THE FLOWERY SIDE

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

I hope Frosch in his bright piece on the communication breakdown between the aged and those on the flowery side of thirty (It used to be twenty-five!) has the universals he hints at clearly in mind.

They are: 1. Nuclear incineration for all of us, 2. drowning in the population niagara, or 3. choking in the filth of our own ecxrements-gases, noises, DDT, fall-out and other pollutions.

Perhaps what we are witnessing is a kind of social sohizophrenia in which the one-half of society turns on the over-thirty half because, like cornered creatures who tear at themselves in a frenzy of frustration, the under-thirties realize only too keenly that mankind has just about had it.

Is all Frosch going to do about it to bewail it? Herbert.L.Harris
