The baseball and basketball trophies were taken from the case and hurled up and down the corridor. They lay strewn around in bits and pieces when Mrs. Elizabeth Jacobs reported for work Monday morn ing and discoveredthedestruo tion. A window in the library was broken and books had been thrown through the gaping hole onto the lawn outside. Files and papers in the principal’s office had been ransacked and flung aimlessly on the floor.
