It is greatly to be regretted that Dr. Sargent has found it necessary to close the Trophy Room because of the act of vandalism reported in another column. Undergraduates have always valued the many trophies and photographs which commemorate Harvard's victories and call to mind the men who in the past have represented Harvard in athletics.
That any one should rob the University of one of these mementoes seems incredible. No punishment or disgrace can be too severe for the person who does so.
It is to be hoped that when the addition to the Gymnasium is completed, a custodian of the trophies will be appointed and that the Trophy Room will then be opened again.
