FIELD MUSEUM GETS CHINESE PAINTNG Rare Old Pictures of Cock Fight Dating Back to 12th Cenâ€" tury Received A rare old Chinese painting repâ€" resenting a ‘cockfightâ€"one of the favorite sports in the Orient at least as far back as the sixth century B. C. kas been presented to Field Museum of Natural History by the American Friends ‘of China, Chicago. _ The painting, executed in delicate colors on an ancient muchâ€"worn silk, had been kept for centuries in a private collection in Japan. It is attributed to Li Anâ€"chung, an artist of the Sung period, who lived in the twelfth cenâ€" tury, according to Dr. Berthold Lautâ€" er, curator of anthropology. It bears the earmarks of this period in drawâ€" ing, style and color.. "Fixer" a Feature That the horse race and dog race ‘track "fixer" of â€"ill fame in modern times had a prototype in ancient China is indicated by the painting. Some fortyâ€"six. men are depicted grouped around the cockpit. One of the â€" combatant roosters is seeking safety in flight while the other eagâ€" erly pursues him. The attention of the crowd, however, is not contracted on the contest. Instead their heads are turned upward, watching a bird in the air which has just been hit by an arrow, discharged by a dignified official. He seems to be the umpire of the cockfight and also the owner of the cowardly rooster, andâ€" has taken this means of distracting the attention of the spectators from the struggle until he can remedy the sitâ€" uation for his winged gladiator. . Favorite Pastime "Cocking was a favorite pastime of many emperors and idle youths in anâ€" cient China," says Dr. Laufer, "In like manner, the sport was cultivated in ancient Cambodia, Java, Sumatra, India, Persia, Greece and Rome. In all these countries cockfights were conducted merely as a popular amuseâ€" ment accompanied by heavy betting. The originators of cockfights were probably the Malayans. In the beâ€" ginning the game was connected with Malayan religious ideas. The fightâ€" ing roosters represented village and tribal communities and their chiefs. The cocks were regarded as devine, and their contest was an ordeal which decided the superiority of a commuâ€" nity." Total Enrollment at f High School Is 1,268 This year‘s total enrollment at Deerfieldâ€"Shields high has reached the figure of 1268,, an increase of 165 over last year. Eleven .of these students are apâ€" prentices in the vocational departâ€" ment, reporting to Mr. Davitt for drawing and mathmatics, to Miss Beckmire for English and social sciâ€" ence, and to Mr. Durbahn for carpenâ€" try. "This is the smallest apprentice enâ€" rollment we have ever had," said Mr. Durbahn, "due to building condition: in this county and others." One more apprentice is expected, which will make the total number 12. Thursday, October 16, 1930
