MARY ELIZABETH OLDACRE

Reader Oldacre is certainly
right about the need to talk
back. We are swampcd with let
ters about Professor Walters ar
ticle. The opinions are 50 good
and 80 numerous that il is physi-
calIy impossible to give fair

them for thorough analysis and
hope to have articles based on
them in future issues.
Meanwhile. thanks to all read

for his courage in opening up
the topic for debate.
