Free Lesson in Malang Jam Take plenty of tired working men and women at about half past five or six in the evening. Mix in a few cranky women, several men trying to live up to their reputation as football players by keeping in constant practice; add many bundles, boxes, and umbrellas; flavor with irregular car service and a long wait, and you have an excellent jam — at Harvard Square Station.
