Sculptor’s Smock and Party Gown
Vie tor Favor of Chicago Womer
CHICAGO, April 5.—The sculp
tor's smock has as important a ,
place as the party gown in the j
wardrobes of Mrs. Louis Lentz
Woodruff and Mrs. Robert Maynard \
Hutchins.
Beth are serious students of sculp
toring. Mrs. Hutchins held her
first exhibition this year, showing
15 portrait busts.
Both Mrs. Hutchins, wife of the
president of the University of Chi
cago, and Mrs. Woodruff wife of
the chairman of the board of the
Bank of the Republic, and a lead
ing Mid-west financier, have stud
ied in their homes.
The Hutchins' home is in a se
lect district near the university,
while the Woodruff place is in the
heart of the restricted ‘ gold coast"
fronting Lake Michigan.
Despite domestic duties, the care
of children, the demands of society
and the pressure of charitable and
church work, the two women al
most daily steal away to their
studies for hours with their work.
While the youthful university
president was winning teaching
honors at Yale, his young wife was
busy with her sculptoring. Before
she came to Chicago a year ago
she had executed several domestic
and foreign commissions. Mrs.
Woodruff studied in Paris under
Bourdello.
One of Mrs Hutchins outstand
ing portraits is that of "Lolly, a
Southern child." Her subject was
a South Carolina girl she saw from
the window of a parlor car.
Mrs. Woodruff’s most recent
model is a modernistic Madonna
and Child.
