TURTLE AGAIN SHINES FORTH AS STOUGHTON PAINT PEELS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Nathan M. Plaut '39, who lives at 25 Stoughton Hall, found himself without a closet door yesterday.

It had been confiscated for artistic purposes, for it bears upon it the images of a turtle and a partridge, painted in oil as a mural by William Stanley Haseltine, of the Class of 1854 during his two years of residence in the room.

A new, unmuralled door will be installed soon.
