Police Jail Students For Illegal Drinking

One Radcliffe and two Harvard students spent a night in jail Saturday following an "after-hours" raid upon a "home-made" basement tavern in Roxbury by police.

The three were arrested for "drunkenness" along with ten others seized in the bar, reportedly built and run by a local carpenter. Twelve Roxbury policemen, including six "special squad members," took part in the raid.

During the confusion, one of the non-Harvard customers attempted to batter two policemen with a coffee-pot, successfully sending one of the officers to the hospital.
