Is Taking It Theft?

Question

I live in the dormitory as part of the ulpana, and the girls who studied here last year left us “souvenirs” in the closets: clothes, bedding, socks, etc. They already finished at the ulpana, but they didn’t bother clearing out their things, and it’s obvious the items were forgotten. One of the girls in the current room took a liking to a dress that was left behind by the previous girls, and I wanted to ask whether we need to make an effort to locate the owner of the dress. Or perhaps it is her responsibility, and since she didn’t come back to take it, the items are ownerless? It should be noted that the ulpana collected the items from the dorms at the end of last year, photographed them, and made it clear that whoever did not take their belongings would have them thrown away. But for some reason they apparently did not notice these items (which did not appear in the photo).
 

Answer

If the ulpana announced it and they didn’t come to collect them, it is reasonable to assume there was abandonment of hope. One may take them after such abandonment. Still, if it is not very difficult to locate the owner of the dress, it would be proper to try and do so beyond the strict letter of the law, especially if it is an expensive dress.
