Coed Dorm Search Made 'By Consent, For Protection' Jane McMaster, president of the Woman's association, explained yes terday that a search through dormi tory No. 1 Monday night to recover several recently-stolen articles was made "for the protection, of the girls and. with their consent." The investigation, conducted while all the girls in the dormitory waited in the lounge from 10:30 to 12 o'clock, was caused directly by the theft of a watch belonging to a resident, she said. Clothing and money have been stolen at various times both thk quar ter and last. Nothing Recovered None of the stolen articles were re covered Monday night. Mary Sue Robertson, president of the dormitory, questioned the Wom an's council about the problem re cently and the search was approved. Permission was obtained from Mrs. M. H. Stacy, dean of women, and R B. House, dean of administration. Sentries were posted at each end of the living room while the investigation was conducted for an hour and a half, after which the girls were individually searched. Criticism arose from the action be cause it was considered unjustified, ill-timed, and an infringement on rights implied in the honor code. Miss McMaster pointed out that similar searches have been conducted in the past without objections, that the girls themselves voted for the in vestigation, that it was considered the only thing to do in an effort to stop the series of petty thefts. Registration Note! Dean C. P. Spruill issued a plea with a touch of steel in it yesterday for all general college students to "be sure to register" today. - -osseison, sergeant-at-erms.
