They, up at Harvard, were sucking in millions of taxpayers' dollars from Uncle Sam during wartime for University expansion, but they didn't give a hoot about providing their student population with dormitories and/or housing facilities. Only under Vellucci pressure did they finally enbark upon a program to build housing for students and faculty. But that was after they had caused a serious crisis in the Cambridge housing market. That was right after World...
...continued to exert pressure on the Harvard Corporation to share the problems and responsibilities of providing people with housing with the City of Cambridge. They, Harvard and M.I.T., were forced to get into the Cambridge housing act. Both of those Universities built about 1,000 apartments for Cambridge elderly. It is said that I, as a City Councilor, suggested that Harvard Yard be paved and turned into a parking lot. Again, the Harvard Corporation responded to pressure by creating a parking lot across the Charles at the Harvard Business School and using a shuttle bus service...
...while seving as Mayor, I dared look into the Harvard bio-lab to see what the scientists were doing in DNA research. I gave them a plain case of diarrhea.

Before you know it these young "virgin people" are beginning to talk and act like...
...running for re-election to the City Council, and I'm entering my 30 years of service as school committeeman, councilor and twice mayor. Will the big brass and corporation vote for me on election day? Never! They'd dance in Harvard Yard with joy if I lost the election. I think President Bok would go on a "toot" for a week if I lost, I think the "nobel" scientists would drink DNA if I were no longer a councilor. I know that I will be re-elected on November 6 and when I am, I will toast them...
