Solution to Skeleton Puzzle (February)

LETTERS To the Editor: The committee report of the Division of Chemical Education on Institutes has recently been circulated and, as well, published in THIS JOURNAL.The program offered at the University of Minnesota for the eightweeks period from June 15 to August 7 was omitted in both instances. The reason given for the omission was that three fields-chemistry, physics, and mathematics-were being offered and the committee was reporting only on Institutes with chemistry and one other field. I n effect, the registrant at the Minnesota Institute can take chemistry and only one other area. Thus our program should have been included in the advertising. It is further noted that the committee, in their recently circulated report, stated a need for a program which combined only chemistry and mathematics. We feel that our Minnesota program fills exactly that need. ROBERTC. BRASTED UNIVER~ITY OP MINNESOTA 14 ,. MINNEAPOLIS
