By JAMES THRASHER Manual High School pupils got their first look today at “The Apotheosis of Science,” a mural painted by Elmer Taflinger, who is a Manual graduate himself. Mr. Taflinger’s contribution to his alma mater was hung with appropriate ceremony on Saturday, marking the completion of a fiveyear task by the artist and his

brother-in-law, Robert Lovell Black, another Manual alumnus, in whose biology classroom the mural is displayed. It all began when Mr. Black decided the teaching of the history of science needed a “shot in the arm.” Some illustrative material seemed the prescription. So Mr. Black enlisted the aid of Mr. Taflinger, an enthusiastic authority on things pictorial.

Consensus Obtained

First of all, they had to decide upon the scientists who should be represented in the picture. So they chose the names of 20 outstanding scientists of all ages. These were submitted to more than 100 representative scientists, educators and editors for approval. After the replies were all in, the collaborators lopped off three names from their of 20 and added 35 more. That, as a little quick arithmetic will reveal, makes 52 scien-

Lovell Black,

The mural’s composition itself (dubbed Paint Job 93X by Mr. Taflinger for practical purposes) was a tremendous task. There are three panels, and the over-all measurements are 21 feet long by five feet high. The right and left panels contain the 52 scientists and 15 varieties of birds. Cover Wide Range

In the center panel one finds, among other things, 88 varieties of flora and fauna, including everything from man and the African elephant to the bath sponge, vinegar eel and bread yeast fungi. This panel, which represents the development of biology, is dominated by a three-headed male figure with four arms and four legs. The heads represent the Caucasian, Mongolian and Negro types. And the nice old bearded gentleman whose face looks forward is Leonardo da Vinci, in case you had wondered. Grouped around this man of many parts are four figures, vehicles of a double-barreled symbolism. Not only do they represent the four ancient Greek scientists, Aristotle, Hippocrates, Euclid and

Archimedes, but also the four ancient elements of Fire, Water, Air and Earth.

ves Idea

In fact, such was the thoroughness of the Taflinger-Black research, that there is not a meaningless line in the whole work. Besides possessing a satisfying blend of line, color and design, it is chock [full of symbolism. And, equipped [with the detailed table of contents which accompanies it, the mural becomes highly instructive as well as entertaining.

Work Highly Praised

Many letters of commendation have been received from the group of scientists first consulted, although most of them have seen

only black and white reproductions of the finished product. Otis W. Caldwell, secretary of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, writes, “It would seem to me that it is an exceptionally fine piece of work.” “It ought to help inspire students to pursue .scientific careers,” comments Charles B. Davenport of the department of genetics, Carnegie Institution, Washington. And E. H. Kemper McComb, Manual principal, feels that “Our students will experience a greater thrill from the achievement when they realize the artist is a Manual

SUIT CHARGES METER READER STRUCK HER

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Sept. 25 (U. P.) —Bessie Wells, a minister, has filed suit in Superior Court asking $10,000 damages from the Northern Indiana Public Service Co. for injuries allegedly inflicted by a company employee. She said a meter reader who called at her home swung a heavy flashlight at her dog, missed the dog but struck her on the leg inflicting “permanent injury.”

Tardy Pupils On the Spot

Times Special SOUTH BEND, Ind. Sept. 25.— The tardy pupil's excuse that he “didn’t hear the bell” soon will

be as antiquated at the one-horse shay at Portage Township School. The electric bells which call pupils to classes are being replaced with sirens. Pupils complained the bells were not always audible at a distance. “There’s no doubt about the sirens being heard,” Trustee Alex S. Langel said.

BEDFORD TO OFFER

BEDFORD, Ind. Sept. 25.—Paul Tyndall of the City Recreation Department has announced that free music lessons will be offered all children and adults living in Bedford who are unable to pay for them. Enrollment will be held this afternoon at the Thornton Community House and classes will get under way tomorrow afternoon and evening.
