To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

We must have been mistaken. Evening chimes have not been unknown to us and so we pardonably believed we knew of the slow and gracious beauty of bells rung for the beauty of their ringing. Our experience, we find, was limited. We are now to hear bells we have never heard before, and their din of Slavic tunes from a staid Georgian tower is to set at nought our thought of chimes to delight or console. Yes, we were mistaken, doubtless. (Name withheld by request.)
