REFERENDUM

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

In your brief story on the results of the recent Vietnam Referendum, a blanket statement is made about "the Harvard students and Faculty members who organized the Referendum" being "particularly surprised by the dovish stance of students at Emmanuel College ..." This particular participant was not at all surprised, and is inclined to regard this surprise itself as based on inexperience, perhaps snobbery. Emmanuel College students have been at discussions of disarmament and peace in this area (as well as active on the race front), apparently with more pertinacity than local visibility.
