Students can't stomach bare-bellied photo, so they swipe newspapers
FRAMINGHAM - Nearly 1,000 copies of the Framingham State College student newspaper were stolen by students embarrassed by the journal's front-page photo of them as bare-bellied FSC lacrosse fans attending a recent home game.

"I guess they were embarrassed about how they looked in the photo," said college spokesman Peter Chisholm.

The color picture, which ran in the April 27 edition of the student newspaper, The Gatepost, shows seven women in tank tops and low-rise shorts standing on bleachers during a women's lacrosse home game. In a show of school spirit, the women had the letters of the name of a woman lacrosse player painted over their stomachs.

But school spirit seemingly faded after someone got a look at the front-page photo, which led some of the FSC students in the photo to swipe close to half the paper's 2,000-copy press run featuring the picture on April 27 and over the following weekend.
