Residents of Radcliffe's Whitman Hall noticed a blank space on the dining room wall last week where there once had been a reproduction of an orangy-green Gaugin water color.
Efforts at recovering the painting were foiled by students shifting the hiding places. An explanatory note left by the culprits on the head table in the dining room explained that the painting was too "atrocious" to be hung.
