To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
I was discouraged in all the stories I read on Derek Bok to find no references to the fact that he is the son of a very distinguished mother, Nellie Lee Bok, as well as a distinguished father. Also, his wife is the daughter of Alva Myrdal, a very distinguished woman in her own right. Why are fathers automatically more worth mention in the news than mothers-particularly when they are so well known?
