'BRITISH' COLUMBIANS
SIR,—Your issue of July 8. received today, has me completely 'burned up.'
Your 'Portrait of the Week' tells your readers that 'Henley provided its now expected number of Russian and American victories.'
As, in fact, our British Columbia eight very decisively beat the Russian eight, we are left with three possible explanations of your re- marks: I. You were not at Henley and do not read the papers, so do not know what is going'on.
2. British Columbians are classed, in your thinking, as Americans.
3. You went to press before Henley took place and indulged in some (not so) intelligent guessing.
Whatever the explanation, Sir, I regret that you have thus given me cause to doubt your accuracy, and hope that correction will be made at the first opportunity.—Yours faith- fully,
BARRY GIRLINO
2612 Western Avenue, North Vancouver, BC, Canada
