Police Grab 'Townies' In Fracas at Leverett

Ten Cambridge patrolmen closed in on Leverett J-43 shortly before 2 a.m. this morning in answer to a frantic call from the building's night watchman. Eight invading "townies" had threatened an occupant of the room, and had been "tearing it apart" for nearly an hour, he reported later.

Inside J-43, the cops found bodies of seven non-residents crammed under beds and behind doors. The eighth apparently knocked out the screen, and escaped to Leverett's roof. Questioning produced only that the group had heard "there was a party" in the House. With the eighth still on the roof, the squad herded the other bashful seven into Cambridge's Black Maria on charges of "trespassing."
