited island or reef.
