MANET'S "OLYMPIA" SELLS BY SCORES AT THE COOP

The suppressed issue of the Lampoon has apparently stimulated a keen interest in art among students. This fact was revealed by the number of men who have visited the Coop recently to obtain copies of the picture which played a large part in the suppression of the Lampoon.

At the Coop, the print goes under the number E 156. The original painting, which is by Manet, now hangs in the Luxembourg, and is entitled "Olympia." The subject is a nude, couchant, and differs from the Lampoon representation in that it is minus the wine-glass and the horrid leer with which the humorous artist embellished it.

According to a statement from the book department, several score copies of "Olympia" were disposed of in three days.
