(Whoops. Ed. was busy enjoying a few of the changes in his favorite magazine when he realized he’d only left himself two-thirds of a page for letters—his favorite section! How unlike Ed.!

Fortunately, CREEM’s famous He’p Desk heard of our dilemma. “Hey, Ed.,’’ they said in manly chorus. “Why not just print insightful excerpts from some of the many fine letters you receive daily? On the stipulation, of course, that you return to your timehonored Ed.-ish policy of printing letters in their entirety next month. ”

“Well, we suppose it beats being forced to print our secret recipe for By Cracky Bars, snack food o’ the stars,” Ed. replied.

“You mean you have the recipe for By Cracky Bars?!?” the He’p Desk said as one.

Whoops.

CREEM DEAD RIGHT,

AS USUAL

I am writing to you in response to your article “I Am The Cheese—The Doors: Dance On Fire (MCA Home Video)” by Dave DiMartino. In the article, Mr. DiMartino said that Jim Morrison, lead singer of the Doors, had “tragically perished in Paris in 1971." Seeing as Jim Morrison’s disappearance is such a controversial subject,

I don’t think it was right to print that comment. His death was never confirmed. I think that Jim Morrison is still alive and I think there are others who would agree with me.
