today, as will be shown when Rise
Stevens and Ida Krehm appear as
guest artists with the Lincoln
Symphony Orchestra.
Miss Ida Krehm, who earned

eration of Music Clubs.

of the Metropolitan Opera com
pany last year. At the age of
26 she made her debut in the
opera Mignon. According to Olin
Downs, New York Times music
critic, she is a woman of "un
questionable gifts, both vocal and
dramatic."

THE ARTS
Sheets show
offers variety
of pictures
By Lee Taylor.
Millard Sheets, whose one-man
show is currently on exhibition in
Gallery A of Morrill, presents a
variety of unusual pictures. Most
of the paintings show in the back
ground the landscapes of Cali
fornia, Arizona, and New Mexico.

illustrates a different technique
showing the versatility of the
artist.
Today, a ycung man of 32,
Sheets holds a position in the art
world seldom achieved by a man
so young. "Winslow Homer at
28," says Malcolm Vaughn, noted
art critic, '-'did not show more
talent."
From high school, Sheets en
tered Chouinard School of Art in
Los Angeles and after completing
four years there he was given a
one-man show. The same day his
exhibition opened in California, he
was notified of a $1,750 prize for

Memorial Museum in San An
