To the Editor of the CRIMSON

Your article on my Murder address, (Editorial entitled "The Deadly Statistic". Tuesday, April 1), before the Forum, is a pitiful reflection of the low standard of true education which is being disseminated by Harvard and other universities who look flippantly at life and its duties, and consider the function of education to be merely of adding to the gayety of nations. What purpose you can serve by such silly observations passes the understanding of one who is, happily free from the pernicious influences of a vapid university atmosphere Fortunately, no one taxes Harvard seriously these days, and as the old saying goes. "You can always fell a Harvard man but you can not fell him much." F. L. Hoffman   Dean of Advanced Department   Babson Institute
