Prefrontal Lobotomy

To the Editor of the CRIMSON:

Last year when I went to the Hygiene Department for a routine excuse from physical training, I was stealthily given some sort of sleep drug. Later, I discovered that while I was unconscious the doctors had, without my permission or extra charge, performed a radical prefrontal lobotomy on me, Specialists that I have visited since (at $25 a visit) have advised me that the Hygiene Department did wrong. I do not think so. Ever since the operation, I've led a happier, more contented existence. Nothing worries me; my roommates love me. My grades also have improved markedly.

Pm sure the student body (with and without medical training) should know about their splendid Hygiene Department and my good fortune. Name Withheld by Request
