To the Editor:

    Although the biology is clear, the history is a hopeless muddle " Before the dams cut them off, he said, the alewives arrived each spring as “slash and burn” predators on the planktonic life in the lake. " can't be right. Since the dam, there are no anodramous alewives in Rogers lake. And before the dam, there was no Rogers lake; it was just Mill Brook.
