To the Editors of the CRIMSON:

It is unfortunate that the CRIMSON elected to publish my title as an assistant dean of the Faculty of Medicine in identifying the staff of Rap-Up. I volunteered my services to Hiller B. Zobel '53, the editor. He served on the CRIMSON with me and is a long-time friend. I am working on my time--and my family's--as a very "concerned alumnus." In the same manner I also serve as co-chairman of the Harvard Club of Boston School and Scholarship Committee. None of these activities in support of Harvard have anything to do with my decanal duties at the Medical School. Administrative officers, like Faculty, are free to do their own thing. Bayley F.
