Hartnett, according to the club archives, rented a farmhouse on the old Bos- ton post road here and moved in everything but a baby grand and beds, stolen from Sharon, Westwood and this itown.

A three-decker, one-gallon- German beer stein, reported to the police as having been Etolen from Sharon, contributed to the undoing of four Knight Hawks. They gave it too prominent a location in the dining room; It was seen by Chief Joseph Dean of this town and It led to a raid last night.
