The Mail HARBUS CORRECTION

To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

First, may I thank your reporter Mr. Samuel Z. Goldhaber for accurately quoting me in his February 9 feature story on the HARBUS NEWS.

In three instances. however, Mr. Goldhaber identifies me as chairman of the Publications Board. This is incorrect. I have been a member of that board for two years, but have never served as its chairman. To identify me as such does a disservice to the conscientious work of Mr. Carl F. Allen. Jr. '67. M. B. A. '69. who served as chairman during 1968-1969 and the current chairman. Miss Reslyn F. Braeman. M. B. A. '70.

Mr. Goldhaber also asserts that "it is no secret" that Mr. Wil Stevens being a black student was ultimately a deciding plus" in the Publication Board's decision to award his group the current HARBUS franchise. This statement is absurd. As a member of the Publications Board during the period when the current franchise was let and one who participated in all board discussions concerning that decision. I will swear under oath that Mr. Stevens' color had nothing whatsoever to do with the matter.
