CAMBRIDGE, Mass, June 9.— Otto C. Yens, a Harvard student, entered the Harvard square police station early today dragging the footboard of an iron bed. His arms had been thrust through openings in the metal stocks and he had then been handcuffed. He said three students had trussed him up in a room in Randolph Hall, a “gold coast” dormitory where wealthy students live, and he had freed himself by wrenching the footboard from its moorings. All the handcuff keys in the st tion were tried out and failed. Finally Yens was relieved of part of his burden through the use of a hacksaw. It was nearly five hours later that a key to fit the handcuffs was found in the room of one of the students named by Yens. The police later learned the rest of the story. Yens, they were told, had suffered punishment for “double-crossing"” hix three college mates. He had heard them make arrangements to go to the South Station in Boston to say good-bye to two Smith Colle girls who were leaving Northampton. . the police were told, ar- ranged to take the girls back to their college in his automobile. for ‘THE SUNDAY -STAR, WASHINGTON, -D..-C., JUNE 10, 1923—PART T.
