Freshman Wins Girl by Handcuffing Rival and Throwing Key in Subway

Bucklin Climaxes Weeklong Feud By Trapping Worthen

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Benjamin Bucklin '42 discovered a new way of settling competition in an affair of the heart yesterday when he placed Samuel Worthen '42 in handcuffs and threw the key under the subway train at Ashmont.

Having spent a night and a day unable to escape, since Bucklin had "fixed" all the local locksmiths, Worthen was still smiling as he recounted the trials of a life in handcuffs. Eating was his major concern since Mrs. Murry at the Union refused to serve him and restaurants merely called for the paddy wagon when he approached them.

Bucklin, the successful suitor, last night attended the Freshman dance with the girl in question. Still handcuffed, Worthen spent the evening laying plans for a prolonged feud. "I'll get him," he muttered, "If I over get these damn things off."
