Bawl Street
This year's Bawl Street Journal, annual Manhattan Bond Club parody of the marmoreal Wall Street Journal, tried hard last week to keep its cracks aimed below Canal Street. But its 14,000 Wall Street-wise chuckled most over an advertisement which read: "DEAL WITH US: No Restrictions, No Holds Barred, No Legal Opinions, No Balance Sheet, No Income Account: U. S. GOV'T BOND DEPARTMENT."
