MAILER VS. TORRES

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

Jesse Kornbluth's piece in the Harvard CRIMSON was most generous and succeeded in making me look dramatic to myself, no small intoxication when you're my age. It pains me, therefore, to be forced to make one correction. I did not, unfortunately, box ten rounds with Jose Torres. It was rather--I whisper it--three rounds, and I was considerably tired at the end, although in no danger because Torres is a fine friend and took great care of me. In fact, I might have been in more trouble going two with my sister.

This historical error corrected, let me give a few more good clean cheers for Kornbluth, Harvard, Advocate, CRIMSON, and gang. Norman Mailer'43
