BOOTLEGGERS ADAMANT IN DEMAND FOR CASH BUYING

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Although almost all the merchants in Harvard Square are advertising today that they will extend credit and honor checks when presented with Bursar's card, the bootleggers in the vicinity demand honest-to-goodness money. The H.A.A. has announced that they will take checks for tickets for the hockey game with Yale tonight, but seven out of ten "importers and exporters" refused to supply beverages for checks. They seemed to oppose it on the grounds that it was not straightforward business. Three local dispensers were even willing to have charge accounts opened, although insisting on a personal interview first.
