It is rumored that next year the Cambridge authorities will make an attempt to go still further in the taxation of the University property.

Recently the Foxcroft Club was taxed for the first time, and now it is said that the University dormitories and Memorial Hall are to be assessed. If this question should be raised, it can be settled only by a long and expensive legal contest.
