Council Fails To Take
Action At Meeting
Today
Alibis Established
No new developments have
cleared the mystery of the Spen
cer hall robbery last Sunday aft
ernoon, it was reported yester
day by Miss Nancy Nesbit, who,
as president of the woman's
council, is in charge of the in
vestigation. The exact procedure which
will be used to investigate the
robbery is, as yet, undeter
mined. Although the woman's
council met yesterday after
noon, the subject of main dis
cussion was the Spencer hall
dance Friday night. No action
on the robbery was taken.
Alibis
By this time every coed. has
been able to establish an accept
able alibi. Monday night it was
revealed that the council "had
several suspects in mind, but
these have been absolved, it was
said yesterday.
Those in charge of the inves
tigation feel that, although each
Spencer resident seems to have
presented an airtight account of
her whereabouts during the din
ner hour last Sunday, there" is
a strong possibility that the rob
bery was committed by some
one living in the dormitory. -
As there were many visitors
in Spencer hall Sunday after
noon, it cannot be determined
positively that the authors of
the crime were residents.

bery occurred in. Spencer hall,
all residents were quizzed under
