The perpetrator of Claverly's most recent robbery was seen by a visitor, spending the night in Room 43, at 3.30 yesterday morning in the process of emptying a pocket-book of its contents. The visitor however, believed the thief to be a friend hunting for cigarettes.
The thief entered all unlocked suites, but went no further than the studies. He took nothing but money; and that in sums varying from 30 cents to $30. Out of 26 rooms entered, the robber collected over $100.
A CRIMSON investigator by cross examining the janitor found that the greatest disturbance took place in room 43, where two visitors were spending the night. These men occupied the window seat in the study. Across the hall, a friend was still studying at a late hour consequently, when one of the guests was awaked by a man fumbling in a coat pocket, he believed the burglar to be this friend hunting for a cigarette, and did not trouble himself further. The culprit was described by the visitor as a dark man, 5 feet 9 inches in height, wearing a light cap and a dark overcoat. He also added that on the way out he heard the robber saying "46 and 47 next" to an accomplice in the hall. This has been the cause of many theories as to the nature of the robbery.
In two rooms the thief missed some good hauls. One student had two pocket books, one containing $20 and the other $2. The burglar finding the $2 moved on to the next room. Another who had 75 cents in one pocket and $10 in another escaped as easily as his neighbor.
