Kirtley F. Mather, professor of Geology, yesterday charged that Boston Herald columnist Bill Cunningham neglected to present Mather's side of a debate with the Reverend Alexander St.-Ivanyi, pastor of the First Church (Unitarian) of Jamaica Plain, in an article which appeared in Sunday's Herald.
Mather stated that he had mailed a letter to St.-Ivanyi Friday, answering a previous letter from St.-Ivanyi which attacked Mather's proposal that Protestant ministers invite Dirk J. Struik, M.I.T. professor of Mathematics, to community gatherings.
Cunningham's article appeared Sunday morning, containing parts of St.-Ivanyi's letter, but leaving out Mather's reply. Cunningham commented yesterday that he had "never seen or heard of the (Mather) letter."
Mather wrote in reply that "one method of educating the general public is to provide for people to become acquainted with their fellow citizens who are erroneously labeled as antagonistic to the American way of life."
