EXHIBITION ARRANGED
AT UNIVERSTY
Work of a high standard was seen in the University' Union As sembly Room yesterday when the Amateur Photographic Club con- menced a threeday exhibition of the pictures entered for the Members Competition, which was completed recently.
As in former years, Mr. PA. Dragon once again demonstrated that he is among the foremost amateur, photographers of the Colony. All his works bore the mark of distinction, which was re- warded by the judges with no fewer than five places in the first ten best pictures selected by them. He won the Advanced Class Competition with a beautifully finished picture entitled, "Curves," depicting chil dren at play at the sea-side, and the second place with one called "Back-lane Gossip," which was art and humour exquisitely blended.
In order not to award all the prizes to one exhibitor, the judges have decided to present the second prize to Mr. H. Luer, whose best called effort
picture a "Seamstress." The third prize was awarded to Mr. W. H. Tan, whose, study of sea-life over the title, "Resting On One's Oars," deserved ly earned the judges' approval.
Other prize-winners in the Ad- vanced Class were. Messrs. A. Abbas, H. C. Coh and K. W. Khoo, all of whom won consolation prizes. Beginners' Class.

In the Beginners Class, Mr. Paul Braga proved easily the best, the judges awarding him the first six places. His efforts were in a class by themselves, and gave one the impression that before long. this promising photographer wil rank as one of the best amateurs in the Colony.
Although his best effort was placed seventh in the list, Mr. E G. Tan was given the second prize, while Mr. E. L. Foo annexed the third with a picture which was placed eighth. Mr. R. S. Canell won a consolation prize, recognition being also given to the Wah Yan, Photographic Club, whose study was awarded tenth place.
The judges for the Competition were Mr. E. A. von Kobza, Dr. Th. Nagel, and Mrs. A. "M. Bowes- Smith.
