To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

In answer to our conversation I am writing in condemnation of your treacherous article in this morning's CRIMSON. Since Mr. Black stone is away on tour at the present time, the Order's executive committee has asked me to protest for him.

Since the public is loathe to accept our honest efforts, an attack of this sort, while seeming amusing to sophomoric college pranksters, does real harm to our cause. Serying, or crystal gazing as you would call it, is the world's oldest legitimate science back to the great seer Teiresias and the pharaohs of Egypt. To cite one example to you who doubt our integrity Roger Bacon long ago prophesied the advent of the airplane the automobile and many of the other modern conveniences after he had utilized the "crystal ball."

One of the Harvard members of the New England Order of Seryers, who wishes to maintain his anonymity, sent the article I append to this letter. We do not wish to exonerate the victim of your butt, Mr. Friedkin, because we feel, as you must agree, that he has succeeded in nothing other than making a feel of himself and making ridiculous our Order. He is not even a member of the Order and I assure you than after last night's outrage he will never be permitted membership.

I trust that this will end the matter and that you will put an apology in tomorrow's issue of the CRIMSON. Klofnifre van Eup   Secretary-Treasurer,   New England Order of   Seryers.
