		I hear it and am reminded of what Dylan Thomas said of a British broadcaster: 'He speaks as if he had the Elgin Marbles in his mouth.' Thank you and goodnight." Wry humour had displaced Mercouri's righteous passion, and the game seemed to be up.

		Harrison had claimed that "a young artist could never form to himself an adequate conception" of Athenian monuments "without having before him some such sensible representation of them as might be conveyed by casts."
		Thomas Whately's dictum, for example, that rocks are "too vast and too stubborn to submit to our controul" (OMG 99), does much to illuminate the reaction of The Examiner and the general response to stony massiveness that I have begun to sketch.
		Of Sir Thomas Lawrence, the chairman (Bankes) asks, "is that superiority applied to the fitness of the Elgin Marbles as forming a school of art, or is it as to what you conceive to be their money value?" "I mean as to both," says Lawrence.

		The architect also banked the building into a small rise, further decreasing the building's mass when seen from the east, south, and west.
		In a studied and deliberate fashion the architect has fooled the viewer into believing that the building is actually half its size.
		The only possible lead is that the architect of this building was probably the same architect of the nearby Fred Harvey Company residences on Apache Street constructed about the same time; but, unfortunately, the architect of those buildings remains unknown.

		The entire development in the Munson Valley district of Crater Lake of which the Superintendent's residence is a part fell under the supervision of landscape architect Merel Sager.
