J. W. Gaddy Discovers Burglary;
Clothing, Money And Other
Articles Missed
A friendly shout of "Hi, brother,"
by a visitor at the Kappa Sigma house
late Friday night when returning from \
the Damas ball showed that it was a
burglar instead of a friend whom he
was speaking to, when the addressed
bolted through the back door.
J- W. Gaddy of Dillon, the visitor,
proceeded to his room, only to discover
that all the brothers were
asleep, and upon awakening them,
they discovered that five suits, a suitcase
full of clothes, two wallets containing
$38, two Kappa Sigma fraternity
pins, three Elgin watches, and
several pairs of trousers had disappeared.
The police were called immediately,
and after a thorough search, four pairs
of shoes were found in a pile dumped
in a far corner of the adjoining yard.
None of the other articles have been
recovered, but police are still working
on the case.
Although the front door was left
open the night of the Damas, the
burglar preferred breaking the latch of
the back door and thus gained entrance.
