OG AND CP Explores Cambridge Dump For Lost Papers

By M. DAVID Landau

The Office of Graduate and Career Plans (OG AND CP) notified 25 students last Friday "with regret and embarrassment" that files containing their applications for Knox, Shaw, and Sheldon fellowships had been lost.

John B. Fox '59. OG AND CP director, said yesterday however, that "no permanent damage ?? been done."

Fox explained that the files-bundled in two packages on a desk of a locked room in the OG AND CP-were mistakenly removed by a cleaner late Wednesday night. "The cleaner is the only other man who has a key," Fox said.

City Dump

After sifting through the Cambridge dump with two City bulldozers and four University groundsmen for three hours Thursday afternoon, Fox gave the files up for lost.

OG AND CP officials, House offices, and fellowship candidates are now in the process of restoring the lost files.

"Considering my attitudes toward the Harvard bureaucracy, a lost file is something I delight in," Terrence W. Flanagan '70, one of the fellowship candidates, said yesterday.
