ROOSEVELT PLAQUE IS FOUND AFTER BRIEF DISAPPEARANCE

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Suddenly absent from its accustomed vantage point on the clapboard of a 38 Winthrop Street house, the bronze plaque proclaiming the place as the former dormitory of President Theodore Roosevelt '80 was again located yesterday after a search among various University departments.

Assistant Comptroller E. S. Emery '28 stated, upon being interviewed, that the bronze tablet has been temporarily removed to safe quarters while the buildings on and around Winthrop Street were being razed to make room for the projected Freshman athletic plant. It will be replaced in all probability upon the new structure to be erected on the site. The plaque states upon it "here lived Theodore Roosevelt during four formative and fruitful years as a member of Harvard College, 1876 to 1880."
