To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

"To mention one of many examples, there has been an appalling growth of illiteracy at all levels, even in the graduate school. At every commencement one wonders how many of the hordes of new bachelors of arts can speak and write their own language with elementary decency. . . ."--Douglas Bush in the New York Times Magazine, January 9, 1955.

"Bush . . . later said he was 'definitely not talking about Harvard.'"--The Harvard CRIMSON, January 10, 1955.

"Giedion is a man with 'flery interest in the principals of modern architecture,'" said Kletzch.--The Harvard CRIMSON, January 13, 1955.
