Sir,-It' seems hardly necessary to defend R.W.C. from your correspondent "Had It." The type. of crossword puzzle he desires can be found in most daily papers and magazines. R.W.C. provides us with something different and infinitely more entertaining. It is really a reflection on the general standard of education in New Zealand to assert that The Listener puzzles are too difficult. R.W.C,’s clues, though tricky, are always legitimate, and often very amusing, I hope she will not be prevailed upon by "Had It’s" criticism to alter her style.
