[PEN-L:1664] Re: treatment of James Craven

[Rosser Jr, John Barkley]

Ajit,
     You may be right.  But, I figure every little bit

a lot of directions.
     The report that the Chronicle of Higher Education is 
getting interested in Jim's case is the best news I've 
heard so far on this unfortunate matter.
