This letter is in reference to your article of Oct. 31 in The Times, I am a 1951 Tech graduate. If you publigh this letter (and I hope you will), I am quite sure none of the Tech teachers or English instructors will be insulted. I might add. for the benefit of any who read this letter, that vou are not being criticized by a “flunky.” but by a person who was.awarded several scholarships, thanks to Tech. You gav vou have given Tech football team twice as much space as any other team in the state. I
can only remark that these other |
teams are very lucky to have escaped -your pessimistic, shallow criticisms. You also talked about Teil present administrative policy. Will you please enlighten vour readers instead of confusing them with adjectives” Before I close this seemingly one-sided letter, I should like to praise you for absolving Norm {Wilson).
