Six latter-day Elliot Nesses swooped into the Hasty Pudding Institute of 1776 Saturday at post-game cocktail time to check for under-age drinkers.

The agents--from the ABC (Alchoholics Beverage Control) division of the Massachusetts Liquor Board--wore black raincoats and horn-rimmed glasses. According to Pudding President Gaines Gwathmey '69, the ABC boys came because some unidentified woman complained to them.

No Arrests

No arrests were made. The ABC people did write down the names of all minors drinking. But Gwathmey said that they gave him no indication of what they'd do with the names.

ABC was not in to comment yesterday. The Cambridge Police, however, confirmed that no arrests had been made, because any such arrests would appear in their records.

The police also said that if ABC went in without making arrests, it was "just investigatory work" and "not a raid." Although the Cambridge officers were not informed of the investigation, they did say that even a private club cannot serve minors.

"Good for the Blood"

Even a parent can't serve his own minors, the officer on duty said, although he realized that "like the French people or the Italian people who grow up with a little wine and beer--it's good for the blood."

Meanwhile, no one knows what will come of the incident, "the first in a long time," according to Gwathmey. Presumably, if too many people were served illegally, the club would be forced to close for a while.
