"The little nude figure," a price
less etching by Whistler, was back
in a traveling art exhibit on the
Oregon State college today while
police sought to put a thief be
hind jail bars..
Apparently frightened ny his
act. the thief, aftor cutting the
etching from a frame while on ex
hibition in Kidder hall, abandoned
it at a spot on the cnmpUB where
it was readily seen and recovered
without injury.
John D. Wells, campus police
man who found the etching, said
he had a "good idea" of the iden
tity of the thief.
The etching was brought here
as part of a traveling exhibit of
100 lithogranhs and etchings bo
longing to Lcsslng J. Rosenwald,'
an English collector. J. Leo Fair
banks, head of the college art de
partment, said the work of the
great artist wns priceless.
Presumably tho thief realized
the difficulty lo bo encountered In
attempting to dispose of tho etch
ing nnd decided to abandon it.
How he succeeded in cutting It
from its frame without being de
tected police hod not decided.
The theft followed upon the dis
appearance Severn! weeks ago of
a number of valuable Japanese
prints but unlike the Whistler they
have not been recovered.
