A group of Jewish architects played a prominent role in designing the main features of the Festival of Britain which opened here yesterday. The interior of the “Done of Discovery” was designed by Mischa Black. F. Tischlar was chief assistant to the architect who designed the does, which is the largest in the world. Mr. Black also designed the decor for some of the major buildings in the exhibit.
F. Heifenberg collaborated in designing the Power and Production section of the exhibition. Bronek Katx designed the Dome and Gardens section near which stands a great female bronze figure by Jacob Epetain. Leonard Merns### designed on of the exhibit buildings and Abraham Gomes created the festival emblem.
