...Postal Service (Holt, Rinehart & Winston; $5). In Manhattan for an author's luncheon, Summerfield admitted that his favorite game is Post Office, proved that he is still an addressee at heart. Said he wryly: "It's difficult to explain why a piece of mail-a letter, a postcard-has not been delivered in due time.

Although the N.D.E.A. is an obvious student issue, mail from students has been negligible.

Thanks to the Committee's postcard idea, every student in the College can make his position clear to those who count...
