Hearing on Theft Set for June 23

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The case of the five Cambridge youths who allegedly stole more than $450 in loot from two rooms in the Yard has been postponed until June 23. At this time it will be dismissed if full restitution is made and if the boys have been involved in no further trouble.

Sergeant John J. Grainger of the Cambridge Police Department, when asked about the incident, said: "From talking to these boys I've found that it's common knowledge among high-school students that the Harvard boys in the Yard are pretty careless about leaving rooms unlocked. The temptation puts these high school kids right in the middle," he added.

Matthew J. Toohy, Captain of the University Police, also said that the Freshmen should be "much more careful about locking their doors" and called for better all-round cooperation on the part of students living in the Yard in reporting to their proctors any strangers seen in the dorms soliciting funds, selling magazines, or acting suspiciously.
