To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

Yesterday's edition contained a letter by an editor of the Daily Princetonian asking about Harvard's "big men on Campus." At the letter's end you commented that "Harvard has no Campus." This snide remark simply points out a serious failing--the College has no strong leadership and thus no big men on Campus.

But it is sad when a college that is supposed to produce leaders has none of its own. This must be reinodied. Secret societies should be encouraged. Class presidents and team captains should receive the honor that they deserve. Special courses for politicians and party bosses should be formed. Libraries should display books on popularity. Harvard must organize. B. Matthew Olin Caldwell '55
