...Yankees have been a different story because of one man--you guessed it--George Steinbrenner. George has played havoc with an essentially magnificent team, firing manager Bob Lemon after a 5-7 start and ranting and raving to no end about the club's poor performance. Beset by dissension, too many player moves, and a severe power shortage (they are tied for last in the league in homeruns, and sorely miss the California-gone Reggie) the Yanks have stunk up New York with an 11-16 start and are fast losing crowds to the resurgent Mets.

In other words, HRE officials have taken the posture of the crafty used car salesman who tells his customer attempting to return a lemon: If you don't like it, sue me. Unfortunately for tenants, who have nowhere near the financial resources necessary to combat Harvard's stable of lawyers, fighting the University in court is like going on safari holding a rifle filled with blanks. You can shoot all you want and still...
