HOOSIERS PUT ON TEA Sponsor Exhibit by Sculptor Gives Talk at Georaian Who COMEDY FOR TRI-DELTS Leads Track Team I Art and music had their combination StJnday at a pleasant spring tea which took place at the Georgian hotel, sponsored by the Hoosier salon and the hotel management and attended by patrons of art on the north shore. C. Warner Williams, a young sculptor who has gained recognition in and about Chicago, gave a talk illustrating his art and featured by the choosing of a model from his audience and the modeling of a bas-relief. He has modeled many of these for wellknowri families of the vicinity in the last three years, and some of them formed the exhibit which was officially opened there Saturday and which is open the rest of this week to art lovers. Mr. Williams was winner of a 1928 prize at the Hoosier salon with a basrelief portrait of a child. He was graduated from Berea college at Berea, Ky., and from the John Herron art institute of Indianapolis, his former home. Evanstonians who hail from Indiana were among the patrons of the tea Sunday and included Mr. and Mrs. John C. Shaffer, president of the organization; Frank S. Cunningham, Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Buffington, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander F. Banks, Harry G. Nye, Mrs. Carl Wolcott, Mrs. Carl P. Hubbard, Mrs. G. Byron Killen, who introduced the sculptor and who is art chairman of the Daughters of Indiana, Dr. and Mrs. Harry E. Mock, Mrs. Scott Brown and Mrs. M. G. Steinert. Blanche M. Lyons, Evanston singer, gave a program of songs during the tea hour. Her numbers included Cadman's "Welcome, Sweet Spring" Stearn's "Dreamland Waits for You',, Tosti's "Vilanelle," Paulin's "The Harpsichord," and Densmore's "Laughing Song." She was accompanied by her mother, Mrs. James W. Lyons.
