AN UNHAPPY EVENT
Sir.-My son, aged 13 years, always listens with interest to the BBC News and Radio Newsreel. Imagine my surprise when he asked me what a miscarriage was, as Miss Marilyn Monroe had had one. Yes, she was in hospital, following a miscarriage and an operation, a performance hundreds of women go through. I have had three miscar-
riages, but I haven’t heard it over the BBC. Well, it took a mighty lot of explaining to my son.
