LETTER T O THE EDITOR My dear Mr. Ebel: Kindly notice that formality. Mm looking through MY LAW BOOKS FOR THE CORRECT FORM TO USE IN SUING YOU FOR LIBEL. *N your Newsletter of November 1st you refer to me as “The inimical Waldo Abbot of Michigan.” According to Webster 9 s Dictionary, the word inimical is defined as “unfriendly, hostile, having the disposition of an enemy, antagonistic." This statement of yours has done great damage and injury to me on the University campus which will give me ample opportunity to prove damages, unless satisfactory apologies are forthcoming. I should know that an engineer shouldn 4 t be expected to look up defini¬ tions of words. Outside of this one error, congratulations on the Newsletter and your new job. !t is my intention to call you worse things sometime in the future. Cordially yours, Waldo Abbot (£ditor’s note: I object. The author of all but one item in the last News Letter was hizzhonor the president. You should know that words like that are just not found in an engineers vocabulary.
