NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Harvard Indifference" was proven early yesterday morning when residents of Gore Hall, Winthrop House, failed to notice the anguish of two young Cambridge women who were rolled in sheets in the court, tired, hungry, and cold.

When Miss Jane Martin and Miss Florence Levy failed to reach their homes by 9 o'clock Tuesday night, their parents notified the Cambridge police.

The two had wended their way to Winthrop House, whose windows shone warm and cozy. By midnight the windows had begun to darken and the girls began to realize that there was little hope.

Jane and Florence were both eight years old.
