UNIVERSITY MAY GET BEER PERMIT FOR DINING HALLS

Licensed beer sale still appears possible at Harvard, if the University will apply for a permit. Since the University has not yet requested a license, there has been no study of the technicalities involved, according to John E. Quinn, chairman of the Cambridge License Commission.

A fortnight ago plans for the sale were considered at a meeting of the House Masters. It was understood at the time that University authorities had applied for a permit to sell the beverage, information which later proved groundless.

A legal provision that only one license could be granted to a single corporation, an obstacle previously raised to beer sale at Harvard, would not necessarily deprive Harvard of beer. Since all the dining halls are grouped around a central area, one license would serve for the seven Houses.
