LITERATURE AND WEA LECTURERS SIR,—Mr. Davie's pleasant and disarming ex-
planation of what he intended in his remarks about British Council and WEA lecturers is entirely satisfying.
Perhaps in my turn I should apologise for the note of asperity in my challenge to him. I was, as I hope it was evident, touched on a point of professional pride, being employed as a full-time organiser and tutor of WEA classes; and was perhaps rather over-ready to see an insult where none was intended.
It is enjoyable, though rather frightening, for my colleagues and myself to be promoted to the status of significant legendary figures; I hope this winter that none of us is thereby tempted to assume this mantle to frequently, to give oracular weight to our critical pronouncements.—Yours faithfully,
JOHN LEVITT.
