Whiskey

The Boston professional hockey team was returning from Quebec in its special car. At the border custom officers boarded the train; were shocked to find 20 quarts of whiskey concealed in the athletes' luggage. The contraband liquor was seized; fines of five dollars per bottle imposed; reprimands administered. Just as the culprits were about to be sent on their way, further search of the car revealed 65 additional bottles hidden in a linen closet. The car was detached from the train; the entire team detained in Richford, Vt.
