FROM THE TABLES DOWN AT MORY'S

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

Concerning the piece in your issue of Nov. 21 under the heading "The Greening of Yale," by a Mr. Kinsley. What can I say? I read it with such deep regret. The author's attitude must surely represent a Harvard equivalent of all the "Old Yale" chauvinisms which now seem so distasteful to most of us. And it was so very petty. A personal attach against Mr. Brewster. A pointless and absurd attempt to characterize the Yale faculty's intellectual contributions in terms of "Love Story" and Mr. Reich's recent tract, "The Greening of America" In short, a published ego trip where. in Mr. Kinsley indulges his vendetta against Yale in a manner which does not flatter the CRIMSON.

To be blunt, I am embarrassed for you Certainly there's room for constructive criticism of Yale- as well as of Harvard. But the best "revenge" the Yalie Daily could have against you for that article would be to reprint its full text in their next issue. David L. Miller, Yale '73
