Young architects want more than anything else to win the Paris Prize of the Society of Beaux-Arts Architects, providing $3,600 for two and a half years’ study at the Paris Ecole des Beaux-Arts. Last week one Thomas H. Locraft, 24, student at the Catholic University of America, in Washington, won it for his design of “A Supreme Court Building of a Republic.” More extraordinary than the prowess of the winner was that of the Yale University School of Fine Arts which supplied three prize winners in the competition—A. J. Kelsey, who was second, A. E. Euston, third, D. A. White, fourth—and the remaining contestant, F. W. Dunn, who received a medal.
