'Soak-the-Rich' Policy Pays Off, Dean Says

"Room rents will be down, down, down," Dean Robert Hall announced last week over WHRB, "but values will be up, up, up." Robertino, as he is known to his many friends the CRIMSON learned recently, said, "Harvard's soak-the-rich policy has finally paid off. Dividends right across the board, Yessiree!"

Robert smiled knowingly as he announced that he had "another" big surprise "up his sleeve" for undergraduates. "The biddies will be back next Fall," the Dean said, adding that he felt sorry for the HSA, "with all those student porters to employ."

Comments ranged from "Excelsior!" to "Pshaw." One high-ranking Administration flunkey said only, "Plunk yore magic twanger, Froggie."
