A small fire started in the trunk room of Claverly Hall yesterday morning about 8.30 o'clock, but by means of the dormitory hose it was practically extinguished when the Cambridge fire department arrived. The damage is estimated at about $200 to $250, covered by insurance, besides a few trunks on which there was no insurance. The quick discovery of the fire and the effective use of the hall apparatus prevented further damage.
It is probable that a smouldering cigarette was left in the reading room, and was carried into the trunk room with the papers and trash that are stored there.
