Your headline, "Professor Thomas Scores Narrators of Events forDistorting the Popular Mind: RecitesVast Harm Done by Careless Historians," is inaccurate. I was careful toexplain that my remarks implied nocritism of the historian: that the operation of the "folk-mind" renderedthe task of the historian more difficult.but that he was a person more capable than myself of handling the situation thus rendered more difficult,2. V this headline and the openingsentence 'of your notice, "Historians,past and present. came in for a severearraignment for distorting the folkmind." mean anything. I am unable tosee it. "The folk-mind" may be anunfortunate term. but at any rate Iwas careful to explain that it is thething which does the distorting, notthe thing distorted.3. Your report makes no seriousattempt to reproduce the central argument of the lecture. but plays upsome tr-ivial details, thus imitating themethods of the professionally yellowjournals.4. Substantially this same reportwas used simultaneously. with. I believe, only one additional touch of yellow. by a Chicago daily paper. whichcertainly would not have found itavailable if it had been a fair report.\V. I.

Wisconsin couldwin easily with the services of Molland Osthoff and a week's more development, but at present the chancesfor an Indiana victory are very bright.Moll has not played with the teamenough to risk his presence throughthe entire contest. Osthoff is in thehospital. Indiana, on the other hand,is at the height of its development.The team is the strongest in yearsfrom the Bloomington town.
