Bernard Kelley (S) Netda Fralieh (S) Arthur Rosfeld (L) Jo Waterhouse (L) Wave Of Thefts Reported In Dorms And Rec Hall . An. increased wave of thefts in dormitories, hallways, and in Rec hall has been reported by Capt. Philip Mark of the campus pa trol. “More than 80 dollars has been stolen from rooms in Hamilton hall in the past few days,” said Mark. “And it always happens when a student goes to wash up up and leaves his room unlocked. The money is lifted from the wallet by someone who obviously must be watching for his chance.” Money is taken and the wallet is usually left in the room, ac cording to Mark. There have been no thefts from locked rooms. Mark also noted that expensive coats have been stolen from hall ways. “The cheap ones are never touched,” he said. , In Rec hall, money and valu ables have been taken from lock ers while students are in the shower room. “The only way to prevent this sort of thing is for each student' to make certain to have his locker locked regardless of how short a time he intends to be away,” said Mark “Every year around the .holi days the crime rate picks up,” continued Mark. “Fraternity thefts have not gone up yet but they usually do about this time. The only thing which will reduce the rate of thefts is increased watchfulness and carefulness on the part of each student.” Vet Enrollment Shows Big Drop Veteran enrollment at the Col lege has declined from 63.8 per cent of the student body three years ago to 28.26 per cent of th'e enrollment this semester, Dr. C.
