To the Editors of The Crimson:

As one of those opposing U.S. defiance of the United Nations sanctions against Rhodesia, I read with interest "A Rhodesian Remembers" (Crimson, March 13, 1974). Michael Massing's article was a good overview of this complex life-and-death struggle, with one glaring exception. Mr. Massing referred to Eddison Zvobgo, Deputy General Secretary of the Zimbabe African Nationalist Union (ZANU), merely as "Eddison." If the omission of Mr. Zvogbo's surname was not a typographical error, it is probably one of those "unintentional" slights so typical of how non-white people are commonly treated by whites. I would hope that this small but important error in an other wise fine article be rectified. Thank you. Patrick Farren   American Friends Service Committee
