To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

As a subscriber to and student of the CRIMSON, when I can grab it before my son or daughter does, I want to enter a protest and denunciation.

In your issue of January 12, you carried a short review by Gavin Scott of the English film, Lease of Life, in which he makes the egregious error of saying that "no Anglican vicar in all England could possibly have as lovely a daughter as Adrienne Corri," who presumably played the part of a country parson's deserving offspring.

This absurd and nonsensical statement has no basis in fact whatever, and I am morally confident that Gavin Scott has never done any empirical, field investigation of it. As a former parson in the Church of England, I can testify that I have seen many beauties of an optimum standard, sired by C. of E. Clergymen. As a matter of fact, I have one of my own and as a "lovely" I'd stack her up against any Ealing Studio bombshell....
