SIR,- --Many of your readers must have deplored Dr. Leavis's unwarranted

and unsolicited attack on Sir Charles Snow, and your own lack of good taste in Publishing it.

In order that such a vicious attack upon a sub- itantial public figure may receive a public answer may I, through your columns, .offer Sir Charles the hospitality of the Mermaid Theatre on any Sunday evening during the next six months.
